Okay, so we all know how I love creatures and weird things and especially odd and FUGLY. So much so, in fact, that not one, but TWO of you sent me this picture:
Oh, wrinkly baby aardvark, how I love you!!! Much thanks to both of you for sending it and making my heart a little warmer. Of course, once AGAIN, B said I can’t have one. He’s such a meanie-head. I mean, maybe it would think all our dust bunnies were ants! It’d be economical and efficient! B just can’t think outside of the box like me. Wait, I just realized that aardvarks are not the same thing as anteaters. Going back to bed for more sleep now…
Anyhoosits, I also saw this commercial this week, which made me absolutely SQUEEEE for joy and do a happeee dance. If it’s really old and you’ve all seen it a million times, I apologize, but it’s new and bright and shiny for ME and that’s really what counts, isn’t it?
KassyK, this one’s for you. *WINK*

that aardvark looks like it should be able to fly with those things. and i don’t how you say no to a flying baby aardvark
Every time I hear (or read) the word aardvark I think of Arthur the Aardvark. That was my jam in high school. Yes– I know it was supposed to be for little kids, but it was very educational!
He/she/it is so damn cute! Too bad it’s going to grow up into prehistoric, lumbering, nostril-hair-covered road kill.
I hear ya cluckin big chicken!
I’m a fuggly luver too…Hence SB!
I like armadillos for a fugly animal – although they definitely aren’t as cuddly-looking.
Loved the commercial. I’m unplugged, and have never seen it. There used to be one – think it was for brakes?? – I honestly don’t remember, that had a similar ‘squirrel in the road’ scene. The squirrels were daring each other to run out in the road, high-fives were exchanged, etc. I believed it.
f.B: THANK YOU.
Maxie: Arthur the Aartvark! Omg, thank you for bringing back that memory.
emmajames: He/she/it, EXACTLY. You nailed it.
Fiona: Fugly is the new Sexy!
Connie: I remember that other commercial! It was adorable as well, even if squirrels are just rats in cuter clothing.
That thing is UGLY.
That is all.
Hehe, just read this. Love it.
Katherine: FUGly. Not ugly. Don’t hate.
KassyK: It was totally for you, lady.
