I'm betting her nipples could pierce Chobham armor.

Like spent uranium.

I'd hit it.

I must say I was not disappointed.

The cold water apparently caused a certain amount of shrinkage.

FTA: "It was a great day for a swim. Not!"

*facepalm*

 
Gordon Bennett 2008-12-06 08:24:55 PM  
Bikinis, ice-cold water, and this photographer has to go for the profile view. While their arms are held up in front of them.

Thanks for nothing.

The purpose was to raise awareness for global warming by plunging into water in the midst of winter? Not a terrific example.

 
Array 2008-12-06 08:26:29 PM  
Screw keeping winter cold. Anyone been outside in Chicago this weekend? Farking Christ.

 
Theological Farker 2008-12-06 08:26:31 PM  
Pffft. That's not a polar bear plunge. THIS is a polar bear swim. (new window)

 
ClipJoint 2008-12-06 08:26:32 PM  
Perhaps a "How About No" polar bear is in order...

 
giantswin 2008-12-06 08:26:58 PM  
Are you kidding me? What a waste of time, you farkers are hard up.

i didn't know "nice-looking" was a new term for "totally busted, oh god what the hell is wrong with her hands"

Bikinis are all good and well until you find out they're raising awareness for global warming.

WTF, there isn't even any snow around. How can this be described as a "Polar Bear Plunge"?

I'm from Alaska, if you are going to have a polar bear plunge, you had better farking do it right.

You know a woman is hot when she can pull of the condom-cap look.

/I'll make her warm after she's done with her swim.
//Scissor me timbers.

I wouldn't mind being the salami in a Monica-Gretchen sandwich.

"Love that dirty water, ooow yeah, Boston, you're my home."

 
Ryankenny 2008-12-06 08:37:40 PM  
She's hot . . . I mean cold. Er, what was the question?

 
Oldiron_79 2008-12-06 08:37:41 PM  
I'll bet the nipples could cut diamonds.

Three sentences + relevant yum pic = article (in my book anyway)

For lesser values of "nice looking," eh, Subby?

/Polar bear swim? sweet I did that as a kid!
//It has a meaning? what
///Global Warming?

You know how I know you're gay?

 
berylman 2008-12-06 08:43:48 PM  
At first I thought she was wearing those fingerless woolen gloves that are strictly the province of NY cab drivers and the deranged, cold homeless. What the hell are those, lobster claws?

 
safety-math 2008-12-06 08:45:15 PM  
I was thinking about doing that this year. Though jumping into Lake Michigan any time of year often feels like a (sewagey) polar plunge...

Because everyone lives somewhere that gets that cold.

 
Sarcastica75 [TotalFark] 2008-12-06 08:46:36 PM  
She's making a face because the water is cold. How does that make her look like a horse? I'm sorry but horses for me are Julia ROberts and Sarah Jessica Neeeeigh.

Hence "lesser values of" in my post.

Okay, well, now that you put it that way, I pass.

 
GuidoDelConfuso 2008-12-06 08:49:54 PM  
That may be the stupidest thing I've ever seen in my life. They're swimming in ice cold water to raise awareness about global warming? Never mind the fact, as others have pointed out, that it makes no sense to do that. Is there really anyone out there who hasn't been beaten over the head with global warming propaganda by now? Is someone going to look at this article and say, "Hey, what's this global warming thing they're talking about?"

she only appears 'attractive' in contrast with subjects in the background.

I didn't even notice her hands till you said something. I was to busy looking at her butt.

monsieurstabby Because everyone lives somewhere that gets that cold.

Are you suggesting someone lives somewhere that doesn't fluctuate in temperature?

well those in the know know that global warming ISNT global warming, it's change. for instance, in europe it'll get colder from the warm water being pushed south by melting icecaps.

I found this article both interesting and useful. Not!
