MousePotatoMemberI am particularly fond of the line in that article that calls them the “legendary goat suckers” of Latin-American lore. Hehe…. You said “legendary goat suckers”….

miwsParticipantActually, come to think of it, I did see him in the West Seattle Grand Parade last year. But, I need to seek him out in a more face to face scenario, where people are hanging around with or near him for awhile, rather than him just cruising by in a car.

UnderaTreeMemberMy Chupy is named Chamey. He likes to sleep under a certain tree in the Arboretum at South Seattle Community College. He wants all ya’ll to come over to the Arbi and rock the trees tomorrow with the West Seattle Garden Tour. If you have a ticket you can get free wine and cheese and chocolate from 1PM to 2:30 in the Sensory Garden. Don’t miss the Arbie. Its the bomb.

Garden_nymphMemberTo update one of my favorite pro-choice bumper stickers, “If you can’t trust me with a choice, how can you trust me with a Chupacabra?!”

BlendParticipantso true..so true…they are serious business. You should have a license to have one and go through serious training. This is not to be taken lightly. In fact..I think we should arrange a march outside the Chupy clinic to get the word out. People are having Chupys way to young these days. I saw a 12 year old with a Chupy…she was talking on her cell phone about Hanna Montana and her Chupy was eating a bicycle tire. Sheesh!

Garden_nymphMemberI think we need to have a float in next year’s West Seattle parade. The WSC, West Seattle Chupacabras need to find a bored metal artist to immortalize our creatures on a float named, Where the Chuppies are, like Where the Wild Things are, because they gnash their terrible jaws, show their terrible claws and roll their terrible eyes… It would be A LOT of fun! It would also be great fun to get a Chupy version of the Walking on Logs statues! We could call it Clawing at Logs… What about making Chupy suits and giving out goat shaped candy!? Oh, the possibilities are endless!

JiggersMemberI’m tired of this blood sucking thread already lock it up.
July 24, 2010 at 11:28 pm #697648
Garden_nymphMemberGrumpy much?! Jiggers,why do you continue to read this thread then? With so much ugliness going on in the world, I have found this thread to bring much needed giggles to my day! Try to have a good one, go get a beer…
July 24, 2010 at 11:58 pm #697649
BlendParticipantgreat idea about the float garden nymph but my Chupy does like to eat metal..so not sure how that would go down. He is not here to ask him because currently he is at the Alki Art Fair selling earrings made out of driftwood. He’s so crafty!

JiggersMemberAlright..I was trying to be sarcastic so let it stop here.
July 25, 2010 at 12:50 am #697652
BlendParticipantif this thread dies..another will be created..I am guessing. The Chupys cannot and will not go away. They are here for good. We must embrace it. I tried denying it a long time ago..I would throw my Chupy out and he would come back. I would drive my Chupy all the way to Michigan and he would come back. I chained cement blocks on his ankles and dropped him off the Tacoma Bridge and he came back. This is also how I discovered he could eat through metal. Anyways, I gave up and now he is my best friend.

AlParticipantI was afraid for a while that it was MY Chupys that were causing so much smoke consternation. After all, they moved here from a state that was much friendlier to Chupacrabra’s smoking…heck, all the Chupys I met there smoked. They could be a little unnerving if the smokes ran low (lord forbid you meet a Chupy who is low on nicotine) but luckily the nearby Chupy-mart had a never-ending supply. I did realize though that my Chupy’s aren’t smoking under a window – but I do worry about the randomness of their Chupy orneriness being overheard by basically all the neighbors.
July 26, 2010 at 12:26 am #697654
BlendParticipantwell now that people have complained about them smoking they decided to smoke at an abandoned house by the south park bridge..and boy what a mess that was today.
July 26, 2010 at 2:34 am #697655
celeste17ParticipantIt was a Chuppy convention gone wrong. You know what happens when to many of them get together at once. They start smoking and drinking and eating metal.
Maybe we need to keep a closer eye on them. You know what happened at the street fair. I still don’t know where my chuppy got the money for some of his treasures.

UnderaTreeMemberMe and Chamy the ChuPoo came back on the ferry from a Island Wedding. My feetsies hurt from dancing and Chamy liked the Camel across the street from the San Juan Winery.
But leaving? What a disaster. A 7 hours delay! He was so cranky in line. Had to have coffee,sandwiches, French fries, ice cream,cookies and diet Pepsi (no Coke). Refused to eat all the nice veggies, applies and baninies I had so thoughtfully prepared for such emergencies. Would not touch the hummus.
Then, while waiting on line for hours because there was only ONE ferry, he started chomping on the other ferry riders fenders. There are chomp marks on the Ferry-Hyak too. All the peeps in the line went crazy and started honking their horns.
Oh, and then he went shopping for some used books and dresses! He said he got the money from an uncle! What? I am never gonna get to take him back to Friday Harbor. Not for a long time. Oh my.
He did suck up all the bubbles from the wedding. That was a good thing, because he amused the guests when he passed his bubbly gas!! In the end he gave me the dress he found at Second Chances. It fits like a dream. I just can’t be mad at him. I love him so.

celeste17ParticipantDoes anyone know if it is to late to enter my Chuppy into the race for Governor? Since you don’t need to be born here she can run can’t she? Can she be a write in candidate?
July 31, 2010 at 7:02 pm #697658
UnderaTreeMemberOh! I say, Chuppy for President.Legalize all metal chomping! Everyone knows it’s therapeutic for the teeth and gums! Hip Hip! She can borrow my new dress from Second Chances for her Television appearances.
August 2, 2010 at 12:01 am #697659
BlendParticipantI dunno about the race for governor but I entered mine in a triathlon race to get him into better shape.
August 2, 2010 at 3:44 am #697660
celeste17ParticipantMine is to lazy for a triathlon. Although if we litter the race way with metal maybe she would do it.

SueParticipantI think Chupys are becoming much more mainstream and accepted in West Seattle now. I was in Arts West over the weekend and was looking at the art, and one of the artists drew a chupacabra. My husband tried to correct me, saying that the sign said it’s a sheep, but I told him it’s just a coverup so as to not alarm those who have not warmed up to chupys yet.
I’m not sure (because the fog machine was going), but I think there was a chupy in one of the Side Show song/dance productions. I felt bad though for him to be categorized as a “freak” in a side show – they’re really misunderstood creatures, aren’t they?
