So I'm sitting moping around then dryope posts a picture for me, and my mood shoots up by 100%

Tine found some wonderful pics at the JJB here. See the one of Chris and his braces? That's the one Tine posted so I scrolled down the flist and there he was. EEP!

I love my friends who indulge my thing for the braces.

There's some seriously cracked out pics there *g*

ETA: I went to the site these pics came from here and it's in German ( I think ) I'm intrigued by these.

I need to know what on earth they're doing sitting on giant phallic objects, apart from making me laugh and fueling my dirty mind ;) Tine, anyone who reads German, can you help me out?

ETA2: It's a tigerduck apparently. A much loved character to German children, which is why no comments about Chris and Lance riding the tigerducks will be written here. Because that's just wrong!

Hee! Those are awesome!!!

What's up with the really phallic things they are sitting on in some of those pics?

[turps33.livejournal.com]

They're wonderful!

Do you mean these ones?

I have to admit that's the first thing I thought when I saw them. Chris and Lance are sitting on a giant stripy penis. Of course I'm a pervert ;)

[autumnyte.livejournal.com]

Yes! Giant stripey penises...with wheels! The side shot of the one with Lance and JC is really hilarious.

I have such a sick mind.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I know! I had to post it in my LJ because I'm laughing every time I think of it. I'm burning with curiosity about why they're sitting on them. I think the idea of anything for publicity went too far that day. But I'm glad it did because they're some of the best pictures ever!

I like people with sick minds.

[dryope.livejournal.com]

It is a tigerduck! *sighs exasperatedly*
Honestly, have you not-Germans never heard of tigerducks before.




OMG, they do look like giant striped penises. Whatever is German Tv for children coming to.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

Ihave!!! it used to be one of my favorite things ever. I wanted one so bad, so I could drag it around with me...

[dryope.livejournal.com]

Thank heavens for you.
Of yourse you wanted one, tigerduck should at least be as popular as Harry Potter if the world was fair.
And the books are even more adorable than the cartoons.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

there are books? *dies*
we only had the cartoons. god, I need to get one of those books next time I go to germany!!!

[dryope.livejournal.com]

Yes, Janosch wrote the books.
The most popular one is "Oh wie schoen ist Panama", in which the little tiger and the bear decide to move to Panama. They actually have a minor argument about, whether it was sensible to take the tigerduck with them.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

oh dear lord. now I desperatly need to go to germany!!!

[lazydwarf.livejournal.com]

Oh my word, those pictures. Luff them so. And Chris! with the braces! and the tongue! Luff luff luff!!

(I'm probably using up my exclamation point allocation for this week in this one post)

Wheee, I needed those to start my morning. Thanks for posting the link, sweetie!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I know!

I love that shot so much! I'm over using the exclamation marks too, but Chris with braces!! one of my favourite things ever!

Ilovehimsomuch!

You're more than welcome, all I'm doing is passing on the link from dryope :)

Btw, did you get my comment asking if you'd changed your e-mail?

[lazydwarf.livejournal.com]

I did, and I'm a dork and haven't replied. I haven't changed email, but that account is probably thinking it's full all the time, cause it's really close to it. I'm using lazydwarf @ gmail.com too now, so try that one if you need to. It's the one tied to the lj address now too, so either one should work.

Chris! braces! I need a Chris with braces icon. Yep yep.

Ok, back to work with thought of Chrissopher bouncing through my brain.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

No worries.

I'll resend your e-card if you don't mind having one late *g*

Everyone should have a Chris with braces icon!

anyone who reads German, can you help me out?

Well, according to the site NSync were shooting an episode of the kids show "Tigerenten-Club" (that would be the tigerduck club ;-). Apparently they had a lot of fun ;-).

Thanks for the link to the site, very cute and fun pictures *g*.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

The tigerduck club! This gets better and better!

Thank you.

[dryope.livejournal.com]

First off I am absurdly pleased that you seem to have a blast with dork!sync.

Secondly, phallic objects? Will you please think of children, woman.
Phallic objects. *shakes head*
That's a tigerduck, as is really plain to see for everyone. ;)

It is the most beloved toy of the little (and slightly infantile) tiger, who is best friends with the bear and the frog.
He drags the duck around everywhere he goes, even when he decides to go to Panama, because Panama smells of bananas.
They are the heroes of German kids tv (and I might have all of them as stuffed animals).

Apparently the pics are from "Tigerenten Tv", a show where two teams of kids (the tigers and the frogs) have to compete in different skill tests and quizzes.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

LOL. I'm having a wonderful time with the pics. dork!sync are fantastic.

A tigerduck, I see. I love the pics even more now I know the story behind it.

I'll say nothing about Lance and Chris mounting the tigerduck because that's just wrong, and yes, we must think of the children!

I need an icon of tigerduck now.

[dryope.livejournal.com]

I'll say nothing about Lance and Chris mounting the tigerduck

This seems to be the right time to mention the tigerduck rodeos, we like to indulge in, too.



And an overjoyed yesyesyes for tigerduck icons. Spread the joy around lj.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

ROTFLMAO!

That's just perfect! I love it!

I honestly can't believe there's tigerduck rodeos, this is going to keep me amused for a long time.

Everyone needs to know about tigerduck!

[jaciesplace.livejournal.com]

Kind of makes you wonder if they ever put their foot (feet?) down and said, "NO! There is no way we're doing that!" or if there were ever outfits they refused to wear. At least we have a plethora of wonderful pictures to keep us all amused.

Yes, I'm still laughing. Thanks for sharing the links. :)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I wonder that too. Then again when you see the stuff they did wear there really can't be much that's worse. Some of their outfits have been horrendous.

I'm still laughing too :)

[ephemera.livejournal.com]

we are so predictable :) - you're all about the braces and I'm looking at that self same photo going 'but his hair! eee!' - they really look like the faux dreads we've done for J and Matt in the past, only I don;t think they *had* the insane styling products that that required in 199widget, so I'm trying to work out how they did it - they're way too sleek to be real dreads, and there's no bands .... and he looks amazing and I luff him. All of them, but extra luff for him.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Predictable is good, especially if it gets you good links like that ;) His hair is gorgeous then. As much as I love the braids and the spikes, I think it's the dreads I like the most. If you find out make sure to let us know how it's done.

He's so beautiful with his crinkly nose. I'm in full on fangirl mode and loving it :D

[bk117.livejournal.com]

The Tigerducks (funny name actually) are called Tigerenten and it's from the Tigerenten Club. It's a childrens' programme on I believe ARD (one of Germany's many many tv channels). They recieve many many guests and they're always entering on those wooden things.
The pic with the Tigerenten rodeo is probably taken during the episodes, as they always do games and stuff.
Since I'm Dutch, and capable of receiving the channel with the Tigerenten club, I'm offering to tape it once for anyone interested, just for the fun to see.
The official website for the Tigerenten Club is: http://www.daserste.de/checkeins/tigerentenclub/default.asp
Mind you, it's all in German.
Take care!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Thanks for all the info.

I'll tell people about your offer, I know there was a lot of interest in the programme.

Thank you again.

ahahahahah. jc's touching its butt and lance is riding it!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I know!

The inappropriate remarks that I feel compelled to make are many *g*
