Commando

[Mehen]

Just had to make a thread to remind everyone that Commando is the best movie ever. EVER. Well, not really, but its hilarious! Hadn't watched it in quite a few years, put it in tonight -
Arnold is a comedic genius, even if he doesn't intend to be.

I happened to run across this movie a couple months ago when a Friend stopped over and I totally agree...the movie is ****ing halirious in places. Not to mention the one guy in it looks like someone I know!

You are being sarcastic right?
That's the first thing that crossed my mind as well.

Going commando (or to go commando) is the phenomenon of not wearing underwear under one's outergarments in public. In American slang, this phenomenon is also referred to as Freeballing (in the case of males not wearing underwear) and Freebuffing (in the case of females). A 2004 study of 7,000 people by the New York-based clothier Freshpair revealed that 9% of men and 7% of women go commando on a day-to-day basis. In British English, the use of commando as a verb is a relatively recent phenomenon but increasingly common. The phrase and phenomenon is often used in a declaratory (I'm goin' commado!) way (particularly by young women) to covertly create a frisson of sexual excitement or amusement amongst friends, sexual partners, etc. Modern British social mores generally recognise "going commando" as a "playful" behaviour (akin to a mild form of exhibitionism), and one that does not necessarily demonstrate an overtly sexual intent. Indeed, many people go commando strictly for comfort, feeling that underwear is unnecessarily restrictive and tight, or just preferring greater mobility for the genitalia. However, it has to be recognised that in many cases there is a recognisable sexual element to the behaviour.

Actually, I'm glad he wasn't talking about himself going commando.

Interesting, didn't know that

[KvHagedorn]

Oh, okay.. the post got me thinking about the film, so I forgot about that term. Odd that there is even a word for it..
