As usual, my friends on Facebook provide the material for my insanity. One of my female friends drug me into this one with the the following question. Here it goes:
I have a question for the ladies……. Be honest! Have you ever tried spanx? LOL!
I did once, I couldn’t get in and out of it! What was your experience? Ha Ha.
Then, for some reason, I was pulled into this with this comment:
EW Greenlee, You have got to jump into this one! This stuff is right up your alley!
This caught me by surprise, because I wondered if she knew I was a man. Was Spanx some form of 50 Shades board and rack game? Do not pass go, do not collect $200, bend over and receive your Spanx. I had no idea why I was being dragged into this one, so I researched Spanx and found it was just undergarments. Really, really tight undergarments. Whew…. So I replied back,
Sorry, I don’t jump into women’s panties. Who do you think I am?!
Then one reader responded “Kilt Spanx”, to which I replied,
Sorry, I go all natural when wearing kilts. I never know when I need to do the Braveheart flash scene. Freeeeedom! Aiyeeee!
If you have ever seen that scene you know what I am talking about. If not, rent it and see what’s under those kilts – both sides!!
Now the instigator of this madness replied one last time,
I know you love to laugh. You’re going to have try this, and then write about it. It would be a hoot! Get Tracey one too, and make it a couple’s event! LOL!
So as you can see my absurd readers are waiting patiently for my brilliant post.
First off, if my wife and I ever decided to go all 50 Shades of Spanx and share panties, I would not share it with anyone. Second, there would be no sex tape, unless I have $1 billion in pre-orders (hey, scruples can be bought!) Just for fun I thought I share some of their comments, since I was asked to jump in.
Sure been thinking about getting some! Anything that might hid the reality!
I finally got it on and then….thought I would never get it off and I might die.
Do they come in extra large?
I never squirmed and twisted so much in my life! It was awful
I felt like a fish flopping out of water!
I thought I should call an EMT! Hey, I am serious…..I was scared….
Same here I lost my courage, I wouldn’t even try a larger size! It was awful!
I bought one of those deals for my daughter’s wedding.. sweated like a pig.. She got married in June. I thought I was gonna die.
I sweated like a pig, because I was struggling so hard to get it off!!!!
I found the Power Panty far too tight (First male response – the Wuss Wuss train is now boarding)
They make these for men too! You’re a curious soul…. (Referring to yours truly)
No, I am not THAT curious. But I do love to laugh. I can only imagine a bunch of menopausal women squirming and sweating like a bunch of pigs as a good night of fun – NOT! Is this what really happens at Bunko?
You ladies and Mr. Wuss Wuss, should have known any product named SPANX is going to hurt. If I decide I want to become a soprano opera wuss wuus, I’ll give Spanx a try. Geez Mon!
Spanx the Monkey!
You just had too, didn’t you!
And there you have it! My contribution to the product known as Spanx, to which Famous Hamish (my alter ego) says NO THANKS! I have a wife, isn’t that torture enough!
