Who wants to receive underwear in the mail?  
Who wants to participate in a worldwide doper underwear event?  
Who wants to giggle at the word ‘undies?’

The Great Underpants Exchane is happening!

What happens: You sign up, and become a Secret Underpants Gnome. I pair you up with another doper. You send the undies to me, i send it you your partner–and vice-versa. You photograph the undies(if you’re brave, you can be wearing them at the time of the photo!) On a certain date, your Secret Underpants Gnome will be revealed. All photographs will be put on the Secret Underpants Gnome website.

– **prizes will be given to best five undies sent!! and…first five to sign up!!** –

Rules:

clean or dirty, new or your own… can be the underwear you send.

There are no restrictions on sexy underwear.

You do not have to reveal your buttsize to participate.

so, basically, No Rules.

Have fun!

I don’t want **MrCynical’s** underpants. They’re big enough to use as a parachute but, there are too many holes.

I’m not going to play, (The scars! They are still too fresh!) but I was wondering how things are going.

So? How are things going?

I’ve got my fresh, new undies from **Rue** s exchange. I suppose I could fob off an old pair or two, but, nah, I’ll take a powder on this round.

Thanks for asking, though. Good luck with all that.
