Need a smart-ass remark for a laundry mix-up.
Ever since their drier burned their house down back in the late 60s, my grandparents have refused to keep a washer and drier in the house. So they bring their clothes to the laundrimat.

Anyhow, somehow we came home with all of our laundry... plus something I didn't recognize. It was kind of dark-pink and pink-orange striped, I assumed it was a sock or stocking until I picked it up and realized... it's a pair of Victoria's Secret panties.

So next time I'm at the laundrimat I'm gonna tell them that they got something extra mixed in with my laundry and give it back to them. But I can't just do that. I also need a smart-ass comment to go with it. My first instinct is to say something like, "I like the color, but it's just not my size."

Any other suggestions?

1. Wear them on the outside of your pants.
No remark necessary that way.

3. Maybe they'd make a nice hat instead.

6. Yeah... but odds are good that they've been on someone else's crotch.
And despite being washed recently, that's still just a little too close for my personal comfort level. :P

4. Complain that they shrunk your party undies.
What the heck.

10. Unfortunately they know me there well enough to know that I'm not married.
:P

8. I would say something like...
..."Here. Your brother left these at my place last night." It would be funny, especially if the person you're saying this to does indeed have a brother.
