I’ve heard of baby dolls that go potty…
…but dolls with potty mouths?
Some customers are demanding Toys R Us pull the “You & Me Interactive Play & Giggle Triplet Dolls” from their shelves because one of the dolls says “you crazy bitch.”
Triplet’s got ‘tude.
The dolls are sold exclusively at Toys R Us and are intended for children 2 years and up. The store says the complaints have been scattered and they will stand behind the product.
Personally? I think the doll did it. And I think parents are crazy not to want to keep it around.
Your kids start cursing? You would never talk that way in front of them. Must be that darn baby doll the children wanted so badly.
Not your fault. Nope, you’re good parents.
Mixed messages
I’m feeling very two-dimensional today.
I like Huff Post. I find myself reading it most days…either by going there directly or via a link from another source.
But today I noticed — for the first time — that Huff Post defines issues of interest to women in a pretty narrow way. Just check out their navigation.
Business, politics and tech are all broken up into six sub-categories apiece. Entertainment has eight, culture 10, lifestyle 12.
But women?
Complicated creatures that we are, Huff Post sums us up in two — healthy living and parents. That’s all they got. Sure hope you fall into one of those buckets.
Of course, it could be worse.
Men didn’t even rate the header.
