Hey, check it out — for once, Mrs Bugg is not playing the part of the ship’s figurehead! I’m guessing she called dibs on the beard.

That’s a pretty sweet beard Mr Bugg is rocking there.

Up until the last couple minutes, it was a great film.

Also, that is one scary beard Mrs Bugg is rocking.

all that is blue is not woad

On the other hand, we know how much the Buggs like Scotbugg and tartan, so let’s run with it.

only missing the parrot this time

However, an acceptable alternative to the parrot, the lovely red frock coat, is an excellent substitution. Throw a tricorn hat in there, and you are golden.

an excellent choice

When presented with no good options, always choose something that involves (a) weaponry; (b) wooden legs; (c) parrots; and/or (d) great big bushy beards.

A combination of all four of those? SUPERIOR.

And why not? It’s basically awesome, am I right?

JUST LIKE THE BUGGS.

THE BEARD, YOU GUYS.

I mean, yes, Mrs Bugg as some sort of amphibian is awesome, but MR BUGG’S BEARD I CANNOT EVEN.

“outfit ideas”?

Tighty-whities dyed red, with a sassy red cape, do not constitute an “outfit”.

Also, they grossly underestimated the number of piercings on the Perbugg king — although they seem to have nailed the freakish height.

Great abs, though.

we somehow did not have a “beard” tag

I’ve corrected that oversight, you will be thrilled to hear.

Also, that is exactly the sort of whackass, arbitrary shit about which I shall pass laws when I am Supreme Empress of Absolutely Everything.

Beard tax. BRILLIANT!

So I’m just going to fall over dead here, ok? Mr Bugg’s Darwin with his GREAT BIG BUSHY BEARD plus Mrs Bugg’s thumbs-up figurehead is KILLING ME FROM THE CUTE.

all the buggworths, or just that one?

Oh man. Mr and Mrs Bugg, impressively bearded and overalled, holding hands and looking sad. Simultaneously heartbreaking and adorable.

(Also: I have a soft spot in my heart for Woolworth’s. It was the only place open when my friend Mimi and I got lost driving back to Germany from France on a day the shops weren’t open late. I bought tights because goddammit, I was going to fucking shop and the fact that we arrived too late for the good shops wasn’t going to deter me. That was a really good day.)
