They come in leopard????
Can we get a PdC logo on that one?
Throughout the stage all I kept on thinking was: ‘don’t finish second, you can’t finish second again’.--Heinrich Haussler
Leopard! LOL
They did not have the leopard model when I made the PC snuggie prizes. Awesome!!
Can you actually 'get wild' in a snuggie?
BAH!!!!....Cavendish?!

well I could just repeat mine from the other threat, about the aerodynamic handle and cancer-hating lid… ;)
The Livestrong teakettle - it whines when done
Oh, and “The WTF Blanket – now with even less f**k”
Staring at the swim team gets you killed by a gang of dancing ninja men who know how to twirl.
oh man,
they just killed the idea of leopard being sexy. Ha, one size fits all. baaaaaaby.
Hands free – for the fr***in remote. Yeah, sexeeey
Leopard was never sexy. Ever.
Unfortunately, this lesson has not yet reached all of society (especially those who need it most).
I give you credit
for knowing the skit, for knowing who Imran is, and for actually meeting him.
I would not have expected any of those things from a Statesider.
brilliant!
give this man a snuggie!

People facing cancer need education and support, but most of all, they need hope. We created the LIVESTRONG collection for people who believe in survivorship, and in living life to the fullest. Like each piece in this vibrant collection, our LIVESTRONG by Chantal whistling loop teakettle with ergonomic handle and enamel-on-steel finish features the signature golden yellow and embossed LIVESTRONG logo as a tangible reminder of how lives touched by cancer can become lives filled with hope. A portion of Chantal’s sales from the LIVESTRONG collection goes directly to the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Give the gift of hope with LIVESTRONG by Chantal. Chantal teakettles are perfect for all stove types, including induction. 1.8-qt. functional capacity. Limited warranty.
OMG

“I used to take 42 tablets a day. No, can’t name them but my doctor said to take them so I did. Then I got this kettle and my life changed for the good. (Continues sobbing…) My life is filled with hope now, this ergomnomic handle is the key. Am a bit worried about the limited warranty though, now things are looking so on the up…”
what, no Livestrong tea cozy....
BAH!!!!....Cavendish?!

“I’ve just paid $59.99 for a kettle, you can f… off if you think I’m paying another $9.99 for a tea cosy.
Thank god the doctor left me with four tablets a day – three I dont’ know the name of, and the laudanum!"
you can f… off if you think I’m paying another $9.99 for a tea cosy
Hm, I have been searching for a new slogan for the PdC…

I hate that guy
they totally ripped off survivorman – except survivorman has no camera crew and he has to set up the camera himself for all those ‘walking away’ shots then go back and get the camera and set up the next shot, and he only packed 3 matches a safety pin and a harmonica.
Dude, I can see my house from here
why not a Livestrong Sharpie?
Then you could just write “Livestrong” on everything around the house, even if it’s not yellow.
is this a memorial to stage 14?
The perfect place to store your tempest?
Threadjack!
(It’s the teakettle’s fault, I was thinking of old riders sitting around the old rider home, sipping tea made from boiling water from the Livestrong teakettle and…)
This just in….

Pretty sure you've got the first four and the last one right
Klöden will probably be there, too.
The really intriguing thirtysomething name to throw into that mix: Floyd Landis.
Nah, they wouldn’t. Would they?
You can't fool me
If this were true then there’d be a spot for Bob Roll – he’s earned it…

The Livestrong tea kettle for your healthy green (envy) tea
(and it doubles as a centrifuge).
[I’ll escort myself off the premises. Billdozer gave me directions to his place . . .]
Hi, I'm Lance Armstrong...
… if you don’t use my Livestrong Tea Kettle then fuck you.
Respect the Shit List; it respects you.
Hi, I'm Lance Armstrong...
… if you don’t use my Livestrong Tea Kettle, I’m coming to your town to personally whip your ass on your club ride, and then I’m taking your wife/girlfriend out for drinks (and sex).
Top of the pile so far....

None of you have managed to come up with anything dirtier than Bethie
And I haven’t even seen Bethie’s caption yet.
perfect for teabagging with just a single bag?

