Thanks, and no, I wasn't kidding, still learning everyday. It wasn't even in the on line dictionary of sexual terms.

As far as I know, commando is exclusively a "RichZism" as I have never heard it any where but here! I think it took me about six months before I figured it out!

Actually it isn't.
Going 'commando' means without underpants.

for example, there is a 'friends' episode where joey is wearing all of chandler's clothes, mentions he was going 'commando' and then begins doing stretching excercises.

I've seen this phrase mentioned once in a while.
Rich may have made this expression popular in this place, but he is not the inventor.

Sorry, I haven't watched TV for more than a year now and before that, very infrequently!

I wouldn't underestimate Rich though, if I were you.

I could easily live without TV, but it provides nice background noise when I am working on a razor.

And I agree 100%. One should never underestimate someone brave enough to shave in his adam's costume.

As far as I know, the origin of commando is from Vietnam. Due to the extreme humidity, soldiers that wore underwear had greater problems with "jungle rot" - wicked bad jock itch basically. Going commando provided better airflow and helped the problem.

I wasn't alive during Nam, so I cannot confirm this in any way, shape, or form, but it's a pretty cool and plausible explanation, so I choose to believe it.
