Seeing the "Oolong died this morning" pics brought back a flood of sadness. :(

I'm assuming that this kkoutlet.com site is not supposed to look like this but that's what it looks like in my browser, and therefore I have to assume that the webmaster is a complete moron.

WAAAAAAHHH OOLOOONG.
In about ten to fifteen years I'll be saying the same thing about Maru, some fat cat I never met who jumps in boxes. *shakes fist at internet*

I like tell-all books, and was very interested to read in Oolong's own words that he didn't in fact like stuff on his head. Ironic.

That picture of Oolong with the waffle on his head is photoshopped. I can tell by the pixels and by having seen quite a few shops in my time.

God, Oolong was great. Any mention of that stoic bunny brings a smile to my lips. And those pictures of the deceased Oolong are incredibly sad, especially the one with the bunny dolls arranged around it. It's like a grave.

I think I may have said this before (I seem to repeating myself more and more as I get older), but I love that the first comment in the classic Oolong thread is basically "Old, seen it already".

I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a picture of a bunny with a pancake on his head.

I got completely distracted by this date stamp/time/user combination.
Oolong was responsible for my own bunny's short foray into millinery. We eventually just made him hats out of toilet paper tubes that we could slip on over his ears.

Don't forget the Oolong posters!
Actually I think that an Oolong book may be one of the least weird items on that store. A lot of things that make cool Found Art exhibitions just seem bizarre as something you could own and put on your coffee table, or see in a library. For instance, 160 pages of missing person photos or 80 pages of fully clothed scenes from porn shoots.

I am going to buy this, and it will live on my shelf right next to my Maru book and my Tortoise and Hippo Friends Forever book, and my Pandas of the National Zoo with bonus Butterstick Rolling Down a Hill flipbook book.
Missing Oolong goes hand in hand with missing tiled hue-shifted jpeg-y background images. *moment of silence*

On your forum some people look like feeling just strange.

I think you are supposed to wear the paper glasses when viewing it.
