I mean, pragmatically, you can make a rocket outta Lego if you needed one...ahhh, don't get me started.) Anyway, we saw one which featured, dig this, a gimmick where you can BRAND HORSES. You get these toy horses with the thing, and presumably there's some kind of heat-sensitive paint on 'em. Whatever, I didn't stick around to find out, I was too busy being amused and apalled by not only the c0ncept, but also the illustration on the box highlighting the feature, which featured a cartoon of a horse wide-eyed in shock and pain, with the mofo iron just c0ming away from his seared flank! Cheez-Wiz!>>>Second, on Dea's IP startup screen, there's that daily red headline (usually detailing a recent grisly murder.) Today, it read: BUSH WARNS IT IS BAD TIME TO BE A HUMAN SHIELD. And when, exactly, is it a good time?-Depon Answers to this message: |
