Natter 59: Dominate Your Face!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
They've "reimagined" Strawberry Shortcake. Also Angelina Ballerina. Strawberry Shortcake looks totally different. Angelina seems to have just gotten computer-animated and skinnier. [link]
What a beautiful creature sumi! I am so sharing that with my kids.
From the toy article:
Go too far, as Mattel did in 1993 when it gave Ken a purple mesh T-shirt, a pierced ear and the name “Earring Magic Ken,” and it can set off a brand crisis on a global scale.
OMG, I totally had one of these as a kid. I was born to have a gay boyfriend, wasn't I?
Also from the toy article:
Warner Brothers hopes to “reinvigorate and reimagine” Bugs Bunny and Scooby-Doo through a new virtual world on the Internet, where people will be able to dress up the characters pretty much any way they want.
I could not possibly care less about Scooby-Doo, but HANDS OFF BUGS.
Wasn't that the one dubbed Cock Ring Ken?
I never had a Ken doll, but I had a kick ass barbie with really long, crimpy hair. Does anyone remember her name? Apparently (not verified), she's now collectible. If intact. This would be helpful if my babysitter hadn't given her an impromptu haircut once upon a time.
Additionally, my coworker brought in all kinds of devilishly delicious treats that are very, very indulgent. Then she proceeded to open all the naughty little packages up and left. Bitch.
Now I'm compulsively eating licorice (the unnatural, red dye kind).
That was indeed Cock Ring Ken.
HANDS OFF BUGS
Bugs never had any inhibitions about dressing up...
