At least **you** don’t have “Barbie Girl” stuck in your head. What the hell were those things supposed to be, anyway? Chimps? Retarded children? ---

Did you write [this?](http://punkrock.about.com/library/howto/htmohawk.htm) So… when you sing this monchichi song do you suck your thumb? ---

Monchichi horrified me as a child. Why would any kid want to play with anything that ugly? I didn’t even want to be in the toystore aisle where those things lurked. And sucking it’s thumb! Fine young ladies never sucked their thumbs, if I were going to grow up and go to school, I wouldn’t want to suck my thumb so why was that monkey? child? what WAS that? sucking it’s thumb? ---

I just saw a souvenir shop in Asakusa, Tokyo, last week that hundreds of Monchichis dressed in Giants baseball uniforms. Don’t know if they were boy or girl monchichis, the shopkeepers called security before I could take their pants off. ---

That wouldn’t have helped you out much, **Sublight**. The only difference I remember was that the girls had a ponytail-like tuft of hair on top of their heads with a pink ribbon. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/monchichi/83881.md?page=2)
