    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

      Hmmmm, Wombats reasonably prices black jelly beans...measured against every living thing that swims, crawls, slithers and flies trying to kill you.

      Not quite a good enough trade-off just yet...

        But add Koalas Kookaburras and Kangaroos to the plus side and what happens.

                          Y-Fronts authenticity?

                          Far be it from me, a mere layman and newcomer to these illustrious boards, to cast the first stone of doubt regarding the Y-Fronts, but I have some questions:

                          1 Has the Y-Front DNA testing been subjected to peer review?
                          2 Is it likely to be?
                          3 If so, when?
                          4 Were the samples taken from areas of semen staining?
                          5 Is there any truth in the rumour that a Gentlemen's Underwear Emporium/Bookstore/Confectioners/Toyshop/Badger Taming Establishment is to open shortly on the Thames Embankment? - we already know that a book is imminent!

                          During my exhaustive research (ie Google/Wikipaedia) I have discovered what I believe to be pertinent information, and I quote:

                          "Tight briefs have been blamed for negatively affecting semen analysis, since they may interfere with the cooling of the testes.[6] However, not all research has come to the same conclusion. A study in the October 1998 Journal of Urology, for example, concluded that underwear type is unlikely to have a significant effect on male fertility." (Wikipaedia)
                          "Briefs were first sold on January 19, 1935 by Coopers, Inc., in Chicago, Illinois." (Wikipaedia)
                          "In the UK, briefs were first sold in 1938." (Wikipaedia)

                          Can someone provide solid evidence to convince me before I jump onto the Anti-Y-Front bandwagon?

                            G'day aj

                            1 Has the Y-Front DNA testing been subjected to peer review?
                            Of course. Pinky asked me to have a sniff and see what I thought. And I'm hs peer [or is that queer I keep getting mixed up]


                            2 Is it likely to be?
                            3 If so, when?
                            Not applicable. Already done.

                            4 Were the samples taken from areas of semen staining?
                            Yes I sniffed the right spot.

                            5 Is there any truth in the rumour that a Gentlemen's Underwear Emporium/Bookstore/Confectioners/Toyshop/Badger Taming Establishment is to open shortly on the Thames Embankment? - we already know that a book is imminent!
                            Only if there's a quid in it.

                              Ahhhhh......that's allright then - as I hadn't read about it in the gutter press, I was beginning to think it might not be true after all!
