that’s a biiig tongue, but he’s oh so hugeable!!

2 JH 03.27.07 at 7:43 pm

NOT first!!!!

I wish people could hibernate like bears. I would look forward to my hibernation.

Check the claws. YIKES!

3 zeldapie 03.27.07 at 7:44 pm

Bebeh Bear: Blerf!

4 echo 03.27.07 at 7:44 pm

Tsk tsk! He is way too young to have a hang-over!

5 hrh.squeak 03.27.07 at 7:48 pm

“Don’t you just hate when you wake up from hibernating and your mouth tastes like a mouse slept in it . . . . . ooooh, not gonna think about that one.”

6 Eastie 03.27.07 at 7:51 pm

I love the tongue and pink nose!

Just to be a bit of a spelling nazi…”your SUPER HUNGRY” should be “you’re.” :)

7 CuteBabyFix.com 03.27.07 at 8:02 pm

I bet his tongue is real soft. And Eastie, I don’t know if you’ve noticed but creative spelling is sort of encouraged here.

8 CuteBabyFix.com 03.27.07 at 8:04 pm

Oh, and i want to kiss his nose. Twice.

9 Mary 03.27.07 at 8:07 pm

That’s kind of what I look/feel/smell like on Daylight Savings Time Monday.. have to get up for work an hour early .. bleah!!!!

10 Laurie C 03.27.07 at 8:08 pm

Whatever the drawbacks of hiberntation, at the end of it you get hugged by a lady in a nice pink parka.

11 maymee 03.27.07 at 8:19 pm

[claws flex] hehehehe oh Meg you kill me. :)

12 anner 03.27.07 at 8:31 pm

aw! teh eye capsules! so groggy. and what a lovely pink nose.

13 liz 03.27.07 at 8:34 pm

Aw, man, I am in bear heaven right now. Does someone know I love bears and otters (baby otters, but whatever) most of all? I feel all warm and fuzzy.

14 grammar nazi 03.27.07 at 8:38 pm

Would that be YOU’RE super hungry?

15 Redzilla 03.27.07 at 8:40 pm

Bear: “Hey, Corgi! Gimmee back my jar of peanut buttah!”

16 Eastie 03.27.07 at 8:50 pm

CBF.com – Ah, I didn’t realize it was creative spelling. Okey dokey then!

17 Theresa 03.27.07 at 9:07 pm

I went to the Discovery Channel Page, and saw the expression “nuisance bears.” Phooey. Nuisance people, methinks. :P

18 fifi 03.27.07 at 9:15 pm

that bear looks like he’s got some serious morning breath

19 Gryph 03.27.07 at 9:17 pm

I think he is catching snow flakies on his tongue. *nosepoke*

20 Theo 03.27.07 at 9:33 pm

JH — “NOT first” ??
Ironically, I think that IS a first, at least on this board.

21 nutmeg 03.27.07 at 9:41 pm

For some reason i really want to reach out and grab his big tongue.

22 nutmeg 03.27.07 at 9:44 pm

And then I want that little bear to realize that it’s still snowing, therefore hibernation should not have ended yet, and then I will go snuggle in his den with him. Mmmmm.

23 Suda Nim 03.27.07 at 9:46 pm

Bear trivia: When they’re ready for hibernation, having gorged themselves in preparation, their blood contains so much fat that it’s pink.

You’re welcome.

24 Jason 03.27.07 at 10:09 pm

This is the best kind of cute. Cute on an animal that isn’t supposed to be cute.

25 AuntieMame 03.27.07 at 10:33 pm

That’s the way I feel every morning. Pleh!

You’ve heard the joke about the different way some people react to morning? Some say “Good morning, Lord!” and others say “Good Lord, it’s morning!”

I’m afraid I’m not even that articulate. I’m more like “Oh ^%$#!”

27 Scarlett K. 03.27.07 at 10:46 pm

Freakish!!

28 thalias_ash 03.27.07 at 11:16 pm

Someone fix that bearling some french toast! Stat!

29 pren 03.27.07 at 11:35 pm

omg i just died of the cute!!

30 another grammar nazi 03.27.07 at 11:43 pm

Nah, CBF, your vs you’re was pure grammatical error. However, *now* that it’s been changed to yer, you can defend it with the “creative spelling” argument.

I love the way the pink contrasts with the black of the bear, and is in so many hues — the parka, the tongue, the nose, the gloves. Schnozzicle! I’d beep it if I didn’t think he’d bite my hand off.

31 CuteBabyFix.com 03.28.07 at 12:02 am

Dang- I *know* it was a grammatical thingy but people are so harsh! Give Meg a break for pete’s sake- she is pumping out teh cute so fast it is prolly making her head spin. Think, she has to do all this while trying not to esplode herself. An where would we all be with CO? Working? I don’t think so!

32 Theo 03.28.07 at 12:05 am

Now I’m really tempted to edit the post and TOTALLY tweak all the spellings into LOLcatspeak… or 1337… or AIMtext… [rubbing hands] [chuckling]

33 Lady Ann 03.28.07 at 12:10 am

Ick! Early spring breath!

34 Allison 03.28.07 at 12:35 am

I think my favorite part may be that the photo is labeled “Study Participant” on the source page.

