Mr. Tiny Shiny

Sorry, guys! The sinus infection really got to me last night - I just had to hit the sack! 

Anyway, as promised here and at GW, the piccies of Mr. Tiny Shiny, aka the pervy Teddy Graham. It feels a bit odd to be posting these, honestly. Like some pornographic photo shoot. But then I remember that it's a little chocolate teddy bear who is supposed to be edible. Take a look at these pictures, though - edible doesn't come to mind!!!

WARNING!! A teddy graham with inappropriate pieces that clearly label him as a little boy is beneath the cut. Do not click if you do not wish to see!



I mean the bare necessities!
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life! 
In his tiny, shiny underpants. Ace was the only place that afforded the proper lighting, along with a measured amount of sunlight - in a moving car, I might add - is what made this shot possible. The underpants are made from the wrapper he came in and tape from Terri's desk. ^^ 
This is how he'll be traveling in his little envelope back to the factory with the letter I'll be writing. Mostly, it's a case of curiosity; all the older adults want me to do it, and I figure I'm curious enough.

WARNING! Naked boy bear complete with parts below!! 















When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a look at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few!
Yep. Ah ha. I wasn't lyin'! There it... he... is. Pretty messed up, huh? Can you imagine if a little kid got this? I mean, as funny as it is, it's so wrong! 
I'm not sure what tone I'll take in the letter. Outrage is inappropriate, considering how amused I am. Maybe... reprimanding? Concerned? See, I know that these things are made by machines, which means that more than likely, it was done by mistake, but still. And there's always the chance that it wasn't a mistake.

Anyway, there's Mr. Tiny Shiny. He'll be heading on a journey back to where he was born on Monday in some sort of protective box with these two pictures (in case he breaks ;_;) and the letter.

Is the whole box of them flawed?

No, it was just a little individual package, and he was the only one. Which I was particularly glad for, because the reason I got the grahams was so I could eat them! I couldn't eat that!

Are you really going to write a letter about him? He probably just got stuck to another and his butt melted on to him. Although, that begs the question of what these Teddy Grahams were up to in that package... ;)

ROFL! XD Unfortunately, my response is too... too for me to even say aloud! ;)

Yeah, I'm gonna write 'em. Just because when you do, you often times get lots of cool coupons! :D We wrote Peppridge Farm about a moldy bag of Goldfish we got, and they sent back an apology with coupons for buy one, get two/three/four free! We had lots of Goldfish for a while! LOL

Yeah, but a Teddy Graham that has a bit of another Teddy Graham stuck to him isn't really the same as a moldy product!

I would eat that bear's chocolaty anatomy!

You would? You're the first person I've run into that would! I was going to, but then it just seemed... I dunno... wrong somehow. Plus I wanted to show and tell. XD

Like I said, though, I'm not going to put any outrage in the letter, and I've decided to just stay on the humorous side. Because I don't feel that any corrective action should be taken, and I feel nothing but amusement about the situation, anyway. The idea to send him back in the first place wasn't mine, but I got the suggestion several times, after their initial gasps and laughter, so I figure why not? Just to see their reaction, if any. Which would be a letter back and possibly some sort of coupon at the very most. It's just a company - my sister is acting like it's tantamount to a lawsuit! "OMG! You CAN'T tell them!!" Companies love feedback; not many people stop to tell them anything. ;)

Yeah that's not right. I don't think they're going to do anything about it but still you just don't DO things like that. If it was a mistake that's understandable but how in the world would you explain that to a child? *head hits desk*

[identity profile] patriot-jackie.livejournal.com 2008-04-12 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I imagine the most they'll do would be to send an apology letter and probably a "have a box on us!" coupon or something. Because I'm actually sending the real bear back, along with piccies, so it's not a prank, and companies value their customers - especially ones with feedback. ;)

If they don't send anything back, then I'll be severely irritated. In that case, it'll be that I should have posted him on Ebay! XD ;)

Bwahahahahaha!! Sorry, that is just too funny! Looks like a little extra dough got...uh...stuck! Wonder what he was thinking as he was being created? Maybe he has an anatomically correct girlfriend waiting back at the factory for him. **snerk**

I couldn't eat it..oh heck..him either. I'm not sure I could send him back though. He is, hopefully, one of a kind. They probably only get letters of complaint so you might brighten someone's day by sending it in. He might even get a place of honor in a display case. **gigglesnort**

Hope you get a least a coupon for making them laugh.

LOL! Hey! :D

I dunno if I actually have time to write a letter, now that I think about it. I think it'd be fun, but I don't have time for fics as it is, and I'm only mildly curious! lol If I don't, I at least had a blast with him as it is! XD

That would be hilarious if they had a hall of fame for disfigured bears, though!

I love you. Seriously, I do.

XD Good to know!

Maybe I should just print off this post and send it as my letter. Lazy me! XD
