Furry Gay Critters Roaming Cuba

chest hairHaha, I was just speaking with a couple of my straight guy friends who recently went to Cuba. They, of course, were on the hunt for the female of the species. They headed down there with their little swim trunks and their big bushy chests, ready to pounce on Cuba Libre toting, unsuspecting, possibly scantily-clad ladies…

Much to their surprise, as they themselves were parked near a rum and cola station, they were approached by two very friendly hairy-chested fellows, looking to pounce. What was most shocking to my friends was not that they would be approached by a couple of gay guys, but that the gay guys were even more furry than they were. This disturbing truth has thrown their entire belief structure into question.

I wonder what the percentages are, of furry chests versus smooth? Does anyone have any numbers on this? I went swimming the other day and was passed in the lane by a carpet that knew the breast-stroke… very disturbing… as much back hair as chest hair… I swear if he was just a torso, you would have to feel for a belly button to know front from back… shudder… Okay, I have officially given myself the willies…

Lachey Leaves Simpson to live with Football Stud Matt Leinart

Deadspin:
“According to Sports By Brooks, they two have been hanging out together a lot recently, and Lachey even appeared with Leinart at USC’s weekly press conference which is not the type of thing that happens at, say, Iowa State. College football, we think, is getting really weird.
