No Rest for the Vigilant

I have received many examples of Teddy Bears Dressed as Other Animals and related TBDOA-like phenomena in the past months. Thank you to all of the Watchers out there. Your vigilance will not go unpunished! Or unrewarded! Whatever! This is my first experience as a collector-of-signs-of-the-apocalypse, so I don't really know what I am doing. I do know that my inbox is getting rather crowded, so as I purge it, I will lay out the following for your perusal. Do you see why there is no rest for us? What is happening to humanity?!?!?!?


Not sure if this is a bear or what.
It's like a bear, but with beaver teeth and camel toes.
Whatever it is, it is a sign that
things are not right in the world.

Hello kitty dressed as panda,

holding panda-head purse

= unparalleled horror

Bears as heroic figures?!?


Bear as Cyrano de Bergerac.


Bear as Charlie Chaplin


Bears as assorted uniformed peoples


Bears as Monkees

Bears dressed to the nines


Bear is duck's clothing;

I think we've covered this one.


Sad bears looking frivolous.


Child being consumed by a bear in a suit and tie,

and trying to force its way out through the trachea.


Bears going postal.


Bears exploiting our sense of patriotism.

For shame!


A dog in a bee costume, atop baby clothes.

Where should I begin with the list of all that is wrong here?!?

No.


Bears lost in Oz.


Black bear disguised as a fashionable holiday hat.


This bear isn't disguised as anything,

he is just sad to be included.


Bear in giraffe suit, with giraffe-snout muzzle.

I had to include this one again,

in case you missed it the first time.

You're really trying to deprive me of sleep, aren't you? The poor child being consumed by the corporate bear? Horrifying.

I will have nightmares for days.

I knitting you a bear.
With clothes on, and stuff.

Hey, did you dig that green bear as the witch in Wizard of Oz?

And Hello, Kitty dressed as a panda?

Looked like scary Japanese mutation.

One day you must visit Torrington, Alberta for the pleasure of their Gopher Hole Museum ... a quaint collection of stuffed and dressed gophers in a variety of fashionable garb.

I thought that giraffe suit was on a stuffed cow...hmmm either way I agree that this is wrong and should be banned....

Crystal said...

AAH! That panda is eating Hello Kitty!
Don't just stand there! Someone DO something!
