Have you ever worn your knickers back to front?

I have once or twice in my life (I think) been so otherwise engaged in the morning that I have put my underpants on back to front. Depending on the symmetry of the tailoring, one doesn't (as a male) necessarily notice until one goes to ease oneself. Then, and only then, one realises to one's consternation that the opening in the front of them, to which one is so accustomed on occasions like this when one is facing the white porcelain, simply is not there! Where did it go? When I bought these underpants there was surely a buttoned opening (or maybe a gusseted one, if they were Y-fronts) ... now there is nothing! OMG! ... the truth dawns and one retreats in hot haste into the nearest stall .... Females, of course, may experience an undefinable discomfort of more cloth at the back than at the front until they realise that the irritation under their belly button is simply the label in an unaccustomed place! I guess that it's not such a problem for them ... merely a discomfort ... because they need to take them down anyway. MyLot has got it's knickers on back to front of late, it seems. When I post this discussion, I shall be told that it has been "deleted because it has violated the Guidelines" (the standard page you get when you go to a discussion that no longer exists) ... OK, been there done that! You're a-readin' this, ain't ya? Also, you very likely won't be able to reply to it. Try clicking the 'Respond to this Discussion' button ... it will just refresh the screen (as if it were laffin' at ya). Get riled and try to report it for abuse by clicking the '!' ... tee-hee! A blank screen! (You can, however, click on the plus sign and it seems to work ... try it, why don'tcha :) ) If you have anything to say in response to this, the only way I shall see it is if you PM me (until MyLot get their legs in the right holes, that is). Those who know my email address, IM id or Facebook ident can, of course, use those methods!

Looks like it's back to normal now. As you know, I don't post many discussions but decided to try over the weekend and nothing worked. Do you think I jinxed the site? By the way, in answer to the back to front question, I often put clothes on back to front and they are not very comfy that way.

I was fairly sure that it would be fixed very quickly on Tuesday (it was a holiday in the States Monday). I think that putting clothes on back to front must be a sign of absent mindedness and therefore, probably, of intelligence.

Thanks, I'll accept that. Someone quoted a new way of saying absent minded which I like and I'm sure you will, it's 'present minded elsewhere'.

That wasn't her, it was me. I must be more observant. Do you think if I write that a hundred times it will help?

Personally this happens from time to time here, and it can be annoying but as you have been here a while you know that things often work out for the Best in time here as well. But to put your knickers or underwear as we call them here in the US on backwards can be an annoying thing for sure. I know it does happen from time to time when in a hurry but it is Best if wide awake and pay attention to what you are doing for sure.
