Brazil's New Mascot Is Both Hilarious And Terrifying

Meet the Canarinho.

No, you don't want to meet him, but meet him. 

The name Canarinho (little canary) has been synonymous with Brazil's National Team since 1984, when their yellow kits were adopted. To honor that nickname (Why, we ask, of all Brazil's nicknames, would you choose to honor that one?), Brazil have up and got themselves a new mascot that looks like something teenagers would catapult at buildings on their cellphones.

GET THOSE CHILDREN AWAY FROM THAT THING! RUN! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

It looks like Tweety Bird's jacked oder brother who spent a few years in prison for stealing cars.

Can you imagine the Canarinho coming at you holding a t-shirt cannon?
