Why on earth would anyone spend money on this stuff? And AIBU to think those who do are incredibly strange people?

Or am I just a snob?

LOL. That probably is advisable Goth.

If you were going to make a living selling dolls of babies. If I had kids that looked like that I'd put them up for adoption.

muggglewump · 07/07/2009 17:21

Why in the name of arse would you wear a pandant of a doll pretending to be a baby?

flatcapandpearls · 07/07/2009 17:23

I love their slogan, innovation, artistry and design of enduring value.

That wolf vase had hairy legs

Thunderduck · 07/07/2009 17:24

Well it's useful as a warning to others. Warning complete and utter loon approaching. Likely to babysnatch.

God I so want to buy that Princess Diana music box for my DD's friend who has her 7th birthday in a week and desperately wants a music box.

But

a) it is £29.99

and

b) her mother would think I am barking

muggglewump · 07/07/2009 20:33

this?

Oh yes, she really would think you are barking. I do a bit too

HerBeatitudeLittleBella · 07/07/2009 20:35

Oh LOL

No, that one isn't quite right. Not pink and curvy enough.

M would love it! OK, her mother wouldn't, I don't, no-one normal does, but for a seven year old girl.... bliss!

HerBeatitudeLittleBella · 07/07/2009 20:37

This one

Hormonesnomore · 07/07/2009 20:41

'banana not included'

AnarchyAunt · 07/07/2009 20:51

Anybody for one of these??

HerBeatitudeLittleBella · 07/07/2009 20:53

Thinnk I'd rather just have the banana...

Yurtgirl · 07/07/2009 20:59

Yurtgirl · 07/07/2009 21:00

LaydeeStardust · 07/07/2009 21:01

My jaw has just hit the floor looking at these links

The dolls!!! I'm in shock. I think I may have nightmares tonight......I had no idea that there were such things in the world

off to steady nerves with a stiff drink

(kingrolo-agree completely hilarious, "cat not included")

FlappyTheBat · 07/07/2009 21:52
