It’s Fuzzy Friday and thus it’s time for gratuitous cute pictures of creatures.

Fuzz Friday also seems like a good day to release our new line of dog t-shirts. Our new model is a total cutie on her own, but she’s even cooler looking in our stylish tees.
I couldn’t decide whether to file this under Fuzzy Friday or WTF Wednesday. It’s got a bit of both to it, but since I already had a very excellent video about sex with elves to share earlier this week, I decided to save this for today. Eternal Earth-Bound Pets has an offer for Christians preoccupied with the fate of their pets in a post-rapture world. Simply pay them $110.00 and these certified atheists will come collect your pet while you’re off enjoying the hereafter with Jesus. (They’ll collect a second pet for just $15.00, quite a bargain, amiright?)
This leaves me with more questions than it answers, primarily how enjoyable would the hereafter really be without my most beloved 4-legged family members? Thankfully, being not the religious type, I probably won’t be invited to this pet-free Christian after-party, so I guess I won’t worry too much about that. I’m perfectly happy to chill here with my fuzzy besties, anyway. Speaking of which, please enjoy the following photos of Bigby, he was being such a ham for the camera this week, I couldn’t resist.
We humans might not be fans of the incessant snow but this polar bear doesn’t seem to mind. I thought I’d wrap up the week of snowmania with this cutie enjoying some of the white stuff.
P.S. The snow has made me so productive this week. More new art: Ghost Whisperers
As excited as I am for my upcoming European vacation (May cannot arrive soon enough), stuff like this just serves to make me pine for a Tokyo visit in the near future.
I “get” kawaii. I like cute stuff. I understand the appeal.
I also get irony. I am, after all, a postmodern Gen Y-er. To someone of my age and disposition, irony is the peas to my cynicism’s carrots.
So to combine the cuteness of kawaii with the irony that has been the life-blood of the last few generations seems like a no-brainer.
But something about kawaii-styled pooh smells funny (ZING!)
This is nothing against designer Undoboy, who has a much more impressive design resume than I do, and who seems to have a relatively concrete aesthetic that he works from and within.
But poop is poop. It is, quite literally, waste. And the deranged notion amongst kawaii enthusiasts that illustrating anything in a kawaii style makes it adorable, regardless of how noxious it actually is, is ridiculous. And while we’re calling spades spades, let’s also acknowledge that avoiding poop’s natural, um, “hue” in lieu of a more aesthetically-pleasing rainbow palette is cheating.
That said, be sure to be on the lookout for my upcoming design, “Pastel Vomit”. Two can play at this game, Undoboy!
Normally these carnivores would make this baby impala their amuse bouche before eating his mom. Instead it seems the cheetahs just want to be friends. Add your captions below.
Via Like Cool, see more of the cheetahs hanging with the impala here.
P.S. We just got a huge stash of really cool bottle openers featuring original Ex-Boyfriend illustrations. We’re enclosing a free one in each of our orders. They come with a key ring so you can open your beer on the go. To get your hands on one, just place an order on our site.
A Manitoba resident saw this polar bear approaching his sled dogs and braced himself for the worst. Instead of eating the pups, this polar bear just hung out and played with them. The bear came back every night for a week to hang out with his new friends.
