Welcome to the event you have all been waiting for! No, it’s not the Super Bowl, although I have heard that it might be happening sometime soon.* Yes, it’s the Giant Panda Zoo Awards, with your hosts, Babette de Panda, and the actual creator of the Giant Panda Zoo Awards, Jeroen Jacobs. I warned him that I draw pandas much better than I draw people, so if he looks like maybe he might be a panda, I apologize in advance.
Unlike the real world where pandas don’t get much opportunity to socialize with one another, in the world of panda satire and panda stories, pandas really get around a lot. I know, I know, we anthropomorphize pandas and all our pets as well, but heck… why not? Why shouldn’t pandas get to travel and attend award ceremonies? Don’t answer that.
Meanwhile, on with the awards ceremony!
Huzzah!
Introducing Princess Dumpling
We apologize to anyone who is offended by gratuitous panda butt depictions…oh wait…no we don’t.
* Actually, we do know that the Super Bowl is being played today. We even know who is playing!
Be the Bear!
Bob T. Panda
I hope this doesn’t cause deep emotional scars…..
I’m sure Pinky will be okay. Her ego is quite well intact.
I’m with the “I’m outta here” crew. No want stands between Pinky and her award. (And we all know they are hers.)
I know! What were they thinking awarding panda personality gold to someone who is not Pinky? I mean, who has more personality than Pinky???? I can kind of see that she got aced out by the triplets (um…more on that Wednesday) but no one has more personality than Pinky. Except maybe Babette, and she is “on the lam.”
Nothing is cuter than baby panda butts, gratuitous or not.
Nothing! Huzzah for baby panda butts!
*Sniff*…but my mommy loves me. She let me sit on her lap today and even let me nurse, which is better, even, than a cuppycake! So who cares what the silly contest results are?
MX: and I do love you my little princess. Now, do you understand why you should call your mother and NOT 911 when you are unhappy with how the awards were given?
Pinky is the only PRINCESS. I’m sure there have been cheating in the votes. I don’t want to suspect anyone …
Moreover, Bob T., I love the award figurine, reminds me .. something dejà vu..
Princess Pinky, in a recent phone call said,”i am shocked, shocked i tell you, to discover dere was cheating in this award! I mean…um…other than my ‘attempts’ to make sure voting was done ‘correctly’. Nobudy outsmarts pinky! I was gonna poof, but mommee took my magical wand away from me.”
Happy to see Babette back.
I love Pinky’s WHAT??? face!!
And Princess Dumpling is adorable – but not as adorable as Princess Pinky!
Babette was only there for a few minutes. She was trying to stay ahead of the law, what with all those paintings disappearing just right around the time she did.
It was good of her to break cover to present awards!
Fortunately, she managed to elude the authorities, and slip out the back door, before she was caught.
