To the men we call Dad

Dads are quite a thing. They are a unique blend of protector, mischief maker, provider and teller of terrible jokes. Some of you were dads from the very moment your kid took its first breath. Some wildly trusting person handed you this helpless, tiny human and trusted you not to drop it, break it or kill it. And you’ve spent every minute of your life since then trying to do just that and more. Some days were harder than others. Some days killing that ungrateful, insolent little snot was just barely off the table. But for as terrible as your kids could behave you loved them even harder. Others of you stepped up to another man’s kid and wore the...

Stuck on Spring

Spring is here.  People all over the internet are posting pictures of flowers, budding trees, baby birds, fruit-laden salads and pinkish-orange sunrises while pretending that they really love spring. But they do not really love spring. Because what they are not posting is pictures of itchy drippy noses and puffy allergy eyes thanks to hay fever.  They are not posting pictures of damp socks and ruined kicks because they accidentally stepped in a puddle. They aren’t posting pictures of the first mosquito bites of the season. They skip every chance they get to post pictures of chafed legs from sticky balls and/or chub rub. They are definitely not discussing the horror of springtime jock itch.  Oh sweet merciful crotch gods,...

The Amazing HappySac Multi-Tool

We’ve detailed again and again the pitfalls of men’s traditional boxers, briefs & tighty-wighties here at HappySacs. We’ve also told you all the great stuff a HappySac does. However, it has recently come to our attention that our product has been known to be a bit of a unitasker. While keeping the family jewels secure, cool, dry, and comfy is nice and all, nobody likes a unitasker. So we put our best minds on the task of uncovering less traditional uses for HappySacs. -Coin Purse: Not just for your coin purse and cash wad, your HappySac can also be used as a coin purse. -Light Bulb Changing Aid: Gone are the days of having to wait for the light bulb...

Protect your kiwis this summer

This picture should not make you uncomfortable. It should not feel painfully awkward to look at a pair of kiwis with their soft, thin skins roughly grated off, the fine hairs ripped away and their flesh exposed and raw. This should not bother you at all.But let’s be honest, it does bother you. If we were betting folk, we’d put money that just the sight of the beginnings of a summer fruit salad made you physically squirm just a bit. And we know why too.It’s because you can relate. That picture so perfectly represents the uncomfortable summer-time scene that is replayed all too often in your pants; chafed, rubbed, raw kiwis being cradled awkwardly by fingers of damp fabric. Summertime...
