AGW – Stop Global Warming In 9 Easy Steps

Tuesday, 10 January 2012

  1. Get rid of your gas-guzzling internal combustion vehicle.
  2. Get a wheelbarrow, install a platform with seats and a roof.
  3. Hire a peasant to take you where you want to go.
  4. Take smug pride in your efforts to save the world from Global Warming and brag about it to your friends.
  5. Bitch to your friends about having to pay the peasant.
  6. Fire the peasant and sell the wheelbarrow.
  7. Buy a car and offer the peasant transportation for a small fee.
  8. You are now an entrepreneur. Enjoy.
  9. Get rid of your gas-guzzling internal combustion vehicle.

Just Get On The Bus, Gus

Thursday, 3 November 2011


I wanna be a bus
I wanna be a big bus
I wanna bus the world around
I wanna be the biggest bus that ever bused the world around.

And the riders on the bus go beep beep beep, at least they do here. Click on any pic to enlarge.

Holy Poop! We’re Four Years Old!

Thursday, 4 August 2011

Yes, you got that right. On 3 August 2007, Tacky Raccoons belched itself into the blogosphere with little fanfare and a mere handful of hoopla. Now it’s 10PM on the eve of this auspicious occasion, and I’m caught with my pants down and my skirt over my head trying to figure out what to do with only two hours to go, so let’s do this.

Yeah it’s fuzzy until you click on it and see that we’re over 906,000 sharp views, and most of those are prolly Chinese and Russkie bots, but we’re holding strong at about 20K per month despite school being in recession. I don’t know wtf happened in October 2009, but I’ll roll with it.

Oh wait. I know. Let’s have another rundown of the most popular posts for the last year, just like we’ve done for the past three years.

So here are the Top 11 of the past twelve months, with last year’s rankings separated by an appropriate slash. nr = no rating,  indicating that the post either didn’t make rank or wasn’t posted last year. Click on the images to see the original posts.

This year, we’re gonna start with No. 11 because it’s only been up for a short while, but got a wad of hits.

No. 11/nr- The .Gif Friday Post No. 185 – 80 Beetles

No. 10/nr – The .Gif Friday Post No. 145 – The End, Near Miss, Cat Attack

No. 9/nr -Pre-ChatRoulette FAIL

No. 8/5- Lesbian Amputee Dwarf Porn

No. 7/3 -Giant Woolly Bear Caterpillar Discovered Near Las Cruces, NM, Predicts Global Warming for Decades to Come

No. 6/nr -The .Gif Friday Post No. 93 – Cat Fish Robot Jam

No. 5/nr -The .Gif Friday Post No. 108 – Eat It, Walk It, Pump It

No. 4/nr -Death Row Barbie

No. 3/4 -LOL Ferret Episode 1

No. 2/2 -Amy’s Motivational Poster Collection

No. 1/nr – Capybara Lapwarmer

I gotta tell you, I’d never have guessed that Ms. Capylady would make the top ten, let alone make it to Number One on the 2011 Tacky Raccoons Hit Parade.

I’ve traded a couple of emails with Ms. C since this was first posted, and I congratulate her on her meteoric rise to the coveted position on the TR Top Ten.

And that’s exactly what makes blogging fun.  In four years, I still don’t know what’s gonna get a hit. I just toss out whatever amuses me, and I’m happy that some of it amuses you, too.

Milking the Toad

Tuesday, 1 March 2011

Questions arise occasionally on where we find topics for Tacky Raccoons. This particular post resulted from a long lost .gif animation that we found behind the Rec Room couch with the cat stuff:

A  quick google search for toad lickers brought us to the Wikipuddle that mentioned The Church of the Toad of Light that in turn linked to another article that had a photo with a link entitled “Milking the Toad” that displayed this nice pen and ink sketch:

See how easy it is? Just follow your gut instincts, and you too can put up a unique and mildly disturbing post that is guaranteed to bring your blog traffic from specious sources especially when you link to this one. Now go milk them toads!
