___alope

In Eastern Idaho, you see a lot of 'lopes' around, mounted on peoples' walls or in their dens.

Antelope are by far the most popular, but a close second?

The Jackalope.

Yes, part jackrabbit, part antelope, this critter can be found in tourist shops and homes of the elderly almost everywhere in Idaho.  I have never seen one alive, but I have seen my fair share of stuffed Jackalopes being shown proudly by their owners.

Another odd 'lope' of the internet persuasion is:



Pickleope.  He happens to be part antelope, part gherkin.  More rare than the Jackelope (since he's one of a kind) and slightly more briny, these two got me thinking... What other kind of 'lopes' are out there?  And if they're not, what should we put a pair of antlers on and make a lope of our own?


For example, there are thousands of lolcats on the internet already.  Why not make an antlered version?

Lolcatalope?  Lolalope?  Help me think of a good name....  trashcatalope?


And if we do cats, why not dogs as well?  This fantastic corgilope also comes with the additional OMGWTFLAZORZ upgrade.

Beware when he shoops da whoop.


Snakealope?  Or are they scary enough without the antlers?  Fangs and horns seems a little bit much... Even Darwin would go "nope, no no no... too much of an advantage..."

And, of course, why should we be limited to limited things?  Why not put some antlers on inanimate objects?


....I have no idea how this would actually work, function-wise... but maybe it just sits on a coffee table as a conversation starter?

"Hey Esther, that's an interesting dongalope you have there..."

What do you think?  If you could stick antlers on something, what would you pick, and what would you call it??

  1. If you put the antlers a bit lower on the vibrator it could be a taint tickler (well, an anus tickler, but that's not as alliterative) or handlebars.
    As an obvious lover of adding antlers to anything, I truly loved this post. Lope 'em all and let God sort em out!
    I'm surprised you didn't make yourself a Brandonlope.
    And thank you for the shout-out.

  2. Oh My God. I just spit my coke all over the floor laughing. Dongalope. I know, real mature. I love it though, especially as a coffee table conversation starter. Much better than a snooty coffee table book with arty pictures. Guaranteed to keep the inlaws away.

  11. I'd buy a dongalope just to see how my wife's parents would react when they find it.

  12. LOL! Wow! That thing is intimidating! I'm guessing that you wouldn't sell too many of those. Call it the Stickalope or the Prickalope.

  13. Antlers are deadly, so they belong on nothing. They aren't aesthetically pleasing. I don't know, I haven't really thought about them, but I am not sure I like them very much.
