Reminds me of a funny story concerning holes in underwear!
20+ years ago, after I had been promoted at work, to one of the top positions, no less, I was asked to go out on a Saturday and help another group of Millwrights catch up on a job.
Millwright work is typically dirty, so we all changed clothes at the end of the day.
Well, while we were in the Gang Toilet changing, everyone started ragging me about my promotion and all the extra money, etc.
Then, out of the blue, one of the guys spoke up about how I needed the raise to buy new underwear!
Looked down and my briefs were torn, had a hole about 3" in diameter in them.
Embarrassing!
