Nitpick: it’s in the Western District of Pennsylvania.
Its Christmas night, and this guy hasn’t bought any gifts for his family yet. He gets gifts for everyone, except his daughter, who really wants the newest Barbie, and a Ken to go with it. The guy figures he’ll save some money and buy them as a set, only he can’t find them. He goes to the clerk and asks “Does Barbie come with Ken?” the clerk replies “No, she fakes it with Ken, she only comes with G.I. Joe”
Not my Barbie dolls, that’s for sure. They were the biggest sluts around.
BTW, Barbie is actually NOT a stereotypical bimbo. Some of the careers she’s had:
President of the USA
Marine Corp
UNICEF Ambassador
Goodwill Ambassador
Teacher
Paleontologist
Astronaut
Vet
Doctor
Nurse
Spy
Race car driver
Actress
Business exec
Model
Photographer
Pediatrician
Aw come on, Guin, we all know Barbie slept her way to the top!
Nah she has no riggin for sex, she just cant make up her empty head which career she wants.
“I’m a bimbo girl…
In a bimbo woooorld
My tits are plastic,
they’re fantastic”
Buliwyf
Yeah, but Ken’s more of an accessory. At least my Ken was. He always wore the same clothes and was just a fuck toy for my Barbies.
Hehehee…
I could picture that. Talking President Barbie would speak “English, French, and Mexican.” We wouldn’t have to worry that she isn’t too bright and thinks, “Math is hard,” because she would be surrounded by competent advisors.
Minus the foreign language abilities, isn’t this what the White House is like now?
I was in fifth grade when that song was big, and not one of us (who were pretty much the crowd it was targeted for) noticed any “sexual innuendo.” I mean, I was never a big Barbie fan (I just liked to do their hair) but the song was always fun to sing along to. I think Mattel is just bitching about this for no reason. They gave Barbie the somewhat disreputable image she has now, and are trying to blame it on someone else.
I think some people have to get lives…
Come on, how many hits has Aqua had recently? That was their 15 minutes of fame. Was it loaded with sexual innuendo? Yes, but let’s just be magnanimous about it and let it go. By dragging it out, Mattel makes itself look even stupider.
They can sit on the shelf next to the Judge Judy [sup]TM[/sup] Action Figure, now with Gavel Throwing Action [sup]TM[/sup].
Whoosh?
Jesus! Can’t that chick hold down a job for longer than a week?
I feel sorry for the judge on this case
You go to law school, practice law then you become a judge…
Only to listen to to a record company and a toy maker argue about a doll.
Shouldn’t Judge Judy be presiding on this case?
That was the point I was trying to make
Of course, there would be no danger of President Barbie choking on a potato chip. Potato chips interfere with her oil-soaked-cotton-ball diet.
I should have went with my first idea:
The VP would be the one really in charge.
New SDMB party game:
In a reply to any Pit thread of a non-political nature, drop the word ‘president’ into a conversation, then tally the inevitable shots at the current administration, using the following scoring:
If the response is a simple variation of ‘(Bush|Ashcroft|Cheney) Sucks’, the response is worth 1 point.
If the respondant makes any discernable attempt to tie his shot to the current topic, his response is worth two points.
If the response is both clearly tied to the topic and contains a reasonably well-constructed flame, that response is worth three points. You are further advised to e-mail a screen capture to Art Bell, who reportedly runs a brisk trade in such obscure and improbable oddities.
That makes no sense. If it were the Western District of Pa., then the court would have had jurisdiction.
