As if Barbie wasn't bad enough for unrealistic self-image, she's apparently getting stomped by the 'prostiteen' Bratz dolls. So much so that Mattel is suing over the rights to the concept.
You worked at Mattel, right Dave? Please tell me you had nothing to do with the conception of those awful Bratz dolls.

I agree that barbies aren't that great, but they're not "terrible horribleness" or whatever. and bratz are really fun! especially kidz and babyz. I should know, I'm only a kid myself.

and have you seen the movies? bratz are different from the creepy, huge-eyed weird dolls they once were. they're trying to show girls that they can do anything they- hey how is this related to a comic strip about a ten-year-old boy billionair?
