Bamboo shoots against global warming.

hmmmOne of the interesting things about trying to live a more “green” lifestyle is learning all about what a remarkable product bamboo can be, and how versatile it is as a sustainable material. Most bamboo is entirely organic, replenishes soil and sucks carbon dioxide right out of the air. Ha ha you’re not reading this at all are you because you’re looking at my new boyfriend. It’s really coming straight at us isn’t it?! Look out! Anyway, a friend sent me a link to this organic, “naturally antimicrobial” street jock (i.e. briefs you can wear as normal underwear or at the gym) that look good and probably feel pretty nice all up in there.

The funniest thing is the disgusting comments below the product. Jack “never gets tired” of wearing his pair, and most of the comments focus on how well the briefs “enhance” your “trophy shelf”, etc. There is also a nice review from a guy with a vacuum fetish. Shockingly, nobody commented how sexy it makes them feel to wear underwear with a minimal carbon footprint. 

[Oh! You can buy lots of textiles made from bamboo here. I have bamboo sheets and they're great. Also I should note that there is a site or two quibbling with bamboo as a socially responsible product. Any perspectives or facts I've missed on this one? Let me know. Ha ha you're still looking at that guy's stuff.]

    You like the sheets?

  2. the sheets are fantastic. they came from West Elm, though, which means they are probably bamboo woven together with the flesh of young children. So soft, so sweet. But now that I read pinko i can go to that other site and buy better more responsible sheets.

  3. [...] some large 8-year olds bought cigarettes, this man has remarkably pointy junk, and we broke TWO exclusives … reporting first on the shocking [...]
