Is this the sports thread? Because while the rest of you nerds were all like, ooh free speech, Boston just pulled within two points.
That's the funniest thing I've seen all week.
(And Jesus, yeah, I've got the game on too. I never thought I'd say this but... go Celts!)
How did Ogged get some hairless guy with a slightly more muscular, but identically tanned, right leg to stand next to his left leg for that shot?
Is this one of those "photoshops" I've been hearing about?
Is ogged shaving half his body these days?
Without free speech, it would be illegal to say, "Fuck the Lakers and the rapist they rode in on." And that wouldn't be right.
PS - Fuck the Celts as well. I'm hoping for a surprise comeback from the Penguins.
How does shaving one leg help in a swim meet?
The title of the post demands that you link to the uncropped photo, o-honky.
9: ogged is fighting an unfortunate tendency to swim in circles.
How does shaving one leg help in a swim meet?
It's a circular course.
12: *snort*
My choices are:
a) figure out why ogged shaved only one of his legs
OR
b) figure out what this David Lewis article is all about
The title of the post demands that you link to the uncropped photo, o-honky.
The way my screen was when I clicked to read more, the top of the photo was off screen and I thought, 'This can't be a picture of ogged's cock.'
Whew.
16: I should have asked you about it long ago.
I think it's supposed to convey a sense of the before and after, Annie.
If ogged is doing this in his bathroom at home, I look forward to a post about hiring a plumber.
19.2: what are you, a federal judge?
Holy crap, if Boston can pull this off, I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna, um, I'm just gonna pee right here out of sheer excitement.
eh... been there, done that. honky.
If only there was a "hide more" button for my mind.
Why, I think that these Bruins might stand a chance!
24 is good.
As a foreigner, ogged has egregiously—if hilariously—misinterpreted the phrase "get a leg up on the competition".
Hubba, hubba.
Also, didn't ogged do a lot of bragging about how his pool is an outdoor pool? How did he wind up with a tan line like that, short of Victorian swimwear?
This is pretty exciting, and I don't usually like pro basketball.
Christ, 15 seconds and 3 TOs between them? I'm going to take that walk around the block now, so I'll be back in time for the finish.
Effing amazing. LA needs a miracle.
And the Celtics have Jesus (Shuttlesworth)!
Like 9, I don't get why one leg only. I can't wait to see pics of a t-shirt tan, or the farmer's tan. Welcome to America, Ogged.
I am getting gloriously olive-skinned, despite all the sun block I wear. This weekend at the beach won't help. My mom will think I look like a peasant in the rice paddies. I never liked that my boobs will be look like bright white headlights while my decolletage looks as warm and sunbrowned as Sophia Loren's. I wonder how the ladies of Unfogged deal with this. Do you just exfoliate a lot after the summer ends?
30: I think I'll preëmptively bleed the weasel, so I can avoid having to make good on 22.
I knew it: god loves Boston more than LA.
Looking at the Game Flow chart, I'd have to say that LA's mistake was the part where they went 10 minutes without scoring hardly at all.
Remember, folks, I played in HS - don't try this shit at home.
HA! In your face, Kobe! In your face, courtside celebrities! Faster, Boston, Kill Kill Kill!
I wonder how the ladies of Unfogged deal with this.
By posting lots and lots of pictures.
It's unnerving watching Pierce walk down the tunnel, a full five minutes after the game has ended, screaming to himself.
All is not lost, Lakers fans. Dick Bavetta will surely work game 5, so you'll at least get to take it to Boston.
36, 38: So you believe in the kind of God who gives His Beloved hardships (traffic, weather, 20thC Sox), and his Accursed blessings (OK, the traffic's a wash)?
I wonder how the ladies of Unfogged deal with this. Do you just exfoliate a lot after the summer ends?
Do you mean that the tan lines remain after summer's over and you wonder what to do about that?
43: I just believe everything that Paul Pierce says, including: "YEAH! C'MON! THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT!" And also that god was the reason that the Celtics won. Anyway, you have a better explanation for what just happened on my teevee?
I never liked that my boobs will be look like bright white headlights while my decolletage looks as warm and sunbrowned as Sophia Loren's.
It is a testament to the power of sports that I skimmed right over this earlier. Good heavens, Belle.
A gentleman ignores 33. Except to say, rowr.
Are there any reliable measurements of how much time shaving saves? It's just hard to fathom that it can get in the way all that much.
i sort of surprised that Ogged resisted this opportunity to penis blog.
btw, are you shaving your penis? Or is your swimwear water-resistant enough such that that particular part doesn't matter?
Hey ogged should make the original post a viral thing. Tag some blogger and they have to shave one of their legs and post a picture.
47: If this "god" of yours really existed, 40 would happen.
For the record, I've never dated a woman who tanned, so I actually can't quite imagine what this would be like IRL (although my guess is, Just fine!). But I don't actually desire revealing pics of BL.
Are there any reliable measurements of how much time shaving saves? It's just hard to fathom that it can get in the way all that much.
What's even harder to fathom is that it makes a difference in cycling (air vs. water). Yet even pretty casual racers do it. Makes no sense to me.
