Move over Marky Mark

Every now and then, I get a strong feeling about something, and I just *know* it’s going to be popular. Lately, it’s been happening a lot with music, but it’s also happened with other trends. Of course, I could say anything and there’d be no way to prove it, so I’m going to keep quiet about my past successes. (I mis-called pipes, though — I thought after Gandalf, they’d be huge.)

My latest feeling is sartorial in nature: I think those Euro-style undershorts are the hot new thing, and boxer briefs are the new passé.

Also called “army trunks,” I bought some on a whim, and I’m sold. They’re stylish and comfortable. They make boxer briefs feel like grandad’s undies.

I am absolutely not going to include a picture, because I didn’t find something perfect right away and I can’t stand Googling for men’s underwear any longer. Gigantic packages! Enormous ripped abs! In close-up! It’s obviously designed for, um, male perusal.

But I don’t need to see anyone’s funky bunch, if you know what I mean.

PS. Men’s style is not going to be a regular thing here on Absurd Intellectual. Try A Continuous Lean for that stuff.
