Why not a Keebler® elf? I’m totally in support of the short kings of the world, but he seems a little too full of himself. And he sings songs about wiping his ass, no thank you. I know what you’re thinking, why the Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea® bear? Why not the Charmin Ultra Soft bear? And to that I’d say, do I look like a fucking homewrecker to you? He has a wife and kids, asshole. That light blue nightgown and red sleep cap lights a fire in your soul. You used to think men were trash, but you realize that the Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea® bear would never treat you the way that Brad from Sigma Apple Pie did. “Hey, babe.” He lights a fire, puts some smooth jazz on, and tosses your coat into the washing machine without mentioning the bird shit.

When you finally reach your apartment, he’s there, waiting for you.

Jeremy from HR’s emotional support parakeet Sheryl Crow pooped on your shoulder right as you were about to leave, and you had to sit through the entire train ride home with bird shit on your shoulder.

There’s just something about the beautiful blend of delicate chamomile, cool spearmint, and fresh lemongrass that makes me horny as hell.

But when I’m finally in bed, all I can think about is getting dicked down by the pajama-wearing bear on the box. When I’m stressed out and feeling on edge, I reach for Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea® to help me get to bed. Given the chance, I would make him feel seen and heard. However, over the years, I couldn’t help but notice that someone has gone underappreciated, undervalued: the Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea® bear. I think we can agree that after a long day, nothing beats the calming, relaxing taste of Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea®.
