THINKGEEEEEEEEEEEEK!! Curse You!

The above was done in my best Capt. Kirk yell.

AURGH!!!  I fell for it.

The folks at ThinkGeek have a new product…it’s called “My First Bacon”

Here’s some of their description:

You’ve got a friend in meat

(and he talks and says “I’m Bacon!”)

My First Bacon(tm) is a ThinkGeek exclusive plush toy that will delight your little ones. Even if they’re not on solid foods yet, your progeny shouldn’t be deprived of the joys of bacon. Soft and snuggly with big giant eyes, My First Bacon(tm) is both friendly and reliable, just like actual bacon.

Squeeze him and he says, “I’m Bacon!”. No matter what the situation, he says, “I’m Bacon!”

So here I am, all excited, and I click on buy and what do I see…

APRIL FOOLS!!!

AURGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

But then…it dawned on me…the Tauntaun sleeping bag first started as a cruel April Fool’s joke but then a massive nerd uprising forced ThinkGeek to actually make the product.  If we can get a Tauntaun sleeping bag then damn it we can get them to make “My First Bacon“.

So join my campaign won’t you? Let’s BOMBARD Customer Service with request and maybe, just maybe, next year we’ll all have “My Little Bacons” for our little ones to enjoy.
