Obama Boxer Briefs, designed by Andrew Christian. A portion of the profits goes to Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. Um, yeah.

Now, I have nothing against David Beckham personally. I mean let’s face it, to many — or at least several — of my fellow homosexualists, he is hot.

But here’s the thing: a little hotness goes a long way with me. And much like that really cool song you dig at first but can’t stand to hear after the 10th consecutive play on the radio, too much is really just too much.

Unless you’re a masochist, then it’s not enough.

So it pains me to say, attractive though I find him, I’m tired of seeing Mr. Beckham in his underwear. I realize that to some this would make me a bad homosexual. To them I offer a smack upside the head.

A series of illustrations imagining male Disney characters — Aladdin; Hercules; Princes Eric, Phillip; and so on — as underwear models.

This one’s a couple of months old, and I never got around to posting it. Even so, it’s worth a look. (Possibly NSFW.)

As annoying as I often find Rachael Ray, I can’t help but share this video clip from her daytime talk show. It’s possibly NSFW depending on your employer’s stance on underwear.
