I'm so sick of recalls

Frankly, this one is painful. Today, they recalled Mega Brand's Magtastik toys

Josh got a couple of these sets for Christmas...one from my aunt, and one from us. And we LOVE them! They're one of the few toys he plays with almost daily. He hasn't lost interest in them in the slightest, and they offer engaging, creative, quiet play. I think all 3 of us will notice that these are gone.

Yes, they're sending us free replacement toys that are probably worth more than the sets that we had. But I'm just way less enthused about Spider-Man & Friends Mega Bloks. What a bummer.

This is the perfect example of what is wrong with this country. We are protecting people that are Stupid Gene dominant. Now, I know a lot of people that are recessive carriers of the stupid gene. No offense to those so inflicted, but it's a natural process when two of these carriers get together and have offspring... the stupid gene dominant offspring are winnowed away to make room for those of us who don't have it.

Case and point... some idiot let their kid eat a magnet. And not only did they not stop there, but they ALSO let said kid play with another magnet in such a way as to perforate the poor kid's stomach.

Clearly a stupid gene dominant individual... this idiot parent wouldn't have made it to puberty in previous generations. But, today... everything is sooooo safe that we're polluting the gene pool. Just think, stupid gene dominant people will slowly dominate our society.

God help us...

I'm so glad that someone else besides me saw that movie.

Dude... Not only did I see it, I loved it. Although it was about 30 minutes of funny stretched out into two hours.

More than once have I drawn allusions to "ow my balls" from current TV shows. Although I have to admit, "ow my balls" looks hilarious...

They have "ow my balls"-style billboards on the Southfield. It's awesome.
