Seinfeld did a great opening to his show on this. I believe it went something like guys never throw underwear away...they simply dissintigrate into nothing...then we open up the window...blow and they're gone.

I have some that have just about as many rips as fabric left...I save those for laundry day.

Men wear their underwear until it absolutely disintegrates. Men hang on to underwear until, until each individual underwear molecule is so strained it can barely retain the properties of a solid. It actually becomes underwear vapor. We don't even throw it out, we just open a window and it goes out like dandelion spoors.

I use boxer briefs only, and as soon as they arent snug to my thigh, I turf them. Normally that means about 4-6 washes.

Wow. So either you go through 15 pairs a year or you don't seem to wash your underwear. Uggh.

For me its when there are 2 holes in the bottom allowing my "boys" to hang out.

I've thrown many pairs just like that out. The bf refuses to throw any out, so once i see the two holes, they are gone!

The wife handles that for me. I put them in the hamper, they don't seem to make it back upstairs into the drawer. At some point, when the supply seems on the low side, I buy some more.

Not entirely sure what criteria she uses to determine the worthiness of continued washing, but I'm sure it is some combination of holes, fading, discoloration and her general mood at the time.

My favorite song about underwear (Frank Zappa, The Jazz Discharge Party Hats). Warning, adult themes:

Once upon a time
It was in Albuquerque, New Mexico
There were these girls that worked at the college
They were really cool . . .

I would suggest investing in some higher quality boxer briefs. I always and basically only wear CK 365's. They'll run you around $25 each, but are the most comfortable things ever, and last years.

I usually keep em until the elastic wears out. I've currently got a pair that are so torn up that my boys actually hang fully out of em. Granted I only turn to those ones in a pinch(and would never break em out on date night), but I have to admit they're still in my rotation. I just can't bring mysef to throw em out, we've been through alot together...
