Burger King is marketing a cologne for men that smells like flame-broiled meat, just the scent we women love on our men! And just in time for Christmas. I give you [Flame](http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28284679/)!\* **Warning** Link contains disturbing picture of the Burger King, not for the squeamish. \*Not recommended for Zoo workers. ---

From the above linked website: > [@](#): > > Here’s the Burger King mascot as you’ve never seen him. The company’s Web site describes the product as a “scent of seduction, with a hint of flame-broiled meat.” The associated image is one That Cannot Be Unseen. Be warned. Yeah, real bad idea. What “real man” wants to be Flaming? 😃 ---

Well, it was about time someone came up with this. I’ll tell you, rubbing yourself in bacon and showering with the blood of a freshly slaughtered cow every morning is such a hassle. ---

[Mel Brooks] It’s good to be the King! [/MB] I’m going to go out on a limb and predict this is going to be the number-one gag gift, bar none, for gay men this year. (This even beats the pants off the male-stripper\* coffee mug from Spencer’s Gifts a few years back.) It’s the perfect camp item for two friends of mine… one is positively fast-food-phobic, and his husband is the outdoor grillmeister. The only problem is with distribution; Ricky’s stores in NYC and one mail-order addy? The timing of the product rollout, beg the expression, stinks on ice. They needed to get this little baby out there a month ago, so people would have time to think it over, put it off for a while, and then finally order it for X-mas delivery. Flaming, indeed! - When the mug heats up, his pants turn invisible, ah-ooga! ---

Why? Why did I click? Gah! It can’t be that bad, says I. I can handle looking at the Burger…AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! :eek: ---

> [@](#): > > I’ll tell you, rubbing yourself in bacon and showering with the blood of a freshly slaughtered cow every morning is such a hassle. That isn’t as bad as having to run the blow torch all over myself afterwards to get that fresh “flame-broiled” scent. ---

I already smell like meat. That’s why I use cologne. Keeps the bears and mountain lions away.
