Just saw an article saying early man probably ate Pandas, as they found midget panda's bones with wounds probably inflicted by human weapons, perhaps rather than just eating them, it was presumably normal to wear panda fur. Given that the successful captive breeding program probably already produces more pandas than the we can practically return to the wild, on account of unrelated human activity restricting the habitat, I imagine it won't be long till we could consider making a helpful side line of Ugg-style Panda boots for aiding the funding of pandas, once we have a stable captive bred population. I would be happy to wear domesticated Panda fur boots, as opposed to domesticated cow boots, on account of tradition and warmth, no doubt at extortionately expensive prices for the betterment of bio diversity.-- PainOCommonSense, Oct 15 2012 Simpsons- Homer in Panda suit (Japanese version) http://vimeo.com/22907966 [xandram, Oct 15 2012] It's not exactly a new idea to make boots or shoes from any kind of animal hide or fur. I'm sure they've all been used at one time or another. I'm really interested in the *bread population*...I see bread people.-- xandram, Oct 15 2012 oops (will fix) and record context for future public embarrassment.
{ I imagine it won't be long till we could consider making a helpful side line of Ugg-style Panda boots for aiding the funding of panda's once we have a stable captive bread population. }-- PainOCommonSense, Oct 15 2012 Based on the first sentence of the idea description, this is Known To Exist anthough perhaps not Widely.
We suggest therefore that the idea can be criticised for failing to incorporate a genuine innovation.-- 8th of 7, Oct 15 2012 Fair point. lets call this [baked] by my own admission, before I get wrestlers attacking me. (WWF)-- PainOCommonSense, Oct 15 2012 Mmmmmm, baked panda, mmmm-- 8th of 7, Oct 15 2012 Panda: the new cow.-- FlyingToaster, Oct 15 2012 I can't find any clips to link to, but the Simpsons did it. Krusty the clown puts on a panda fur coat and panda-cub fur slippers in one episode.-- DIYMatt, Oct 15 2012 [DIY] Are you sure it was Krusty? It reminds me of the Montgomery Burns musical number "See my vest" ("Two Dozen and One Greyhounds" #6.20), although I don't think it mentions Panda.
Of course at this point Simpsons has probably done every possible joke about six times, so there might have been another.-- MechE, Oct 15 2012 Definitely Krusty. Lisa throws some red paint on him (PETA) and he trades out his stained mink coat for a panda coat and slippers.-- DIYMatt, Oct 15 2012 //funding of panda's once// Ouch!
Apart from that, I'll duck out of this one, I think.-- TomP, Oct 15 2012 These would be the perfect compliment to my new badger jacket.-- Alterother, Oct 15 2012 TomP "Panda's once" has now been fixed.
