Hello, I feel the urge to write something about Computer Engineer Barbie, but I can only stare speechless at her picture: For those of you who don't know Computer Engineer Barbie, it's the, uhm, girl next to News Anchor Barbie. Regards Gyro
Hello, depending on in what world you live. Mattell (spel?) popped out (powerfull?) role models with this dolls. Now we have an engineer doll, which is fantastic. But we have also an engineer doll that looks, lets say, a little bit pink. I'm a very serious man, but if I meet a fellow engineer one day, who is looking like this doll, I must rotflmao. Regards Gyro
It annoyed me that she has glasses. But I must admit, I've never seen any of the girls in my computer classes wearing pink =P
Hello, in general I like women with spectacles. But in this case... Together with Hooker Barbie they can create a bestseller. At least in some groups of buyers. Regards Gyro
Hello, I know of one female computer engineer who has tons of pink stuff. Only one of several dozens. But nearly all of them wear spectacles. Regards Gyro
Dear Boogabaah, your parents let you play with Hooker Barbie? I'm... horrified. I better don't ask about Ken. Regards Gyro
Yes indeed... and in these troubled times we need realistic role models. I envision a new toy line- the Mr. Couch Potato play set with inaction figures included... the best part: NO BATTERIES REQUIRED!!!!!1!
Hello, cool. Do they come with this new pad thing with hf as the default web page? And a jumbo pack of potato chips (beware, not for human consumption)? Regards Gyro
I couldn't at first either, looked it up in google, found a news story about it (with the same exact pic) and then came to post and the picture was loaded +_+
Well- those cost extra... so it wouldn't be included in the basic set... but a list of things to pretend they are doing would be part of it because the immediate gratification leanings of modern culture has all but eliminated the need for imagination in children who are rightly being groomed for their place in a structured corporate existence.
mine were always being taken apart and carefully disposed of so they couldn't come to like and stab me in the eyes with their pointy little arms or make me wear pink fluffy things.
