Cute Overload :D
I’ll see your bookshelf Peeps diorama, and raise you the fourth annual Washington Post Peeps Diorama Contest, which drew over 1,100 entries, some recreating classic movie moments like Peep Side Story…
…and Alfred Hitchcock’s The Peeps. Check out a slideshow of top entrants and see full coverage at the Washington Post site.
Thanks for putting up with yesterday’s April Fool’s trickery. Since some people asked, here are two videos that we used in pranks, in their unadulterated form.
Schnauzer vs. Elmo: Who will prevail?
Buddy laying around in the sink:
When bored, some doodle and some daydream. But when the smarty-pants “peeps” in a certain Department of English get bored, they stage elaborate set-ups recreating the works of Poe, Shakespeare, Austen, and Dickens, and then throw in a vampire and pirate for good measure.
I honestly don’t know what to say about this, Shannon B. Congratulations…?

Also, take a look at Pleix’s commercial for Duracell: Today’s weather calls for a swirling vortex of bunnies, transforming into sumo wrestlers by mid-afternoon…
Thanks to Phillip P.
UPDATE: Switched to YouTube versions. If you had trouble viewing the videos, try them now.
You always knew your pup was a bit of a bird-brain; now he can actually tweet. At this year’s New York Toy Fair, Mattel announced Puppy Tweets, a collar tag with sensors linked to your home computer via Wi-Fi. The tag sends a tweet to your dog’s Twitter account whenever the animal moves, barks, or naps.
And here’s the… uh… extreme… erm.
Twitter! It’s Tweets for Twits, and now your Spitz.
I know ya’ll are busy watching the Who at the Superbowl Halftime show, but in case you were looking for something a litttle less Amerrrrican and something a little more of the crocheted, Japanese, Ukulele variety, settle in for some sweet videos:
Via Boing Boing. Listen to U900 tracks, see pics and watch vids over at their MySpace.
Step right up, folks—test yah skill! Three balls for a dollah! Knock down the lead-weighted milk bottles, and win your choice from the stuffed-animal shelf!
And if you can knock down the bottles with just one ball, you win today’s grand prize: This authentic, gin-you-wine, Cute Overload Extreme Close-up!
Christina C. says: “We just adopted a baby pug and named her Julie Bean. In this photo, she is itemizing the stuffed animals for tax purposes.”
I have no idea what you’re talking about… so here’s a book about a rabbit with a pancake on its head.
From 1999 to 2003, Hironori Akutagawa photographed his rabbit, Oolong, with various objects perched on his conveniently flat head. Now the photos have been compiled in a book titled In Almost Every Picture 8 from KesselKramer Publishing.
We eagerly await the sequel, featuring a bunny with a book about a bunny with objects on its head on its head.
Just what your coffee table’s been yearning for, Kyra M.
