Underpants Shopping Buffer Zone Interlopers

Post by New Pagodi »

So yesterday I decided it was probably best to look into upgrading part of the rotation. I get to the store and walk to the pharmacy to pick up enough stuff to fill the top of the basket (and that I also needed) and then make the long walk back to the men’s department. Once I got to the rack, it took me a few minutes to find the size and style I was looking for; but no sooner had I done so than some woman rolled her cart up and stood right next to me. I was hoping to look through the packs to see if I could find one where I liked all of the pairs in it, but I didn’t feel comfortable pawing through piles of underwear with someone else looking on a few feet away. I tried to give her a quick “can I have a few feet here” glance, but she just looked back like I was in her way or something. So I just grabbed the pack in front and ran away. Naturally, I’m not really thrilled with two of them. To quote George Costanza, “You know we're living in a society!” For God’s sake, give others some space when needed.

Quality rant. I won't buy underwear if there's anyone within 10 feet of me. If someone enters the buffer zone I'll walk away, pretend to look at other clothes, then return when they've gone.

Hmm...I don't have any shame in this department.

Just pick out the store's finest leopard-skin thong and scream "FINALLY!!".

Problem solved.

If people are watching you buy underwear, it means they are judging you. Wearing underwear is shameful.

I don't see the problem. I need underwear. Everyone needs underwear. Who cares if somebody sees me?

I think once I got over buying condoms in public, underwear became small potatoes.

I feel your pain in a metaphysical way, my man.

But I don't wear underwear.

Any man who doesn't wear underwear must not own any pants with zippers.

Why are you all ashamed of your underwear? Be proud of what hides your privates.
