It’s a toy.

I once had to remove the head of a My Little Pony (bought specially from eBay). It was quite weird.

You should feel bad! It's the first step on the ladder to becoming a serial killer, I'm pretty sure.

IamAporcupine · 16/11/2017 23:02

I think I know it is a toy beepboopbeep Wink

thanks Dahlietta feel better now! Grin

I am worried it'll come back and haunt me...

I had to once pull the stuffing out the inside of a teddy to get 3lbs of cocaine across the border

Dahlietta · 16/11/2017 23:03

You're welcome Grin. (Poor wee bastard)

IamAporcupine · 16/11/2017 23:04

Have to say that I picked one that I didn't like much, I really could not do it to a nice one!

Imagine how happy and hopeful that poor teddy felt when you bought him and took him home: the dream of being loved again and cherished. Imagine his fear when you brought out the scissors...

The teddy has done its primary job, it now needs to diversify. No such thing as a job for life now.

You monster! Have you never seen Toy Story! Grin

Can you maybe extract through one of its feet? Slightly less perturbing...

I have some fur fabric you could have, it is yellow.
Save a teddy.

Mountainpika · 16/11/2017 23:09

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
What a terrible, appalling thing to do.
I've had to move my little teddy so he can't see the screen. If he read this thread, he'd have the most awful nightmares.

Just DON'T, DON'T go down to the woods when the Teddy Bears are having their picnic.

You'd never come out in one piece.

IamAporcupine · 16/11/2017 23:09

thanks elephantoverthehill that should be my motto

What a chilling thread Shock

Mountainpika · 16/11/2017 23:10

Yes, SAVE THE TEDDY!

IamAporcupine · 16/11/2017 23:11

Sorry to tell you TyneTeas but I need the 'skin' not the insides....

elephantoverthehill · 16/11/2017 23:13

Save a teddy? Do you have children? Past the age of 10 only one maybe five soft toys shall remain in bedrooms. I still have my teddy. Your teddy went to a Charity Shop for a whole new lease of life. Quite frankly it was bored of sitting on a shelf and wants to become a ?

IamAporcupine · 16/11/2017 23:15

well, this teddy in fact will turn into a LION!

so...is that a bit better?

CherryChasingDotMuncher · 16/11/2017 23:20

Just hope it isn’t glaring over you by your bed when you wake up, planning on ripping your guts out in revenge Wink
