WV is trying to ban barbies... seriously. How stupid is that? CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Just in time for Barbie's 50th birthday, a West Virginia lawmaker wants to outlaw the doll. Democratic Delegate Jeff Eldridge is proposing to ban the sale of the Mattel doll and others like her in West Virginia. He says the dolls influence girls to place too much importance on physical beauty, at the expense of their intellectual and emotional development. He joins others who have criticized the doll over the years for promoting materialism and an unnatural body image. Barbie turns 50 on March 9, and the toy maker has made big plans this year to mark the anniversary. Copyright © 2009 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. I had barbies and didn't want to look like them. I always tried to make them look better by drawing on their eyes with pens and using nail polish on their mouths for lipstick. Nail polish remover, however, will erase eyes and lips, so I had one Barbie that was really scary. Anyway, I think it's stupid. It's a toy. If you want to look like a piece of plastic, you're just fucked up and you'll be fucked up over something else. It's really annoying.
The good people of West Virginia wouldn't have voted him in if they didn't think he knew what is best for them.
I always gave my barbies dyke haircuts, and I remember melting a few in my Easy Bake Oven... I also remember my dog always pooping out barbie shoes.
If they think banning barbies will help raise little girls to believe they are more than fuckholes for men.... good luck. When women see 18 year old girls with the brains of a cocker spaniel stripping and making 1,000 a night, they tend to realize if they are hot they can be rich.... no matter how stupid they may be. Hell, even ugly chicks get about 1,000 a scene to shoot porno. How many guys would fuck chicks for 1,000 dollars a pop? Sorry. Unless you're Ron Jeremy, you have to work for a living. Then marry a hot chick who will fuck you for half your worth. Ain't society great?

So my kids went through Barbies quick like 6 mos, who gives a flying fuck about Barbie, she sucks nobody plays with her and her man is gay Let it go
I can only speak for myself and that was 20 years ago, but I played with Barbies, matchbox cars and stuffed animals. But I would have been sad with no Barbies. Even more than that, with the way the economy is why cut a chunk of potential sales tax from it. Doesn't make sense. 6% sales tax on each Barbie and all of the million accessories that go with it... dumb move. I don't know what kids these days do for fun. I'm sure it doesn't take much imagination with all of the technology kids have now.
Your whole state's going to end up like one of those little towns around here with only a Dairy Queen, and people drive 30 miles to shop at the closest WalMart to save 18 cents on a package of briefs. There'll be nothing for the kids to do but drink and fuck.
That's all they do now, I think. I like small towns, personally. I don't see myself moving unless we get more people moving here and crime goes up, which lately it has and it sucks.
Damn... I can't stand those fucking towns. If you're out past dusk, you're limited to eating Whataburger, mailbox hunting, or... well... fuck. nothing.
Really small towns tend to have an insane amount of drug and alchohol abuse for those exact reasons. I read an article in a small town newspaper where some relatives of mine live in N.C and someone was quoted as saying "We do drugs because there's nothing else to do here". Hilarious!
I don't go out past dark. Nothing out there but deer and drunks. Just a car accident waiting to happen.
Where my mom is in TN, just across the border from Boone, NC. they have a high drug rate. Whenever we go up I always read about someone in the local paper getting killed by exposure. Of course that is an easy way to clean out the gene pool. The sad thing is, in those small towns, there are like 8 families that have 90% of the income, then the rest work at burgerking. My mom works in NC, but lives in TN because the cost of living is retarded cheap.
I just saw something about parents pissed off about Barbie now can come with tattoos. What a tramp. I hope her pink Jeep gets reposed and her pink mansion get foreclosed when I see the giant box of nakid Barbies and "wanna be Baribes" at the thrift store, I think that it would be fun to collect a bunch over time, and stick them in some one's yard..all standing up - That would creep me out if I went out side and saw a shit load of standing Barbies in my yard.
