Bookofjoe has a reproduction (picture to the left) of an Old Spice ad that appeared in the print version of Sports Illustrated.  Joe thinks it’s pretty gross and I’d have to agree.

My family knows, and now you will too, that since reaching adulthood my body has behaved like a Chia-Pet on steroids.  I’ve been sprouting and losing body hair at a prodigious rate so at the end of every shower my soap looks much like the bar in the picture.  In deference to my lovely wife I spend an inordinate amount of time picking those darn things off which is more difficult than you’d think.  But, I’m a creature of habit and I’m not a big fan of the liquid soaps.  Perhaps I’d be converted if I sat down and figured out how much time I spend picking in an average week; I’m thinking it would be the equivalent of a part-time job.
