Kimchee took this photo at the Atlanta Zoo.  The C.O.X.C.U. warpage is my fault. ;-)

(EDIT — corrected the photo credit.  Wups!  Sorry, Kimchee… am an eediot today…)

Look mom! first comment!
Bleen-tastic! Woohoo!!!

2 Connie 12.07.06 at 5:02 pm

Well, that is one cute roo!

3 zelda 12.07.06 at 5:03 pm

Duuuuuude.

4 Golden 12.07.06 at 5:03 pm

hahahahaaaaa!

I love CO and I love MEG. Do you think she would marry me?

5 Wisefool 12.07.06 at 5:06 pm

Excuse me…is there something in my nose? Look closer.

6 Theo 12.07.06 at 5:08 pm

Golden — considering she’s *already* married, you’re probably out of luck.

Just to forestall one possible follow-up question, I’m married too, and wouldn’t want to be a second choice anyway. ;-)

7 ceejoe 12.07.06 at 5:09 pm

OMG, I wanna go there… where you can get that *close* to the aminals!

8 Subhangi 12.07.06 at 5:11 pm

Holy LOL! He looks like a combination of ‘roo and baby seal!

9 Golden 12.07.06 at 5:14 pm

Theo: Damn.. and damn again

maybe the ‘roo will marry me.

10 Robin 12.07.06 at 5:14 pm

WOW how they do that?

11 Subhangi 12.07.06 at 5:18 pm

Tsk, Theo.

*shakes head*

12 A thinker 12.07.06 at 5:19 pm

LOL! Very good, Teho.

And you *have* gotten a few marriage proposals on CO, haven’t you?

13 HeidStar 12.07.06 at 5:19 pm

Whoa.

That C.O.X.C.U. action is kinda fur-EEEKing me out. Good thing C.O. doesn’t come equipped with Smell-O-Vision as I can’t imagine roo-breath smells *nice*. Back to the nice, safe snuggly bunny picture for this one.

14 fatal_fluffy 12.07.06 at 5:19 pm

I’m happy to see my pic up on CO (finally!), but this (http://kimchee.vox.com/) is me.

15 Subhangi 12.07.06 at 5:20 pm

LOL @ Golden.

Maybe TJ and DavidB had better stay away. ;)

16 jaypo 12.07.06 at 5:21 pm

He’s wondering if there’s a gremlin in his nose.

(Gremlin-n. euphemistic term for the common boogie that persists even after freqent blowing. Extremely arcane and regional to a very small area of the NE US.)

17 Subhangi 12.07.06 at 5:24 pm

Oh hell … that was uncalled for. Sorry.

18 fatal_fluffy 12.07.06 at 5:27 pm

thanks Theo.

19 Arvay 12.07.06 at 5:29 pm

Awww! Roo snoot! Too much!

20 Golden 12.07.06 at 5:34 pm

Subhangi: I don’t know what you’re referencing about TJ and DavidB as I haven’t been here long enough.. whatever it is.. i’m sure it’s funny..

I’ve decided to just date the ‘roo.. marriage is so.. final.

If Teho wasn’t married I’d date him too. and Meg.

Hell..all of you.. I’m just so full of love . it must be all the cute.

21 NebraskaErin 12.07.06 at 5:39 pm

Is he smiling, smug, or disapproving? I can’t tell.

22 NebraskaErin 12.07.06 at 5:41 pm

Or is he perhaps about to KEES?!

23 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 5:42 pm

It’s alive! It’s alive!

RUN AWAY!!

Oh. Sorry – Christmas party tonight, and, well, seems that it’s started a bit early.

24 fatal_fluffy 12.07.06 at 5:45 pm

here’s another ‘roo nose, for those of you who need more.

25 Golden 12.07.06 at 5:46 pm

Come on people.. the ‘roo is KEEEEESING me! The one he dates.

I lurrve him.

26 pyrit 12.07.06 at 5:52 pm

Golden: *I’ll* marry you!!!
“Mawage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam…
And wuv, tru wuv, will fowow you foweva…
So tweasure your wuv.”

27 pyrit 12.07.06 at 5:53 pm

Aubrey – You can run but you cannot hide!

