Anyone heard it on the radio? For a nappy brand (can't remember which)

[GIRL SINGING] Pink, pink, I look so pretty
[BOY SINGING] Blue, blue, I look so cool

Seriously. Fuck off.

Huggies pull ups and i agree.

It does make me laugh how the children who are supposedly nappy training are so articulate though!

WhereTheSunDontShine · 12/07/2012 13:31

I never even thought of that, but yes!

YANBU, I hate them too. Plays into that irritating notion that girls are just 'pretty' and boys are 'cool'. Thank fuck I don't buy huggies.
