Never miss a post! 
My 5 year-old and I were browsing the sale racks at American Eagle yesterday (well, I was browsing, he was complaining) and this song started playing on their sound system. We jumped up and down because we love this tune (it’s on a mix that I always play in my car) but also because we’re just terribly uncool.
As we made our way to the rear of the store we noticed that the video was playing on the back wall and before I knew it…we were treated to some animated butt crack. (See the video here.)
It was kinda cute, in a sexually charged, probably-not-appropriate-for-a-5-year-old kind of way, but I don’t mind a little exposed crack (as you may recall from my thong vs. commando article).
Later that day, my sister (yes, the pregnant one that’s in better shape than me) e-mailed me this story, “Woman sues Victoria’s Secret, claims injury from defective thong.”
Apparently, this woman sustained an eye injury when a decorative metallic piece from the thong flew up and hit her when she was putting it on. I saw the woman on the Today show this morning and her eye looked fine so I think it’s okay that I found the story more than a little humorous. But I must confess, I too have been maimed by a thong. Years ago, I wore one to the gym and suffered chaffing “south of Florida” (as the Real Housewives of New York City would say…don’t worry, I DO NOT watch that show…yes, I do).
Anyway, I’m taking this opportunity to once again extol the virtues of going commando vs. donning a potentially debilitating piece of fabric jammed up your crack (especially one with decorative metallic pieces).
Not that I’m advocating showing the world your ass…I’d prefer that I didn’t have to see anything from your back-end exposed. But if I HAD to choose between seeing your thong and seeing your butt crack, I would definitely choose your crack…because as Whitney Houston said so eloquently, “Crack is Wack!”

Anytime I see someone’s crack peeking out, I can’t help but remember the Saturday Night Live skit where Dan Akroyd was a repairman and kept his pencil in his crack!

Hahahaaha and Lori? double hahahahaha I had forgotten that!
I agree with you - i just can’t seem to go commando in jeans - feels all icky wrong to me.

I love that song, too! Animated butt clenches are cute too.

I have ordered one of the HipTs. We will see if they settle the debate once and for all.