28 mif 12.07.06 at 5:55 pm

hmm, i’m thinking his mouth definitely looks disapproving. i love it!

29 ShelleyTambo 12.07.06 at 5:55 pm

Uff da…Roo is cute and funny…but…I had finally gotten over the nightmares about animal snouts…

30 atxcats 12.07.06 at 5:57 pm

Ohhh, that was scary at first — but once I got over the initial fright — awwww!

31 Golden 12.07.06 at 5:57 pm

We will have a cwute overwoad mawwiage

32 mif 12.07.06 at 5:58 pm
33 jaypo 12.07.06 at 6:03 pm

Yes, Chwismas gwoup mawages, wike Wevewend Moon. Oow was it Elmer Fudd?

34 pyrit 12.07.06 at 6:03 pm

Golden – Pewfect. pywits wuv Gold. My tweasure!

35 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 6:04 pm

pyrit, we have to make this legal – have you the wing?

36 pyrit 12.07.06 at 6:07 pm

Theo – It never would have worked between us, Darling. I hope you are not crushed.

37 pyrit 12.07.06 at 6:09 pm

Aubrey – “I do!”

38 Robbie 12.07.06 at 6:31 pm

ROTFL! Love the extreme closeup!

39 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 6:32 pm

pyrit – you’ve walked down the aisle with Golden, you’ve turned down T., and now you’re giving me mixed signals. Stop it.

(staggers back to the eggnog)

40 pyrit 12.07.06 at 6:35 pm

Ack! I think I just married Aubrey. She tricked me!

41 Golden 12.07.06 at 6:39 pm

Hey! Who am I mawwied to?

Pyrit.. I wuv you!

42 pyrit 12.07.06 at 6:43 pm

Golden – Let’s jack-elope.

43 Renee 12.07.06 at 6:44 pm

I wuv it!!!!!

44 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 6:49 pm

Not so fast!

(Drags pyrit to a kangaroo divorce court)

45 Golden 12.07.06 at 6:53 pm

Pyrit- PERFECT!

Aubrey- who gets the joeys?!

46 Redzilla 12.07.06 at 6:54 pm

Man and wife! Just say it: MAN AND WIFE!

47 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 6:59 pm

JOEYS??? Take ‘em. Those brats’ll never amount to anything – they may want to, but they’ll never be real roos. Just a pouch of wallabees.

48 Golden 12.07.06 at 7:00 pm

Pyrit.. I’m so slow, I just got the Princess Bride reference..

49 Golden 12.07.06 at 7:01 pm

hahaha.. a pouch of wallabees!!! dang you people are good.

50 pyrit 12.07.06 at 7:08 pm

Ahhh, ‘con-joey-gal’ bliss.

51 petmuseum 12.07.06 at 7:12 pm

Wow, that was a nimble pun. And I’m still dizzy from Dr Tongue’s 3-D house of Marsupials

52 Theo 12.07.06 at 7:12 pm

AubreyPyritGolden — I am DYIN ovah heah. L-O-flippin’-L. (RedZ too.)
Aaaaaas… youuuuuu….. wiiiiiish……..

Mif — that T-shirt WILL be somebody’s Christmas gift. Awesome!

53 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 7:14 pm

Ahhh, ‘The Joey of…

Nevermind.

54 pyrit 12.07.06 at 7:18 pm

Redz – Yer dink is Humping.

Golden – Take my hand. It’ll be slo-mo-movie matrimony.

mif – nice t-shirt – thanx

Aubrey – “Cooking”?

55 Claudia 12.07.06 at 7:18 pm

I see we are passing eggnog today instead of marmie kittehs. Please pass some over here.

56 Theo 12.07.06 at 7:20 pm

Aubrey — would that be an ecumenical, interdenominational joey?

57 Claudia 12.07.06 at 7:24 pm

I think Aubrey got snagged under the mistletoe. Or fell in the eggnog.

58 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 7:26 pm

Claudia, I drank the eggnog up, to deaden the hurt of being turned down by pyrit AND Golden. I also thought it would be whimsical to use it instead of milk to make puddin, so I did that too.

