blobby

Also known as water bears and moss piglets, tardigrades sport blobby physiques, lumbering gaits and perfectly circular mouths stuck in the middle of their otherwise-featureless faces.

Most important of all, there's no way to hear 1993’s Christmas number one: Mr Blobby by Mr Blobby.

A mystery artist is being sought by police in Dartford after postboxes were spray-painted to look like Mr Blobby and a Cadbury's Creme Egg.

But on 19 February his child sent him a photo to show that it had been "painted pink with yellow spots like Mr Blobby".

"Although the Mr Blobby paint job did make me laugh at first, I think it just makes the area look rough."
