Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We had the schoolhouse too - I thought the wall/chalkboard was awesome! We also had the farm, which I was vaguely annoyed with for pertetuating the myth that "all farms have pigs and horses in addition to cows." But my fave was the gas station, with the elevator and the ramps for cars to drive down.

Art Crawl!!!

We had the farm.

I think we had Little People actually made out of wood. But I could be misremembering.

Gordon.

Gordon had an orange body.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

something with dragons

The castle. It was, to no surprise, my all time favorite.

looks around

I still have it at my grandma's. She had to go buy a new one when my siblings and cousins were born cause I wouldn't let anyone play with mine.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

We have a bunch of old skool Little People for Franny. I hope neither she nor her brother try to eat them.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

We had (and still have) the house, the farm, the garage, and possibly one other that I'm not remembering right now. The farm still says "moo" when you open the door. The house was my very favorite.

Yay for the rescued Little Person!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I had the Sesame Street one, too. There was an African American woman in purple with that set. In concur that Mr. Hooper was in green and white, and Gordon in Orange.

This is going to distress Liese, but in the closets of my childhood home, we'd often tie little people to light cords in closets and such so you wouldn't be groping in the dark for a flimsy bit of string. They really make an ideal pull .

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I was five when I put my hand in the blender, just because my mother told me not to and then put my sister in charge of making sure I didn't when she left the room.

Yeeeee. Did you get hurt, Perkins?

Not as badly as I probably deserved. Other than a visible scar on the tip of another finger, all the damage is limited to the index finger of my right hand,which has a couple of scars, and a little bit of a dent/crookedness at the top knuckle. I hold pens/pencils and chopsticks funny, but that may or may not be related.

eta: I am very sad now that I had no little people growing up.
