"Teddy bear - life size!"

Spot the flaw.

Bears... are like... really really large.

When I was a tiny creature, I had this five foot tall bright orange stuffed rabbit. He had a purple stomach and paw pads.

I lived in Texas at the time. Once I picked him up and there was a large scorpion under him.

True story.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

Oh, God. If that happened to me, I would still wake up screaming.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

And not, in the red meaty sense, alive.

[shoiryu.livejournal.com]

Which part, the rabbit or the scorpion?

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

Now that I think about it, either.

[shoiryu.livejournal.com]

I think we pawned the rabbit off on Goodwill eventually. I feel for the kid who got THAT for Christmas.

My youngest sister has an "almost life-size" plush lioness. Teh HUGE.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

Ooo, like those giant mofos from FAO? Excellent!

There is no flaw, unless you're stuck in old-fashioned reality-based thinking. And that could be why you can't see the life-sized teddy bears in Iraq armed with WMDs.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

The ones in Iraq are those fucking Desert Drop Bears.

I hate those bastards.

What is this FAO you speak of? o.o

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

FAO Schwarz, giant, upscale NYC toy store. Tom Hanks danced on a keyboard there in Big. Which I've never seen, because it sounds godawful. But he did. Anyway, they sell giant-ass stuffed animals. www.fao.com

....I seem to remember a somewhat very extremely large toystore in New York. Maybe I've been there, ahaha. My dad hates, loathes and despises Tom Hanks, but says Big was his only good movie. o.o

Once on a Godzilla collecting list, someone asked which Godzilla model was closest to "the real Godzilla."

[katemonkey.livejournal.com]

A teddy bear done ate my leg!

Those fuckers are vicious in the wild, yo.

[finabair.livejournal.com]

The keyboard was, I think, the best scene. I liked the movie, but I kinda like sickeningly cute movies, so, y'know, take that with a grain of salt.

Obviously, the 1/6 scale rubber suit for Takara Cyborg guy.

Did he mean...romantically, or what?

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

I know I've been in the vicinity of the store, but never actually seen it. Alas, my hugemest toy store experience are a couple of NJ Toys R Uses. That's, like, plural of 'Us,' and not plural of 'Use.'

Your Dad is completely, utterly, wrong. Toy Story is his only good movie.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

I know. I'm always careful to check your book recs for magic horses. *ducks*

Hey, the new Kage Baker shipped!

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

With their little nubby teeth. Bastards!

[ahli.livejournal.com]

THE 'BURBS. XD

[finabair.livejournal.com]

Hey! I...uh...well...

Shoot! I KNEW I was forgetting something! *goes to find nearest bookstore*

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

Nobody here carries her anymore. I pre-ordered from Amazon. It's somewhere in the clutches of the USPS. :/

Unfortunately it's supposed to be Mendoza-heavy, and dammit I want to know what happened to Lewis!

[ouchie.livejournal.com]

Toys rule. :D