59 Theo 12.07.06 at 7:27 pm

Claudia — I reeeeally want to put the aerial up on your “n” there. It’s BEGGING to be an “h”.

60 Tony James 12.07.06 at 7:34 pm

[dunks a marmie kittin in the eggnog and snorgles its belleh]

Disapp-roo-ving kangas? I think they would definitely be aware of a let or hindrance why I should not be lawfully wed to anyone on this board (although the offers are very flattering). I fear that the demands of my job as Obersturmbahnkatzenfuhrer, overseeing the construction of a new battery of puddinkwerferschnorglekanonen (technically classed as weapons of mass deflufftion), and making sure that KittinKapitan Arbed doesn’t get up to mischief would preclude me from being a particularly good husband.

61 pyrit 12.07.06 at 7:34 pm

TEHO !!!!!!!!!!
Aubrey close your eyes!!!!
Claudia – don’t look!

62 Arvay 12.07.06 at 7:37 pm

I was waiting for someone to open the roo-ination of this thread with silly puns!

Finally a few kang-along! :)

63 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 7:54 pm

TJ,

T., is mean, pyrit is unfaithful, Claudia just wants my liquor and Golden broke up my marriage. Maybe too many cooks did mar the supial, but I had hopes for each one.

But what I’m trying to say, I’ve heard of army brats, so why not an army bride?

64 Theo 12.07.06 at 7:57 pm

Pyrit — whut?? You’re afraid of an “egghog”?
Geeshe…

;)

65 Theo 12.07.06 at 7:58 pm

Damn, Aubrey. You *are* good.
You deserve all the joey that sects can offer.

66 pyrit 12.07.06 at 8:02 pm

Aubrey – I may not roo-lly want to marry-supial you. But I will sign a pre-pun-tial agreement with you! Pass the egg nog! Can I go to the Christmas party with you tonight, as just friends?

67 pyrit 12.07.06 at 8:06 pm

Aubrey – Ask Theo if his intentions are Te-honorable.
Hee, ;-) .

68 jenn 12.07.06 at 8:06 pm

You guys are KEELING me. Please pass the eggnog (or hog) over here. Extra brandy please.

69 Theo 12.07.06 at 8:07 pm

Cripes, exactly how do you people *pronounce* my name, anyways?

70 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 8:17 pm

T., we prounce it: T-R-O-U-B-L-E. Happy?

Jenn, sorry; didn’t mean to hog the nog.

pyrit, I think I know the answer to that one already. And of course you can be my arm candy for tonight. But it’s formal – gents will be wearing mar-sup-ial and tie.

71 fatal_fluffy 12.07.06 at 8:34 pm

stop punning! I mean it! ;)

72 Jack Ruttan 12.07.06 at 8:37 pm

Actually, that’s a view the photographer gets just before the ‘roo kicks his lights out.

Not always the friendliest of creatures!

73 Laura 12.07.06 at 8:43 pm

*everyone yells* Anybody want a peanut?

74 carolina 12.07.06 at 8:46 pm

Gosh, I was gettin’ sleepy. That cuteness woke me up. He is “inspecting” us!

I would love more disapproving kangas and PLEASE more disapproving bunnies. Throw me a bone some time. =)

75 Golden 12.07.06 at 8:49 pm

I really love you people.

I never meant to ‘roo’in anybody’s mawwage.

Puddin for everybody! Egg Nog Puddin!

76 Theo 12.07.06 at 8:51 pm

Golden — that sounds really good, actually. I’m envisioning crème brûlée with nutmeg.

77 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 8:53 pm

Laura, I’ll take one – I’ll need it for strength because there’s a Spaniard giving us some trouble.

Golden, I’ve been sobbin’ in my nog all morning/afternoon. But share the puddin’ and all is forgivin’.

78 Theo 12.07.06 at 8:55 pm

*everyone gives Laura a gold star*

79 Claudia 12.07.06 at 9:10 pm

Work interfers with life again!

Is everyone already paired up? I miss out on all the good stuff.

TJ, please pass that eggHog drenched kitteh over this way.