52: And I don't desire to post them. Although I miss Becks "for the ladies" posts, which I found very useful.
We saw the A's almost kill the Yankees last night. Totally awesome. Almost made up for their choking against the LAA (Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, WTF is wrong with my hometown) on Saturday. I have never been good at keeping hometown allegiances. My family is one of rabid Lakers fans, and I have always liked the Kings better. No idea why. Maybe it's a form of rebellion. Also, the Lakers have no heart.
53: My understanding is that cyclists do it for all the scrapes and scratches and subsequent bandage-removal (ow! hair!).

My money says he's tuckin' & tapin' in classic drag queen style.
This blog rules.
Also, I stopped watching the finals after those first three games. I have my limits.

"Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me."
Notice that ogged's right-leg tan goes higher up his leg than does his left-leg tan, and that, as he's standing, the right leg appears skinnier than the left (though that may just be an optical illusion owing to its hairiness).
What sinister messages might he be sending his Persian brothers in this way?
61 is one of the greatest scenes in movie history.
I wonder how the ladies of Unfogged deal with this.
Such tender concern for the laydeez. But that's unfogged...
I missed 44: Yes.
You mean tans fade for other people? Mine stays for quite a while, even though I'm an academic and at one point never understood what Ogged was complaining about with the overcast weather, so little did I venture away from my home office.
I am now commuting to school five days a week to use a campus computer to code sexual harassment cases into variables, four hours a day, N =1000+. I am getting tank top lines. It is good to get out of the house though, I suppose, although one generally need not to with Remote Desktop (although I'm trying to figure out if it will work with Vista, and if my prof will let me).
screw it. I'll shave my right arm and report back on how much my tennis game has improved.
Frankly, I'm a little freaked out by the whole thing.
Well you're supposed to stop when you get to the part the bathing suit covers.
One of the interesting aspects of doing it from early teens through college was having it go from a quick and easy hour to a two night ordeal that had me questioning whether the negative impact of all the bending and contortions on my muscles outweighed the punitive putative benefits.
Frankly, I'm a little freaked out by the whole thing.
Ogged had never seen his entire penis before.
"punitive benefits" is a happy malapropism.
Do the jammers give one a performance boost with breast stroke, or is it just modesty?
when asked if you've shaved your penis, not responding means "yes"
There was a rumor going around my HS one year that the boys hockey team got together and shaved their testicles as a group in order to psych themselves up for the playoffs.
For an Iranian, shaving that thing adds at least two optical inches.
Pshaw, Ogged. You just posted this because you've got a gay guy reading your blog now.
Things I have discovered underneath the hair. 1) My arms are actually kinda rockin'. 2) I have manboobs.
And now, to bed. Everything feels very strange against my skin.
you've got a gay guy reading your blog now
You're not the only homo around here, homo.
And the homoerotic subtext of Unfogged is long established.
oddly enough I have more or less the reverse tan line.
further to 77, we're all just a jovial bunch of slap-your-ass, cup-your-balls, pull-your-dick dudes.
79: You're right, it's like a Slavic water polo team in here...
oddly enough I have more or less the reverse tan line.
You wear short shorts and over the knee socks?
All I can say is: "Wow! Do those go all the way up?"
Umm, wow. Yesterday his soul, today this thighs, what will tomorrow bring?
33-Belle, I agree with AWB that tan lines can be sexy, but if they really bother you and you want your boobs to be "as warm and sunbrowned as Sophia Loren's" than use a self tanner.
83: Very early on in our relationship, I made Fleur cry by remarking that I hadn't seen boobs with a tan line in a long time (living, as I then did, in the land of oben ohne.
Such a charmer. It's a wonder she ever fell for me.
83- it wasn't so much the surprised/negative reaction to the tan lines that made me cry, it was the "Mambo #5" recitation of all the German girls he had been with who didn't have them.
Another vote that tan lines on women are teh sexxxiest.
it was the "Mambo #5" recitation of all the German girls he had been with who didn't have them.
I might have gotten by with that alone, but when I attempted to quantify them all on the CIE Whiteness Scale, that was when I got myself into trouble.
87: Well, no wonder, you effete elitist. Shoulda stuck to PANTONE.
Yes, true. You thought more factual backup would make your case. That and the fact that there was not a tan line to be found on you. Oh, yes and that reminds me: the tiresome, lengthy, and relentless extolments on the virtues of nude sunbathing. "I nude sun bath in the park near my office in the summer months..."
Wow, Fleur. Knecht is really lucky that you stuck with him.
Very early on in our relationship, I made Fleur cry by remarking that
"in this relationship one of us has the tan lines, and I think it's pretty clear which one."
90: She knows that, and I know that, but I'm sure it's nice to have it confirmed.
Fleur, on the other hand..... will be rewarded on Heaven?
decolletage looks as warm and sunbrowned as Sophia Loren's.
