We all know that there’s a price to pay when it comes to engaging in random, unprotected sex. But wouldn’t it be nice to know that the rash/sore/infestation is on its way before you take it back home to wifey? It’s only common courtesy, folks.

They’re selling for $25 a pop and will be retailed through Obama merchandise mart Upper Playground. Besides the fact that he tends to bite, Shepard often doesn’t even know why and that’s as troublesome as unregistered Obama supporters who can’t name one good reason why they’d back the young senator besides his charm. While some of you might think we’re being a tad too harsh, let’s just say that when a gossipy website like Gawker can pull of a Shep even better than the man himself, you know the creative underclass is raging, and not by making t-shirts.
