Speedos News Update: Speedos Are Now Globally Approved!!

[knikon]

I find it annoying how a speedo is considered much skimpier than a bikini by the average article writer... Now a kolaswim suit. That IS much skimpier.

52 percent seems somewhat accurate. Once I wore one of mine during a very crowded day at Venice beach. I got an outright "ick what a creepy disgusting guy" and a "hey good lookin" in a few minutes...

Have an Expedia story to tell Byron?

What you post reflects the thread on terminology and I have never booked a holiday with that company (and my opinion of marketing copywriters is down alongside second hand car salesmen as you might guess)

The one commenter hit the nail on the head.

In the UK vacuum cleaners are called Hoovers although Hoover haven't made them for years.
Copy writers aren't interested in the accuracy of what they write more in creating a reaction in their readers. To them and therefore the unwashed public speedos are tiny and anything tiny is a speedo.

Are you sure about that?

Hoover in the UK got bought out by an overseas rival, everything is imported and re-branded. The old Hoover factory not far from where Byron lives has been demolished.

...didn't know that - it was art deco Listed and Tesco took it as a supermarket.

Funny old world - the Dyson Turbo guy took his manufacturing to Malaysia for lower wage costs.
