Bears: Lazy Hitchhikers Who Love Garbage

by Brian Alterman on Dec.14, 2011, under News

In “news” from Vancouver, a typical bear (lazy, shiftless) hitched a ride on a garbage truck putting the bear in danger as the truck then drove through Hastings. The bear was shot with a tranquilizer gun and is planned to be put back in the wild (it is assumed he will warn other bears to stay away from the city). Said the bear via Twitter:

“I’d like to thank that guy for catching me when I fell down off the truck,” said a tweet from @downtown_bear. “Bears don’t bounce that well, y’know?”

They don’t bounce well, but I once skipped a bear four times off a lake.

Don’t bounce well you say? I would like to test this for purely scientific reasons (I assure you I will take no pleasure in it). Please bring 25 bears to the roof, Iwill be up shortly…

These are childish delusions, but bears are fundamenta-l to the current situation.
