There was this big, almost person-sized canvas that someone had painted black, then glued about 50 severed Barbie heads on it, then shot the whole mess with a paintball gun. Several times. <br />I also decided that this absolutely MUST be documented (I assume it was indicated in several crimes) so I pulled out my phone and tried to take a picture. Then the guy running the booth pops up and eagerly tells me I should be in the picture and practically forces me to hand my phone to my husband, dragging me in front of the monstrosity. He stood there all proud like he was Picaso (I could have sworn he said he made the thing himself, but it was quite a few years ago!). It was the most awkwardly hilarious shopping experience ever!Jay Stellernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-14789274741012821712016-02-24T15:38:00.690-05:002016-02-24T15:38:00.690-05:00So, creepy as though the mouth contents of the wei...So, creepy as though the mouth contents of the weird baby doll are, look at its right eye -- it's extra creepy with the white part and the triangle in it!! Aigh!!!! I hate dolls but creepy baby dolls are the worst. I wouldn't mind the nest of spiders, but this baby doll looks like it would definitely kill me in my sleep!! Also, the weird stuff in the mouth looks like the hair of another doll -- like this one ATE another poor smaller creepy doll. It also took some of that victim doll's hair and made some sort of creepy hair undershirt which you can see peeking out of its right shoulder. Perhaps it's a form of atonement FOR EATING PEOPLE. And other creepy dolls.Cowgirl68https://www.blogger.com/profile/03345602558147085951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-87707843199798164212016-02-24T13:59:58.717-05:002016-02-24T13:59:58.717-05:00Ahh, I KNEW some of you would get it!

Tiny "lotus" feet were prized as elegant and beautiful, so girls feet were broken, bound in tight strips of cloth over a period of time so they would stay small. The resulting folded-over, triangular-shaped feet were painful and nigh impossible to walk on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_bindingWennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07615245473375110976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-40494365653192780632016-02-24T12:07:00.393-05:002016-02-24T12:07:00.393-05:00Oh yeah, I forgot - they came in only three colors...Oh yeah, I forgot - they came in only three colors, that baby-blue one, some kind of off-white and a really disreputable shade of brown. BTW, I am now imagining Ron and Harry zooming around in a flying Trabi, with people below cocking their heads quizzically and asking: "Do you hear that...?" And the other one replying: "And what's that smell...?"<br /><br />And yes, they were surprisingly long-lived. Wikipedia puts the average product life of a Trabi at 28 years (wow!). I guess it was because you had to take really good care of them, for if they broke down, they wouldn't be easy to replace (another 18 years of waiting, and other cars were really hard to come by). And as they had about two moving parts, teaching yourself to maintain and repair one wasn't that hard.
