There was a young guy in his early 20's in Wal Mart, wearing jeans with small holes over the back pockets & large holes in front along the front pockets & on both thighs, both of his pockets were sticking out... He was fb

I have a friend who wears jeans with holes in the crotch/thigh area when he mowes his grass, when he is done he takes them off in the basement or on the front porch!

I used to wear lots of pants with holes in them over the years,especially at primary school as I had a shang eye hanging out of my hip pocket a lot of the time and carried a lot of 3/4" screenings in the pockets to use in the shang eye.Well one thing led to another about that shang eye and the stones.The teachers went crook at me,I got the belt off dad.and mum took to my jeans with the cissors and cut holes inside the jeans so I couldn't carry the stones and one of the holes in the left hand front pocket was only about 2" below my waist line and over a period of time showed a fair bit of skin.
One day while I was wearing these jeans we had some sort of needle (smallpox I think).I don't remember what happened but finished up sitting on the teachers lap crying (female with 3 kids).She felt the bare skin area of my jeans and asked me if I was wearing anything underneath them.(A)No I haven't got any.As I was the same age as her kids she gave me an invite to her place about 3 weeks later and I found out that the 3 of them weren't wearing u/w.Their mum(my teacher)told them that one of the kids at school didn't wear underwear so she let them try it to see how it felt.(2 girls 1 boy).

Hi !
For my culture, what is a Shang eye ?; and a 3/4 inches screening in this case ?

Take care !

If you know what a tuning fork,or letter Y with straight sides looks like you have an idea of what a shang eye looks like, the arms are about 4"(100mm)long,ends looped over to hold rubber bands about 14-15"(380-400mm)with leather pouch to hold small stone or marble these arms are again about 4"(100mm) apart (catapult maybe?)
(Screenings)Road metal crushed to about 3/4"(19mm).Place stone in leather pouch,hold leather pouch so stone wont fall out with thumb and 1st.finger,holding onto the bottom arm of frame in one hand and pulling back the leather pouch with the other and aiming it at whatever some damage may be the end result after releasing fingers from said pouch.(Can cause some trauma if aimed at body parts).Illegal in Australia (If caught).

That is what I called a sling shot

Atleast I described it well enough.Are they legal where you live?
John the Aussie bloke.

Wether it's legal or not in France, I just don(t know.
Anyway, I don't thing it's a big deal as long as you don't use it as a weapon against people.
I dont't thing they would sue you just for owning it, or even carrying it with you.
Take care !

Ah here in the philippines its called tirador

What a funny subject to talk about and meet people from different cultures etc.It's getting way off track about the no undie thing and I hope Nate doesn't go too crook about it.G'Day Nate didn't want you to feel left out of the conversation and I need your blog site again if possible or I will have to do the history thing at T.U.P.Forum to locate it.
Talk to you all tomorrow.

In the States this is a slingshot and is legal most places without limits. You can buy them at departments stores and archery / hunting shops. I have one and used it to advantage one winter when red squirrels moved into my roof. Here's a pic:

I ve got it!
We also had that in France among kids.
But it's such a long time I didn't see that kind of stuff. Kids on these days do not play anymore with that.
I can't believe it might be illegal; though it can make harm, this is not a gun.

Thank you for improving my English!

If you want to catch up with a bit of dinki di aussie lingo give us a hoy and I'll send you a copy or 2.C.J.Dennis the aussie poet his book is full of it.Aussie slang can be a bit daunting to learn but once you grab it ,it's the grouse mate.See you in the soup Charlie bye.

Hi John,interesting post.In South Africa we call them catapults and they were never allowed in school.A sure to earn a caning was to bring one yo school.
By the way,at what age did you start freeballing and did the teacher's kids carry on freeballing?

Mike,It's common to see guys wearing jeans with holes in them these days. Do you wear jeans with holes? What were you wanting to say?

We have a product overhere(australia)called Sodium Hypochlorite (pool chlorine).used raw this stuff makes absolutely magic holes in jeans,dripped onto where you want holes:bleaches fabric and after several washes material breaks down causing holes to appear.

I Wear Cut Off Wanglers With Holes In All The Right Places Mainly To Cut The Lawn And Wash The Car And Freeball in Them A Little Butt Cheek Showing

Nothing looks worse than some codger walking along the street showing his u/w through holes:much better to just see skin.

many years ago, it seemed all my jeans had a hole in them. The jeans were holey only in the crotch. I would wear these to do the yard. One day I was sitting in my neighbors yard talking with a number of the 'hood dad's. One of them made a remark about the hole in my jeans, since he could see my entire package. My wife threw them all away and bought me new jeans. I miss those jeans.

I have accidently worn the holy jeans to the office discovered I get so embarrassed and try to retrace my steps in my head to figure out who may have seen and rush home to change...only a block away.

In many years I had several pairs of jeans got some dime to quarter size hole in crotch area or near the back pockets.I keep wearing it then discarded or donate to goodwill when the hole got bigger.
