Great. Now I have to change my jeans every day.
And buy a new chair.
And new carpet.
Every day. - zephc, on 10/12/2007, -2/+70'"forces liquid to bead off and run..."
Great. Now I have to change my jeans every day.'
Well just stop beading off then. - ChronicColonic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+54I think there are many people who think this underwear technology has been around for years.
- DanThePainter, on 10/12/2007, -4/+41The idea is still gross. Sorry, I like fresh drawhz daily.
- Managore, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30How is this news? My underwear already goes weeks without washing...
/sarcasm - CzechRebel, on 10/12/2007, -4/+25Yes, it was first recovered from the Roswell UFO Crash in 1947. During the Cold War, self-cleaning underwear was stockpiled by both the US and the USSR in top-secret underground warehouses. Plans were made to ship the underwear to the front, should an actual shooting war brake out.
Unfortunately after the fall of the Soviet Union, some of the self-cleaning underwear went missing. It is feared that it may fallen into the wrong hands.
President Bush is considering going public with this in his upcoming State of the Union Message. He may be forced to admit that after six years of looking for bin Laden, he remains at large due to al-Qaeda large stockpile self-cleaning underwear.
/sarcasm - Kahnza, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20So you ***** and cum in your pants?
- TH3W1R3D, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18From now on i'll just wear my special underwear. No pants. I can piss myself whenever I feel the need.
Life just got great. - lazlonger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Or particles touching your nano junk...? Sorry couldn't resist.
- bennyboy371, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11The self cleaning tshirt that the article mentioned would actually be kinda nice. Though, I'd prefer it also changed color so people didn't know I was wearing the same shirt for two weeks at a time.
- lansuggs, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12The technology has been around for years....just turn them inside out. There's literally no limit to how long you can be wearing the same pair.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+121 - Collect Underwear
2 - //////NEWS FLASH/////// Make it self cleaning!!!!
3 - Profit - fuzzlepop, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14A few *****/cum stains have never made me get infected or ill. I would rather them in my pants than have ***** and germs running down my legs.
- dustinhoffman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10I've been using something like this since I peed my pants in 3rd grade... Just take a couple pairs of your favorite underwear to your local Kinkos (or whatever you have) and have the fine people there laminate them. It will take a couple weeks to get used to the stiffness and possible plastic cuts... but the edges will wear down since you can wear the darn things for months at a time... If you're an overachiever and feel like cleaning them; even though you don't have to... get out a bottle of windex and spray them down... you'll be good for another 3 months.
- mercurysquad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9college student's dream come true.. :P
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Okay, it "repels" stuff. Where, exactly, does said stuff go?
- antipro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Finally I can buy a thong with Stain Defender
- Protean1, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Doesn't this belong on slashdot?
News for nerds, stuff that matters...
:D - gaijin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I'm looking for the "Buried as just plain nasty" button.
- TheRingmaster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7"A protective coating of nanomaterial repels water, oil and bacteria."
And then it either stays on you or drips off, leaving you with smelly pants. - BigKitty, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Just think...less time at the laundry, more time on DIGG!
Actually...I have heard of material with silver in it to kill germs. They're using that for bandages, also. - flamingmb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Great for those week long binges on WoW!
- sicc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7uh....ew?
- mutatron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Best headline ever! As good as many a headline from The Onion.
- iomegaboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Direct from the WTF? department.
- praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -1/+7Kahnza, this is Digg! No need to lie to ourselves here! I personally haven't changed my underwear in weeks.
- Videlicet, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5And in related news, new nanomaterial-coated underpants sell out in college towns across the nation.
- simpson100, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5That's nothing. Mormon underwear is fireproof and protects you from evil.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5one thing you all don't realize is that something like this could be extremely useful for emergency situations. should i have a chance of being stuck somewhere for a while, i'd rather have this than normal underwear
- narcosis219, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4...it repels so that means any stuff u might drip stays there or gets absorbed into ur skin. NASTY
- Wonderkind, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6At the Doctor's office, the nurse said she needed a stool sample, a blood sample,
a semen sample and a urine sample, so I just handed her my shorts. - wo1verine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Where can we buy some of these... you know... for a friend.
- Managore, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4That's why eating utensils are often referred to as "silver" or "fine silver", since wealthy people in times past would have their utensils made out of silver to reduce bacteria.
- Blueshrike, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4The skidmarks, they skid right off!
- Cr0z, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"...has already been used to create t-shirts and underwear that can be worn hygenically for weeks without washing"
A bit of rotation and tshirts can be worn for weeks without washing anyway, the secret is to keep them in a pile on your floor when you're not wearing them... - hashpipe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3cry, I want to digg this. But if I do I'll just feell wrong.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6whiskey, tango, foxtrot!
- Draje, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Now all it needs to repel is the psychological effect of you knowing you have been wearing the same pair of underwear for a couple weeks.
- Soldierboi, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3One small step for linux geeks...
- noumenon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3after a while, it becomes a part of you.
- KiDD420, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I'm cool on having nano particles touching my junk
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The underpants may be self-cleaning but they can't handle... lumps...
And I know people who would try. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I know plenty of smokers who would gladly pay for a nanoparticle coating on their lungs. All that crap from your cigs just beads and runs right off.
- sfacets, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3 A (poor) student's dream come true!
- Tagaiz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2i dont have self cleaning underwear and i havent changed mine for weeks
- TheBigShovel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Make them see through and we can get Paris for our spokesperson.
