Beijing Olympics mascot Bing Dwen Dwen. Photo: Alex Pantling/Getty Images Like children and people chewing food, mascots should be seen and not heard. Case in point: the beloved Beijing Olympics mascot Bing Dwen Dwen. Just look at that adorable, glassy-eyed egg of a panda. Worthy of a gold medal simply for existing. Unfortunately, Bing Dwen Dwen has done the unspeakable: It spoke.
To be clear, the voice isn’t bad. It’s just unexpected, like Elizabeth Holmes’s voice or the voice of your younger cousin who went through puberty after you saw them last. You hear them speak and all your brain wants to do is go, Deep different voice!
