Y’know, as a father I can tell you that this happens to me more often than you might think.

Am I the only one who’s more disturbed by how much effing Elmo shit this kid has than by what the doll actually says?

And it’s under 15 grand!

My brain was just totally freaked out by this Sesame Street sketch where Seymour wakes up, rides a pterodactyl to visit some cavemen and opens a very successful frozen yogurt stand.

The song sounds like Devo meets David Byrne and the drugs are like Timothy Leary meets Hunter S. Thompson.

Uh, I’m all for teaching kids about the Circle of Life and what-not, but does anybody else get creeped out by this Vulture Playset from Playmobil in Germany?

Does it really come with the side o’ beef bones?

If so, how do the cows in the nearby farm playset feel about this?

Apparently the folks at Playskool were really excited about their diapers called Plushies and didn’t do any research about what the name means in some circles:

What is a Plushie?

A plushie is simply what most people call a stuffed animal or a plush animal. Plushies can be almost any size from a few inches to six feet tall, or larger. Plushies are usually made in the form of some type of animal, with bears and bunnies probably being the most common. Plushies are usually covered in soft plush material, however this is not always the case. Some plushies are made out of smooth nylon, felt or some other fabric. They are generally stuffed with soft polyester fiber. Beanie babies are also considered to be plushies, as are many handpuppets. Sometimes the word plushie is used as a short term to refer to a person who is a plushophile.

What is a Plushophile?

A plushophile is someone who loves plushies. This can be for any reason and ranges anywhere from those who love to collect them to those who like to cuddle, sleep with or who become sexually involved with their plushies. Many, probably most, plushophiles are also furries. It is never safe to assume that particular plushophiles are sexually active with plushies, nor that they are inactive with people because of their plushophilia. Each individual is different.

“Each individual is different.” Yes. Yes they are.
