- msergeant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9I've heard of going commando, but now the underpants fight back!
- speedy11309, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6the war is on....the underpants gnomes have struck first.
- ninefourchevo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I bet he ***** his pants when his house caught fire.
- Gir53457, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Too busy burning them.

You're absolutely right. Where did all the children and rednecks come from all of a sudden? Digg seems to attract more and more people who think climate change is a myth, Africa is a country, and that America is a nice place to live. I mean seriously, get a clue! - AkatsukiNoTobi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Common sense seems to be quite rare nowadays....
- Gir53457, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Little does he know, But HE is Captain Underpants.
- BaxterK, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4"OOoOOOOooooOOOooOoOoOo my biscuits are burnin!!" Y. Sam
- ialan2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I remember a story like this. A man found a rat and tried to kill it by setting fire to it. But then it ran inside and it burned down the house.

- ray901, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3err - Are you 7 years old? - how about washing your own underwear?
- rsdouglas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2you could have just bought yourself more underwear...
- Ramtech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2this would be a great hanes commercial :) lol
- astrotrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2** sung to Burning down the house **
Watch out
You can't find what you're after
Unstained drawers
Throw the dirty ones in the garden
Light ... a.... fire to burn ...them ... but wind up now...
Burning down the house - twtmc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1He brings whole new meaning to the term 'Fire Crotch'
- je12u, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is why I don't wear underpants
- azAZ09, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hoist with his own petard.
- loper, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"...failing to find any clean underpants in the closet full of old clothes"
I'm kinda disturbed that the word clean is in there. I can sorta understand being upset by going through a pile of clothes (they say old not dirty) and not finding underwear but are they implying that he went through all those clothes and only found dirty 'roos? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2he must have seen his own face when he got up that day!!! Moral of the story .. "dont drink and work"
- SundayTrain, on 10/12/2007, -8/+9DIGG was once a site of engineers,technophiles and guys with Grey matter. Now it's stupid stories and videos for mass amusement filled with children and kids lacking in technical prowess but filled with the ferver equaling the content of America's funniest home videos...
Sad.... - TomP, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Ivo Jerbic, 55, from Prikraj close to the capital Zagreb
- Where the hell is that?! - The_Dude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My wife periodically just buys more underwear and socks for me, rather than getting the laundry done. Yes, she is insane. We all have crosses to bear. If you don't have one yet, it's coming.
- agimat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@SundayTrain
This is the Off-beat section after all.
You might want to just keep on the Technology section if you like digg as it was before. - Fhwqhgads, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What a retard.
- gameforge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Sorry, are we all here to entertain you? Or educate you or something?
(hint: the answer is "no")
Edit: also, you can block the "offbeat news" category, if you don't want to read the... you know, offbeat news. - mediaphile, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2@submitter: "An angry husband who threw old clothes from his wardrobe in the garden and set fire to them because he could not find his clean underpants."
That's not even a sentence. Is it so much to ask for a coherent description? - jcapogna, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You're a jerk.
- gameforge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Well, he said he was frustrated that his wife never threw anything out - sounds like it was all her clothes which were causing him so much grief. So, he decided to throw them all out into the garden and burn them. Don't know why his underwear would be mixed in with his wife's old clothes... maybe she does the laundry (and sucks at it)?
The article said he could get 8 years in prison for putting his family members at risk, despite nobody being injured. I sure hope the judge doesn't do that to him... he already lost his house. I could deal with a few months in prison for this, but 8 years? For some kind of unintentional, unsuccessful attempted manslaughter? - HotSlag, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Categories are the worst things that ever happened to Digg..... but only for people who don't use them.
- SnoopBlawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This guy is my new hero!!! Wait, I think that was my father. Damn it!
- LordSkywalker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Reminds me of Arthur Spooner.
- al1encas1no, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"They later said the only person in the world that could have saved Captain Underpants... was himself."
- Wullie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The UK's jails are at bursting capacity, forcing judges to let criminals walk the streets, whereas this old man who done something accidentally is possibly going to go to jail. What a complete joke!
- Krones, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Dumb ass should have gone free-ball; like those who are all about truthiness and letting em drop.
- SwissCamel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's no worse than killing your child when you are trying to clean a fish tank.
- m3rkvry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0My God. I think this man actually discovered Step 2. Someone call the Underpants Gnomes!
- anselmthecrack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Beware of the attack of the underpants"
This is just freaky! - biotch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1... was seen earlier at a pro bush rally.

- helinism, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Ahaha so his knickers have been burning, know his ears are burning as everyone talks about him, and... If he gets eight years then his ass will probably be burning. All because he couldn't wash his own crusties!
- pralph, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2@TomP
It's in Croatia dumbass. I'll forgive you for not knowing the capital of Croatia off the top of your head, but I won't forgive you for being too lazy and ignorant to look it up. - LinuxAddict, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0He's still a n00b
- fiver22, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Thank goodness this was on Digg's front page -otherwise I would never have seen such a HUGELY important story.
- MrFoof82, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0<seinfeld>
Road rage? Wrap rage? Underpant rage? What is it anyways with the media taking some word and adding rage to the end of it?
</seinfeld> - inarguable, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0 Imagine the financial kick in the scrotum this fool has to absorb. Any homeowner's insurance payout he may be expecting WILL be contested and most likely the contract he signed will be ruled null and void, especially if he is charged criminally. It truly would suck having to continue paying another 10 years worth of mortgage payments on a bunch of charred lumber and smoking underpants!
- argoff, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Ha ha, reminds me of a dispute I had with my wife 15 years ago. She would never wash the underwear till after I had totally run out and had nothing to wear. Being a clever dude, I figured that I would just throw out some of her underwear and then she would do the wash more often. Well, she didn't notice what I did, but when she started to run out - she went and purchased herself a whole new set with "our" (read my) money. For you younger guys out there, whatever she does, forget about the paybacks. Even if she has it coming, it never works! Try wining about your "feelings" instead. Don't accuse, don't insult, just wine about your "feelings" - women are good at that talk stuff. Anything else will always come back to kick your ass one way or another. I swear. They may look helpless, but are heavy duty ass kickers. I swear.
