Things that should not be

I just came from a store that had Pillow Pets for sale-- including the Dora the Explorer Pillow Pet. If you've seen Pillow Pets and you've taken a second or two to picture a human character in the exact same failed quadruped posture as the other Pillow Pets, then you know why I say Arrrrgh! I don't think I can call "uncanny valley" on a Dora product because the character's face is already a very simplified representation of a human face, but seeing it on Pillow Pet-shaped body gives me the same kind of creepy feeling as the CGI disasters more usually associated with the uncanny valley. Regular Dora dolls, prints, etc.? Cute! All the other Pillow Pets? Cute! A row of Pillow Pets with Dora Pet at the end? Cute, cute, cute, cute, NIGHTMARE FUEL!
