I feel bad for everyone. All the time. I haven't read a single article about this guy until I saw the intro to this one. Can't help it. The losing team? I cheer for them. The unsecrue guy who can't say why anyone wold find him sexy? I'll sleep with him. (Thank God I don't have to though.) And so on. #fleshbotawards
@pesematology: I'm female, so no knocking up for me. He impressed me by having the stones to mess with Mavrick's head so much, it is great. #fleshbotawards
Does anyone else think it looks like he's got some chewing tobacco in his mouth? See how there's a bulge along one side of his jaw but not the other? This Southern girl is usually pretty good at spotting a dude who chews.
In which case, I no longer find him sexy, because that shit is nasty. #fleshbotawards
@BeckySharper: Oh god, I know. One of the nastiest items I remember from high school out in a more eastern area of Texas was the ubiquitous faded Dr Pepper can on the dash of their trucks in the parking lot... the infamous "spit can". So ungodly disgusting. #fleshbotawards
"She can be classy " and "she can spend some money on some shit" seem pretty incongruous. That being said - love it. And yes, I can spend some money on some shit. I'm good at it, too. #fleshbotawards
But he's not taking control of his image. And he's not brave because this is just a different group of people painting a picture of him.
I feel terrible for Bristol. Imagine being a 17 year old girl, put aside the whole baby/marriage thing, put aside the whole he's famous for talking shit about her mom thing even, and your boyfriend becomes a huge porn star. I'd be so confused and mortified by that alone. With everything else on top of it... wow. #fleshbotawards
@judgingamy: I feel bad for both of them. They were both kids without a whole lot of life experience, living in a fairly small and isolated place, who got dumped into a shitstorm they had no way of knowing how to navigate at absolutely the worst moment ever. And I'm not sure doing a playgirl spread is becoming a "huge porn star". Also they are no longer together, and who he chooses to get naked in front of is not really her business (or anyone else's) #fleshbotawards
@colormeroutine: Agreed. If anyone is at fault, it's Sarah Palin and the GOP machinery that thrust Bristol and Levi into the spotlight to begin with. She/they manipulated their images to paint the perfect picture of Middle-American, conservative values. They were kids, and they were paraded around like show dogs to perpertuate a fictictious image. That he has come out of that situation and remained sane is impressive. That he has seemingly taken every opportunity to piss of Sarah is only a bonus. #fleshbotawards
@colormeroutine: Sorry, but when you have a kid, you forfit this "It's nobody else's business if I show my junk in Playgirl!"nonsense.
At the very least, it is Bristol's business because it's her son's business. This dimwit has to think about how his selfish whims will affect their son first and foremost. And don't tell me this won't affect their son; there's no way to know that yet. #fleshbotawards
@smizmar: My not-yet-in-existence kids might one day be affected by the drunken pictures of me on my facebook. Or by any millions of other decisions. Unless affects the child DIRECTLY, I really don't think that's a valid point. If he was posing his child naked in magazines, I'd care. #fleshbotawards
@colormeroutine: Even if it's her ex, I wouldn't blame her for feeling weird about the whole thing. I know that I have no say in what my exes do and that it's none of my business, but it doesn't mean it doesn't bug the crap out of me though. #fleshbotawards
He looks hot in that picture and if the other tabloid male-du-jour option is the unwashed seemingly underfed sparkle vamp, give me Levi any day. #fleshbotawards
I was discussing my fondness for Levi with Mr. Vivelafat last night. A comic book creator could not have written a more perfect foil for Palin. He has no political agenda and nothing to loose and best of all SHE MADE HIM. He would have not platform at all had she not dragged him into the spotlight. I honestly predict that he will bring her down. #fleshbotawards
@Vivelafat says Sweep the leg, Johnny.: I know. I love that of all the people in the world--the political analysts, the politicians, campaign managers--the person who has proven to be the thorn in her side is an eighteen year old hockey player from a broken home, who went on to impregnate her daughter and then become a gay icon. It's actually quite poetic and a true American gothic story for this era. Bravo, Levi. #fleshbotawards
@Vivelafat says Sweep the leg, Johnny.: This is the best Levi-Sarah analogy I've heard yet. He's like her Frankenstein monster, the Man-Bat to her Bat-Man. the Venom to her Spiderman.
I'm picturing this 50 foot tall, expression-less naked man, wordlessly tearing down her life by swinging his giant penis every which way, exposing corruption and hypocrisy. A modern day Paul Bunyan.
And nobody loves him, and he is so alone, but he can't go back, and neither can she. They are the only ones who understand each other completely, instinctively.

@funzette: That is beautiful. It also cracks me up that an 18 year old jock is the only one that "understands Palin completely". This is movie gold, I tell you. We need to get on it. #fleshbotawards
@Vivelafat says Sweep the leg, Johnny.: I bet Sarah relives that moment endlessly - the one where when people were questioning her about baby Trig, and instead of producing the doctor who delivered him, she pointed to Bristol and said, "She's Pregnant!" That's where it all began.
They shouldn't have fucked with Levi. The Palins tried to cut him off from his baby - and even though Levi doesn't seem to be the brightest bulb on the porch, he is smart enough to bedevil the Palins, endlessly. #fleshbotawards
@PaintedTrollop: The thing that I find entertaining about Levi is that I honestly believe he knows something about Palin that could really hurt her. But, he's not divulging it because he has no reason to. He's not out to ruin her. He doesn't have a vendetta, he just wants to see he his kids. Palin can choose how much harm he does to her by how she choses to treat him, and that is an awesome dynamic. #fleshbotawards
He's sexy in that "jock who was in Honors English and said one mildly brilliant thing that justified the sex dream you had about him" kind of way. #fleshbotawards
@Kivrin: Yes! And you could have dramatic make-out sessions in the boiler room at school. But, he would ruin it all by writing a song that you think is about you but is actually about his stupid car. Then, he sleeps with your drunk of a best friend and you end up putting your mutual sweet best friend in the middle of the fuckery.
@Grrrlfriend: I'm pretty sure that Playgirl is no longer an actual magazine, just a website—so you'll have to dirty up your browser history with a visit to his photos. :) #fleshbotawards
@sybann: that's right you did! because that up there? that's a baby making potato. throw on some luther vandross and its 3...2...1...DONE. #fleshbotawards
I at least give him partial credit for learning to say no--if, in fact, he's doing that. It shows an understanding of error and consequence that a lot of dudes that age haven't mastered.
But I wonder if he's going to look back on all this in 20 years and just be embarrassed. Because it's getting to the point where it's pretty fucking embarrassing, IMO. #fleshbotawards
@BeckySharper: I seems like he's embarrassed now, really. I think his stance on "opinionated" women might actually be the result of some class-based insecurities. It reads to me as if he's saying, "I'm embarrassed that I don't have the money to keep up with these girls" as opposed to "I don't like these girls."
He's a high school drop out, a new father, his mother is in prison for drugs, and he's said he's doing this for the money to help provide for his sister. I don't know. The whole thing is kind of depressing. #fleshbotawards
@hortense: It is pretty depressing, and the class element is unmistakeable. I mean, I'd think more highly of him if he'd stayed in Alaska, gotten his electrician's license and spent more time with his kid.
But who am I to judge? He's a kid from a hardscrabble place with very little opportunity. He may never get a chance to earn money like this again in his life. Life's full of trade-offs. Who knows? I might have done the same thing if I'd wound up in his shoes. #fleshbotawards
@hortense: i read the whole of this article, and i quite literally want to give this guy a hug. not a naked hug, but an honest to goodness "i know what you're going through, i've seen so many people in your position, kudos for trying" hug. #fleshbotawards
