    My wife and I aren’t a queer couple, but memes like this make me feel like we’re missing out.

    Posts like this make me wonder why all of my underwear is black, it’s not like anyone else will see them!

      I knew a music teacher that only owned black underwear, on the in theory that if her underwear showed during a student’s recital it wouldn’t be obvious. (Her recital uniform was all black.)

      Are your a music teacher?

          Oh this is simple, you’re a goth. Your music taste can now only be Depeche Mode, The Cure, HIM, & London after midnight. Please see Thagasaur on your way out for your obligatory palmette tattoo.

            I looked up palmette and saw a feature of art deco buildings that I haven’t really seen in tattoos, then looked up “palmette” tattoo and even with the quotes, it was all saw palmettos. What’s a palmette tattoo look like?

                That’s the architectural feature that came up, so I probably spelled it correctly, but it was the same as how I spelled it in the comment.

                I have never seen that kind of tattoo before and many of my friends would probably be considered goth (but we’re olds and I’m not observant). Does it reference something?

                  I usually see it on the top of the hand, and I’m old too. Wonder if it’s regional. I’ve seen it mainly in the southern US

    I’m “only” ace with usually straight partners but I am definitely in the neon underwear camp. Excepts it’s parrots, tucans and flamingos. Life’s too short to give a shit.

    They’re space corgis, I’ll have you know.

    And I’m the one with the boring underwear. The cuts I like tend to come in solid colors, maybe sometimes with flowers.

    DAmnit! I thought my wildly eclectic bright red underwear with zippered pockets let me be queer enough in my sea of solid colored maroon/black/blue/and-the-one-odd-blue/green/brown/maroon-camo underoos. Now you’re telling me I have to get a partner with drawings/designs?
