Peeps have used their mind-numbing cuteness to take over the Internet with over 200 Web sites, as well as Peeps-diorama photo contests from major media outlets like The Seattle Times and The Washington Post. They have been the best-selling non-chocolate Easter candy for a decade, and the amount of Peeps that will be eaten this year, if lined up, would circle the globe.
Behold the chameleon-like, transcendent power of Peeps. They make Meryl Streep look like an amateur.

Easy Rider Peep
He's one badass mutha-peeper. The cigarette may be slightly oversized, but hey, he's never been one to conform to society's rules.

What's more fun than playing Dungeons and Dragons? Playing Dungeons and Dragons with peeps.

Diamonds Are a Peep's Best Friend
But, do Gentle-Peeps really prefer blondes?

Peep Fiction
From a photo essay illustrating how peeps should use the library, "The inappropriate behaviors exhibited by the Peeps, as illustrated above, resulted in a visit with University Librarian Karin Borei. In the above photograph, the peeps can be observed listening to a stern lecture on library behavior."

Presidential Peeps
These Peeps are burning with pride for the new President. We don't know if Obama is a fan of the marshmallow treats, but we're of one thing: "Yes, Peeps can!"

Peep Taco
The sugary marshmallowy goodness just complements beans, salsa and cheese so perfectly.

How terrified would you be if a Peep actually appeared in your egg?

Let's hope Joe Francis doesn't show up to get footage for his next "Peeps Gone Wild" installment!

Peep Passport
Not many humans realize that peeps need passports to travel internationally. Does this mean the terrorists have won?

What is it about sugary-sweet marshmallow Peeps that makes us want to violate them, dress up them up and take pictures?

This makes me so pissed off.
I was one of the people that helped make the original Peepson (the Peep knockoff of the Simpsons), and was up for voting in the Washington Post, where most of these are from.
LAME, asshole.

The popularity of peeps is ever increasing. Have you ever youtubed peeps? There are a million videos about peeps, and the case is not helped by the fact the the vlogbrothers, aka brotherhood 2.0 seem to have immortalized eating large amounts of peeps all at once.
Nerdfighters! WOO!

My mom used to buy extra peeps during Easter and store them in the back of the kitchen cabinets. Then months later she would bring them out and they would be rock hard and lots of fun to chomp on. They ruined peeps when they put preservatives in them so that now they don't get rock hard like they used to.

The joke for Anna Nicole is done in very poor taste.

Want to have some senseless fun? Try microwaving a Peep. They blow up. Then you clean up. Its kind of a fun way to take out your holiday frustrations.

I didn't see it on youtube....the idea is older than the internet...contray to many beliefs people did do dumb things at one time and not make a "show" out of it.

I love Peeps in all their sickenly sweet goodness. Nothing like bitting the head of a Peep on Easter morning. There are so many varieties now its amazing. You can get them all year. I agree with the post about the stale Peeps...stale ones were the best because they lasted and were tough to eat.

Has anyone heard of a Peep going bad? I mean without getting wet or melting. These suckers last for eons. Its like some sort of warped form of eternal life...Peeps don't decay. If I'm wrong let me know.

My favorite way to eat peeps is roasted on a stick over an open-fire. When the sugar melts it taste like fried sugar.
