Kewpie dolls are creepy.

I inherited an old kewpie doll. I can't believe little girls actually used to play with those; they are pretty freaky looking little dolls. I keep mine locked in the closet so it can't run around the house while I'm asleep.

Oh! I just watched that one and can't find a shot either. How about just a picture of Abby since she is 10 years younger than Barbie?

Old enough to scare the hell outta me as a kid, and I'm in my 40's.

For a blast from the past for you Farkers my age, here's a little something for you. Tina's Pissed (Youtube link)

I always wondered why my Kewpie mayo has that creepy farking baby on the bottle. And I thought it was made of babies. Oh well.

I never knew what a Kewpie doll was until i saw one on the internet as a teen. When I was a baby, my gramma always used to stick my hair up in a little point to make me look like one.

itazurakko, you can buy that at my local super market. It's not just good, it's msgood.

Mmmm, Kewpees... Any Farkers from the Racine, Wis. area knows that Kewpee has the best hamburgers in the world...

I pass by the one in Lansing all the time when I go to the gym, but have yet to actually go in there. It's right next to a Jimmy Johns, so that might be a factor.

Our local paper makes the Fark headlines again.
Rose O'Neill is a friend of mine's great/great? aunt I believe. He has a ton of Kewpie dolls, prints, books, etc. A few years ago he had some Kewpie serving trays made overseas. When they got stateside Customs held them for copyright violations. He asked customs who "owned" the Kewpie name. Apparently no one did and him & his sister were declared the two living heirs to the name. IIRC, Customs had to pay him a hefty sum for holding the goods without proper cause.
He always goes to the Bonniebrook shindig every year and wheels & deals with Kewpie people from all over the world.