35 Brava97 03.28.07 at 12:36 am

Before I die, I want to hold a bebeh bear cub. Please, God, pleeeaaaase?

36 Shy Sunshine 03.28.07 at 12:45 am

Is there a Rule of Cuteness concerning tongues? If not, there should be!

37 BrianMPLS 03.28.07 at 12:52 am

Theo, if you let me help, I’d be willing to translate even the comments up through now.

Well, by ‘now’ I mean whenever I get around to finishing it. Which will be after the food that just got here.

38 P. Erasmus 03.28.07 at 1:23 am

Shiny Happy otters holding hands!

Oh no! They are drifting apart…

YAY! Reunited once again!

“…and ya come outta yer log wi’ a killah headache. Anyone have any Bayer’s Aspirin?”

41 Shy Sunshine 03.28.07 at 1:49 am

I just felt like pointing this amazing figure out: I went to Technorati and typed in “cute” (cause, dam cute is everywhere these days) just to see Meg’s cute impact. People, it’s amazing how much Cute has exploded since July of last summer. I was flabergasted! No wonder cute is taking over the world, look at how much people are loving it!

http://technorati.com/chart/cute?chartdays=360&language=n&authority=n

Meg, your a true hero. Animals everywhere thank you ;D Me too!

42 Tor 03.28.07 at 2:28 am

Clearly a theme, my friends. Tongue! It could be a category in itself, could it not? But I guess folks are always suggesting new categories. Still…thunder just boomed in the background as I was typing this, so maybe Someone thinks it is a good idea after all…Um, time to go to battery; let’s not push the heavenly bodies tooooo far.

43 Clarice 03.28.07 at 3:52 am

Can’t you tell he’s just trying to catch the snowflakes on his tongue?

44 Cat Feral 03.28.07 at 4:52 am

Well what can I say? AWWWWWW!!!!!

45 Suzanne 03.28.07 at 4:54 am

Aubrey, wouldn’t that be Bear’s Aspirin? :P

Gryph I agree with you…he’s catchin’ snowflakes with his tongue…like all little cubbies (bear and human) do in the winter.

46 Subhangi 03.28.07 at 5:09 am

“GRAH. I hate waking up early.”

Lots of pinks in this pic.

47 Carlisa 03.28.07 at 6:55 am

Ain’t no such a word as “yer” asposa be “yor”

48 CuteBabyFix.com 03.28.07 at 11:50 am

Dewds- I’m pretty sure bears can’t spell. Cause don’t they have very little brain? The original Pooh Bear stories have all kindsa jokes about how Pooh’s spelling is good, but wobbly. If we must have spelling I would like it to be wobbly. And Bear Aspirin- that was so funny I snorted.

49 layla42 03.28.07 at 12:39 pm

I wanna poke that tounge!

They may be Godless killing machines–but they sure are cute when they’re babies!

50 violetgreen 03.28.07 at 12:52 pm

Note that the woman holding him is taking advantage of this rare bear-snorgling opportunity. Good grrrrl!

51 thepetmuseum 03.28.07 at 1:13 pm

Oh look at the rubbery snout! Smooche.

52 Theo 03.28.07 at 1:33 pm

Carlisa — OMG yor riet.

53 Pheas 03.28.07 at 2:29 pm

It’s chocolate-covered Knut!

(Hey, there’s a new post up, but the comments link doesn’t seem to be working.)

54 soxfan 03.28.07 at 2:38 pm

I’ve noticed that too Pheas. Darn. I was gonna go for it!

55 jaypo 03.28.07 at 2:45 pm

Yah, no, no link. :-(

Bear says: bleh bleh bleh, bleh bleh!
jaypo: [beep]

56 Pheas 03.28.07 at 3:17 pm

It’s fixed. Yay!

57 Connie 03.28.07 at 3:39 pm

Laurie C what make you so sure that’s a lady in a pink parka. Real men wear pink too!

58 Lauri 03.28.07 at 4:13 pm

He’s justa bebe bear, so he ken say yer.

Yer yer yer.

(bleen)

59 Laurie C 03.28.07 at 4:19 pm

Connie, too true. Equal opportunity parkage.

60 JP 03.28.07 at 4:21 pm

It looks like the bear is trying to catch snowflakes on its tongue. Too cute!

61 ask-god-a-question.com 03.28.07 at 5:02 pm

its tongue is still asleep

62 luvinmalssomuch 03.28.07 at 6:08 pm

Someone anyone give him some water, he’s thirsty.

63 Laurie 03.28.07 at 10:56 pm

Has anyone proposed the *Head Dome* as a rule of cuteness? The higher the dome rises above the ears, the greater the degree of cuteness.

64 Kats 03.29.07 at 1:20 pm

This bear is so adorable. My God! So vulnerlable and sweet. It’s nose looks like one of those pink erasers we used to use in school.

God…so lovely

65 Julie 03.29.07 at 3:52 pm

Am I the only one who thinks that’s a little girl holding the cub, and not a woman?

66 Theo 03.29.07 at 4:00 pm

Julie — I think there’s at least 2 humans in evidence here: one wearing the black glove, one wearing the pink parka.

67 Julie 03.29.07 at 4:43 pm

Theo — I know. :)
