Sorry Grumpy Cat, but there's a new ornery animal icon in town and his name is Earl. Earl a.k.a. Grumpy Puppy is Tardar Sauce's grouchier canine counterpart with I'll-cut-you eyes and serious I've-seen-some-shit wrinkles. LOOK AT HIM! JUST LOOK AT HIM:
This puggle (pug/beagle mix) started his ascension to fame on a Reddit thread a month ago, and he's obviously already an ICON OF OUR TIME. An It Boy, Sad Boy, Spirit Animal, and dare I say... possibly even better than Grumpy Cat? (Or maybe I'm being bullied by my editor into saying these things:)
Either way, I love him, someone get Grumpy Puppy a holiday movie deal stat, and get on that Instagram stalking game here (he gets an automatic follow from me obvs).
