Skid marks in boxers, completely avoidable or a fact of life

I need cheering up, a crazy lady crashed into me on a roundabout this morning at 9.30 and im still constantly on the phone to insurers etc trying to sort it all out.

Anyway yes skid marks. Does anyone else's husband etc produce skid-marked boxers.

Is it a man thing?

Is it laziness?

Have you ever skid-marked ?

Discuss.....

My BIL apparently leaves skid marks in his pants - and on their bedsheets - quite regularly! Shock I couldn't believe it when my DSis first mentioned it, especially the bedsheets! Shock Thankfully, my DH's pants are as clean as a whistle - as are mine (thanks to wet wipes, gotta love 'em)! Grin

I don't think he didn't on purpose, he was just weird Sad

RhondaJean · 13/06/2014 20:53

On his fucking TOWEL?

That would be marching orders for me.

Fuck me, skid marks on his towel what exactly did he clean in the shower?

were his bits smelly too

MehsMum · 13/06/2014 20:53

My DH's mother brought him up very badly. I have totally failed to re-educate him re arse wiping.

I finally trained him to leave his pants turned the right way in the wash basket out so I don't have to look.

In all other respects he is very clean.

OP, you are not alone. Bad luck with the crazy lady. Hope it is all sorted out.

Fleta · 13/06/2014 20:56

Wha...? Just what?

Never used moist toilet tissue. Never had the problem. Neither has any bloke I've known!

Apparently the correct name for an attached poo crumb is "fartleberry".
I can't remember how I know that. Blush

Wow what a response!! Well you have all cheered me up as i am still very upset about my car. On the accident front the crazy ladies insurance has been in touch and she admitted full liability and so i am now dealing with my claim through her Saga insurance rather than my Tesco insurance as i could tell as soon as i got some documents through from my insurer that they were going to maximise the claim as much as possible. Whereas im not interested in amounting as large a claim as possible , i just want my car sorted out , a lot of people do not understand but ive had him since i passed my test and he has been immaculately cared for and maintained and ill be dammed if someone elses poor driving takes that away from me. Anyway sorry for the rambling but my head is still all over the place. Picked up the hire car and on the drive home i was very paranoid!!

Well the skid marks are not a regular occurrence probably every 6 months. It just irritates me as i think it happens when he has an itchy arse and does a proper scratch of it with his hand whereas if i ever get an itchy arse i do the itchy
arse shuffle which is similar to the wedgie shuffle which is much more subtle. Although i do clean my arse properly so even if i did go for a proper finger through pants scratch i dont think id leave a mark!!!

Also this is slightly off topic (only slightly) but i once worked with a chap who wiped his arse back to front. - We had been reading a womens magazine article about how to avoid UTIs and he said, well i wipe back to front. It was the oddest discussion we ever had and bearing in mind i work in a shop full of blokes that is saying something, although in generally the crudest one and also one to lower the tone :)

Why WHY are you people washing your partners shit pants????

Why WHY..

Mehs the solution is not right way out pants it's CLEAN YOUR ARSE YOU FOUL BASTARD AND I WILL NEVER EVER WASH YOUR CLOTHES AGAIN.

gamerchick · 13/06/2014 21:29

fartleberry? or dingleberry? neither sound quite right but sound right Grin

dangleberry?

It's going to be doing my head in now, of all things on a friday night!

summertimeandthelivingiseasy · 13/06/2014 21:30

Failure to empty bowel properly (pelvic floor dysfunction - can happen to men too, or too quick to get off the bog)

long term constipation leading to leakage

inherent problem with the seam of the boxers giving wedgie

gamerchick · 13/06/2014 21:31

ahh but then there's the conversation about do you reach between your legs or round the back.. sit down and stand up.. some people wipe their arses in the strangest of ways.

tallulahturtle · 13/06/2014 21:49

Exactly gamer thats a whole new conversation :)

OP - my (fresh ex) DP farted and left a skid mark on my bed.

On my birthday. :o

glasgowstevenagain · 13/06/2014 22:45

I use baby wipes after every poo

BumWad · 13/06/2014 22:46

My DH leave slight marks on the odd occasion as he has serious itchy arsehole syndrome

gimcrack · 13/06/2014 22:56

For the love of god, it's not hard to wipe your own arse. My kids do it. Unless he's got severe piles and anal leakage, but why isn't he washing his own skidaddled pants?

susiedaisy · 13/06/2014 22:57

My ds left a huge skid mark on a bath towel once I didn't realise and dried myself after my shower with the towel and then spent about half an hour wondering why the smell of shit kept following me around the house. I had to shower again.

My exh sat on our bed to put his socks on and when he stood up he had left a ruddy great skid mark on our lovely white bed sheet. but he was a lazy sod when it came to hygiene. I did throw a huge fit though and he never did it again.

magimedi · 13/06/2014 23:03

LTB

An adult who can't deal with shit?

And the residue?

Jeez - that is just beyond belief.

LTB!

Ifpigscouldfly · 13/06/2014 23:15

There are women who wash their DPs shitty underwear (medical conditions aside) instead of divorcing them ??? Vom.

avianaz · 13/06/2014 23:21

Lol he seemed really embarrassed to be fair.

But then he refused to clean it.

Loved it, excellent birthday present!

Hakluyt · 13/06/2014 23:25

This just all reinforces my strong belief that you should only form adult relationships with other adults. You'd never have this sort of problem then.

Littleen · 13/06/2014 23:27

Haha, once in Southampton, a teenage bloke cycled past with the usual super low hanging jeans on - and skidmarked boxers on show... :P Bet he didn't feel quite so cool when he noticed!

AnnaLegovah · 13/06/2014 23:33

I've left skidmarks before. The unfortunate thing about thong underwear is that they can get wedged right up your crack and ease out a fartleberry. In my defense, sometimes you get a splatter which leaves you wiping for ages and clogging the loo with paper and somehow don't quite get it all.

I must not be an adult. Blush

MrsAlexVause · 13/06/2014 23:37

My ex used to get them in the bed. Fucking delightful.

BumWad · 13/06/2014 23:38

Yes yes anna I have thong accidents too only teeny tiny ones!! I blame the ibs!!
