We have three dogs that love to chew stuff up so we're always gettin' them some toys and stuffed animals and stuff so they can destroy them.
And usually whatever we get is shred to pieces within a couple of days.
And one day I noticed that this stuffed animal that we had gotten, they had had it for about a week, had remained relatively unharmed, a little bit dirty, but it really didn't have any damage.
So I was kind of watchin' them for the next couple of days, and I noticed that for some weird reason, this little stuffed animal seemed like they all liked it for some weird reason, it was special to them, not only did they not chew it up, they sort of made it seem like it was their baby.
They treated as though it was their own baby, so I thought, "this is weird." How strange this is.
Of all the toys and things that we get for them, for some weird reason, this one, it wasn't really any different from the rest, this one is picked to be special.
So there you go..
So some time passed and one day I noticed that this box of "big plastic insects," that I had been keeping on a shelf in the bathroom, had some how fallen down and unfortunately it looked as though the dogs had already chewed up most of the stuff in it, the big giant spiders, ants, and cockroaches and stuff that were in it.
And as I walked around the house picking up the shredded pieces of these plastic insects I cam across the...
baby...
you know, their stuffed animal baby! And there it was just torn to shreds, like everything else - all the other stuff, finally this one was torn to shreds.
So later on I came across one of the giant grasshoppers that for some reason hadn't been chewed up at all, not even as much as a small tooth mark.
So I watch..
and it occurs to me..
that for some reason their affections have changed..
and I can plainly see that, instead of the stuffed animal, the big ol' bug is the new baby...
now.
the big ol' bug is the new baby now
the big ol' bug is the new baby now
The Flaming Lips came from Oklahoma City, emerging in 1983 with their strange sound almost fully formed. Since then, the Flaming Lips have come under the almost singular leadership of singer Wayne Coyne and done magical things with alternative rock. In the early 1990s they made a commercial splash with "She Don't Use Jelly," showing the world their madcap pretzelling of pop music - a tumultuous tangle of guitars, bristling melodies, and oddball lyrics. Since then, The Soft Bulletin attempted a 90s version of Pet Sounds and largely succeeded, becoming one of the most acclaimed albums of the decade in its last few months. Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (2002) was widely praised too, and eventually became a gold-seller: their biggest commercial success, two decades and 10 albums after they started. The Lips are also famous for their live performances, which often feature giant plastic balls, furry animal suits, hand puppets, videos, light-shows and truckloads of confetti.
