With my brand new, cheaper-because-it’s-not-the-current-model Canon Digital Rebel XT, I discover THIS:

Just what the hell has been going on in my daughter’s dollhouse?
Love to all. Even you, the battling ladies of baggery.

hmmm… did you ever talk to her about birds and bees?
Yeah, what’s up with the knickers look on Ken?
Well, at least he still has his pants on.
At least he’s not shirtcocked in there.
Just look at the smile on his dial.
I don’t know…I was thinking they look like they’ve had a fight since they’re both turned away from one another. They also both seem to have passed out fully-clothed.
It is possible that Ken doesn’t know that “no means no” and Barbie had to smack him down a little.
But seriously…not so much a big deal. Your girl sees mom and dad sleep in the same bed every night. It’s only when she starts rubbing Ken’s ambiguous boyness up against Barbie’s vague girlness that you have a problem.
They look appropriately disheveled and exhausted. What do you THINK is going on?
Did I tell you the lesbian Barbie story?
Okay - here’s the lesbian Barbie story:
We’re raising our kids to be pretty open-minded and accepting, so keep that in mind. One evening, in a Friendly’s, I think it was, Punkin’ Pie made the announcement that they wanted more “boy dollies.” Apparently, there weren’t enough boy dollies to make a good party, and they wanted to add to the male population in the dolly box.
“How many girl dollies do you have?” I asked.
“I don’t know… a lot” was the answer.
“At least ten?”
“Probably.”
“Well, ya know, if you’ve got at least ten dollies, there’s a better than even chance that at least ONE of them is a lesbian. You may not NEED another boy dolly.”
“Huh. I hadn’t thought about that.” (seriously - that was her first response). She thought about it for a minute and said, “well, you may be right, but I still think we need at least another boy dolly.”
That is so funny! I wouldn’t worry about it. Every little girl does that with their barbies.
I have boys so when they see barbies… first they are enamored by the hard plastic breasts and second they want to pull the heads off. Hmm maybe I should be more concerned than you are. I should clarify, this is when they are under the age of 4. The older boys see a barbie and run for the hills. ewww, yuck, girls are gross.
Thanks for a good laugh.
Hmmm, you can’t see Barbie’s face, so you can’t tell if she’s sated or pissed off. So I don’t think you can know what’s been going on in the dollhouse.
And boy, Ken sure does have some flat feet! I guess that’s to equilibrate Barbie’s only-made-for-high-heels-so-she-can’t-stand-flat-on-her-feet feet.
I’m shocked that-
a) the contractor hasn’t finished the wallboard. Jeez, even a Princess can’t get the wall between her bed and bath finished on time.
b) her purse is in the same room as the doll. My daughter’s Barbies haven’t seen a shoe or a purse in years!
c) Ken is trying to pull of the knickers look. That’s SOOO 1700’s!
Ken’s not going to get much play with that George Michael looking vest.
I don’t think you need to worry.
I”m pretty sure that Ken is wearing ladies clothing.
Maybe he’s simply a Gender Bender. Who knows?
I think Ken figured he’d impress Barbie by taking her to the prom in a Renfest-style get-up. I should probably explain that Renfest is a local term for the twice-yearly Georgia Renaissance Festival, which is a pretty righteous throwdown from what I hear-turkey legs the size of your head! Wenches! Mead! Jesters! (Non-metaphorical) sword fights! (Metaphorical and non-metaphorical) jousting! Is all this actually historically accurate? Does it matter?
Anyway, back to my take on this incriminating photo evidence…unfortunately, the prom didn’t go so great–unless puking crab legs and Southern Comfort on your girlfriend in the middle of Poison’s “Every Rose Has Its Thorn”, right before she’s about to be crowned prom queen is great–so now he and Barbie are sharing an awkward night in the guest bedroom at the house of the kid who always throws a party (there’s one at every high school in America), and everyone outside the bedroom assumes something’s going on, but it’s not. Oh no, my friends, it is not.
You know what all this means, right? Exactly. Ken should’ve rocked the kilt instead.
Hmmmm. On closer inspection, I notice that Ken has the twin bed and Barbie is on the floor.
Looks like a frat party ended in disappointment for ol’ Kenbo there.
OR
Have you considered that may be a double homicide? Just look at the angle of their necks… surely they were killed.
Yes, I’d be concerned. But not about the birds and the bees.
On a side note, Renfest sounds like fun! I quite enjoy dressing like a wench!
Jeremy, you sound as if you speak from experience, Bud. Are you relating your own prom night experience? Crab legs and Southern Comfort. Hells yeah! It actually makes me want to puke just thinking about it.
I think Jeremy wins for best, most creative description of Ken and Barbie’s antics. Does he win a prize?
HA! I was so going to say that it looks like the late night after prom.
Truly, Miss Britt and her dates were passed out in full regalia until I woke them up and made them go - ALSO still in full regalia - to church with me in the morning.
Ahhhh, the memories of mother revenge.
Yep - I’m sure that’s what’s happening here.
OMG, DCup is right! Ken’s on the bed and Barbie’s on the floor! So not only did was he too drunk to close the deal, he left poor passed out Barbie to spend the night on the floor. What a dick! (even though he doesn’t have one).
Though Jeremy’s entry in the “what happened in the dollhouse” does get props and brings back fond memories of my finest celebrity encounter: making out with Richard Hatch (Apollo in the *original* Battlestar Galactica!) at the Renfest in 1982 when I was 16 years old.
ugh, “So not only was he too drunk…” Excise the “did”
The editor obviously needs an editor
I’d tell the “passed out” lug to GET OFF MY HAIR!!! I can’t think of a more entertaining blog/comments. Amazing what story one can tell from a single picture. Reminds me, I’m burning some pictures later today!!
TheMom: I know, I know! I don’t even want to say anything because the comments are so freakin’ fantastic.
Renn: Are you saying Barbie is a “fag hag?”
Vinny,
Why not? There’s no shame in it. I mean, really. At the very least, he’s borderline poofter.
I think they’d both had too much to drink and he walked her home and they maybe kissed a little and then they went to sleep. The worst part is that they didn’t brush their teeth first. Ick.
Oh wow. Best comments EVER. Haha! George Michael looking vest. *snort*
I was just going to say you’re lucky they’re not doing what some of my Barbies did when I was a kid. I’m almost embarrassed at how dirty my mind was.
Nice one, Rich (and commenters especially!).
Didn’t Barbie and Ken break up a few years ago? Ex-Sex is SO shameful…
You all have dirty minds. Did no one think that Ken had an early morning T-time? Maybe that is the reason for the knickers.
Been really good if they were naked & in a weird position, lol
