This afternoon, the last segment of Power Lunch was devoted to discussing a line of underthings for men brought to you by Spanx. Previously women were the only ones lucky enough to be able to purchase a garment designed to suck and smooth rolls, worn underneath clothing, with colleagues being none the wiser. Now that dudes can apparently get in on the fun, it’s time for you to ask yourselves a serious question.

Did seeing Tyler Mathisen’s Before Spanx shot and After Spanx shot make you want to…

a. Run out and buy a pair for yourself before tomorrow’s annual review– TM looked good and you’ll be damned if your ass doesn’t, too.

b. Take a pass, thanks.

c. Unclear– can’t think on account of still being traumatized by TM noting that he doesn’t need the kind with the pouch that ‘enhance your bulge’

d. wild card.

    If I were allowed to “Spanx” all over Erin, Drury and MCC, I would lose 10lbs in liquid mass

    You, sir, are obviously an uneducated consumer.

    Is there really any other kind of consumer? If people were educated consumers, they would realize they have been pimped out by the marketing firms of this country.

    No this was on CNBC in 2010.

    “Tyler Mathisen is Vice President for Strategic Editorial Initiatives working closely with CNBC’s Business Development and Marketing teams on strategic initiatives and alliances.”

    Tyler, no amount of undergarments will help you with your resume or your fat ass.

    Am I the only one who digs Trish Reagan? I know she can look a little “dimmed lights” at times but I still very much would.

    Spanx are a rip off as they surely don’t hide my fat arse or gunt.

    No no, she is top notch and even better after the twins as her ‘fun bags’ are now plump and round.

    Not Erin. Her partner in life might kick your..you know.

    Yesterday, Simon Hobbs asked her if her partner would bid for 10.9 K blue diamond being auctioned by Tiffany and pop the question up.Her only reaction was “My goodness” and pretend she didn’t hear the question.

    Larry Kudlow ground up a spanx and snorted it. Mark Haines ground up a spanx and ate it. Figure it out, folks.
