That's weird, National Underwear Day happens to coincidentally fall on National Don't Participate in Stupid Marketing Gimmicks Day.

It's also International Beer Day. Coincidence? Or something more?

Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing underwear.

When is National No Underwear Day?

*looks around impatiently*

Not to be confused with No Pants Day, though No Pants Day and Underwear Day sort of go together.

*thinks*

Though No Pants Day and No Underwear Day seems like a match also.

Isn't this, like, every day at Victoria's Secret?

1) Collect underpants
2) Spin some lame-ass "holiday" out of whole cloth to sell your underpants
3) PROFIT

Holy shit, they figured it out.

Comment from the last link:

I hope hollywood will now realize that some 60% of American men wear briefs or boxersbriefs and will therefore no longer put every male actor in boxers.

Yes! This disparity will not stand! Fight the power! Down with the baggy-underwear-wearing elites! Up with tightie whities!

I did, in fact, forget to bring my underwear today to change into after my bike commute.
