First, if you’re like me, and your thirst for all things Hoffy knows now limit (and WHO is NOT like me, I can only wonder!) the Post-Gazette has a Hasselhoff Podcast - or, “HoffCast” - available. Now you as well as I can enjoy the dulcet, supple tones of The Voice of Hoff in the privacy of your own earphones. The public doesn’t need to know. Thanks to Jennifer for the link.

But never doubt that the power of the Pittsburgh blogger is deep and mighty: Bitchery reader Michelle sent me a link to yet another Pittsburgh based blog, wherein the art of the day via eBay is fruity-licious. Literally. Between that guy and this dude, and OMG this dude over here, I may have inadvertently stumbled upon the new and future trend of erotica cover art: eBay nudes.

Gee. Thanks, Pittsburgh.

Hmm.  The zebra in the second pic is not much like any known species of zebra - stripe patterns all wrong.

What’s that?  You were not looking at the zebra’s backside?  Huh.

Okay, I understand that English is NOT this guy’s first language (or gal, or whoever is running this ebay store).  But how hard is it to understand “nude”?  That first guy IS NOT NUDE.

Still, I am glad to know that

This painting is in very excellent attribute.very nice colors was presented throughout the painting.It is really museum quality that so many famous collector want to own it.Please bid it with confidence.We strongly to commend it.

Especially about the black and white painting (and Esri Rose is right, that guy looks like an alien and is creepy).

These actually make me nostalgic for those Boris Vallejo and Frank Frazetta covers we were discussing earlier.  And what about those naughty versions of Disney heroes?!?

Thanks for the chuckle!

Bare Butt + Bare Zebra= Chafing.

He is either REALLY sore or has calluses you just do NOT want to see.  Get this man the Monkey Butt Power STAT!

Not a problem.  In the 5th century BC, naked men riding naked horses were commonplace.

In a world where people get all huffy about the over-the-top sexuality of pink shoes, these pictures exist?! Oy gevalt.

We humans are weird.

I thought the zebra was plush because the nude butt looked like it was sinking into it.  Maybe it is a pantomime zebra.

Maybe it is a pantomime zebra.

That would be one explanation for the zebra’s total improbability.  That, and the fact that it is a truly terrible painting.

The wide-angle lens zebra ass was just disturbing.  The guy on top of him?  Thanks to you guys, all I can picture are some truly disgusting calluses.  Uhm, eww!  (And watermelon?  Is it a metaphor for really big, uhm, fruit?  Like some sort of uberbanana?)

Speaking of The Hoff, Target is now carrying a line of Hasselhoff greeting cards. They are fan-freaking-tastic.

Whoa there!!! Help!!!  The first picture? Who the devil visualized that fellow, or for that matter the zebra, as anatomically correct? That is the strangest musculature in a torso and it looks like he has an enlarged spine or tail growing out of his ass crack! As for the second pic, as Esri Rose says

That last one looks like an alien. Ew.

*shudder* *shudder*

Ahem. I believe the technical term is hofftastic.

Right you are.

The greeting cards are hofftastic.

Those are extremely disturbing paintings. And where are the ones who were complaining about the pink shoes now??

On the other hand, I will need to find those greeting cards. Did anyone watch The Hoff on Talent last night?? It’s a secret vice, don’t tell anyone.

Hey Sarah! I think you discovered the precursor to Poser book covers.

Those paintings are mouth droppers for me. The 1st one is high-larious and reminds me of last night when my kids were at their first swim meet of the summer and a boy/teen from the other team was wearing a shimmery watermelon speedo to compete in.  I can only hope he was being ironic.  That may be a lot to hope for in the suburbs.

Umm I think the last “guy” was in a Discovery Channel special on transgender people a couple months ago.
