The boy is in his room, on his bed, reading in his underwear.
Me: You need to get dressed. With CLEAN underwear!
The boy: Got it.
Me: I’m serious. I’m making a note of your underwear right now. You are wearing your boxers with the stars on it. When you come downstairs I am going to check your underwear to make sure it’s clean.
The boy: Got it.
Me: Okay, so get dressed, tidy your room, and come on down.
15 minutes later. The boy ambles down, dressed, hair wet and styled.
Me: Da da dum! Time for the underwear check.
I peek.
Me: This is the SAME underwear! Boxers with stars!
The boy: I actually have two pairs of this underwear!
Me: So if I go upstairs and check the laundry hamper, there will be a pair of boxer shorts with stars on them on the top?
The boy: Um. On the bottom.
He’s going to be really popular in the dorms when he gets to college.
