One ring to rule them all

So my little dude is teething. At least I think he is. Evidence:

1. He is drooling at an impressive rate. The stuff is everywhere.
2. He's very fussy. He yells a lot more than he used to.
3. He has a little nubbin of a white spot on his upper gum. Unless he can grow whiteheads inside his mouth (which might be possible, seeing as how I've only known him a few months), I'm sayin' this is a tooth.


He also has a new fascination with what has to be the ugliest, strangest teething ring I've ever seen. He likes to grab it with both fists and cram it into his mouth. Concidentally, I like to do the same thing with cheeseburgers or pizza.


What twisted mind devised such a horrid looking "toy?"
