Why the groups fit
Underwear and practical jokes
BOXER, BRIEF, HIPSTER and THONG are underwear types. FOOL, PRANK, PUNK and TRICK all fit the idea of playing a joke on someone. PUNK may first suggest a music genre, but in this group it is a verb meaning to fool or prank someone.
Toilet-tank parts
CHAIN, FLAPPER, FLOAT and HANDLE identify components or controls inside a toilet tank. CHAIN and FLOAT can look like possible music references at first, but they belong together as fixture parts.
