Scientists have just discovered an entirely new breed among even-toed ungulates, long hidden in the lakes and rivers of deep sub-Saharan Africa: the Hippobottomus.
@lanie …. Me too! I guess the idea works like shining up propane tanks—it reflects the heat! Whatever the reason, I wouldn’t mind hanging w/ baby hippos!
I hazard the guess, that these fellows & gals go for THA REAL HARDCORE stuff; TURTLE WAX. The can/ paste kind (`1970s era, folks); not no Wimpy pour-on stuff from a bottle ….

Arigato, everyone. But your most generous and flattering accolades are in fact compliments for Oakley-Sensei. I am merely an acolyte….a ponderer of all puns Oakley….a grasshopper.
O pun of Oakley:
spark; guide; inspiration for
“hippobottomus”
By the way, won’t all of you still here after the Great Kitteh Brouhaha of 2010 join me in a round of Qte adulation and devotion? One, two three….
We love you, Ceeee-eeee—-Ooooohhhhhhh
Oh yes we dooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We love you Ceee-eeee—Oooooohhhhhhh
Our hearts are truuuuuuuuuue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When my siter and I were kids, “Cutest little bottom I ever did see!” was heard frequently in our house. But I dunno, I just prefer to look at my babies’ faces. More snorgle-able.
You were right the first time about politicians when you wrote “it’s ‘one in the same’”. IMHO, their brains are usually found up their ‘tocks. But that’s just my opinion.
I’m sorry. I had to. I apologize in advance. You will hate me if you click on this link. Or laugh your tocks off. Or just sit there in embarassed/horrified amazement. Or think it’s hilarious. I just thought it kind of fit.
I need whatevah he/she’s using to moisturize with. I’ve got a groom shop (and get the joy of playing with puppies, kitties, bunnehs, and guinea pigs all day, lawl) and mah hands get like a mummy’s in the winter.
OK, I’m going to admit it: I am not familiar with this phrase, although I take it as an indication of approval. I just Googled it, but all the results looked like things I probably didn’t want to open….
It’s from the early-Nineties comedy show, “In Living Color.” In one recurring sketch, Damon Wayans and David Allen Grier are film reviewers, and snaps are their substitute for “thumbs up.” Two snaps up in a circle was good; I have since learned that there were better reviews, such as “three snaps in a Z–the Zorro snap!” I confess that I don’t remember much of the real content except this famous quote (although Jim Carrey as Fire Marshal Bill was funny), but you are probably wise not to go to any site that prominently features it, except maybe an “In Living Color” fan page or something.
Just meant “Crisco Kid” was really funny!

Subtopic: ….shall I say, “being fabulous”????
Almost every sketch had a sassy variation of finger-snapping when they approved of a particular item or topic: from
..”two snaps up, in a circle….”
to and / including “the yet unheard of Zorro snap,
in Z formation!”
In one episode, one of the “hosts” / “hostesses”???
review, of one particular film consisted of the following:
“Three words: ‘fa – bu – lous’!”

I’m trying to remember all the words from “Glorious Mud” by Flanders and Swann. “A bold hippopotamus was standing one day, on the banks of the cool Shalimar…..”
Alyx – Maybe you are showing your age but who cares. I was singing their version of a Mozart horn concerto earlier today. “I miss it’s music more and more and more, without my horn I am feeling sad and so for-lor -orn…..”
oh muttluver–that VIDEO!! *shivers* and yet, why can’t guys here dance like that? (minus the terrifying outfit, of course!) (not that i mean “au naturel” that would be the only thing to make this MORE terrifying–i meant wearing normal clothes instead!)
haha!
I can see myself!
Peg, sweetheart, if you see yourself in those baby hippo ‘tocks, I think it’s time to make an appointment at the beauty salon.
@brinnan: would you suggest a shot of bo-tocks?
And maybe a little hipposuction.
HAW!
Look at those cute hippo Toesies!
“Hippo supposes his Toes-es are Roses…”
I [heart] beeg heepo toes!
i get it. haha
now those are some serious toe beans.
That is one tiny tail for such serious ‘tocks!
Shinny heinie!

