Postmodern Barbie

marbletables is a bad yet AWESOME person. Because of her my face hurts from laughing and I have spent the last hour cackling, squeeing over Skype and watching Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse on Youtube, one three-minute episode at a time

KYAN AND BARQUELLE 4EVER

You have a problem. Specifically the problem of the TERRIBLE AWFUL NO GOOD VERY BAD SMUSH TUMBLR SHIPNAMES.

NO! BAD DEE!

*whaps with newspaper*

EEEEEEEEE!

PUPPIES!

This cannot get any less cool.

Raquelle has the biggest fucking crush on Barbie. The whole thing about wanting to get her hands on Ken? Totally redirected desire, allowing her to focus all her attention on Barbie. Which is understandable, because Barbie is fabulous and adorable.

(Gotta ship it in a V, though. An OT3 would scare Ken, but Barbie/Ken is unbreakable perfection.)

LOL, totes. Seriously, the last few seconds of the Barbie episode made my life.

(That totally works for me.)

OMG. I just spent way too much time watching the eps on YouTube. *shakes head*

I think the funniest thing is that while Barbie has a closet bigger than my house, she ALWAYS WEARS THE SAME OUTFIT. At least until going off to a special occasion. (And even then--she wore The Outfit on her anniversary date!).

Not too much time! NEVER ENOUGH TIME.

I KNOW. And she's supposed to be super fashionable but Raquelle's outfit is much more of the moment. But then I like black :)

I know. BEST. EVER.

HA HA, I just watched the first episode and loved it! ^_^

I never thought I would see the day where Barbie would make such fun of its own brand. Awesome!

I KNOW. BEST THING.

There were so many great, slyly witty little moments, I was actually boggled.
