What's with the Underwear Jokes in Odyssey?

How could you not guess that Whit wore briefs? Most older men do, so it isn't too difficult to guess.

I agree completly. Many 7 and 8 year olds won't think anything more of the underwear jokes than hilarious jokes.

Yeah, I too think they are silly, and also somewhat innapropriate. I'm just rather disappointed in the writers, because they're obviously capable of writing much funnier stuff without stooping to saying the word "underwear" for a quick laugh. It's an old joke that isn't funny anymore... At least not for an older Odyssey audience.... No offense anyone, this is just my opinion.

At least they're not dirty, I mean, kids stuff these days is lousy-have you seen these 'kids' movies? I think they're kinda trying to 'keep up'. If that's keeping up, I'd rather stay back. But, like I said, they're mostly just silly.

yeah, my little brothers think that they are SO funny, but they're not going to go around telling them or thinking about them in a dirty way!

I didn't find anything wrong with them. They're just silliness.

The jokes never bothered me either.
