All Hamster Friday: Broccolis? for moi?

by Meg on April 28, 2006

Amazingly, lil’ Kumanoko always appears to have his mouth open in astonishment. Prolly amazed by his own cuteness. Even HE can’t believe himself!

OK, perhaps most precious detail photo EVAR? You cannot disagree.

15 adorababy 04.28.06 at 7:23 pm

*oh Kuma* *kiss* *kiss* *snorgle* *snorgle*– coworkers inch away in fear and disgust

16 sween 04.28.06 at 7:27 pm

Something in that picture maes me think of a muppet. The head tilt… the open mouth… the hyper-plushness… it’s spooky…

17 Aubrey 04.28.06 at 7:29 pm

Corn? Now broccoli? It’s a hamster Veg-All!

18 jaypo 04.28.06 at 7:31 pm

ariel, EC–I feel the air pressure dropping dangerously low here. “He lurks but appeareth not, excepting his darkly presence unfold slowly, like thwarted temper arising.”

in case you didn’t hear it the first time :-p

21 Zelda 04.28.06 at 7:34 pm

OMG, I can’t take it. That mouth, those lips, that tongue…the big, inquisitive eyes. AWWWWW!!!

22 earadriede 04.28.06 at 7:35 pm

ROFLMAO @ adorababy.

omg… how can someone get a shot like that??? the odds are like 1/1 thousand… well unless you just kept on shooting every second…

omg..i want one now..

23 Norty 04.28.06 at 7:37 pm

Meg, can we have Bun-Mon? puuuh-lees?
a bunny every monday!!!!

“Prolly amazed by her own cuteness” I’d have passed out laughing if it weren’t for the cuteness causing me to keep living.

24 zifnab 04.28.06 at 7:40 pm

for the record, Kuma’s a BOY and I dont think he appreciates his manliness (cute as he is!!) being questioned ;-)

I <3 those speckled ears!!

25 ariel 04.28.06 at 7:44 pm

*rolls over, shows belly*
“i’m good i’m good i’m good” say the eyes.

26 The Guy Over There 04.28.06 at 7:44 pm

Ah, so we go from the World Domination hamster to the hamster with the Martian leader for its evil twin. I see how this is going, Mel, don’t think I haven’t noticed! Because I haven’t!

27 sadie_asher 04.28.06 at 7:53 pm

Lookitdalilwiskers!!!!!

28 E. Collison 04.28.06 at 8:21 pm

“He lurks but appeareth not, excepting his darkly presence unfold slowly, like thwarted temper arising.”

Izzat Milton, by any chance?

29 Mel 04.28.06 at 8:24 pm

She’s scarfin’ broccoleeeheheheheh. She scarfin’ broccoli. Heh.

That made my whole Friday.

30 faye 04.28.06 at 8:31 pm

cool! the first picture looks as if shes surprised!!!^-^

31 Rhea H. 04.28.06 at 8:33 pm

she likes it!!! she likes the green!

32 Jackie 04.28.06 at 8:39 pm

“Broccoli? Wow, I must’ve been a good girl to deserve this! Look at how green it is!”
Definitely very cute…it’s even cuter than the hamster on the T-shirts…hint, hint…

33 jaypo 04.28.06 at 8:40 pm

no, c’est le mostre creatif qui existe dedans… seulement moi.

34 Jay Fry 04.28.06 at 8:42 pm

1st pic: She’s saying… “Dude, what’s with the broccoli? Where are my bonbons?”

2nd pic: “Aw, I guess I have to eat dinner before I get dessert.”

35 Jay Fry 04.28.06 at 8:44 pm

BTW, she sure is schweet and fluffy.

36 Dustbunny 04.28.06 at 8:46 pm

Cute hammie. Nasty broccoli. (Was it Ogden Nash who came up with “We’re out of broccoli, lockoly”?)

37 Skwerly 04.28.06 at 8:54 pm

I will say it again for those who don’t/can’t read:

Kumanoko is a BOY!

BOY!

BOY!

BOY!

AS IN, NOT A GIRL!

*gah*

That being said, HE is vewwy vewwy cute.

38 mir 04.28.06 at 8:56 pm

I ask again, Does All Hamster Friday have a theme song??? Anyone? anyone?

39 Jessica 04.28.06 at 8:58 pm

I was just about to say that!!! KUMA IS A MALE! a cute male indeed, but very much not a girl!

40 Theo 04.28.06 at 9:00 pm

Mir — will this do?

41 Skwerly 04.28.06 at 9:01 pm

Mir,

I can think of no better song than “Hampster Dance.”

You may have a hard time finding the original (which sampled a Disney song), but maybe it’s still out there somewhere.

42 jaypo 04.28.06 at 9:03 pm

Anyone know the “Hamtaro” theme song?

“Ham-ta-ro! We are hamsters helping people…” and so on…

43 jaypo 04.28.06 at 9:04 pm
44 Aubrey 04.28.06 at 9:06 pm

Dustbunny, I found little rhymelets about parsnips and celery, but no broccoli:

eeek! The speckled ears! The open mouf! The beady bug-out eyes! Yay!

49 Mary 04.28.06 at 9:18 pm

That Hamster is making it’s “OH” face!!!

50 E. Collison 04.28.06 at 9:18 pm

“no, c’est le mostre creatif qui existe dedans… seulement moi.”

