Well, even though it happens to be about 40 degrees today, on this lovely Dre Day, poopy things can still happen to us. That’s right, rabbittos. You can still drop your computer on the way out of the taxi and curse your damn butterfingers and your unsuspecting and unfriendly cab driver. Oh yes. You can still burn the roof of your mouth on the wrong kind of tea you just paid five dollars for. And you can still get unreliable wireless at a coffee shop next to a fancy pants hotel. But never fear, because if these things have happened to you, or to, let’s say, me, we can still rejoice in one of the miracles of the intranetz: funny blogs about dogs.
That’s right, kids. Puppies: the surefire way to make any sub-par day just a little bit better. And I’m not talking about the stalwart standbys like I Has a Hot Dog
or Fail Dogs-
I’m talking about two new tumblr blogs that rock my self loathing faux-hipster socks. Don’t ask me what that last phrase means, because I sure as shit don’t know. I’m on my third coffee of the day and I’ve only been awake for like 4 hours. Plus, I don’t drink coffee. Anyways, let’s cut to the chase here. First of all let’s talk about Kate Moss. Not that Kate Moss, the other one. She’s huge in Japan. Literally. She’s got her own bobble heads and everything. Here’s a little bit about Kate Moss.
She’s a middle aged Chihuahua living in Manhattan. She has one ear, a sometimes-prickly attitude and one hell of a cute face. But not some twinkie Pomeranian face, (see below)
I’m talking cunty, queeny cute. The kind that can’t be bred or taught. The kind that lives deep down inside her tiny soul. She’s the sworn enemy of My Little Ponies everywhere. She’s a global celebrity and a total riot. Check out her blog here at www.mossblog.tumblr.com.
Moving right along, Let’s talk about hipsterpuppies.tumblr.com – this is my new favorite way to pass the time. As if I weren’t already mesmerized by dogs in funny hats or even my own dog with a giant beret slung over her dumbo ears- this is the mother load of silly canines and anthropomorphic hipster-hating/loving banter to describe them. It’s all in good fun. I like to go to the site, peruse the pups in hoodies and ironic glasses, read the sometimes-brilliant captions and imagine what people I know could pass for these dogs. It’s pretty fun. You should probably try it. You might even find yourself in there. And just in case you’re feeling lazy, here are a few choice gems from the site so you don’t have to drag yourself over there.
Get involved. Incidentally, I’ll be submitting a picture of my dog next week, in the hopes that some of you out there will look at her devil may care attitude and bulging eyes, and think of me. Extra points if the powers that be at hipsterpuppies come up with a description that applies to me too. Look out!! Happy Thursday, kiddlets!
