Dogs in bee costumes
posted by jonson (46 comments total)

Honestly, too many dogs that aren't pugs, not enough dogs that are pugs. Otherwise, perfectly fine.

Better than a bear in a bee costume.

What a horrible website. What kind of a person tortures animals like that? I have reported this website to HSUS and I hope Matt deletes this post ASAP.

Why did this remind me of that Blind Melon song...

Sadly, no-one appears to have taken up the challenge of the logical (but technically more difficult) companion site. Will no enterprising apiarists make dogbees a reality?

What about dogs with bees in their mouths and when they bark they shoot bees at you?

Somebody needs to do a version of that Blind Melon song with barking dogs, like that Jingle Bells novelty track that comes around every year.

The "Premier online repository"?
Doesn't that sort of suggest that there's more than one? I had no idea that this was such a widespread practice...

Oh come on, Dormant Gorilla. Where have you been living, in a cave?

Would you believe me if I told you there were even more new beedogs?

*brain explodes*

A beedog bit my bottom -- now my bottom's big!

Sometimes, when I see a pointless political battle between a middle-of-the-road conservative and a middle-of-the-road liberal, or when an entire thread is taken up with references to other MeFi posts, I wonder why I even spent that five bucks. Honestly, every once in a while, I absolutely hate MetaFilter.

But then I go on for my morning visit, and I see something like beedogs, and it makes it all go away. Did you see Aster? C-U-T-E!!!!!

Wait, I thought that pugs are across between a dog and an insect. You sure these aren't just pictures taken before wing-removal surgery?
posted by squirrel at 9:40 AM on September 19, 2005

A cross, that is; not across.

Not surprisingly each photo features a dog with an expression on his/her face that says, "My human companion is a moron. Please help me."

I, Herman Hugelback III, inventor and patent-holder for the dog bee costume, wholeheartedly endorse this post. I look forward to rubbing more filthy, filthy money over my bloated personage as this site grows.

You just know that for someone out there, this is a dirty, dirty fetish site.

Sorry, you didn't make the cut.

This is even better than cats in sinks.

Still needs more pugs, though.

Everthing needs more pugs.

maryh, that honestly made me crack up. And then go revisit the site for erotic potential...

And squirrel, you are officially off the christmas list. To be replaced by mfbridges.

Thanks OP. I needed that.

...Where have you been, living in a cave?

Hey now. I'm in new york, the cave was the only thing I could afford. And I think you'll find we like to refer to it as a "negative fourth story floor-through with Original Moldings and Exposed Rock walls."

Seriously though- I'm terrified of bees but love dogs, so this is giving me some serious cognitive dissonance. When the dogs have their little caucus to determine whether or not to rise up and enslave humanity, this is going to be exhibit A.

When I think of dogs and bees in the same context, I always think of this quote:

Or what? You'll release the dogs? Or the bees? Or the dogs with bees in their mouth and when they bark they shoot bees at you?

Anybody check this out in the links section: Suger Bush Squirrel. Oh the humanity or should that be oh the Squirreldom. The Michael Jackson section is quite creepy and so is the bio of Sugar Bush's mom.
