Help! I'm Trapped In My Eskimo Fur Suit What!

There's such a thing as an Inuit fur costume. Can something be so utterly ridiculous that it passes over being racist and enters a post-race realm of universally agreed-upon absurdity? If so, this guy trapped in an Inuit fur suit has done his part to Solve Racism:

I give up on the internet. (Via Brad O'Farrell.)

Is the ticking intentional or coincidental? Either way it takes the creep factor of this up a solid notch.

Furries + femskins + obscure ethnic anime look = nightmares for years.

Throat singing is pretty damned weird, but it's still better than guy trapped in fur suit.

I think this is maybe the most horrible thing I have seen on Videogum, and that is saying something.

The ticking, the face touching, and I stupidly went to read the comments on the video, so so horrible.

If it weren't for Box Cat and Tan Hong Ming, I'm pretty sure this would put me off the Internets forever.

So, he called it an "Inuit suit," Inuit being a more correct term for the particular group of people. You, Lindsay, called it an "Eskimo suit," which is not correct and perhaps a little racist. However, his suit is obviously a rather unflattering caricature, so I'm not sure who is being more racist here.

(Not that it matters, actually, since this video is just fucked up)

That clicking sound in the video is the sound of a 1000 videogum viewers souls weeping.

I think being TRAPPED in the suit is like a THING for furries.

I kind of wish I understood but am glad I don't.