80 Lauri 12.07.06 at 9:20 pm

wOOt! *waves to Ashlee* That’s ma girl!

First comment…even if she DID get bleened! ;)

81 Lauri 12.07.06 at 9:22 pm

Claudia,
I am paired up with Joey, he is zooming in to plant one right on me lipz!

82 michellemybelle 12.07.06 at 9:24 pm

How handy – the roo can carry puddin’ in its pouch!
(And, if I’ll fit in there, it can hop me away from Cube Hell!)

83 Rosie 12.07.06 at 9:24 pm

you guys need to learn how to read animals facial expressions. *obviously* he is trying not to sneeze, and is just scrunching up up noze which makes it seem to stay in, gosh!

84 Katrina 12.07.06 at 9:31 pm

this truly scared me, hehe! I saw the one image started scrolling down..and though.. wait, did I just see it move? I scrolled back up and waited and then it moved and made my jump! HEHE was hilarious!

On the last shot it looks like a seal!!!

85 Golden 12.07.06 at 9:37 pm

Katrina Katrina Katrina! Are you kidding me??? My real name is Katrina as well. Wait.. did I post that last comment? Am I two?

86 Theo 12.07.06 at 9:40 pm

[walking on sunshine]

87 lindr 12.07.06 at 9:41 pm

Laura – Did you really mean it?

88 Theo 12.07.06 at 9:44 pm

Lindr — no, but Fatal Fluffy did.

89 AmyH 12.07.06 at 9:50 pm

Ya know, you have to watch that Aubrey. I remember another post not too long ago where a minimum of three of us thought we were engaged to her. Of course, that was after a night of pom martinis and other libations so none of us really remember what truly happened.

90 Golden 12.07.06 at 9:55 pm

Theo: The Waves.. and some girl named Katrina

Why’d they have to name a hurricane after me?

91 hrh.squeak 12.07.06 at 9:59 pm

Wow. I missed ALL the good stuff. (Stares at ruins of what was obviously a wild holiday party, nog spilled everywhere, joeys playing with the streamers, mistletoe rampant, Peter Cook in the corner trying to count the mawwiage licenses)

You don’t suppose that t-shirt site has shirts that say “My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.” shirts, do you? That’s my family’s favorite quote . . . . .

92 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 10:00 pm

AmyH…someone came to CO the next day wearing a collar, as well – wasn’t you by any chance, was it?

93 AuntieMame 12.07.06 at 10:04 pm

“Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.”

And his grammar sucks, too. :-)

94 Theo 12.07.06 at 10:05 pm

Erm… was the collar in question priestly or studded?
Perhaps Elizabethan?

95 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 10:07 pm

T., it was beastly and stunning. Umm…someone told me that, yeah.

96 lurkertype 12.07.06 at 10:24 pm

I am slain by the punnage. It’s all koalaity stuff.

One time I went to a Mandy Patinkin concert (fabulous singing voice on that man, if ya didn’t know). He sang for what seemed like hours, came back for encores, then just when you thought it was over, he runs back onstage and says, “I almost forgot!” He strikes a fencing pose. The Crowd. Goes. Wild.

Then he and the audience chant, “My name is Inigo…etc… prepare to DIE!” He gives a big flourishy bow and the crowd whoops and cheers.

THAT’s a big-time ending.

97 Theo 12.07.06 at 10:25 pm

Lurk — wow. Goosebumps. Honest.

98 Mia 12.07.06 at 10:28 pm

I actually got to see Mandy Patinkin on Broadway in Evita about a million years ago…you’re right about his voice!

99 E. Collison 12.07.06 at 10:28 pm

And here I am, thinking that the pic is some sort of weird lago-morph. (I’m not drinking tonight, so I have no excuse!)

You peeps better watch yourselves. You’re starting to sound mildly orgiastically inclined….

100 Mia 12.07.06 at 10:31 pm

…and there IS a “Hello, my name is Inigo Montoy…” T on that site! Click on the Movies category and go from there.

101 Mia 12.07.06 at 10:32 pm

aarrgghh…”Inigo Montoya”

102 Peg of Tilling 12.07.06 at 10:34 pm

Mildly?

