What it is:
A fluffy bathroom rug designed to look just like a (rather large) pair of tighty-whities.
Why we love it:
Let's face it, he (whether the "he" in this case is your husband, your boyfriend, your brother, your roommate, or your son) will leave his undies laying about. He will, in fact, probably leave them on the bathroom floor, much to your chagrin. There is something in the male genetic code that renders them nearly incapable of locating a laundry hamper, this "underwear blindness" as scientists have dubbed it, is a serious handicap, and it would be unfair of us to judge the men in our lives because of it. We won't judge, certainly, but we might poke a little gentle fun, now and then. Perhaps in the form of interior decorating choices. If we wanted to tease a guy suffering from underwear blindness syndrome, this cute little bathroom rug might be just the thing. After all, if his underwear are doomed to end up on the bathroom floor, you might as well make sure they blend in with the décor. Make a tongue-in-cheek statement about his cleanliness, and help keep his bathroom floor a little cleaner and warmer all at the same time. Not a bad job for one little rug.
