Mystery Solved, I Think.

I do watch some of the games on that channel. I think that that makes perfect sense. That's definitely where he heard it. I have seen several sci-fi movies where creatures from other worlds have learned all about Earthlings by listening to the tv for a day or two. Makes alot of sense.

The first thing that I thought of when you said your grandson was going "commando" was that he was going to dress in fatigues, do the paint thing on his face and go from there... It didn't dawn on me that it was going without underwear!!! It is fun to watch in public, you can tell the ones who have gone commando and those who haven't. Suddenly you'll see a man jerk and frantically adjust himself. I'm sure no one dropped a live king crab down his pants!!! My ex decided to go "commando" when he was in the military. I wasn't married to him then otherwise I would really have destroyed his ego by laughing at him constantly. It was bad enough on our wedding night when he undressed and was wearing size 50 boxer shorts and he was a size 32! He looked like he was wearing a skirt...and of course the feeling person I was I pointed and laughed, I finally got myself under control then he took the hem of his shorts in his fingers and curtsied. It took me two days to control myself. Anyhow, back to the commando. It lasted all of two hours. It was that long because the first thing he did was zip a very important member of his anatomy in the zipper of his pants! He stood in his quarters debating whether to go to the ER or to unzip himself. That was decided when he tried to take the first step...after an hour and 45 minutes of pain he finally bit the bullet so to speak and unzipped his pants himself. He had the imprint of the zipper on his anatomy for several weeks...it also turned black and blue. He was really lucky that he didn't have a physical scheduled. I still giggle about it to this day, over 40 years later!!! You might use my ex as an example to your grandson about the hazards of going commando.

I do not watch the program. But, have enjoyed watching it in the past. Many of my clients watch it and I happen to see some of the show. Laugh my butt off somedays.

Hi AL! Don't feel too bad. I didn't know what "going commando" meant until a few years ago. One day my girlfriend told be she was "going commando" and I asked her what she was talking about. When she told me I just looked at her like she was crazy! I thought that it was kind of gross personally, but found out that it was alot more popular that I would have imagined! For me, I prefer to wear undies!

So that's where he got it..lol. I have watched the game show channel before and they do show a ton of reruns.

I heard that on Family Feud once. I also heard it referenced on the TV show Friends.

hi antiquelady wow well I learned what it m eant fromn several younger my lotters. they were u sing this term and as I did not know it I just asked and I had to lau gh. I think at one time or another most all of us have had to do that,. we might not tell the whole world or even friends but we all do what we have to. There is no shame as who will know unless you tell them and its nobodys business but our own lol.

Used to watch it a lot, but rarely any more. My family was talking about trying to get on the show at one point, but nothing ever came of it.

So that's where he got it. I have not watched Family Feud in many years. Don't know why we quit watching. Boredom, schedule change, who knows?

yes they do remember a lot they see on tv thats why its so bad that todays tv is so lax about what they show. not much censor at times. i dont usually watch many game shows. altho its good for kids i think since it seems to teach them some facts they should know probably

Kids do have this uncanny ability of absorbing everything like a sponge, even if they only saw or heard it once. I have a lil sis who started calling the toilet as the sh*tter when she heard my then bf now husband said it. Good thing we managed to purge it out of her vocabulary before our mom hears her.
