And I thought normal Speedos were bad enough. Slightly NSFW
[More:]
On the Speedo website, the airbrush has prevailed.

*Checks Olympic timetable for men's swimming events ...*
Er. Yikes. Well, not much you can do about that, I suppose.
And he does seem to be going for the Vitruvian Man look so I guess it works for that.

The problem with the old budgie smugglers was not their brevity, but the fact that people who shouldn't wear them - did. The same will go for these - mark my words. If you're at all sensative about seeing a fine, strapping young man squeezed into the only thing tighter than the BeeGee's white flares, wait until some old geezer with a hairy pot gut and dangling scrotum tries to pour himself into them.

I probably should go into the eyebleach business...

I know something worse actually. Watching Lee Scratch Perry perform in Amsterdam 2000, he was wearing a silk-something getup - it was a pretty commonly-shaped shirt worn not tucked in, and very baggy pants. After a while the venue got hot and he opened the shirt revealing a very fit sixpack torso for his age but now the shirt wasn't covering the pants, and every time he leaned either direction the super-silky (almost parachute-material thin) pants would reveal that he was going commando, and he was also hung like I don'tevenknowwhat, my god. You could see practically everything and I had to look away I got so distracted. No matter how naked a pop-tart gets on stage in my mind that will be the most revealing stage-getup ever.

A swimming costume like that requires a certain amount of self confidence. Good to see this chap is all aligned straight and narrow to reduce drag.

I was looking for a video done on the Daily Show by Ed Helms in which he was covering a ban on speedo swimsuits in Cape May, New Jersey. He went "undercover" wearing a speedo with a "crotch cam" which was allegedly a camera in his crotch but was really a couple of golf balls in matching material, dangled in front of a regular camera carried at crotch level. It was pretty hilarious.

Hmm, something tells me that a painting entitled 'Benefits Supervisor Sleeping' is not what you are all talking about here. At least, I hope not. If there is a permalink to the image you are talking about, let me know and I'll amend the post.
