What is Arthur?

[Icamenal]

Title says it all.

An Aardvark

Translated to English from Afrikaans as Earth pig.

EDIT: This is true because the creators said so.

[Excalibur]

um Arthur is king.

Does that LOOK like an aardvark to you? DOES IT?
oh, and very nice picture of an aardvark, by the way.

The creators say so...

Arthur Read, the series's titular character, is an anthropomorphic eight-year-old brown aardvark who lives in the fictional town of Elwood City. He is a third-grade student at Lakewood Elementary School.

*goes through the four stages of grief*
Denial: NO! YOU'RE WRONG!
Depression: *cries in a corner with a blankie* And here I LIKED aardvarks
Anger: Well, I'm not angry, I'm just vocal.
Acceptance: I guess you're right.
My childhood is ruined. My whole life I thought that gross picture on the wall of the library was a bear. *continues crying while dramatic music plays*

IIRC he actually started as an aardvark with a nose and everything (in a book series)... They even had a storyline where he disliked his nose but eventually came to accept it... Then, when the show started, they got rid of it, anyways
My memory's a bit spotty (and I'm too lazy to look it up), but it was something like that...

[Icamenal]

So the moral of Arthur is that if you accept a part of yourself that you dislike, that entire part of your body will magically disappear. Seems legit.
