You weren’t bored enough to look that closely.
Look-without enough information all you are going to get is a crapload of links to suggestive adverts, and that isn’t what you are looking for.
Is it?
No, what I want is for this thread to die, but as long as people keep posting to it I will need to keep following it. I didn’t care enough to remember the product, but the one @tricoteuse mentioned sounds about right.
I don’t recall seeing that anywhere in the rules. Have you considered posting “Not interested any more-Not going to post any more on this subject”?
It’s not and you know it. You are being purposely difficult. Please stop it.
Exactly. I used to wonder what, exactly, Midol was for. “It kelps with the pain during, and before, and even the pain that comes two weeks after.” After WHAT? As a male-type person, I had absolutely no idea what they were talking about. And the image of the packaging shown was removed of every word that could give a clue.
And as to modern pubic sensibilities, WeTV shows L&O reruns, and they censor the f**k out of them. Just the other day I saw one where there was a poster in the background of a woman wearing a bikini-like outfit, and her “area” was digitally blurred. This was originally shown on broadcast TV, people!
When I was a little kid, our one neighbor was a male model. Apparently, he looked exactly like what people think Jesus Christ looked like.
He ate a very specific diet, mostly vegetarian and low calorie so that he maintained a very specific gaunt appearance.
I’m not surprised. I’m not so old as all that, but looking at old photos, it’s a sort of skinny without being particularly fit look. You don’t see that much these days- it’s either people determined to be skinny and fit, or people who aren’t, as if the only way to be skinny these days in the US is to work out like a fiend.
Interestingly enough, it seemed to be a more common body style in Europe when I’ve been there, among both sexes. More of a skinny by default sort of look, rather than cultivated skinniness through fitness.
Or it’s just the current fashion/style. No need to overthink things.
It’s not just a sexual fetish, either – YouTube has a good collection of beard-shaving videos, usually men shaving big, Grizzly Adams-style beards. And reviews of shaving creams, razors, after-shave lotion, etc. One of my favorites is former World Beard Champion (yes, that’s a thing, gods help us all) Devin Cara, shaving off his huge beard. He complains to his wife the whole time, but when he’s finally fetched out from behind his hedge, he’s a strikingly good-looking man.
I wonder if part of the appeal of beard-shaving videos is the satisfaction of seeing chaos reduced to order. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of a man shaving off a neat, trimmed beard – it’s always some guy hacking down a wild bramble, the kind that looks like it’s home to a badger, two snakes, and a family of chipmunks.

Maybe there was a brand name? I see that censored all the time. T-shirts mostly, but I was watching a carpentery show the other day, and the guy’s little canvas apron thingy was blurred out. I assumed because it displayed a brand name, but it was funny because it was covering his crotchal area.
This is an interesting and popular thread. Thanks for creating it.
It’s my pleasure, my friends, to occasionally demonstrate what a perv I really am.

in my late 30s I had a job for 5+ years where beards were OK. So I grew a big, but fairly neat, one. Might’ve had a badger nesting in there, but no snakes or chipmunks.
Anyhow, I changed jobs and had to shave it off. My wife’s ringing endorsement of the change:
I liked you better with the beard. It hid so much more of your face.
I like to think she was kidding, but you can never be sure. Sometimes what sounds like a Freudian slip really is one. ![]()

I remember some decades ago when I was still reading Little Orphan Annie a story where Daddy Warbucks grew a big, bushy beard to go incognito for some reason. At the end of the storyline he exclaims, “At last I can shave this thing off!”
Punjab or the Asp replies, “I’ll stand by with a stick in case something jumps out.”
Exactly. I used to wonder what, exactly, Midol was for. “It kelps with the pain during, and before, and even the pain that comes two weeks after.”
Nowadays you see weed used for that porpoise.
This is the commercial I was thinking of when I saw this topic. I saw it a couple times watching the morning news shows before The Price is Right.
but as long as people keep posting to it I will need to keep following it.
Just keep an eye out for all the waggling fingers flying about.

Some of those aren’t fingers.
aha! Freudian slip. Not my president though, I’m from the UK
Mea maxima culpa!
I’m sorry for defacting your Britishness (Britishicity?) I wouldn’t have done that for all the world.
Of course I wasn’t replying to you personally, but to the Dope in general, which I regard as fundamentally a Merkin!
