The YouTube title for this vid is "A private hamster elevator made of Lego." Have cuter words ever been spoken? This little guy Dopey is trying to get to the second floor of his hammie condo and the Lego elevator is promising, if a bit unreliable. Will he make it? There's only one way to find out . . .
Thanks, Beaner!
Watching people do lines of cocaine is not cute at all. (Hey, I watched Celebrity Rehab, I'll admit it.) But watching a chubby little hamster do a fat line of sunflower seeds? That is super-freaking cute!
A few months ago, Japanese scientists unveiled genetically modified "mutant mice" who had lost their innate fear of cats. Usually, they freak out when they see one; these mellow mice, however, just tip their hats and say "How do you do?" In an old Japanese news video of Jerry on Tom love (featuring what looks like a hamster), there was just talk in the background. We thought it needed a romantic soundtrack. . .
His Majesty Wiglet Fuzzletuft (yes, that's really his name — Karstein for short) gets off to a slow start with this string cheese, but once he hits his stride, it just disappears into his mouth like a noodle. I've had two revelations while watching this video. Revelation # 1: The smaller the animal, the bigger its name needs to be for maximum ridiculousness. Revelation # 2: With hamster vids, it's all about the music.
This Supersonic ham — Mr. Fahrenheit, if you will, — is persistence personified. He wants to get through that door, dammit, and nothing will stop him. Nothing.
When deciding between piano practice or pigging out on popcorn, this hammie goes with his gut — and there's no stopping him. We should introduce this little guy to baby Mocha. They'd make great snack pals. Mocha's awfully persuasive with the broccoli, which might do this junk-food junkie some good!
When this gal's got the munchies, watch out! All self-control goes out the window and girlfriend stops at nothing to get her nibble on. The question is: just how much of this buffet can those chubby cheeks pack away? You might be surprised. (Shout out to Mr. Rogers for the jams!)