103 Emc^2 12.07.06 at 10:34 pm

Yep, there’s an Inigo Montoya shirt… It’s under ‘Movies’, then ‘The Princess Bride’ (which is alphabetized under ‘the’, of course).

Also:

“Have fun storming the castle!”

PS: I knew of Mandy Potenkin as a singer and Broadway star long before he was a swordsman or a doctor… And, although I don’t know him personally at all, the description of his concert sounds just like I’ve heard: a man who truly loves performing.

104 MOFO 12.07.06 at 10:36 pm

DUDE, I WISH KANGA WAS AVAILABLE TO BOX AT A CUSTOMER NAMED “SANDY” TODAY.

105 Claudia 12.07.06 at 10:41 pm

Would anyone mind if I borrowed the roo for a bit? I have a coworker who is going to be five hours late and I’ve had to cover for him. My foot is not big enough to express my thoughts on the matter.

106 Theo 12.07.06 at 10:45 pm

Mofo and Claudia — I’m sorry, but this is a *kissing* ‘roo. Only. Try this instead:
http://www.wackyplanet.com/bokatoy.html

107 J. Bo 12.07.06 at 10:55 pm

E2C– I, too, at first thought that was one big honkin’ bunny.

(Wait. Maybe it is…)

108 AmyH 12.07.06 at 10:57 pm

No, Aubrey, I wasn’t the one with the collar. Hmmm… Who could it have been? It’s just so hard keeping track of your fake fiancees.

109 Lauri 12.07.06 at 11:00 pm

Mandy Patinken and excellent voice….so true! And what a fantastic way to end his concert! How awesome!

110 Aubrey 12.07.06 at 11:29 pm

Well, you know, AmyH, I “don’t dish the dirt with the rest of the girls.”

Anyway, I gave you a plastic ring. Very pretty it was, too.

111 AmyH 12.07.06 at 11:38 pm

It was a lovely ring, that. I cherished it. Until I lost it. Guess my cherishing only goes so far. Sigh.

112 mofo 12.07.06 at 11:43 pm

claudia: 5 hours late? sandy must have killed off the co-workers parents.

113 Mouse 12.08.06 at 12:22 am

I so needed a roo-smooch. My boyfriend (of six months) just dumped me. On the phone. In the middle of my law school exams. Jerk.

114 mofo 12.08.06 at 12:34 am

mouse: sandy must have taken him away

115 Mel 12.08.06 at 1:31 am

Mouse: I’m having your week.

116 constance 12.08.06 at 1:37 am

Mouse! That’s awful. I had a boyfriend do that to me while I was in the middle of studying for my organic chemistry final,that is truly crapy.

On the up side, at least you didn’t invest alot of time in the loser! On to bigger and better things!

117 chet's momma 12.08.06 at 1:49 am

*erm, uh yah, couldya check me quick to see if thar’s any bats in ma cave, if ya nose what i mean, heh, heh….*

118 Wade 12.08.06 at 1:54 am

HEY MEG, didn’t know if you knew this already or not, but you’re linked on Collegehumor.com today under their hotlinks. It’s listed as “Counterargument to ‘Dogs Rule, Cats Drool’ “.

119 eikoleigh 12.08.06 at 2:11 am

I LOVE IT….!

120 Theo 12.08.06 at 2:14 am

Wade — link please? I couldn’t find it.

122 Theo 12.08.06 at 2:21 am
123 J. Bo 12.08.06 at 2:28 am

Mouse– that ex is a cad and a toad and you are well shut of him.

[passing the butterscotch]
Have some puddin’, hon’.

124 mif 12.08.06 at 4:40 am

i prefer this inigo montoya t-shirt to the one on the site mentioned above: http://www.80stees.com/products/Inigo-Montoya-Princess-Bride-T-shirt.asp

i love that guy.

125 Subhangi 12.08.06 at 2:20 pm

[stares sadly at the remains of the party]

Wow. Amazing that I’m half a day ahead but always late.

[trudges away]

126 LB in Cali 12.08.06 at 8:42 pm

IT WAS MOVING AND IT SCAREDED ME!
