Another Unfortunate Bike Name

Now, is this a bike or a Seventies porn flick title? It could honestly work either way...

Tinkerbell

It's probably just me, but I think if you even consider buying something with this label on it, it's a safe bet you already look like a fairy...

Political Incorrectness

I believe the correct term these days is 'Chinese Americans'...

Greatest Passover Gifts Ever!

First there's this:



Isn't that a riot? Even better is this:




They even have an explanation of what represents what:



There's even a special product for those of you into one plague specifically:



This is just way too funny! I guess retail has listened to people who say they commercialize Christmas too much, only instead of cutting back they decided to commercialize everyone's holidays. I can't wait to see what we get in for Ramadan this year...

You know that cutey pie series of super-hero figures, the Super-Hero Squad? Here's a bad pic of one of the new Wolverine related series...



Now here's a close up of the Blob picture on the box and look at his hand...



Dude is totally flipping us off. And it's not just me. I noticed it when hanging with the Hasbro vendor and she took a picture to so she could show her boss...

Not Just Home Grown

Apparently we aren't producing enough locally and the home office has to ship some extra in. Thanks, home office...

No Joke Necessary

My only question is how legal this is. Didn't my second favorite whacky intern get in trouble for organ trafficking on General Hospital: Night Shift?

I Have No Clue What This Product Is

I walk by this everyday in the back room at My Walmart* and it never fails to disgust me. Maybe one of these days I'll look to see what it is but it can't be anything good.



Notice how the only word legible is 'safe'? Yeah. Right.

Asian, Black, and White

You know what? I've noticed living in Phoeniz, AZ, most people are unaware that Hispanic, specifically Mexican, is an ethnic background, not a separate race. Mexicans are as racially White as their biggest detractors. 'Course, Mexicans tend to take that as an insult as well and it's the source of some of my most fun arguments. But this? I think someone needs a remedial Grade School science class!



It's not even a race that generally self-perpetuates!



I should mention that I was gonna title this post with the scientific names for the three races but I'm not sure I want to have an argument that bad!

Three (3) Steps To Humor

Step One: Look at this picture of a Winnie The Pooh doll and note the position Winnie is in.



Step Two: Read the badly worded copy printed on the package.



Step Three: Feel unclean because of how funny you found that.

Naughty Sea Horses

Remember Sea Horses? The just add water pets?

No, this extra special second post of the day isn't to mock the wrist aquarium part (tho' that is very mock-worthy). No, it's the slogan elsewhere on the packaging:

Now that just makes me feel unclean...

Big Mo Update

Remember the Big Mo candy bar?

Today I was in a Circle K and pointed the Big Mo out to a guy that worked there. He didn't get why the candy bar's name was so funny! I gave up when explaining it failed. Sometimes I despair for the younger generations in this great country of ours. I really do.

Multi Culturalism

Does this sound Japanese to you? It does to me. In fact, now that this has been loosed on the internet I fully expect there to be a Japanese TV show by this name on the air within months. I will be waiting for my royalty checks...

Lifts AND Separates!

I found a really cool box when stocking bike accessories today*. The abbreviation they used just conjured up so many cool images for us.


In the interest of full disclosure, I should say that Speedo is somehow Bell's on the shipping box abbreviation for speedometer. It also illustrates why I think every company should have one employee whose only job is to read everything the company prints out loud. 'Course, that would have put an end to the Twenty Inch Boys Intruder but no plan's perfect!

Now, out at the smoking table we got to talking about the wireless Speedo and it got us thinking about the Speedo with wires. That'd be like an underwire bra, don't you think? We pretty much decided that an underwire Speedo would probably sell quite well.



* My boss announced today that we are now calling the Bike Accessories area the Ass Section. I didn't understand why and forgot to ask but it just sounds too cool not to go along with...

Companion Post To Below

This toy just seems like a perfect compliment to the one below, doesn't it?

It's Been Six Days So It's Something Lame Or Wait Until Tomorrow

Two things come to mind right away:
A) Absolutely no one in this company said the hair care product's name out loud before getting it into stores and...
2} This is soooo not a product name that appeals to me.

This Is Probably Only Funny To Me

This is some Pokemon character. It's part of an assortment of plushes we sell. Which Pokemon isn't important (or I might have read the tag to find out) but rather the bottom of this POkemon is.

Is it just me or have the makers of this Pokemon plush not only given this guy an anus but a dirty one at that? I'm all for realism in plushes but that takes it just a wee little step too far, don't you think?

Littlest Pet Shop Of Horrors

Hasbro's vendor, The Amazing Shirly (tm) showed me a picture on her phone of Littlest Pet Shop's latest offering and we were both reduced to stunned laughter. Here is a picture of the whole package:

You see, with these you get a little animal figure and some sort of accessory. It's the accessory that's so damn funny!

It's a little pooper scooper and plastic poop! LPS is selling plastic poop! OMG, I can barely type I'm laughing again.


What's scary is what can they do to top this? The mind boggles...

Wrong On SO-O-O-O-O Many Levels. Part Deux

Remember this picture?

I still haven't figure out who in their right mind would think this was a good name for a boy's bike. Well, guess what?

Yep, the bike finally came in!

The other day I even heard a mom talking with her husband, debating what bike to buy junior, and when she mentioned The Intruder, I had to leave the floor because I had to laugh so hard I almost collapsed and I know I'd have had to explain to people watching. Now, I just have one wish. I want the following bike to come in too so I can put it on the rack next to The Intruder.

It'd be a match made somewhere other than heaven, don't you think?

Painful Products

Oddly enough, this is not a big seller. Go figure, huh?
