Fundoshi keeps me awake
I can't believe I didn't sleep well again last night, following that jigsaw puzzle thing the night before last . . .
My thoughts on Fundoshi just kept me awake.
:stewing:
It was already time that the morning sunshine shone in through the curtains, when I was asking myself hugging a pillow why it made me feel so unreasonable that Fundoshi was called as "Classic Pants."
I mean, Is there any possibility that calling Fundoshi as Classic Pants might set up a wrong equation as if the origin of pants is rooted in Fundoshi? I believe pants are the clothes that originated in the West, aren't they??
Can you call all those men's underwear such as trunks, briefs, boxer briefs and whatnot as "Modern Fundoshi" as a whole??
That's what I want to say!
Have you got it?
At first I thought I'd have a bunch of reactions like "Hahaha! What are you talking about~!" or just "Wow!" after my last message, but holy crap!
"It's been in the media for some years now"
"Hikaru-san you're a little behind, not knowing about Classic Pants"
I got emails like that!
So they think something is wrong with ME not knowing Fundoshi has been in style, right?!
I say those who wear Fundoshi are supposed to be the ones behind the times(about 200 years)! So you say I am the one behind the times?
Don't be silly.
By the way, my dad said he wore "Akafun" in schools' swimming classes. That's red Fundoshi.
"So I know how to gird it. Hehe." That's what he said.
"Wow . . . That's great . . . " That's what I could only say.
(Though I say it myself I think my dad is cute. Really.)
I wonder if some traditional schools still use "Akafun" in their swimming classes?
Oh, and you know, I found a great thing, which made me excited! I was listening to my dad's detailed explanation on the structure of Fundoshi and . . . Hmm? So the side part is corded like a string? And the back part forms into a string shape as well while wearing it? Hmm . . .

Tha
That's . . . !
That's very close to T-back isn't it?!
Uh-huh! So that means Fundoshi is the originator of T-back
Phew I feel good now. I think I can get a good sleep tonight
. . . I wonder how random I could possibly be. What nerve I've got to spend a sleepless night thinking about things like this. Well, please just take me as one of those delicate artists!
Bwa ha ha !!!
All I can say to conclude this is, say, that I would name Fundoshi "Classic T-back" if I were going to sell it! (I think I wouldn't sell Fundoshi actually, but you'll never know what will happen in your life)
I say, this name clearly represents that I have zero (or rather, a minus?) amount of business sense . . .
Thank God I'm a musician
