ok, i know i tend to go on a lot of rants, and a lot of this journal is chock full of soap box style "in my opinion" statements, but really. this is too much for me not to share. i just had to write something....
it's no secret that i LOVE saturday morning cartoons. i watch them while i eat breakfast and relax for about an hour and a half before i take my saturday morning run. it's the second best part of my week, while my favorite is sunday morning brunch with all of my friends. i watch dragon, and rabbit and his friends on qubo. mostly i like the cute, clean lines of the animation. oh, and the cute music. anyhow, a commercial just came on for barbie triplet puppies. it is a mother dog, that comes with 3 puppies, and news paper. to pee on. in the commercial, the mother dog says to one of the pups, "uh-oh, need to pee??? hurry!!" and a child squeezes the tiny little plastic puppy, and it squirts out a small amount of foamy, clear pee. not only is this a very intense commercial, but also, what the hell?? is this really necessary?? barbie, after all of these years of showing little girls how to dress, and teaching us what love is really about (the ferrari and the mansion, obvi) and let's not forget about the bathing suits and lingerie sets.., why can't you continue to sell yourself?? why are you resorting to peeing animals?? you used to be so classy, i mean, you wear high heels EVERYWHERE. what is up with the urination commercials? children are so strange these days. are they buying this stuff? i shouldn't forget, though, that it was only a year or 2 back when you introduced your pooping dog, tanner.. but who thinks it's a good idea?? would i have if i were 6? would i be asking my mom for the peeing puppies and their mommy, instead of taking care of my own puppy that had to go pee? my children are doomed. i will be an awful mom, too. i would never buy the fun toys that pee, or the sexy brat dolls. my children will be bullied in school, because their mom is an asshole, and doesn't understand why the peeing toys make you cool.
i made another stuffed animal last night. harold the owl. do you think my kids will be content with playing with one of these?? it doesn't come with a thong. and it doesn't pee or poop. i guess it doesn't do anything. it has huggy wings, though. i think that's nice. maybe i can get away with fun activities, like getting rocks really hot and melting crayons on them. we can call it "hot rocks". or maybe "who can make mommy the best martini".
oh good. look what i found.
