Evidence of hatred (purchased and then mailed from Denver, with malice of forethought and considerable glee):
I used to think they liked me but clearly they do not. I mean, honestly, would you send this Bucktoothed Rope-Armed Troll-Haired Pantsless Wood Bear (is it a bear?) thing to anyone you liked? Even the cats were all “WTF?” about it.
THERE WILL BE RETALIATION. I don’t have Tina’s address but I do have Marigoldie’s.
[insert maniacal laughter here]
Also, this clearly went straight into the IWUS pool, because goddamn.

That’s real fur, you know.
marigoldie: Nice. WHOSE FUR IS IT?
HEE HEE HEE!
I’m sure the fur belonged to someone who didn’t need it anymore.
Also note that he is wearing a tie.
Forethought–check!
Considerable glee–check!
Malice–well, er, uh……check!
Clarification: He is wearing a HANDMADE tie.
Like I said in my email to you both: WATCH YOUR MAIL. A gift of similar charm will be coming your way … soon.
I also like how the vest is literally nailed to his, uh, torso.
It was made in Denmark.
Denmark, Hell, whatever.
Blame the Danes.
Oh man. I just remembered a vaguely similar thing I have from Denmark. I should have guessed its country of origin.
To make the experience even more painful, please imagine me singing “Blame it on the Danes” to the tune of Milli Vanilli’s “Blame it on the Rain.” And then, of course, complete the scenario by being unable to get the tune out of your head.
“Denmark, Hell, whatever.”
Heh.
I cannot wait to go to the flea market this weekend to find the juuuuuuuuuust right thank you gift for the two of you.
Also made in Denmark.
I WILL NOT GET THAT SONG STUCK IN MY HEAD.
…
Shit. Too late.
No really that’s okay you don’t have to buy us a thank you gift it’s really okay we don’t need one it’s the thought that counts I swear it isn’t necessary really please don’t.
Oh, it is ON.
Did you notice that the head comes off?
Yes indeed. The better to put on that fabulous tie.
Those Danes are innovative.
You should have seen me walk into the UPS Store all “I’d like to mail this, please” super-casually and stuff.
Heh. It’ll be not unlike that when I purchase your gift at the flea market. I will have to summon all of my calm to make said purchase without cracking up.
He’s so damn cute! I think they might really like you, no?
