The Teddy Bear (and by extension, Theodore Roosevelt?)
Edward VII? (not a hottie, but still more sex attached to his personae than TR: one could imagine the Parisians coming up with a new design in his honor)
Empress Theodora? (a better choice, but kind of obscure)
It was Theodore Roosevelt. As part of a photo-op, his aides had trapped a lone piece of lingerie up in a tree for him to shoot. But Roosevelt refused, saying that it was sporting to shoot underwear that had been trapped in a tree for him, and his refusal was enshrined in a political cartoon that was widely distributed. Ever since, that kind of lingerie has been called a “Teddy”.
What few people realize is that, out of earshot of the reporters, Roosevelt gave his gun to the groundskeeper and confided “Well, I can’t sjhoot it now. You shoot the damned thing.”
That’s an interesting story, but I don’t understand the point of shooting underwear in a tree. Was there some underlying significance that was more relevant at that time?
whoosh
He’s telling the story of the teddy bear, but substituting in an unmentionable for an ursine.
Neither do I, unless there’s somebody inside the underwear you don’t like very much.
I thought you only shot elephants in your underwear.
Well, he wasn’t shooting to kill; he had a tranquilizer gun. They’re like cats; much better at climbing up than down. How else would you get the damn thing down, especially if it’s XXL?

And how he got into my underwear, I’ll never…oh Hell, annie. 
:smack:
Stuff it with goose feathers, I guess. I’m not sure why, though. Except in the far north, sexy lingerie items aren’t made with down. Maybe if L.L.Bean merged with Victoria’s Secret, eh? That would be a heckuva catalog. 
It might have stuff like this (borderline NSFW, so extra spaces added): http://www. nznature. co. nz /mshop:SP:1847950030:tb=5
I had the absurd imagine of Bill Clinton and Monica in mind while reading this! :eek:
Get rid of all that frilly stuff and substitute nice soft warm flannel…
Yeah, I could get behind that.
If you want to get behind a bear dressed in flannel, that’s your business. Send us the link for the video, though. 
I thought twickster’s employer was exceptionally prude if gloves and sweaters were considered NSFW, then I got to the bottom of the page.

“A real warm fuzzy for downunder, from downunder.”
Oops – sorry – usually I check my links before I post, but since I took the spaces out I didn’t. Oh well.
Yeah, I was trying to link to the fur pasties and g-string.
