We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Underwear that brings you pleasant liberty

This, linked to by the ever caring and concerned Dave Barry, gives a whole new meaning to the word freedom:

sacfree makes your sac free! In former times there were boxershorts or slips. Today there is sacfree, the first boxerslip of the world. sacfree brings you pleasant liberty (“bringt dir angenehme Freiheit”) and defines your necessity.

Briefly: A new dimension of comfort and liberty for your balls. And … sacfree is sexy.

Any ladies or gay gentlemen care to comment on that last claim?

Foreigners mishandling their private parts and the English language. Samizdata never lets you down.

But, watch out when some Germans want to define your necessity.

    And all this time I though Libertarianism was about freedom of the spirit. LOL!

  • Andy Duncan

    Is that photograph legal?

    It’s certainly put me off my Atkin’s diet nuts! 🙂

    Reminds me of the time when I was a medical student, and I spent entire mornings examining men’s testicles. (No I really am not kidding.) These things would’ve made it a bit easier, I suppose, only having to see the beans, rather than the pork.

    Jesus, being a medical student is not all it’s cracked up to be.

    Still, there were other mornings when I got to examine other parts of a different sex’s anatomy, but I’ll save that for another day 🙂

  • Regarding the last claim Brian, they work for me. In fact I’m totally sold on this whole concept. The Germans really are excellent at this kind of specialist merchandise.

  • R.C. Dean

    Their motto is hard to argue with:

    “For your testicles, only the best.”

    Well, yeah!

  • Amy from Texas

    These things are the opposite of sexy in my opinion (as is the hairless 13-year-old-looking model). They look strangely… surgical.

  • Amen, Amy.

    They just scream: kick-me here!

    Once again, I click on a link for a Not Safe For Work picture, and THEN it occurs to me that this probably isn’t a good idea.

    Thank you intuition. Once again you are a day late, and a dollar short.

    I suppose if the sysadmin types bring this to the attention of management, I’ll claim that I’m an aggrieved, closeted homosexual, and I’ll threaten to sue for discrimination should the suits reprimand me.

  • R.C. Dean

    Gregory – or, you could claim a medical condition that the sac-free helps alleviate, and offer to let them see for themselves.

  • I agree with Amy. They have a truss-like quality that suggests post-operative tenderness and vulnerability.

  • Chris Josephson

    I agree, Fred. I was thinking about how they made a great target. Ouch!!

    I wonder if the hole is a one size fits all sort of thing? Trying to imagine squashing the family jewels through the opening. Doesn’t sound very pleasant.

  • D2D

    Why wear underwear at all? I guess that’s an over 40 thing, Huh?

  • S. Weasel

    That’s the nastiest thing I’ve seen since former Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver tried to market pants featuring a “Cleaver sleeve” – basically a giant fuzzy sock stuck on the front of a pair of chinos.

    I ill-advisedly clicked it from work, too, but I figured I’d explain it as a…ummm…medical…thing of some kind. Nobody at work really wants to talk about plumbing.

  • Joe

    First impression: Kind of looks like its sticking its tongue out!

    On second thoughts.. Makes my eyes water just thinking about what happens if you try to whip these things on or off too quick… Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyooooooowwwww!

  • Mike

    Agree with Amy and David. Pair of these woulda been great after my vasectomy. What’s the matter with a pair of good ole boxer’s anyway? You can wander down to the end of the drive and pick up the paper without fear.

  • Tim Haas

    Have to respectfully disagree with Mike on the post-vas usage — you want those baubles firmly contained without the chance for position-shifting inertia or an errant breeze to disturb their recuperative slumber.

  • Ted Schuerzinger

    “defines your necessity”? I couldn’t find that phrase anywhere on the web-site. The sentence in question translates to something like “sacfree brings you pleasant liberty without having to hang completely”.

    At any rate, I don’t think I’ll be trying the boxerslip.

  • E Young

    Just a variation on the WVS knitting pattern for ‘Willie Warmers’.

    But of course, they are beautifully engineered!.

  • Brian Micklethwait

    Ted

    At the opening page, just press where it says “english”, and you get straight there.

    I copied and pasted my quote. It’s their translation, not mine. “Hang completely” sounds a bit better, but only a bit.

    Although, I did leave out lots of Rs in circles, which presumably means something about registered trademarks. So, no-one must call their invention a sacfree, or they might get me into trouble.

  • Mike

    Describing paper pushers like me as “who works vocationally much in sitting” is priceless.

  • jk

    The great words of Patrick Henry: “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”

  • Great Gerglische (Engleutsche?), very funny.

    “And the most important: No bothering fumbling by fitting on.”

    Quite so.

  • Julian Morrison

    I forsee a “humorous” version with a bullseye marking…

  • Ted Schuerzinger

    Brian:

    I never got a link to an English page, because the @#!$!@#! site is serving Opera a page without that link.

    You’d think that the authors, creating the page on a Mac, would think to do things right for all browsers and not just for IE. 🙁

  • Oh thank you for the wonderful laugh! It has made my day and cleared my sinuses.

    I wonder if my husband would find a pair as a nice christmas present?
