8-year-old twins invent wedgie-proof undies

[Mr Buckshot]

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Wedgie-proof underwear earned 8-year-old twin boys a spot Friday on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Using rigged boxers and fabric fasteners to hold together some seams, Jared and Justin Serovich came up with the "Rip Away 1000."

"When the person tries to grab you — like the bully or the person tries to give you a wedgie — they just rip away," Justin explained Thursday by phone from Los Angeles, where the TV segment was taped Wednesday.
The third graders from Gables Elementary School began brainstorming one day after they were horsing around, giving each other the treatment. Their mother's partner sarcastically said someone ought to invent wedgie-proof underwear, the family said.
The project got the boys to the finals of a central Ohio invention competition earlier this year, followed by the television appearance.

Man, if I had a pair of underpants like that, I wouldn't have to tuck in my shirt anymore.

[Dr Nick]

That would feel really gross.

[Tweek]

people actually DO wedgies?

i thought that was a cartoon-only thing.
how sad.

how sad.Yes, in some places people will attempt to make you feel uncomfortable by tearing away at your undergarments.

Also, people don't really DO wedgies, they usually give or receive them.

:picsorstfu:

[Aerowyn]

Don't male strippers use basically the same thing to tear THEIR underwear off? :awesome:

[DrunkenSamus]

People still give wedgies? I thought that was a thing to do in like the 60s or 70s...

[Mr Buckshot]

:picsorstfu:

Afraid not...for now. No pics have been released YET, but it's all over the news.

[Bodzilla]

[PlasbianX]

[DaneO'Roo]

Con, dacking in Australia is pulling their pants straight down to their ankles. Quite popular over here. Had it happen to me a few times.

Some people forget to wear underwear though :failowned:

[Emmzee]

Doesn't Lightning use basically the same thing to tear HIS underwear off? :awesome:
Fixed.

Here it is called pantsing, and it does not occur if you are smart and wear a belt.

Because it is not just for holding trousers up.

Get back here you young'in!

Wouldn't you like to know! :awesome:

Me too. Good thing I wear a belt :awesome:

My group generally preferred hanging small children from trees by their bag straps to dacking. Wedgies... I've heard threats made, and apparently one guy was wedgied pretty well in the change rooms in year 7, but I've never witnessed one.

Witnessing a REAL wedgie is a rare and surreal event, not publicly witnessed in this area in over four years.

"When the person tries to grab you — like the bully or the person tries to give you a wedgie — they just rip away,"
And then you have no underwear on in the case of the person running back two seconds later to pants you... Fucking retard kids. There was a preventative measure against this developed about the same time the wedgie was devised: a punch in the nose followed by a swift kick to the balls.

[Emmzee]

Wouldn't you like to know! :awesome:
I would.

Although, today, for a scant five hundred dollars and three weeks, you can upgrade to tasering the bitch in the gut.

The fact that the kid pussies out and resorts to a taser is the reason he gets pants'd.

[Skiiran]

Not if it has a bayonet.

Or you know if the taser is followed up by a knife in the back.

[Dole]

Pussy tbh.

Are you really so weak that you need a knife to get back at someone pulling your underwear out?

[Skiiran]

Pussy tbh.
Yeah.

Well.

Tough.

[Mr Buckshot]

I believe I witnessed Bathroom getting a wedgie before in 7th grade :O was it Bird who did it?

[n00b1n8R]

Wouldn't you like to know! :awesome:
what happend to miss abstinence?

[Tweek]

gosh, so your pants got dropped, people will look at you for the next WHOLE 10 minutes. way to get worked up about something that will totally haunt you for the rest of your FUCKING LIFE.

sad sad sad

[Aerowyn]

what happend to miss abstinence?

Didn't say I wasn't, you know.

[Cortexian]

When hanging around with friends, wedgies are just an excuse to grab some of the opposite sex's underwear.

My logic is undeniable.

[Kornman00]

Pussy tbh.

Teenage girls who take abstinence pledges are nine times more likely to give oral sex, and 4 times more likely to take it up the butt.

It's true too.

[ImSpartacus]

Concerning the story, I haven't heard about this and I live in Columbus, something tells me this 'invention' isn't worth it's weight in cocker spaniel shit, but that's just me.

There has been violence since the first human tried to invent catch and his monkey friend was too dumb to catch the rock.
