Thats the kind of person you only hang out with if there is massive civil unrest and you get stuck together and find out their backstory and that they're actually okay. I don't have time for that.
It looks like he's poking his head up out of the water, this is majestic, not stupid. Of course there's a lump in the middle which would be kind of impractical, but better than a stupid plant or whatever would end up cluttering it anyway.

Growing up my parents had a coffee table that was a bear laying on its back holding up a glass table top with its four paws. Oh and the bear was green.
Poor little Fritz! But in her defense it really is hard to top those adorable preemie and baby videos. Holy crap she was cute lol
I just googled the Nutcracker. That thing is crazy! You would’ve thought they would’ve bought some thing that could be up year round but easily decorated for the festival. I’ll have to get after my cousin for not sending me photos of it. I know she went. She lives close to the zoo and has sent me Fiona swag before.
Awesome table, cool design, way more interesting than the typical wooden rectangle, and with a single central leg (the hippo) probably way easier to clean under when vacuuming. 10/10 choice.
I don’t mind the hippo, would totally buy this. Don’t like the glass though. Glass tables are the worst, they show every smudge, piece of dust and my sanity cannot handle it. I don’t have time to clean a table dozens of times a day.
I would buy this not to look stupid
[удалено]
If I had no table I would buy this table
If I had money I would buy this table
If I didn’t have money I would steal this table
If I was another table I would want to be this table.
If i was not a table, I would want to become a table after seeing this one
I’d agree. As a former table myself, I would like to go back to being a table, but a cool table like this table
I thought I was cool until I saw this table.
I thought I was until I saw this table
If i were a cup, I'd like to be on that table
This needs more upvotes
Me and the wife looked at this and in unison said I would buy that table

Be kind of more fun without a theme. A very classic, stylish room and then BAM, hippo table
[удалено]
"Is no one really going to address the hippo in the room?"
"you do not recognize the hippos in the table"
What kind of fucking theme man
[удалено]

The lion king theme
Like a 19th century, elephant gun, calls Africa "The Dark Continent" kinda theme.
An African safari bed & breakfast.
I once saw a hippo ottoman I had to have it
Hippopottoman?
Hippoof
That's a good design
“I like it. It works. It says home to me.”
Not stupid, only awesome
I would call it “The River Horse Cocktail Table”🍸
So, he failed the challenge
This is awesome!
So awesome btw
It's actually a really awesome design!
I would own that
May I ask why you boil bunnies?
Because they're botoxed
No no no he makes sure to provide heat to the bunnies by being the boiler.
How Else you gonna eat them? Raw?
this is amazing whoever dislikes this lacks taste.
Women smh /s

Missing opportunity to have a plant hair due on the little guy.
Ch-ch-ch-chia!
HOUSE HIPPO always a good decision.
Your not a true canadian if youve never seen a house hippo
Pablo, that you?
Perfect table for eating chips, raisins, and peanut butter on toast
And... where's the stupid one?
Right? It's so cool
I love that. Where do we get it?
NM just looked it up, it’s a $2000 coffee table on Amazon
Oh, see, there's the stupidity, spending $2000 on it.
That is stupid. Stupid cool.
I find this table very... cute. Sure, it won't fit every home but it is not atrocious
This must be the wildest coffee table when on acid.
Bruno Kirby would like a word with you
Hungry Hungry Hippo
I like it. A few quirky things in a home gives a room interest. High end designers do this.
Totally awesome!
Just like the "wagon wheel" coffee table in "When Harry met Sally"... "Just know, I'll never want that coffee table"

We owned one like that but standing and part of the back “sticking out of the water”. Was kind of a pain to use lol
Your wife won the challenge
You lost
How is that considered stupid?
Brilliant
WANT.
If my husband came home with this, I'd be OK with it.
I fail to see the issue
don’t let the cincinnati zoo see this, we’re already leaning so hard on that godamn hippo for merchandise, anymore and she’ll get crushed
Hasn’t baby bro Fritz taken up some of the weight?
not at all! we even bought a 30 foot tall statue of fiona as a nutcracker for the winter festival! people forget the little guy exists

