My family decided we needed to have "a talk" today

“Dad,” my daughter started “Mom and I have been talking about we really think it’s time...it’s time...for you to either change those shorts or at least wash them”

😁

These shorts are really swimming trunks with the safety net cut out. I can knock this out during my next shower.

A two-fer. BONUS!

No Pants Wednesday, unless one of us does some laundry today. It ain't gonna be me cuz both the darling kitties are blissfully dozing on top of my comfy heated throw as we all snuggle up on the recliner.

But there was this one time at a country hardware store and was going towards an older employee for help and he headed me off, yelling to another employee, "Joe, can you help the man in the swimming suit?!1"

I think I've had swimming trunks for 20 years. With pockets and such. Look like regular shorts.
Easy to wash and dry.



I used "safety net" as an alternative to "support structure" or "man hammock".

And when I go to the doctor.

That's pretty much it.

Not really a believer in the concept.
