In the blurst of times, I can do a pretty good Teddy impression, warning others off my delicious foods/corn. Right now, with a chest cold, I can't not do a bitchin' Teddy impression, even just by inhaling. However, Teddy's not as much a gourdifile as some big cats I could mention.

This shit is ridiculous. His pumpkin eating is all over the place. Pick a spot, Teddy!

I just learned that porcupines and beavers have orange teeth. It's not because of the pumpkin.

I like the part near 0:52 where he tells the cameralady in no uncertain terms that his pumpkin is not to be touched.

As do coypus (nutria).

I took the other path toward the Youtube black hole of baby skunk videos.

Those sounds teddy is making, I remember my ten year old self wandering in our tiny apple orchard one dark October night and being terrified by the sounds coming from several different trees. There'd black bears in the orchard before but not being able to find or identify the source of the sounds made it scarier than bears.

Of course not. Porcupine teeth are stained with the blood of their victims! Mostly "people who tried to take away the damn food, so it's a bit hard to feel too bad, in this case.

Honestly, as I the only one who, before watching, expecting that Teddy was going to hump that pumpkin?

The noises are sort of cute, but to my ear he is saying, "Fuck off, I'm eating.".

It was damn cruel of Nature to make an animal so cute yet so completely unhuggable.

My husband walked by while I was watching this. "What is that? Ewoks?"

OK, I totally needed this to cut through my obsessive refreshing of all data Sandy-related. Thank you.

GET AWAY FROM MY PUMPKIN!!

I just had one of those one of those crazy "wait, unicorns aren't real?" moments.

At the age of 23, I just realized that hedgehogs and porcupines are totally different species. Wow. Mind blown.

Also, porcupines sound like ewoks.

A few years ago, I was spending a week alone in a very remote cabin in southwestern New York State. Late one night, things were dark and still, when I awoke to a deafening crunching sound. Something was gnawing on the wood frame of the structure, and the sound was transmitted throughout the entire building. At the time I knew nothing of the local fauna so I responded by jumping out of bed, screaming and pounding on things as loudly as I could, hoping to scare the unknown beast away.

It stopped chewing, but then it began making sounds like this thing. Trust me. At 2 am, in the dark, alone in the woods, those mutterings are NOT CUTE. They are terrifying.

I HAZ AN ORANGE PUMPKIN.

It was the best of times,
It was the blurst of times,
It was the season of mini-Heath Bars,
It was the season of candy corn,

I saw the pokiest porcupines of my generation destroyed by madness,

I have eaten
the pumpkin
that was on
the ground

and which
you were probably
saving
for pie

Non, je ne regrette rien.
