(So this is what she wants. Some lanky dreamboat with a nice smile and a desk job at some insurance company. What’s he got that I haven’t got? Besides a neck?)
(Can he give you true freedom? Can he show you the thrill of standing atop a raging waterfall and snatching salmon from the air like a god? Has he ever stared at the stars on a clear forest night and just watched them sparkle like they were there just for us? Have you forgotten, Becky? Didn’t that night mean anything?)
(Well, I hope this makes you happy. I hope you like your cookie-cutter ranch house with your two-point-seven children screaming dusk til dawn while you wait for Prince Charming to come home from a hard day of butt-kissing. Have a good life.)
I give it a year, Andrew Y. (via Mashable)
I’ll have the Salmon.
Ha! ? ?
Could this have been photoshopped? It’s hard to believe that the bear isn’t thinking exactly what the captions say. That bear expresses emotion through his facial expressions like a great actor.
according to bored panda its not:

“Did you say ‘I do?'”
This post completes me.
I love this so much!
Of course, this Canadian classic comes to mind.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought of that book.
FKAWalden and BFB, you make it sound like it’s required reading in Canada!
It almost is Fritz, I went to an art high school and read it there as her son actually went to school with me as well. It seems unbelievable but it really did win the GG award. Engel was a very respected, (still is) writer.
Pick it up, it is a short read– very 70’s Canadian feminism.
That is somewhat disturbing
Apparently a lot of people outside Canada found their way to the work via the imgur site mentioned here: https://sarabynoe.com/tag/marian-engel/
And there’s a movie too! You can find the trailer on youtube.
I would take the bear over the butt-kisser any day. He’s definitely a heart breaker. I’ve never been in tears over a bear’s expression before.
Bear was probably grumpy about this couple taking all the attention. “I’m the bear! I’m the star attraction around here!”
Either that or he’s upset that he can’t understand the priest of Princess Bride.
Ah, but would this be any better?
As you wish Becky.
By the way, the wedding took place in a zoo. (Maybe Fiona could be a bridesmaid.)
Mike – You are hilarious!!!
I started a laugh riot at work with this post. Someone came over to see what had me guffawing, then she busted out too.
I’m not sure if NTMTOM has done this before — after so many posts he probably has — but I don’t remember the main text and the captions being entirely different gags before — and both being so good. Well done. In one version, the bear would be the guy objecting when the celebrant says the “speak now or forever hold your peace” line; in the other version, he IS the celebrant.
