These two lists are just too funny not to share with everyone: The Top 25 Men Who Look Like Old Lesbians and The 25 Most Baffling Toys From Around the World .
It’s hard to tell which is funnier, but I would definitely vote for the list of toys.
Also, Dr. Fred Coolick certainly deserves a shout out here, as most (by my count 15/25) of these toys were produced by the Japanese, one of his favorite ethnic groups to disparage (sneaky Japs, anyone? And no, I don’t mean the stuck-up NY kind). Did anyone know that Coolicus grew up in Manchester, GA–famously known as “The Magic City”–from 1948 to 1964 and has nothing but fond memories of growing up in that wonderful little community? It seems fairly obvious (but I’ll say it anyway) that Dr. Coolick’s success, both in life and in the CIA, clearly stemmed from this fantastic town, as they say there (or at least as they said there in 1944): “As the twig is bent, so the tree is inclined.” Don’t believe me? You don’t have to. See what our very own Dr. C wrote nearly a decade ago on the cyberspace guestbook of this small town of almost 4,000 inhabitants (only 12 people short in 2000!) on Monday, June 28, 1999. “May God continue to shower His blessings upon Manchester in the future, as He has so bountifully done in the past,” indeed!
haha. First of all, you are rocking the tags. Keep that going.
Who knew there was such a market for toys based around defecation?
Thanks for the Coolick bio; how do you know where he grew up? And woah, he was signing guestbooks in 1999, amazing. But he didn’t say that….where is it from?
Oh I see. Also, look how fast google works.
