Coastie04 Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 My wee wench is just getting into Barbie. We managed to avoid the Barney phase by explaining extinction to her, but there's no getting away from the Evil Pink. If exlplaining extinction did it for Barney, then for the pink you have to explain that the 80's are long gone, and their styles are extinct. It's been more than a decade, and there's no excuse to be living that far in the past. Hope it helps Coastie04 She was bigger and faster when under full sail With a gale on the beam and the seas o'er the rail
the Royaliste Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 Aw,'eck...start 'er on the 'trailer trash Barbie'...a better dose of reality than the pink stuff....
Cap'n Coyote Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 Ah, yes. That's the set where the corvette is up on blocks and the dream home is a double-wide. That 'un's reeel pop'lar here in th' hollers. ummm, coastie? It'd be kinda hard convincin' her that the 80's are extinct, since I can't get out of 'em myself. What can I say? Them's my formative years. *goes off to watch Knight Rider* Rumors of my death were right on the money.
BLACK JACK SHALAQ Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Yer a proud pappy mate, I kin tell. Enjoy every second when dar small cuz they'll be real people before ya knows it, then thar gone. A voice of fatherhood past, Black Jack YER ANKLES WILL LOOK LOVELY BEHIND YER EARS LASSIE! HAR! HAR! HAR!
El Pirata Posted October 7, 2003 Author Posted October 7, 2003 While not being a Jolly Roger Barbie, I thought about painting the Barbie Van into the Mystery Machine. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Zephyr Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 (still shuddern at the thought....in pink?.......don't worry, children grow out of it....usually) I hope she does grow out of the Barbi phase soon.... My wee wench is just getting into Barbie. We managed to avoid the Barney phase by explaining extinction to her, but there's no getting away from the Evil Pink. she's everywhere Did ye know that a "Barney" is a pub term for a skuffle? Is ther a hidden message here? Watch out for all that pink ruffle stuff, me parents insisted on doin me bedroom in white furniture (with gold trim......) with lavender and pink ruffle everything (I wanted cherry wood and a red chinese lacquer dresser I'd seen in an antique shop ($$$).....I lost. I can't help but say that it's effected me for me whole life. It were worse for most a' me school friends. Some a' them still wanna-be-Barbie. Then, not a one of us had pythons.
Mad Maudlin McCrumb Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 Then, not a one of us had pythons. Maybe YOU didn't... Some of us might have.... "You have a woman's skin, m'lord! I'll wager that hides never been rubbed with salt and flayed off to make stockin's for a pirates best cabin boy!"
El Pirata Posted October 8, 2003 Author Posted October 8, 2003 I be afraid to ask what ye means.... Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
