As buckets of silvery coins spill out of his machine, this adorable fellow can “bearly” believe his good fortune. But with lady luck on his side and a pile of money at his feet, it looks like this betting bear is a big winner!

I don’t want to live in a world where people buy things like this.
Goodbye.
I am grinding my teeth and really want to hurt the bear.
I’m pretty sure that there’s a companion piece: “Slots of Despair.” The subitle: “Some Bears Have No Luck.” An elderly, white-haired bear, with a blank almost zombie-like expression, shovels “silvery” coins one after another into the one-armed bandit. She has faced that machine, “bearly” alive, for three days, always wearing her free slot club viser and glove. It’s her “lucky” machine, so she can’t leave even though she’s spent all her vacation money and has had to cash her social security check. Maybe she can sell her car…
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY EVERBODY!!!
How precious! I’ll take a dozen…
jenny: ew.
AHAHAHAHA!
.. I keep looking for ways to capture the essence of the evil in words. .. What a difficult task.
So, gambling is cute, cushy, plush, worthy of idolization in porcelain.. wow.
The poor little bear. Soft fur forever trapped in a porcelain stare, waiting eternally in that moment where something that might happen might not.. .. this is romantic? This is an idol! This little totem to gambling is a stinking idol. That’s what it is.
(I’m still laughing)