Wow, that's great. do you write pr0n, Belle L? Under some other pseudonym? Would you be willing to start?
nice, young looking legs, already half-tanned
i couldn't have a look yesterday, there were only mcafee letters, f. antivirus
thought it's something nsfw
don't know about legs, but hands i thinks could be telling about one's character, deeds or fortune
my driving instructor two yrs ago was an Iranian, a talkative friendly guy, he said the Persian fortune-tellers are the best, his wife sometimes consults through the phone with their family astrologer back in Iran
i wonder whether Ogged also knows some tidbits of that ancient knowledge, the palm reading, fortune telling etc
it would be interesting to read
/a request for the future posts (please)?
good luck with the swimming competition!
The ancient Lur wisdom is not to be revealed to crusaders and Mongols, read.
my instructor was very willing to introduce me to his consultant
i refused just b/c i'm kinda superstitious and it would be like calling a bad luck if everything is going pretty normal to consult an extrasense
Ah, what a great picture. I predict that Ogged will find that he likes it, what with the odd sensations on the skin, but he will never admit this!
everything is going pretty normal
though now things are changing a bit
i have two-three pretty difficult issues to ponder about
hence my request
I think I deserve the 100th comment on this one.
Perhaps the best series of comments around 100 ever.
Good luck, but in the event of a Traumatic Swimming Event (TSE) you'll be pleased to know that an effective therapy seems to have been found.
Athletes who have experienced an upsetting competitive experience not only may perceive competition negatively but relive the upsetting performance event when they approach competition or contemplate competition which results in an increase in anxiety. EMDR was performed with competitive swimmers to aid them in reprocessing an upsetting swimming event.
EMDR is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, as far as I can tell they strap you down with open eyes (think Clockwork Orange) and have you relive the event while your eye follows a dancing light. So go out there and perform, no worries, we can fix you right up afterwards no matter what. (They give a series of vignettes at the end of the article, the last is entitled "Mr. 50 Breaststroke".)
Definitely a Flickr-worthy picture. If Labs' colon ever gets old, this would make a great replacement.
Knees are oddly shaped.
Everyone's knees, not just ogged's.
If Labs' colon ever gets old
Given the heavy use to which it's regularly subjected, something that's likely to happen before its time.
already half-tanned
Well, usually you try to get the whole thing at once. Doing one half and then the other is fraught.
Pshaw, Ogged. You just posted this because you've got a gay guy reading your blog now.
Oh, honey.
EMDR is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, as far as I can tell they strap you down with open eyes (think Clockwork Orange) and have you relive the event while your eye follows a dancing light.
Not so much with the strapping down or gluing the eyes open. It's been remarkably effective with PTSD, which I find striking partly because it's so low-tech. Whether losing a race because of a haphazardly shaven leg qualifies as actual trauma, I couldn't say.
I was very reluctant to use it (non-PTSD-related) because it sounds so sketchy and New Agey (tapping into memories stored physically in places other than our brains), but it was pretty cool.
Ur not gay ur a paladin.
If anyone else here were a WoW player I could link to a funny video. Le sigh.
I figured that you were referring to the fact that you were able to crop that picture awfully far up your thigh. I thought I had the littlest prick in the world, but maybe I'm wrong.
112: Not so much with the strapping down or gluing the eyes open.
Yeah, a slight embellishment there on my part ...
Whether losing a race because of a haphazardly shaven leg qualifies as actual trauma, I couldn't say.
Well other more mortifying possibilities lurk. Two examples: same guy same outdoor meet:
1) Literally rescued from the water near the end of 100 butterfly in a crappy no-gutter long course pool; the field finished just far enough ahead of him that he got the finishing backwash wave just as he was taking a breath and swallowed all water, another two water breaths in a row and he was toast.
2) Managed to somehow miss that the 50 (1 lap) started at the other end, and got up on the blocks for his heat to gaze across the pool at the other 7 competitors.
(Admittedly, we did very little long course.)
i thought how one takes the picture of one's legs
maybe bpl helped you to take the picture or did you bend forward to take the picture?
then some muscles would look stretched, no?
or you put the camera on the chair and used a remote
once i tried to take picture of my hands doing the house figure it was impossible to catch only the hands and not part of the torso without anyone's assistance, although i used the webcam recording to keep my hands free
115: Near-drowning definitely cranks up the traum-o-meter. If 115.2 counted, though, EMDR would have to be a required class in 5th grade.
53: The cycling/triathlete shaving isn't really rooted in anything. Sure, it might be for nicks and scrapes and shit like that, but it might also be because our legs just look that much better when shaven as compared to hairy. Which also explains why the picture was taken with only one leg shorn.
118: I'd always heard it was to make it easier to write numbers on you.
Well, for triathletes. Cyclists swear up and down it's because of road rash.
120: If it's road rash, getting hair stuck in it isn't going to hurt any more than the rash itself. Also, cyclists lie. As for triathletes, we don't shave our arms, or our chests, or our backs or heads. Just our legs.
Also, cyclists lie.
Not denying that.
Wasn't ogged giving B shit for having veiny boobs? Mr. ogged, you have veiny thighs under that body hair, which means that you too would have veiny boobs, were you a woman.
120/121: it's not the pain, it's easier to clean up the road rash, hence less infection risk. But yeah, mostly bs.
