stirfry: "for a nation of wussies they sure do mention the samurai alot".

I'm pretty sure they will say ( probably not to your face) that you are weak minded, strength is not always visable. Anyway actually getting back to being showy then these pants fit that ticket.

Meh. Paying $92 for something only seen in the bedroom is something you do at Victoria's Secret. I'll just stick with "regular" boxer briefs @ $15 for a 3-pack.

lol, dolphin print briefs? Come on, that doesn't sound that bad. Now, a fat old woman, who drops her towel, now that, that is truly a horrifying sight. The sight is never removed from the retinas. Oh, and on a completely different subject, are you a fan of Big Bang Theory? Just curious.