Ah – Juste ton genie! :)

51 Zelda 04.28.06 at 9:20 pm

I have an old Hamster Dance t-shirt (circa 1996, I think…can that be right?). I LURVE hammies, especially when they dance!

52 GK 04.28.06 at 9:22 pm

That hamster is making it’s “oh” face!

53 jaypo 04.28.06 at 9:23 pm

EC–merci, mon amie poetique!

54 Christabean 04.28.06 at 9:24 pm

hahaha, reading the Flikr site I see that he(!) has eye and tooth conditions that make him eeeextwa cute. Hooray for ultra-cuteness wonky “specialness.”

55 E. Collison 04.28.06 at 9:24 pm

Every single Hamtaro song you could ever think of is here:

jaypo – Lache pas la patate! :)

57 jaypo 04.28.06 at 9:27 pm

YIPEEE! Thanks, EC!

58 Laurie 04.28.06 at 9:33 pm

Go out for a couple of hours and look how much I miss. Speaking of hamster songs, I think this little dude looks like he’s singing for his supper in the first pic. Guess he did a good job, because he got it in the second.

59 Theo 04.28.06 at 9:35 pm

JP, EC — Je me rappellerai également de fermer mon harrassment de rotation de trompette de coude de callitriche de pâte de pomme de terre rapidement. Navet! Fesses!

60 Annie Poonanny 04.28.06 at 9:38 pm

God damn that’s a cute hamster.

61 Skwerly 04.28.06 at 10:03 pm

Theo, jaypo, Collison…

Lo siento mucho- no hablo francés. ¿Qué han dicho ustedes?

62 Jay Fry 04.28.06 at 10:07 pm

OK, it’s a boy (pass the cigars…)! Sorry for the mixup.

63 Courtney 04.28.06 at 10:34 pm

E. Collison, thank you for the link! These songs are cute (but not as cute as the hammies!)

64 Hammy 04.28.06 at 10:41 pm

Is that for moi? I have been waiting for you to give some to me! *Cries*, Ahh, and tears make such sweet sauce.

LOL!!!!!!!!!

65 kikileo 04.28.06 at 11:21 pm

Actually this appears to be a hamster in gender transition (halfway through the paragraph). squee!

66 Hammy 04.28.06 at 11:24 pm

“Amazingly, lil’ Kumanoko always appears to have his mouth open in astonishment. Prolly amazed by his own cuteness. Even HE can’t believe himself!

OK, he, or she? Hmmmmmm, me thinks its a he.

67 E. Collison 04.28.06 at 11:43 pm
68 E. Collison 04.28.06 at 11:48 pm

I think his mouth is open so much because of the problem with his teeth – poor sweet guy.

69 Hammy 04.28.06 at 11:50 pm

That hammy has a tooth problem, ohhhh, sad, they should do somethin’ about that.

70 Becca 04.29.06 at 12:08 am

I think that first picture instantly gave me diabetes.

71 Hammy 04.29.06 at 12:28 am

Wow, where is everybody????

72 Ryan 04.29.06 at 1:47 am

he probably doesn’t have teeth.
but at least his owner is taking good care of him in spite of it.

73 Caitlin 04.29.06 at 2:12 am

awww! the individual broccoli florets crack me up.

we used to save veggie bits when I had hammies, but never the individual florets :)

74 Maltese Parakeet 04.29.06 at 4:36 am

weak…from…cuteness.

75 Renee 04.29.06 at 6:51 am

At first I was like “OK another cute hamster” Then I was like “AWWW it looks suprised!” Then I saw the broccoli and the speckled ears and put the whole picture together and *AIEEEE!* What a find!

76 aleks 04.29.06 at 11:24 am

AWWW OMG. OMG I’M IN LOVE. SRSLY. <3

77 Karl 04.29.06 at 1:00 pm

I loved the contrast between Lili, the two-fisted, corn-kernel eatin’, street-fightin, don’t-mess-with-me hamster-gal, and Kumanoko, the pampered powder-puff who has his broccoli presented to him on a spoon who gets all squealy and goes “Ooh! For ME?” when he sees it.

78 arwo (aka Barry Manilow) 04.29.06 at 5:49 pm

Oh Zuma
You came and you ate all the brocc-li
After your mouth was opened in shock-ly…

79 Tweedle Dee 04.29.06 at 8:41 pm

How about this for a theme song?

80 Tweedle Dee 04.29.06 at 8:45 pm

Oh, Harvey, Harvey
Harvey the Wonder Hamster
He doesn’t bite and he doesn’t squeal
He just runs around on his hamster wheel
Harvey, Harvey
Harvey the Wonder Hamster
Hey, Harvey!

81 Christine 04.30.06 at 3:29 am

I want Bun-Mon!

82 Jordan Hamilton 04.30.06 at 4:00 pm

Every time I see a picture of Hammy, his mouth is open like that. Does he have something wrong? Or, maybe I missed the story on this a long time ago… Well, yeah, he’s cute!

83 ahphooey 04.30.06 at 7:20 pm

Love his face in the first pic! I’ve never seen anyone this excited over broccoli.

84 tarry 05.01.06 at 6:33 am

I wont let you see me doing it again.*sniggers as mum walks away* that doesnt mean i wont do it again i just wont let you see me doing it. i wont be braking my promise cause i didnt promise to stop.
