Schwing


Let’s just establish this right off the bat, to avoid any arguments: It says “Party Time.” Not “Potty Time” (even though that would be great), not “Party Lime” (though that does sound tasty), and not “Larry Slime” (he prefers to be called “Lawrence”). We have that settled? Now, if so much as one person posts a link to a calligraphy site, I’m turning this blog around, so help me God.

It’s “Party Time.” Get stoked.

We Have Many Shirts. This is Not One of Them.


Mercifully, thanks to several rounds of hate crime legislation recently passed by the Tennessee General Assembly, these shirts are not available in BME Shop. That does not mean, however, that Perk and his attire are not a cautionary tale to be heeded by young men everywhere. For more family-friendly items, you know where to go.

A Goal is a Dream with a Deadline


I do not really know anything about soccer. In fact, everything I know about it, I pretty much learned from this blog post. But a cursory reading of Wikipedia will show that this impressive portrait tattoo is of Juan Sebastián Verón, an Argentine footballer currently manning the midfield for Estudiantes de La Plata. Apparently, Verón is kind of a big deal:

In 2004, he was chosen for the FIFA 100, a list of the 125 greatest living footballers selected by Pelé as part of FIFA’s centenary observances.

Wait a second — I’m no word scientist or nothin’, but why is the FIFA 100 a list of 125 players? Man, I really don’t understand soccer at all.

Two Points, One Calf


This horrific, poop-covered beautiful landscape shot featuring Mike hanging, indeed, from two hooks in his calf, comes of courtesy of the wizards at Swastika Freakshop in Radolfzell, Germany, who literally cannot get out of goddamned bed without creating something visually stunning.

The Damage Done


This is Jessica, who is a Baltimore transplant living in South Carolina, and who has apparently lost a contact lens, as far as I can tell, in this senselessly placed pile of wood shavings. Needless to say, she has some awful friends who would clearly rather stand around and take sexy pictures of her than help her look for important optical supplies. How disrespectful.

Right on Target!

This must have been a couple weeks ago or more but I was on one of my friend’s message boards checking out some photographs he had taken for an assignment in school. I can’t remember the exact back story to it but it was something about using targets. Thaddeus had posted 3 or 4 shots that he was working on and as I scrolled past this one of Brian Prish, I almost completely missed it!

Do you see what I see?

Thaddeus also has some amazing “hot naked modded girl” shots that would definitely suit the requests from the comment forums so he’ll be sending some my way for your viewing pleasure.

The answer after the break!

P.S. If you didn’t see it, check out Brian’s shin for the peak a boo shot of his Calm Logo Tattoo!

Better Living Through Bloodletting


The woman on the left writes in:

My victim and I have always had an intense connection. There is an animal nature to our blood play. Even those who do not like bloodsports love to watch us. Little did I know the very blood-squeamish man I just met who found this scene intensely erotic and so took the pictures for me (very well I might add) would later become the love of my life.
