That Fribo thing is scary, I would not want something in my house spying on my every move and telling my friend what time I come home or when I open the fridge!!
Talk about loss of privacy!
Well, my gut reaction was that it sounds more like a plot device in some grim, dystopian novel than a real idea. But then I thought it might be a good way for adult children to keep a virtual eye on senile parents. If mom or dad isn’t moving around or opening the fridge, you could check up on them, and they couldn’t just blithely lie about how well they’re getting around.
OMG, that turtle story would have been perfect for April Fool’s day. I almost had to double check that it wasn’t since an animal like that doesn’t sound even possible. Mohawk? Breathes through its genitals? Mother Nature can be weird sometimes.
Loving the other links too – yeah for re-introducing bison into Banff Nat’l Park. Fribo does kinda creep me out but at the same time, it’s kinda nice knowing that someone else knows that you’re home. And the interview, hysterical!!!! Love this line, who’s idea was it to set up here anyway? I mean really, I guess they thought the penguins wouldn’t be so noisy.
A green mohawk and spikes on its chin. Punk rock turtle, indeed!
I want to snuggle with all those little marmie kitties! Love that there is a pair of each shade.
“fluffcow” needs to be added to the Cute vocabulary.
Can’t watch penguins here 🙁 Will save for home later.
Hear! Hear! for fluffcow!
Ditto!
Penglings for the win.
Honk honk hooooonnnnkkkk !!
The flying Hooooonk is good, isn’t it??? And love the fluffcow, and the kitties. While I love doxies, those golden idols are pretty horrific looking. Adore the turtle.
Such talent.
What kind of Pokémon is this?
That robot thingy reminds me of
I already have one of the above in my house watching my every move! I don’t need a robot. At least the one I have doesn’t tell all my friends what I’m doing!
To the penguin guy, did we learn nothing from WC Fields?
The penguins had me roflmaoing this afternoon, then I finally had time to check on the orange muffins, fluffcow, and punk turtle just now. Brilliant! Fascinating! Adorable!
I agree Mike, Fluffcow is a wee little fluffer walker! Squeeeee!