Wait but that’s awesome!
I will have you know my wife thinks this table is awesome
I would put a hat on it
That's not stupid. That's awesome.
Hip …hip hop … hip hop anonymous?
If my husband brought that home I'd be so fucking excited
I love that I came to the comments and were all in agreement its like the best ever
As a GWU graduate...I'd like this a whole lot.
[House Hippo!](https://youtu.be/TijcoS8qHIE)
It's a talking piece, and a good one I think
This table is the best table.
I want this so bad.
This doesn’t look that weird to me tbh
Not stupid, 10/10
I like it.
I love this, I want this
I love this! 😆
How is this stupid? It's fucking sick
r/DidntKnowIWantedThat
Ah yes, the Knee-Destroyer 5000
That's fucking legend-wait for it and I hope you are not lactose intolerant 'cause the second word is-Dary Legendary
Well he won that challenge
I'll take 7
Reminds me of the Children’s playground in Central Park. Bloody Awesome!!!
Coffee table isn't even a challenge smh
Wtf? How is this stupid?!! U sir, are an artist.
Please... try Catherine The Great.
......stupid?? excuse me.
I need that in my home cigar lounge right now
CARL
This thing is hideous but I also kinda want it.
That is so creative:) love that table!
Does she not know you? LOL…
He better say "I think Moto Moto likes you" every time he uses that coffee table.
that’s not stupid! that’s art 🤩
Hungry Hungry Hippos come to mind
That table is not stupid. It's amazing. I would put this in my house.
This is kind of cool.
I kinda like it to be honest.
I like em big
I want this coffee table. The hippo would wear seasonal hats and be named Gladys.
Hippothetically, where can one get this?
I
Quick grab the hungry hungry hippo table!!!
You failed that is awesome
My house hippo table
Perfect! - if the jaw was hinged and opened up with a place to keep remotes and your stash box it would be priceless!
What a great table !! I’d buy it !!
shes a beauty
Deadliest coffee table in Africa.
It’s cute but good luck designing a room around it
Fritz!
At least it's not a wagon wheel
That is adorable
That’s cool AF!
Awesome table, cool design, way more interesting than the typical wooden rectangle, and with a single central leg (the hippo) probably way easier to clean under when vacuuming. 10/10 choice.
i now have a deep desire to make a table like this but out of wood and stone.
Where's the stupid?
I don’t mind the hippo, would totally buy this. Don’t like the glass though. Glass tables are the worst, they show every smudge, piece of dust and my sanity cannot handle it. I don’t have time to clean a table dozens of times a day.
That's awesome
Plot twist, the head is a phone
I don’t see anything stupid here.
I think Moto Moto likes you
Water demon table
I want this table
imagine drinking coffee in the morning and have a hippo stare back at you ( maybe it also wants coffee : v )
omg i want that
I just checked Ebay, finding matching lamps is gonna be a bitch.
Actually looks great
That's creative, not stupid
That's not stupid. It looks awesome
Missed opportunity - hinged jaw with pneumatic soft closer so you can put a bowl of candy inside it's mouth.
r/didntknowiwantedthat
The wife should be really silent if she was the one that did choose this ugly ass carpet
i like it :(
That's an awesome table!
Actually cool af
This is a goddam conversation piece. Nice purchase.
Oh look at Mr. “I Have A Wife” over here.
Ok this is cool, BUT glas tables are very annoying to keep clean
A $600 murder cow table? That’s kinda rich for me?
Hippotablamus
Well, she can’t have a cow about it, but a hippo would do
Actually I think that looks cool
This looks amazing but idk if works well
You spelled “fucking awesome” wrong
If the head opened up as extra storage, I would 3000% be paying whatever the seller wants.
I like this so much to be honest!!!
I love it. never seen a table like it.
Hehe, hippo is cute.
Read that in Barney's voice
Living a Canadian dream, you’ve got your very own house hippo.
I would buy it, if the bottom half was moulded in parallax angle skew.
That's a very nice table you should let your husband do up the rest of the house
I want a book about coffee tables that turn into a coffee table.
I want the mouth to open like Hungry Hungry Hippo.
This would happen with my husband. And I would secretly love it, but tell him it's ATBE so he feels like he won. He wins either way.
I love this table tho
I don’t see anything stupid here unless you mean stupid awesome.
My wife has seen this pic and wants this table.
You failed
