Jul 24 2009Sleepover Time!: Imperial Walker Bunk Bed

Some guy went and built his son an AT-AT themed bunk bed. And by themed I mean it's actually an AT-AT. It almost makes me wish I had had a custom bunk bed growing up. But sleeping in the garage clutching a gas can builds character, right? THEN WHY AM I STILL ONLY A LEVEL 2 BLOGGER?!

I just shed a tear that's so AWESOME.

I didn't know bloggers had levels. Do they level up? How many levels are there?

@2
Matt Foley had enough room for you in there?
7. meowmo - July 24, 2009 10:13 AM
hasn't anyone warned you of Nutmeg GW?
8. Edge - July 24, 2009 10:17 AM
it looks like he gave the AT-AT some... "equipment" down below.
my question is, WHY?
9. samwich - July 24, 2009 10:19 AM
why does vader have a purple saber.

Father of the year!

I was parked beside Matt Foley...

Aww, there there. We can't all have parents that love us enough to build us AT-ATs and let us beat on them with lightsabers.
And hey there lil guy, level 2 bloggers don't get cited by CNN now do they?
That makes you at *most* a level 1 1/2.... Step it up so you're picked up by a *reputable* news source. Geeze. Some of us have standards.
13. Lost - July 24, 2009 10:34 AM
That doesn't even compare to my mothership bed.

Awesome! And totally reminded me of my sister building my neice's loft bed and other furniture for her themed room. (Sorry boys, it was horses). It was fun though!!

The dad goes to all the trouble of building a custom AT-AT bunk bed for the kid, but can't get him a red light saber to go with his Vader costume... interesting...

16. ginORMAGANTUAN - July 24, 2009 10:44 AM
it's like a chinese version of an AT-AT
17. Daisy - July 24, 2009 10:45 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max let his friend jerry in on a secret. Zip codes are meaningless.
18. Timbo - July 24, 2009 10:45 AM
AND he can't even get a matching blanket?!? Transformer blankets with a star wars bed??
19. /Eyeroll - July 24, 2009 10:49 AM
Hm... All I can think about when I see this is how the AT-ATs fell apart... the legs busted off and the entire body crushed whatever was underneath.... Looks like Daddy is tryin to get rid of little Bobby...
20. Pew³ - July 24, 2009 10:50 AM
I would totally want to sleep on the bottom.
Then I would take a grapling hook and some explosives, auto winch my way to the Imperial walkers belly, slice a panel open with my BLUE lightsaber, throw the detonators into the panel, release my grapling hook and....hopefully by then fall asleep. I'm sleepy.
21. Birr Crinton - July 24, 2009 10:51 AM
so basically top bunk officially rules. and bottom bunk is getting walked all over by atat.
and that's clearly a purp dildon, not a purp saber.
22. Pew³ - July 24, 2009 10:53 AM
BREAKING NEWS;
This is not an Imerial Walker bunk bed, this is a Transformers Decepticon bunk bed disguised as an AT-AT!
Decepticons are sneaky but have a hard time hiding their emblems when transforming into bed sheets.

Way to go Daddy-O, make the rest of us parents look bad :P
24. Pat - July 24, 2009 11:00 AM
GW has to defeat other bloggers in armed combat in order to gain treasure and levels. Perez Hilton is obviously Smaug of the blogosphere.
25. Freddy K - July 24, 2009 11:32 AM
GW you are a level two blogger because you chose to mulitclass in dino-lover.
26. Bethy - July 24, 2009 11:39 AM
I would hook up with a dude in that bed...no lie
27. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - July 24, 2009 11:45 AM
@26
That's my bed. What position's your favorite?
28. Bethy - July 24, 2009 11:55 AM
@ Gordon, I like it missionary in my butt. Because I have a penis. But you can stick it in my penis too cause you're small enough. I hope.

27 - I should've known you were gay... that goatee is just a cover for your goatse...
30. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - July 24, 2009 12:01 PM
@29
Don't worry. I'll come back for you later.
31. Boo Koo - July 24, 2009 12:29 PM
What is this? An AT-AT for ants? It has to be atleast.....3 times bigger than this!
32. STOMPY - July 24, 2009 12:47 PM
@28
I said what what in the butt.
33. Boost - July 24, 2009 12:53 PM
Yea, 99% sure the kid doesn't give 2 ****s about Star Wars.
It's his Dad trying to relive his childhood fantasy.
Pretty sure.
34. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - July 24, 2009 12:55 PM
@32
Hiding today?
Does anyone know where naas is? Seems like he's been gone all week.
35. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - July 24, 2009 1:01 PM
30 - You must be mistaken, I am (quite obviously) not a girl you "come back for", I'm the girl you better catch the first time around. =P
36. GoGo VicMorrow - July 24, 2009 1:22 PM
@9

37. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - July 24, 2009 2:36 PM
@35

38. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - July 24, 2009 2:37 PM

This dad wins the award for creative ways to keep their child abstinent.
41. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - July 24, 2009 3:44 PM
37 - Okay, I'll cut you a break.
42. fetus_mcnuggets - July 24, 2009 9:51 PM
If yoda talked dirty to this vindictive negro what would he say ???

Size matters not, ... Look at me. Judge me by size, do you?

43. Jaded Icon - July 25, 2009 12:46 PM
