I haven't met many elderly disabled children that were pregnant!

Not many? Then you have met some?

Fascinating........

Or, were they just not pregnant?

Probably just full of S..T, makes them look pregnant.

As for me I blame in on dark ale.

Zero could be defined as not many!

Could be, but then "not many" can does imply more than zero, thus "some".....

May be the pc. way of saying nobody can use this restroom. An out of order sign would work just as well

Wayne,
Is that an underwear label?
The surprising thing is that it says made in the USA.
Is that Union of South Africa?
Or are they old?

Pretty severe for a minor infraction!

Wayne,

Yes.

Apparently, a warning about washing their bottom is required for many USAuns.

The surprising thing is that it says made in the USA.

Not surprising, there are a lot of "Made in USA" underwear brands sold today.

Underwear made in USA: Freedom Reigns, Hanes, American Apparel, Duluth Trading Company, Flint and Tinder, Fruit of the Loom, Union Label, Rago, Hanky Panky, Knock Out, Commando, Campbellsville Apparel Company, Ribbedtee, Kings Underwear, Union House, Hard Hhat, Carhatt, Bgreen Apparel, Ramblers Way, Blade and Bblue, Special Delivery NYC, Rei Underwear, Mr and Muse, Swav Apparel, Boxercraft, etc, etc..

Is that Union of South Africa?

No, USA stands for United States of America.
Made in South Africa labels look like this:

Or are they old?

Define, "old." Never mind, I don't know the answer in any case. In the United States warning labels were instituted under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938. Recently (don't ask me to define, "recent") there have been competitions between companies for who can put the stupidest warning labels on products. I suspect, since they are stuck with applying stupid labels for stupid people, they are trying to have fun with it.

Hmmm. I have Hanes underwear. The newest, 2016, was made in El Salvador and some from 2015 was made in Indonesia.
Older than that, I guess.

Good sleuthing into your underwear Roger.

"Hanes is a Classic American Company that makes standard and reliable underwear. Hanes is most widely known for their basic white collection. A standard in everyone's drawer. Hanes is made in the USA but sold around the world.Jul 4, 2014"

Apparently, things changed at Hanes after 2014 (or Underwear Expert was wrong in the first place.)

Or... maybe you have counterfeit underwear.

Looks like underwear, feels like underwear so I dont think I care.

Think I better go read my toothpaste label.
