Do you talk to your stuffed animal collection?

The Turkey never talked back, and let me take what I wanted.

 

If only yer lady would do that. We'd call you King!


Ahhahahahahaha

 

I'll tell that I don't want any back talk...I'm takeing some of that leg. Hahaha

I've said similar stuff before. Depending on her mood, sometimes it works.

 

I usually wait until I know I can get away with it. I have to get her in the mood before I talk like that.

Working rotating shifts, I don't act like that a whole lot any more though.

 

I think I also want to find a realistic look Dragon. Drachenblut!

 

i used to do the exact same thing with my family of stuffed creatures. but then i moved on to elementary school and they all moved to the basement, where i assume they still are.

 

That's kind of sad I think because in all honesty the stuffed animals are better creatures than most humans.

 

I just looked on Ebay. I just keep finding oil that you rub on your skin. I guess that's because there is a dragon blood plant or something that has oil in it.

 

I would name him Drachenblut =p just search for dragon hehe
There's also a red wine fermented on the Rhine I believe also called Drachenblut.
Or it might be a mead.. I can't remember.

 

Oh, I was searching for dragon blood dragon.

 

I have one stuffed animal I kept. The only other ones I would have wanted were lost somehow after DCS picked me up. But I still have my favorite stuffed mutt pup and yes I do talk to it sometimes.

Don't judge me.

No judging by me, shows you have an imagination. Imaginations are very attractive.

 

I still have the very first stuffed animal I ever got, a teddy bear my uncle bought when I was just born. I named him Beary and I spoon with him when I sleep, lol. He's fat and has short stubby legs that don't make much sense. I also have a Wizzer doll from 101 Dalmatians that I got when I was 9 that I've been ridiculously attached to. The paint's worn off his eyes. I don't talk to them much anymore, a good chunk of my imagination died with adulthood, but I still remember how their voices used to sound in my head. Wizzer sounded a little like Mickey Mouse and Beary's always been mute, lol. But absolutely, in the event of a fire, my bear and stuffed puppy are the first possessions I save, no doubt about it. The sentimental value could never ever be replaced.

 

When I got Rufus he went everywhere with me. He went in luggage, on planes, on buses... Into our hotel rooms he had a great young puppy life. As he aged not even two years of having him you could tell he was wearing out. He went from a sort of yellow and white to a grey mustard color. Now he's 7 years old and looks like he does in his picture.
I wondered how long it would take for him to wear out where we couldn't play with him anymore. The thought still puts tears in my eyes. I fought so hard to get another one but they weren't the same, they were all different and not Rufus. I gave up. Then one day a friend in Australia emailed me. I had noticed at his place too he had the exact same Rufus but called him Max I was so excited to see it. He emailed me with a subject "big dog" and I was like OMG OMG and the email said I could pick it up whenever I wanted.
But I had moved back to Germany.
So I rang my sister and got her to pick him up for me.
I brang him back with us when I visited not long after.
He is locked up in a cupboard all brand new, honestly looks nothing like my old one anymore but it's still so cute, we have a spare. =] but the thought of losing original Rufey still makes me tear.

 

Cool. :2thumbsup:

 

For those who think stuffed bears are only for small children, who do you think went to see this little guy's movie?

The humor is definitely inappropriate for little kids. This bear has a mouth like an electrician, drinks beer constantly, smokes weed, and hangs out with hookers.

My husband and I sometimes compete to see who can come up with the most clever and entertaining new storyline for our bears. Sometimes, it's almost as good as a scene from that movie.

 

I did not enjoy that movie myself (and not because I dislike teddybears or anything ). I just thought the idea could be fun for a movie but it wasn't really done that great. Just the cliché humour I would expect of the idea of an adolescent teddybear. I enjoyed the movie Paul (the alien) better, also not a highlight in comedy entertainment but still.

 

I liked "Paul" the movie,not hilarious but pleasant.I like all of Simon Pegg's stuff and the other guy he works with...Can't remember his name.They first got successful with a made for TV comedy called "Spaced" which I loved.I posted up the second episode in the comedy forum here on Hip a while ago.There are several episodes of "Spaced" on YouTube and I think you can get the whole series at the Channel Four website.

 

You're missing my point. The movie is just one example of adults finding ways to have creative fun with a children's toy. Media examples go back at least as far as the late 1940's, when early Buggs Bunny cartoons had jokes making reference to things that most children would not understand. Clearly, the writers thought that adults could get into a talking animal fantasy for a few moments, and enjoy it. It has nothing to do with the fact that we all know animals can't really speak or understand English.

 

I love most of what I saw of them too :biggrin: Their parody on zombie movies (shaun of the dead) is great, and I also digged the movie where he played a London cop in a small town village. I'm unaware of Spaced but since you recommend them I'll look it up (some time )!

I got that point perfectly I just wanted to add that just because the movie got made doesn't mean it is a good example, for me personally at least, since I did not find it very creative overall, but easy and predictable instead.
