Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of Distractible. I am today's host, Pete. Why? Because I won the last one. Joining us as always are my co-hosts, Mark and Bob. Hello, men. How are you? Hi. It is cold in Cincinnati. We have had like the coldest November start to December. I remember school got canceled because of cold in early December. That like never happened. That's like February weather. It's like wildly cold right now.
I hate it. You know where it's warm? Inside. Inside where? Inside. I mean, inside anything, anywhere, any place that's inside. Probably pretty warm. I got parts that are warm. All right. He's writing down a point. He's giving me warm points.
I've got warm parts. I got lots of warm parts.
You want to feel some? I want you to feel some. You use your right hand for Mark and your left hand for me and just start reaching. See who's warmer. Yeah, I bet I'm warmer. I bet I'm warmer.
You guys ain't never had a friend like me. That's a callback right there. Give yourself a callback point. Why not?
Man, I don't think Wade's ever earned a point when he owes. He always like loses six points.
It is very rare. How are you guys doing? How's life? How's things?
Good.
Life is good.
It's about to change. Huh? I have a big sweeping change that I just am bursting at the seams. My entire life, I have been led astray. My entire life. Uh-oh.
He figured it out, Bob. What was it? Nothing. Go on.
Go on? My entire life, I've been lied to. I've been slandered. I've been some other word that is also like this. I made a fundamental difference in my life that has benefited me beyond anything I could ever have dreamed of. For years and years and years, I've been lied to that boxer briefs are the superior form of underwear. This is a lie. This is a lie that has been perpetuated and I will not stand for it anymore. As it turns out, briefs, tighty-whities, no leggies, whatever you want to call them underwear, that is the superior form of underwear. It is infinitely more comfortable. I never have any of the legs bunching up when I put my pants on, when I'm walking around. There ain't no chafing. Because there's nothing to chafe.
There's no bunching up. There's no nothing. It is so freeing. It is so wonderful. I thought it would take me forever to get used to. Turns out, life needed to get used to me now that I've made this change. Are you throwing up? I thought he was just going to throw up.
i'm not even gonna dispute you mark except for people like me with very large legs i gotta have the leg parts thought you were going with the dick no i have a very a very normal size penis don't worry about it but my legs my leg is probably as big around as mark's torso is I'm enormous and my legs are enormous. And if I don't have the pants parts, my legs just like start a little fire anytime I walk anywhere or do anything. It's very miserable. But you're right. That's why boxers are terrible and why boxer briefs are better because you get a little bit of the world that briefs allow you to live in. Because I don't know how anyone could live in boxers, especially knitted boxers where they're not like stretchy or whatever. It's like your junk is living in a cave. It just flops around. It's like you've got your junk loose in the trunk of a car and you're driving around a racetrack at full speed. It's terrible.
But some of us do need the briefs part of the boxer or the boxer part of the boxer briefs. But I think I think you're right. I'm team boxers. You wear normal boxers?
