This caused me to immediately burst out laughing!

2 Kelly 01.04.06 at 9:18 pm

Wow, I never would have thought a fish could be cute, but you’ve proven me wrong.

3 kelly 01.04.06 at 10:36 pm

Awww, it looks like it’s saying hi.

Hi puffer fishy!!!

4 Mush 01.04.06 at 10:56 pm

All I wanna know is, how did you know we needed this f*&cking site in the first place? I COME HERE EVERY DAY NOW, AND I DON’T KNOW HOW I LIVED BEFORE.

I don’t even wear pink or anything. No one knows about how the cute affects me!

;-)

Puffer Fish sez:

Hi! Hi! Omigawd, I’m so glad to see you! Wow! This is turning out to be a really great day!

7 Peter Dekkers 01.04.06 at 11:27 pm

Haha! This pufferfish is also quite jolly:

Sadly, I don’t know who to credit on this one, either.

I did snap this one, though:

Ok… tell me that doesn’t look just *slightly* like Michael Jackson?!

11 Bunny Fiver 01.05.06 at 12:44 am

Hm, just a bit, except that the fish has a more pronounced nose.

12 Elisabeth 01.05.06 at 12:49 am

I almost thought it was Karl at first, but he has a blue tank. View his website above–he belongs to Dave Eggers and 826 Valencia.

13 Elisabeth 01.05.06 at 12:51 am

Ok, that link didn’t work like I thought it would. Go here for Karl goodness:

I remember I was at an aquarium and I saw one of these sitting on the floor of a tank looking like a lumpy slug.

Terp: Hello puffer fish! Hello!
Fish: :D

This little kid walked by and went “EWWW, LOOK AT THE GROSS FISH” and ran away. Ever so slowly, the puffer fish’s face went from :D to D:

Stupid kid. *punts*

Awww this site always has such cute pics.

16 Espilonarge 01.05.06 at 9:22 am

Hihi Puffy Camera Fishy! ^.^

17 Chiara 01.05.06 at 10:33 am

Pufferfish are as cute as any other pets.
They are grossly underrated.
This one is a good example!

18 Crystal 01.05.06 at 3:00 pm

I have a saltwater tank but no puffer fish. At the fish store they have one and he is ALWAYS smiling.

19 Srdje 01.05.06 at 9:31 pm

Unless puffers look alike more than I think, I know that fish! It’s in a tank at a car wash in Chandler, Arizona. I’ll never forget that face. The fish is HUGE and likes to follow people as they move around the tank. One of the more fascinating fishes I’ve come across.

20 Angel 01.05.06 at 10:40 pm

:::Giggle:::: They have a HUGE pufferfish at our local aquarium, and we call him Bob LOL

21 ec 01.06.06 at 4:46 am

This is the last straw – I’ve become addicted to this blog! I can’t stand it!!!

I’m a girl, and not generally a “cute” fan – but I think I’ve been brainwashed – and you have only yourselves to blame :)

Great little slideshow, BTW.

Comments re: the famous Karl of 826 Valencia… yes he was a very good puffa fish, but I’m afraid he’s passed on… I asked some friends who were visiting the states to pop in and say hello (and get me a Karl is King T-Shirt!) back in October when they were in San Fran, only to be informed that he’s gone to the big fish tank in the sky.

There is currently a puffa fish vacancy available. Good rates, warm tank, international notoriety a bonus.

23 Pinky 01.07.06 at 12:11 pm

Yikes! I was going to pick a fight with that fish, but it’s face is huge!
I am a betta fish. And I am staying away from that mouth!

24 James 01.07.06 at 3:57 pm

Never mind that fugu is toxic. How can you eat something with a face like that?

25 Leejay 01.08.06 at 5:29 am

Porcupine puffers are dang cute.

31 chupacabra 01.11.06 at 3:45 pm

The public library I work at has a lovely porcupine puffer in the fish tank in the children’s room. My co-workers that feed him report that he follows their bobbing employee IDs when they stand on tiptoes to put the food in the top of the tank.

36 PugWuv 02.02.06 at 4:14 pm

To me, it’s saying:

“Hey baby – I’m undressing you in my mind. *sleazy grin* “

LOL i’m weird

37 spf30+ 02.06.06 at 11:20 am

HAHAHAHAHAH thats the funniest fish i’ve ever seen!

38 Alanna 05.02.06 at 5:12 am

He reminds me of a very sad, lonely fish in Storer Hall at UC Davis. I always wanted to steal him & put him in a tank w/other fish or turtles or whatever might make a puffer fish happy. He always followed people as far as he could & looked at you with those big, mournful eyes. He looked so sad yet hopeful…it was too much!

39 andi 05.17.06 at 4:33 am

I had a puffer fish over 20 years ago. I LOVED THAT FISH! He had the cutest personality. I was heartbroken when he died.

40 Eva-Lise Carsltrom 07.14.06 at 6:16 pm

Shouldn’t this be moved to the fishy section now that there is one?
