I'm going with #4. That was my only way to explain it at the time ; ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants/page/2#post-1173986 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 00:02:43 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1173986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This story just made my day! I'm not sure which part was best... Picturing a man chasing down a woman to hand her the panties she dropped, or her perfect response. Talk about gracious and witty! I love it...</p> <p>I had the unfortunate experience of sitting in church and reaching into my purse for something, only to have a lacy thong fly out and land in my lap! Thankfully no one but my husband saw it happen... It's a miracle we both didn't fall out of the pew laughing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants/page/2#post-1173835 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 21:18:37 +0000 marneyb 1173835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, a good story! And what a wonderful response that the actress gave! And it does make you think about what goes in the dryer together.</p> <p>I was 15, on public transit, when the elastic on my school uniform bloomers broke and they turned upside down, hanging from the leg elastic. All I could do was laugh (and blush). My school mates made sure that everyone on the train car saw. And bloomers were never cool, at least past 1900.</p> <p>Thanks for the laugh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants/page/2#post-1164903 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 19:04:59 +0000 El Cee 1164903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dying of laughter… what a story! I am thinking scenario #4 as I&nbsp;am a frequent victim of post-dryer&nbsp;disappearance of&nbsp;undies and socks. (Now I will have to be better about checking my laundry before I put it away.) Gotta say that the lady handled the situation with much grace. What a perfect line! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants/page/2#post-1164890 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 18:47:47 +0000 ironkurtin 1164890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I seem to recall a pair of panties somehow embarrasingly winding up in my handbag, I don't remember how but it wasn't sex-related, I swear.&nbsp; I think maybe I took them off at the gym and they fell into the wrong bag.&nbsp; But when I discovered it I spent all day in agony hoping they wouldn't fall out when I went looking for my subway pass. Not that anyone would have noticed in NYC, but still. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants/page/2#post-1164874 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 18:30:23 +0000 rachylou 1164874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bowie is always necessary.</p> <p>OMG.

I wonder if I could use that line in reverse--"Since we're likely to become SUCH good colleagues....." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants/page/2#post-1164814 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 17:12:50 +0000 froggiebecky 1164814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote 3 or 4 as well. I've had it happen with both undies and socks, though thankfully, only in the privacy of my room!&nbsp;</p> <p>And I love her line and will use it for all future embarrassing situations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164794 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 16:51:49 +0000 KikiG 1164794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would vote for choice three. </p> <p>From working in retail when I was in college, I got in the habit of grooming other people--tweaking their clothes, fixing their collars, tying bows. In a fitting room, this is not a terrible thing to do, nor directed at a close friend. But boundaries should be observed! One day at work, when I was in my 20s I learned my lesson about this, and learned it good. </p> <p>I saw something odd sitting on a coworkers foot. I leaned down . . . and delivered an entire pair of pantyhose. It was like a magic trick, only worse, and they kept coming and coming and coming. She had obviously taken off pants and pantyhose at the same time, and put the pants back on, not realizing the pantyhose were lurking in one leg. She was mortified, snatched them from me and fled. I was mortified too. Lesson learned! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164789 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 16:44:58 +0000 Sara L. 1164789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL - I'm going with #4 over #3, mainly because I don't like to think of your VO director picking up dirty underwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164759 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 16:11:52 +0000 K. Period. 1164759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's so HANSEL! &nbsp;</p> <p>I would guess #4 as most likely , but #3 is possible too. &nbsp;Great anecdote!&nbsp;</p> <p>(Sorry. Second pic is entirely unnecessary. &nbsp;Unless you are me. &nbsp;In which case, Bowie is always necessary.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164716 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:16:37 +0000 Elizabeth P 1164716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Which is precisely why I don't put synthetics in the dryer...&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164703 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:07:30 +0000 Thistle 1164703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4, I have to think #4,.&nbsp; </p> <p>Although, heck, the idea of the quickie in the bathroom makes for a much better story! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164701 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:05:53 +0000 Janet 1164701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, the last scenario has happened to me. Fortunately, I realized it in my car, before I was out in public, when I looked down and saw bright purple hanging out of the hem of my black pants.</p> <p>And now I'm wondering if a well-known VO artist I know has ever worked with you guys. She does cartoon work and is a musician too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164696 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:02:55 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1164696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The laundry/dryer thing has happened to me. &nbsp; More than once. &nbsp; And <u>thank goodness,</u> never in front of another human being! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164694 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 14:59:15 +0000 ironkurtin 1164694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I honestly think mister VO director thought it was a sex thing, like she'd stripped for a quickie in the potty and forgot all about her undies when she re-dressed.&nbsp; He was trying to figure out when and where she'd even have time to fit it in during the VO sessions!&nbsp; Alas, the reality is so much more mundane. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164685 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 14:48:35 +0000 Anonymous 1164685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4</p> <p>She sounds really cool. &nbsp;What aplomb. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-solve-the-mystery-of-the-falling-underpants#post-1164552 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 12:30:51 +0000 Kim 1164552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's happened to me, and I WISH I had known about the line that your VO friend used!!! &nbsp;</p> <p>I'm going with the laundry line...Yeah, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it!
