@LittleBlackFly: Dang! I was digging on the total randomness of it there for the first 50 seconds -- only to be brought crashing to the ground by the fact that it was, in fact, a Message.

There was a baby pygmy hippo here in the Edinburgh Zoo a couple years ago. It wus teh kutist.

She was so shiny and round and cute! You just wanted to SQUEEZE HER. She was my son's most favoritist animal to see - and see it we did - regularly.

I still bore anyone who will listen about it whenever we are there "And there are the pygmy hippos...Oh you should have SEEN the baby a couple years ago..."

It was unusual for me, but looking at this vid I am sure you can all understand my love for that cute little beh beh!

Seriously, you guys, you've never heard this song? It's the best Christmas -- oops, I mean *holiday* -- song on fucking EARTH! "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas."

And I agree. Can I have one for Hanukkah?

Ha! She actually looks a lot like my rescued Shar-Pei. It's pretty hilarious to watch this while he's on the couch snoring. His long lost cousin!

Dear Santa:

I would like to rescind the request for a pony. Instead, please send me a baby pygmy hippo.

Sincerely,

my cousin is an ape

OH. MY. GOD. I am literally about to cry. This is too much.

I'm such a bad person. Hate human babies, LOVE animal babies.

@citrus_buddha: You're not a bad person - I hate human babies too. I'd be so much more inclined to give birth to a little fuzzy wuzzy puppy than a gross screaming baby.

I've officially added Monifah to my Christmas list. Please Santa--I've been a good girl this year. I promise!

@Boogaloo2: It's Monifa if you wants the Hippo Babies, Monifah if you wants this:

Both are understandable, but make sure you ask for the right one!

@lizzzz: Okay I don't know why it's not working (maybe because it's NSFW) but it's the video for "Touch It". Good song, but not quite the same effect as baby hippo on Christmas morning.

@Dodai: But that's so much less funny than the other thing! Perhaps I shall name my next daughter Monifah, since it will have a positive meaning to 99% of the world and I will find it secretly hilarious. Perhaps not.

OMG LOVE HIM! She's so adorable in the bath, shaking her little ears! The zookeepers are so disciplined - I wouldn't be able to control myself and keep from cuddling and kissing her!

Awww, she's named after a briefly famous, raunchy R&B singer.

Do you really want to touch it?
Do you really want to mess with me tonight?
If you know how I like would you call my name
and give it to me right?

Switch the lyrics:

Do you really want to nom-nom me?
Do you really want to snuggle me tonight?
If you know how I like it
Gather some hay and feed it to me right!

@ULookinAtMyJunk is the Hate Mitigator: I was trying SO HARD to do that, but somehow I just couldn't translate "I'm gonna show your body what your tongue's doin' wrong" into anything hippo-friendly". Bravo!