*snorfs water out her nose with laughter*
Are there odd-toed ungulates too? Inquiring minds want to know.
“Hippobottomus” makes me laugh!
I think the odd-toed variety are classified as
“hippo-top-omus.”
Actually, the odd toed ungulates are rhinos,
tapirs,and horses,zebras and jackasses.
Look at the seriously bleeny toes!!!
So, zoos hire hippo shiners? I’d like to fill out an application.
@lanie …. Me too! I guess the idea works like shining up propane tanks—it reflects the heat! Whatever the reason, I wouldn’t mind hanging w/ baby hippos!
did you use armourall on those ‘tocks or are they your disco pleather pants!

@260Oak I think Denise has it this time.
@Denise A.: Ha! “Hippobottomus”–wonderful!
Shine on, Harvest Moon
It’s a two-fer from 260!
@Denise A. – BWahahaha. Thanks for that. Awesomeness.

Many thanks for the haikute, but you are no mere punderstudy! You shine in your own light (just like those hippopotomette ‘tocks).
Now, see, if I were really ready for the big time, I’d have thought of “punderstudy.” {{awe}}
We are all bathed in the glow of this shiny heiney.
“I can see myself!”

@denise a: when you’re not with us, we’re blue! oh commenters we love a-yoo!!
It was like it never even happened… Snicker!
awwww shiny
the cutest tocks have to be the hipo tocks
I think elephant tocks give hippo tocks a run for their money. But it’s close.
I DON’T SEE THE APPEAL OF TOCKS. (Maybe I’m just weird.) But this post made me giggle.
Don’t ‘tock it ’til you try it.
XD

Hippopota-tocks!
shiny
(browncoats agree)
*snorfs water out of nose again*
Can this hippobottomus kill you with his brain, or with his tocks? WHAT IF IT’S BOTH!?
No, only politicians can do that. Oh, wait! In their case, it’s not “both,” it’s “one in the same.”
Oops! “One -and- the same.”
You were right the first time about politicians when you wrote “it’s ‘one in the same’”. IMHO, their brains are usually found up their ‘tocks. But that’s just my opinion.
Next time any of you think of wearing leather trousers remember this picture
Haha, I defenitely keep that in mind!
Same goes for spandex.
“Spandex is a privilege, not a right.”
Spandex is a scourge and an abomination.
A dire offense against all that is good and true.

Not mine. Was on in the comments of a blog on how certain people should not wear speedos. Ever.
I’m sorry. I had to. I apologize in advance. You will hate me if you click on this link. Or laugh your tocks off. Or just sit there in embarassed/horrified amazement. Or think it’s hilarious. I just thought it kind of fit.
……..I thought it was a link. I’m sorry.
Um. What the heck did I just watch?!? I don’t know if I should laugh or be horrified. Maybe both. Music is catchy tho.
I opted for horrified amazement with intermittent giggling.
8: Eep.
Take two: 8-: Eeep.
How shine!!! I can almost see myself

CH, do you have the CO Page-a-Day calendar? That’s today’s pic! (Or one very similar to it.)
I need whatevah he/she’s using to moisturize with. I’ve got a groom shop (and get the joy of playing with puppies, kitties, bunnehs, and guinea pigs all day, lawl) and mah hands get like a mummy’s in the winter.
@ mamabear:
(me, in a whiny 4-yr old kid voice) ” i wantcher jooooooobbbbb!!!”
(at least the part about playing w/ critters. mummy hands? not so much…)
They call him the Crisco Kid.
Bwah-hah-hah-hah! Two snaps up, in a circle!

Has anyone mentioned buttered buns?
You just did LOL!
Wait…I did?
Hippotockamus? Has no one really already said that?
Perfect END to ‘tocktober : )
Does this mean we’ll be seeing this pic again on Sunday?
Shiny happeeeee tockies… having fun!
Beautifully buffed butt!
Who put the Turtle Wax on the hippo ‘tocks?!
Oh well… works great!
I have got to close my curtains!
Urge to do wax on, wax off on the ‘tocks!
I think my friend R. Kelly said it best
I’m trying to remember all the words from “Glorious Mud” by Flanders and Swann. “A bold hippopotamus was standing one day, on the banks of the cool Shalimar…..”
