Teddyport "Its discreet, its funky and now none of your friends will ever know you have a problem." Well, as long as they aren't observant enough to notice that you're ripping the head off of a stuffed bear and trying to drink from its neck...

This explains why there was a reeking wino pushing a shopping cart full of encrusted, filthy teddy bears down my street this morning. I just thought he was a furry on the skids.

WTFFilter? I thought this was a joke, but they do actually seem to be for sale. Ick.

This is one of the most pathetic ideas I've seen in a while. But I do like how the bears' heads pop out as though from under covers on the left side. Cute. Sick. Cutesick.

Pathetic? WTFFilter? Are you guys nuts?! This is awesome on so many levels.

the choice of the secretive drinker

!!!@#$!

(just because it's actually for sale doesn't mean it's serious).

And for secretive heroin users, they'll soon be introducing the Furry With The Syringe On Top.

What kind of person would want to drink in secret and would look normal carrying around a teddy bear?

1) President of a teddy bear factory

2) Department store santa/elf

3) ....

Three cheers for the current leader in the "Best Pun of 2005" competition... Mr. Crash Davis...!

This is pretty damn ridiculous.

Now, if they make a teddy bear into a bong, I'm all over it!

Think of the kids, though--no longer will they be forced, because of ill-placed societal pressures--to drink secretively from a flask in the recesses of the bathroom in the school's long-abandoned "dark learning" wing; instead, all the cool kids can drink from a port-encrusted, matted fur neck right in broad daylight!

that said, everyone knows the real cool kids get those camel packs that bicyclers use and fill them with vodka and grape juice.

The squirrel is much more inconspicuous.

Ok. EWWW.

But I agree, I'm sure it's much less noticeable to be toting around a dead squirrel...

As sketchy as it sounds, this IS a good way to get hard alcohol past security at professional sporting events. The old "flask in the pants" trick works too, but who would ever suspect that Grandma has a fifth of whisky hidden inside that cute teddy bear wearing a Raiders jersey?

4) "Pink" Goths (if filled with absinthe)
5) Piglet

I got lost on "pink goths" (which, only turns up 24 ghits, must be cutting edge...thanks for bringing us up to speed, FormlessOne!)

Well, there's no way to buy things in the store.

I wonder why they would pick port of all drinks? The bottles can come in such disparate shapes. It'd be as reasonable as a Stuffed Grapa Gorilla.

Fill it up with Bloody Marys.


Just a thought.

New From Ronco, it's the Plush Giraffe Bong!

Tired of The Man telling you not to toke? You can bring Bongo the Giraffe anywhere, even for a visit with your parole officer. He's cute, cuddly and completely inconspicuous! Just tilt back his adorable head and hit that bong for some sweet leaf relief!

Marijuana not included.
