Sinister: Underwear

[Stanley,L]

"If fashion is your trade, then when you're naked, I guess you must be
unemployed" - my favourite lyric in the entire Pulp canon, and this is true
for a guy I know (know about?) who married a model. (Names omitted for
reasons of infamy).

I don't really want to comment on the Underwear debate without reading some
more on what others have contributed. (I erase my stuff because we have
limited H:spaces here at LSE and there might be some urgent communication
from the Government Dept.) But I guess I'm not fussy, though from time to
time I find new boxes of black knickers in my drawers courtesy of my mother
and she brought me back some silk ones from Beijing two and a half years
ago. Boring, just like Economics homework.  

As for the above reference to a lyric and its associations, are there any
(B&S or otherwise) that anyone else find relevant. I've posted my thoughts
on "Me and the Major" and "If You're Feeling Sinister" but "Lazy Line
Painter Jane" reminds me of a liaison I had at 12.40am on the northbound
northern line platform at Euston ("You will have a boy tonight, on the last
bus out of town..." well, train, but never mind).
