Spanx for Chinstrap, pantyhose fixes?

Hey, this is just a quick thought. I wear those "Spanx" style body shapers, due to thunderous thighs - sorry to burst your fantasies if you thought I resembled my avatar.

One ripped, and I was about to toss it out, when I started looking at it. Now, I haven't done this yet, you know what a procrastinator I am, but I'll just bet this fabric would make great chinstraps and/or material for "pantyhose fixes".

If your thunder-thighed significant other has some of these in the drawer, you might ask her to give you a pair once she's decided they are no longer useful for their intended purpose.

BTW, I actually wear the "off brand" by L'eggs, they're my favorite kind.

If anyone wants to test-drive this theory, PM me and I'll send them out. Sorry, I already washed them.

LOL,
Babs

Geeesh Babs,

You not gonna let the guys have any fun? I have a brother into some pretty kinky stuff (since he is my brother I don't even want to know what all) --- his son has told my son that his dad (my brother) pays top dollar for used underwear from some internet site ---

Oh wait -- I consider you my friend and so I SURE DON"T WANNA go there

EWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, having just read such an ad on Craigslist, I think I'll write back and ask if he has a sister named Carol.

Craigslist can be very entertaining. And I was only looking for a bookcase!

LOL,
Babs

Yeah, that's why I buy the L'eggs version at Walgreen's instead. But they are the name brand, that's why I call them that. Sorta like calling "facial tissues" Kleenex.

I don't watch much television but I remember a television show that had these old grannies setting around wondering how to supplement their meager pensions and they decided to sell the one old lady's granddaughters underwear on eBay --

Does anyone remember what television show it was on?

It might have been Law and Order SVU -- cause I watch it and CSI and cartoons (when grandkids are here)-- but I am almost sure it wasn't on SpongeBob SquarePants.

Thanks FF. I knew I had watched that episode and since my television that I DO watch is very limited I could narrow it down. I used to watch JAG all the time but haven't found it since they took it off USA in the evening.
