Interesting that there was no food aggression at all. I kept expecting Teddy to take a nip of her hand. posted by Johnny Wallflower at 10:36 AM on December 30, 2014 [1 favorite]
That is dedication to your corn cob. posted by arcticseal at 10:37 AM on December 30, 2014
Teddy clearly has not learned the Christmas Lesson (hint: it is not "get the hell away from my corn cob!" Well, maybe that's the porcupine Christmas lesson).
Bonus -- I love his incisors, which I like to imagine are stained red with the blood of corn cob thieves. posted by GenjiandProust at 10:54 AM on December 30, 2014 [3 favorites]

I don't know, man, I think it's better when he has a cookie instead. posted by Katemonkey at 2:10 PM on December 30, 2014 [1 favorite]
Those adorable little sounds are the porcupette version of "Mine!! Back off, I'm tryn'a eat here! Hey, hands off those too. WTF you lookin' at??"
That woman just will not stop tormenting the poor animal. It's kind of frustrating to watch. posted by Greg_Ace at 2:20 PM on December 30, 2014 [3 favorites]
Sweetcorn must pretty much be crack for porcupines. Evolved to live off string tree bark, the massive sugar rush must be like caffeinated pixie sticks to a four year old. posted by scruss at 5:00 PM on December 30, 2014 [1 favorite]

Teddy is so adorable. We went to dinner on Christmas and the crab bisque soup was so delicious I had to keep myself under control or I'd sound just like Teddy with his corn or cookies. I'm on his side forever - he's my foodie friend. posted by aryma at 9:00 PM on December 30, 2014 [4 favorites]
¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
