"Little girls worship her; adult women want to be her."

What an unbelievably stupid thing to say.

Why did Barbie and Ken split up in 2004? And how exactly did they reconcile? I HAVE TO KNOW THIS.

They split up because they had no genitalia.

They reconciled following augmentation surgery.

I bet that would dilate the pupils.

Handler named the Americanized doll after her daughter, Barbara.


Barbie's boyfriend is Ken. He's named after Handler's real-life son, who, incidentally, hated the comparisons.



So Barbie moved to Wisconsin from West Virginia?

Aren't Barbie and Skipper Sisters, or is that the point? And don't they have an even younger sister somewhere?

Adult women want their junk going bad and not being able to marry by age 50 despite looking like that?

I dated a girl named Barbie. She turned out to be a slut.

Go figure.

"Teacher Barbie was recalled in 1995 because she wasn't wearing panties."

Yeah, but that was way back last century.

Nowadays teacher Barbie could bang multiple students in the backseat of a car on school property, post the cell phone videos on her myspace page, and still wouldn't be recalled.

Q) Does Barbie come with Ken?

A) No, she fakes it with Ken, she Comes with G.I. Joe

24 Barbie has had more than 1 billion pairs of shoes.

And I bet she still farking complains that she has nothing to wear.

Becky was my favorite FAVORITE barbie. I loved her cause she was a red head (like me) and could ride on my breyer and barbie horses. My Becky doll was the one of the "Olympic Dolls", so she came with a red, white and blue wheelchair and a camera...

Barbies are one of the best toys for developing a kids imagination... I hope they survive another 50 years.

The original Barbie's from the 60's were really classy and elegant. Except for this
www.fashion-doll-guide.com
This outfit is called, "Roman Holiday". You know, after the movie while Barbie vacations in Rome. How freakin' obnoxious is that outfit? Decked out in red white and blue. I bet she would shout things slowly in English too. Damn you Barbie! You're always giving the USA a bad name!

/hotlinked.
//that outfit also comes with tons of accessories that would KILL today's precious little snowflake. A mini compact, earrings with DANGEROUS poking eyes out RODS in them, a necklace no bigger than your thumbnail which you could swallow and get lead poisoning, etc etc.
///slashies!

No, that's Aging Barbie without the optional Cosmetic Surgery pack.

But how did Becky get in that wheelchair? Link NSFW (new window)

Crap list of facts. This is about as truthful as Disney's official history of Walt.

Barbie was not the brainchild of Ruth Handler. She took a trip to Germany and saw something she wanted to copy and call her own idea in USA. The Bild Lilli doll. One of a number of German fashion dolls.

Other contries whose National colours are red white and blue would be: Costa Rica, Croatia, Yugoslavia, Philippines, Russia, Cuba, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Thailand, France, Iceland, Liberia, Malaysia, Panama & the United Kingdom.

I bet she would shout things slowly in Malay too. Damn you Barbie! You're always giving Malaysia a bad name!

farkin' hate barbie and all that she represents...(worse than bratz) --damn, i'm even hesitant to let my daughter watch Disney cartoons (depending on the movie). Dora, strawberry shortcake (barely), are cool.

Came for nasty pics of Ken doing Barbie doggy-style and left very disappointed....
