Politicaly incorrect MASCOT as art-hits Utterz

The above stuffed animal is Bessie, one of the former promotional products used by Utterz for quite sometime before going on the PC highroad.
I didn’t notice it myself (just saw the bugs in the upgrade http://www.utterz.com/…Nzk5Mjg3NA ) but @MariAdkins astutely noticed that our favorite cow has disappeared(http://www.utterz.com/…Nzk5Mjg4NQ ).
I’m going to miss the old girl myself. I’m going to miss all the great puns, and conversation starters we had at bessie’s expense and at the expense of political correctness in deference to our Bovine cousins of the world.
As a person born with and continuing to have 3 nipples, I’m even going to miss Bessie’s bravery in displaying her multiple teets to the world, proud of her body, proud of her mutli-teeted appearance.
Her teets may not have been terribly sexy, but they brought us all together, they got us talking, they made us friends as we gathered together suckling at ear buds, blue tooth headsets, web cams, cameras, video cameras, microphones, and keyboards.
Bessie may not have been politically correct, and she may have inspired us to be less than politically correct at times as well, but she did bring some humanity to this social network. She got us to drop our guard a bit and be a little more human and even humane to each other in our conversations.
Her jovial sensibility may have even kept things considerate and light hearted here and on the internet where so many gangs and flame wars often abound in other networks.
Now that she’s gone, the place isn’t going to be quite the same. For us old timers on Utterz, we’ll have the memory of Bessie, but for new comers to Utterz, this is going to seem a lot more sterile.
