Smile! You’re on Pandid Camera

Come on Bubba…won’t you give us a little smile? didn’t you know we were…um…watching you?

What's that blinking red light over there?

What’s that blinking red light over there?

As any of you who happen to be younger siblings know very well, that it is the time honored tradition, (or is that privilege?) for older siblings to torment younger siblings. Now, I was not watching pandas when Tai Shan was a mere cub, but I don’t think he would have put his little sister through the same things that Pinky has put Bubba through. That’s just my opinion and I have nothing to back this up. He did send her….ahem…some very nice presents.

We might say that as the middle child, Pinky has worked hard to distinguish herself. One could wish that she didn’t appear quite so gleeful when she gets Bubba all wound up. But what fun would that be?

Be the Bear!

      MX: Oh please, no! Let her get elected president first. We want her to have a career before she settles down and raises a family. Wait…what am I saying? Oh dear…I think I need to lie down or have a bootini or both.

        Pinky is very focused on her political aspirations at the moment, so I don’t know that she has even thought about boys yet.

    I am in my early 40s, and my brother is in his mid 30s. Guess what his ringtone is on my phone? That’s right, “If I Only Had a Brain,” from the Wizard of Oz. An older sister never, *ever* outgrows this kind of fun!

    I loved Pinky’s big evil grin when she announced “Especially those!” At least Mei has the comfort of knowing that one day, Pinky will most likely raise at least one cub just like her.

    BTW, I was watching Tai Shan when he was a cub, and I’m pretty sure he’d have had some fun with his younger siblings.

      I’m glad to hear you are still tormenting your younger brother. Were MY brother to do this it would be *VERY VERY* bad! Very bad. Word to the wise.

      It is probably high time Mei starts pointing out to Pinky that what comes around goes around. It was probably good that Tai had enough years to mature before Pinky came along. There were those times when the Meihems ganged up on her. Of course, she kind of deserved it.

      I think maybe we should shield poor Bubba from THOSE kind of panda videos a bit longer. He is still a baby. I certainly hope Pinky doesn’t show any of these to him.

      He is indeed. I think he is somewhat put off balance by Pinky. Big surprise, there, huh? Bit yes, he has nothing to worry about.

    To be fair to Pinky she is always Sweet as Fruitsicles to Bubba! He just gets a wee bit emotional with things! Pinky has so much on her mind, Busted Cutemeter, Bridgegate, Twins. So if she is a little gleeful it’s all the stress put on a Panda for Prezydent! Love that girl.

      Pinky told me it’s not her fault if Bubba over-reacts to everything. She did say this as she was running out the door as a very angry Mei came in, carrying a crying bubba. So I would take what she says with a big grain of salt.

      Maybe we spoiled her when she was a baby.
