In light of Metafilter Elephant Day, I hereby submit this excellent elephant-oriented Orwell essay. posted by psmith at 5:32 PM on October 8, 2006

I admit it: I laughed when I thought the elephant had hit the ground and died. posted by Citizen Premier at 6:03 PM on October 8, 2006
Wow! Those are nice animations. I'm particularly fond of the caveman one. posted by Greg Nog at 6:04 PM on October 8, 2006
Anybody remebers that French cartoon animation taking place in Paris? It was a love story, the music score was a song by Piaf. I think it was posted on Mefi. posted by NewBornHippy at 6:07 PM on October 8, 2006
hushyourface and think about the elephant.

NewBornHippy - it's called A Quoi Ca Sert L'amour, and it's linked in the FPP above, under the words "link to" posted by jonson at 6:27 PM on October 8, 2006
oh right, you actually wanted to know what that was! I thought you were being snarky. posted by 6am at 6:31 PM on October 8, 2006
Yeah, I know *embarassed laughter*... Thank you.
I'm going through one of "these" and I really needed to watch this (weird to feel like you're sixteen again.) posted by NewBornHippy at 6:44 PM on October 8, 2006

Or just be patient with the mad shit, since she'll be coming back to you. posted by 6am at 7:00 PM on October 8, 2006
Oh, no mad shit yet -- just, you know, don't eat, sleep, work or think. You see that person for a couple hours that last like 2 seconds, and when you part away, 20, no 10, minutes later the separation becomes unbearable. It will be violent and will burn me to the ground -- as usual, I just thought it'd never happen to me again.
OK, we're officially derailling now and we're turning this elephant post into a teenadvise thread. posted by NewBornHippy at 7:27 PM on October 8, 2006 [1 favorite has favorites]
Lovely. (But did anyone notice that only one of the elephant's feet makes a noise?)
Good luck with the luuuurve, NewBornHippy! posted by taz at 12:06 AM on October 9, 2006

Please, please, for those of you old enough, where are all the elephant jokes?
"Why do elephants have flat feet? From jumping out of trees to stamp out flaming ducks."
But I can't remember why ducks flame. posted by rotoman at 12:02 PM on October 9, 2006