That is an image
I never, ever wanted in my head. Give me back my unsullied mind!
i'm sorry.... i really am
i just couldn’t resist… it was too easy
or "there's no I in tea"
gotta give my husband the credit for that one
Excellent
My favorite so far, but Jens is the judge. And my apologies for stating a preference because it means that you almost certainly will not win now. But, if you do win, you must share the Wild Side™ Snuggie with your hubby.
and then we will both have to share the Snuggie with our cat
who will certainly claim it by covering it with hair. Especially with that print. Mrrrowrrr!
it would scare the crap out of him (and me)
but my cat would still hump it and my husband announced it’d be great “for cyclocross and for watching races at the velodrome.”
I’m just afraid now. Oh and i suppose it should have been “There is no i in tea…” Add "Pistolero, " at whim.
"Available at IKEA's everywhere"
I do mind, the Dude minds. This will not stand, ya know, this aggression will not stand, man.
damn you, you beat me to it...props

It spouts hot air! It boils with indignant fury!
And it takes longer to finish than other kettles!
For a pleasing reminder of how life used to be, get a Livestrong whistling kettle.
and
makes loud, shrill noises at the end.

The Livestrong Teakettle
for the poncy fuck who believes that the ten cents donated to the Livestrong foundation from this sale makes a difference.
Excellent use of the word 'poncy"
I do mind, the Dude minds. This will not stand, ya know, this aggression will not stand, man.
oh if it isn't a winner
at least it’s a zinger…
Bethie, do they really talk that way at your end of the state? :^)
double word score for poncy
I might have gone with poncy little git.. in true Python tradition.

On a serious note,
Last week I heard on the radio that the LAF (livestrong.org) has in the past been reprimanded for costing too much for a non-profit org, meaning not enough of the raised funds went (go?) to the intended cause of cancer research. A few simple searches without knowing the exact relevant phrases, like the name of the watchdog authority, did not give me any results.
Thanks, this is good stuff.
I’d heard the criticisms of the charity too on occasion. Very relieving to see that they’re less than compelling.
You see how calm Vaughters is? That’s because he’s really one giant seething ball of Evil inside. With like, extra Evil.
That came up again in the press, recently
I saw it reported in the Italian press recently, but I couldn’t find the source for the report either.
fmk's piece suggests there's not much behind the stories
Only interesting left is 10+ million for that event agency.
Ja, not sure myself
I’m actually more concerned about the existence of a non-profit and for-profit org with the same name and the frequent blurring of the two. That is, there is a livestrong.org and a livestrong.com.
I’m not sure how current this latest criticism is, either. I do know fmk did a debunking of that claim last year, but I’m not sure if things have changed at all. The Googler returned nothing, so no story as of now.
Com and org is at the very least confusing, yes
And I think I misread the date of fmk’s post, thought it pertained to latest rumours.
Strictly limited offer!
Not feeling so hot? The solution is here! The Livestrong Kettle!
PLUS! Buy this attractive kettle within the next ten minutes and we’ll give you a free set of steak knives. Perfect for back-stabbing!
(Terms and conditions apply. Best before 2005.)
For tea that even an Olsen twin can keep down
get yourself a Livestrong kettle!

Thanks
I saw the references to teabagging and poncy fucks and figured I could come up with something equally “lighthearted”. Glad you liked it. I think I might still vote for “there is no I in team” though.

bad, bad, bad, but all i can think about is...
The tea kettle that boils away all impurities from your urine while the UCI waits at your door! Tested and approved. Limited 7 year warranty.
Incroyable! Incroyable! Incroyable!
Jimbo, had I only know your twitpics were threads to continue laughing at. :-)
I love C, not because he rocks as a cyclist, but because deep down he's a band geek! LOL!
To the tune of I'm a little teapost, short and stout ...
“I’m a Livestrong teapot, lean and mean
Put on a little heat, and hear me scream”
can you use the 'snuggie' as a tea cosy?
In New Guineau you see people wearing tea cosies on their heads.
