You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog,
Gimpin’ all the time…
I think I saw that dude on the left suckin off an old dude in The Shining.
And yet this still isn’t all that weird when you consider that his daughter would eventually marry Michael Jackson.
I’m not sure I could really explain it, but I could hint elliptically about “yiffing”.
This is the kind of thing Grant Morrison sees every time he closes his eyes. Except he also hears dialogue:
“Farathoom! The Hound Dog of Tindalos!! Quick, L.V.S., our only chance is ideo-osmosis into the Gnostiverse! Set picobots to tekno/rubedo and prepare to permeate the pleromic membrane!”
At that point in his career, Elvis had enough money that he didn’t need to explain himself.
What’s even scarier is that “at this point in his career” was still B&W photography, but if you look at the photo, you can still tell that you could have used his suit as a low-light reflective safety jacket.
Oh, and, there’s some bozo in a giant dog suit.
Kiiiiiiiiiiiinnnng ….
CREEEOOOOOOOLLLEEE!
It’s actually the start of the bizarre dream sequence in which Elvis sings “Edge of Reality” from his 1968 movie Live A Little, Love A Little. Michele Carey was his very lovely co-star but the man in the dog suit is unknown.
His Great Dane actually appears as Albert in the movie. Brutus and Snoopy was given to him by Priscilla. He died shortly after her and Elvis divorced. Snoopy later became Priscilla’s favorite Great Dane.
Because ELVIS that’s why.
My mind just exploded. I’m on a ROM marathon and not even that was enough to prepare me for that.
Because Bob Kanigher, that’s why. Or maybe god was stoned.
…And to think at this point in his career, some said that Elvis had lost his edge.
“Hey, man, put another midget in the blender, man. Thangya vera mush…”

first thing that came to mind.
Boy howdy, the ’60’s were an odd time in our history!
The darkness drops again; but now I knowThat twenty centuries of stony sleepWere vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
I think that pretty much covers it.
This is the worst version of “The Wizard of Oz” I’ve ever seen.
Little-known fact: Guy in the dog suit? Ringo Starr.
Hey, I had this dream once. Pretty sure I woke up crying.
Yeah, he had to stick actual dogs, or in this case, actual men very creepily dressed up as dogs during his singing of Hound Dog to keep any suggestion that the person “crying all the time” was a woman being sexed.
LSD.
Did I ever tell you about the time I had a three way with Ann Margaret and the King? No, it’s alright. So long as you don’t look each other in the eye when you “arrive” it’s not ghee.
Ding dong.
Getter Rays.
That reminds me of one of the bosses in Castlevania: Legacy of Dakness.
Wow. Suddenly “Bubba Ho-Tep” is the least weird Elvis-related thing I have ever encountered . . .
I can explain it. Someone has been reading my mind!
Clearly, that girl can see the physical man-dog form of Elvis’s lust for her.

I’m trying to figure this one out, because I really don’t know. **Which one** of them specifically reminds you of a boss from Castlevania? They’re all pretty freaking scary.
Elvis never did no drugs.
This is why I never party with Furries.
I describe it as AWESOME with a side of ELVIS!
It’s not a real party unless someone is in fursuit.

You want me to wear what? Hey, a gig’s a gig.
That’s nice, but Queenie is still in trouble.
