 Spare underwear   THONG [spare = meager]
 Chop-chop   APACE [I like the symantic divergence]
 Board for nails   EMERY [I was thinking wood shop stuff]
 Hub near the Loop   OHARE [sounds like a lasso]
 Lets the fur fly?   SHEDS [not "fights"]
 
 ;D
 The theme words with misspellings (extra vowels together) was tough for me.  When I see thee e's in a row in a grid, I know I'm on the wrong track.  Same is true with two i's and two a's.  So I was forced to reconsider what was already correct.  It was fun.

 (NYET is common enough in our language to fit in.)
 
 :o
 When will be the next time that a grid will feature four contiguous i's?
