OK, OK, the weirdness continues today...

OK, People, weirdness is OFF THE SCALES today. Behold a gaggle of color-coded Peeps riding multi-colored horses.

Even stranger is the text accompanying the submission: "These little guys deserve fun too."

Um. OK. [shifty eyes in disbelief]

Peeps

Katy M., unique. Very unique.

This is Cute overload isn't it. I don't think this is cute.

Word to the wise... don't let your kids microwave peeps (I'm still scrubbing the mess out) or you'll get a science experiment gone terribly wrong.

Are they the four peepsmen of the apocalypse?

Someone.
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:37 AM

I know that Peeps come in those colors...but the horsies? It's totally photoshopped! :P

these peeps are pulling on the reins really hard, which is which is hard on the horses' mouths. how irresponsible of CO to show such negligent equitation!

anner
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:39 AM

At least they colour coordinated. Actually i think it is kinda funny.

Come on now....peeps are OF COURSE cute. I love the reins in the beaks.

oh, and of course i mean the marshmallow peeps in the pic...not "teh peeps".

The Four Peepsman. Wonder where they're going.

Hie!
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:43 AM

very cute. Nicely done.

Annie
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:44 AM

Hmmm.....I am remembering an email I got few years ago called "Lord of the Peeps"....here it is:

http://www.lordofthepeeps.com/lotp/images.html

I don't have to time to flip through it to see if it's the same thing....I dunno, but these guys would be PERFECT for the horsemen that follow Frodo. :)

DKN
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:45 AM

they are cuter than the pine cone turkey...

chanpon
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:46 AM

Looks like the workings of the COTH folks... ;)

ExRacer
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:47 AM

odd...is there a site called odd overload? They would be perfect for that.

Carrie
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:51 AM

I actually think this is uber cute and unexpected...

I kind of want to play with them and make them go on a bunch of crazy adventures, the last of which will involve defeating the giant evil chocolate bunny and saving Easter Land!

...that's...probably just...me....though

Nienna

Now I feel like making smores with my girl scouts

If we're gonna do peeps--you can't forget the classic Lord of the Peeps

The Four Peeps of the Apocalypse:
Sticky
Stale
Fattening
Sugar Coma

And I just want to know--who the F conveniently has four color-coded pastel horses?

Redzilla
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:55 AM

oops. looks like DKN beat me to it!

layla42
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:56 AM

Layla42, haha, great minds think alike. :)

DKN
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 08:56 AM

i think it's kind of awesome! you mallrats are familiar with the Chick-fil-A. here we see the much rarer Chick-fil-LY. ride on, peeps, ride on.

cheryl
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:13 AM

RedZ -- OMG this is SOOOOOOOOO Photoshopped. NOBODY has pastel horsies!

No no NO! You're WRONG sojus'shuttup! NOBODY does!!!

Theo
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:14 AM

LOVE IT. LOVE IT. LOVE IT.

Nienna...like the scenario. But the Evil Chocolate Bunny is armed with black jellybean bombs...what defenses will the Peeps have?

Oh, and FYI, there are sugar free Peeps out this year (I know, why bother)...take my advice and avoid at all costs.

Suzanne
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:14 AM

I LOVE it! With a slightly different angle on them I would make this my bkgrnd for Easter. (For a few days at least - cant go without my new Pirates poster for too long)

I've seen those horses before... The four Peepsmen - luff it.

Shannon
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:14 AM

OMG! LOL! Peeps crack me up anyway, but Peeps on color-coordinated horses is way, way too funny!

Robbie
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:20 AM

This is very visually appealing to me. Love the colors!

The trouble with peeps is that they're cute enough to eat... but they don't taste all that great.

Courtney
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:21 AM

@ redzilla & shannon:
clearly they would correctly be referred to as "the four HORSEPEEPS of the apocalypse"
read your bible (or listen to aphrodite's child) before posting!

magnus
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:28 AM

The Evil chocolate bunny cannot be Evil. Nothing chocolate can be Evil.

Theresa
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:30 AM

magnus: How about the four horsepeeps of the apocapleeps?

AliceTanzer
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:33 AM

this opens up a whole new way of thinking about peeps. i wonder if they have matching houses and wee booties too.. :) ur a genious!

mizzkitti
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:35 AM

Redz -- nice call.

My first thought was "the Four Horsepeeps of the Apocalypse."

Boofus McGoofus
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:36 AM

I just wanna know where you found PURPLE Peeps! I want them.... NOW!!!! (um, sorry for shouting)...

Totally Cute!

RJ
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:38 AM

Weird works for me when combined with cute.

NeoCleo
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:38 AM

Um, where are the *real* animals? I need some actual cuteness today.

Jen
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:41 AM

Theresa ~ valid point on the Evil Chocolate Bunny. BUT the Choco Bun could be the "dark" side of the Easter Force.

Suzanne
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:42 AM

the front two have taken some bite damage!

scarth
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:44 AM

"the pink one looks like it's looking at the camera saying "word up."

Comedy. Gold.

Straw
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:45 AM

Oh my. This one had me LOL! Too much!

Eastie
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:47 AM

I like the way they're riding with the reins in their mouths--like John Wayne as Rooster Cogburn in True Grit. True Peep, perhaps.

Gracie
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 09:51 AM

I always knew that free-range Peeps were better for you than the regular kind. I can see the box now "These Peeps eat only pesticide free organic feed, they receive no drugs or growth hormones, and each is given a color-coordinated poneh to live life to the fullest before you bite their little heads off."

Theresa, I would have to disagree on the "no chocolate could be evil" thing...all chocolate is evil....just ask my rear end. LOL...however this is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. I am glad someone found something to do w/ the Peeps rather than eating them....Naaastteeee (singsong) :)

I love the trend towards peep-art. My fave diorama of hundreds of peeps acting out Palm Sunday seems to have been taken off Flickr.

Ponygirl

Best Easter centerpiece EVAR! Peeps are so gross, yet so fascinating...

Alexis
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 10:02 AM

who gnawed the wing off blue peep?

Jojo
 |  Mar 27, 2007 at 10:03 AM

Peeps aren't just for food anymore. I'd been playing with them for years as a kid. Finally, the trend grows!... but don't put one in the microwave and call it cute. They turn into Sumo Peeps... and then deflate.
