Actually what is a big deal is that people are picking her fashion choices apart in an effort to put her in her place and she’s.not.havin’it. Also I’m fairly certain she can multi-task like a mofo. AND she was just sworn in yester-day, but I’m sure gurl has been working since she was elected ...OMT, for the love of…

She literally just started her job and you're complaining that she hasn't done anything yet. That's just dumb
Impugning the good name of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
When the kids were finally in stores again, I got one. It was a bald brown one. I loved it and so did my kid because it was the only brown one. Eventually she ended with about 8 of them because of my mis-placed divorced single mom guilt. When she was a teen and hadn’t looked at them in years I gave them all away to a…
Yep. He was buying the dolls from Nelson (who thought he was a collector) and selling them in his store at a considerable markup. When she found out, she confronted him at an art fair and refused to sell anymore dolls to him.
Roberts then sent one of remaining dolls over to Hong Kong factor that dissected the doll and…

Just a side note/main note into the history of Cabbage Patch Kids. Xavier Roberts ripped of the dolls from the Kentucky folk artist Martha Nelson. Roberts was not an artist. Just a businessman that saw an opportunity and never compensated/acknowledged the real talent for her work or ideas.
My first cabbage patch was the only one left on the shelf at the store, probably because she was a black doll in an extremely white suburb of my city. She was one of the preemies with a little tuft of hair on an otherwise bald head, so I basically won the cabbage patch lottery. Both kids and adults made comments about…
This is how my mom got mine! Sort of. She taught school and one of the janitors approached her and said that his brother worked at a large toy store and if she was willing to pay in cash, she could get a cabbage patch doll. I distinctly remember my mom taking us after school that day, we drove behind the toy store and…
I think I was just a tad too young to really want a cabbage patch doll, but my mom and dad both grew up really poor, my mother’s parents couldn’t afford to buy their kids a hula-hoop, eating cabbage soup like Charlie Bucket poor, so I think my mom just went a bit nuts with having a good job that paid well when I was…
I’m curious to see what happens at tax return time. We may already be in the market correction looking at some of the most popular stocks.
Man, Thanksgiving is gonna be awkward as hell in a couple weeks.
Honestly. This man has publicly expressed a desire to shoot his sister in the face. How? How? HOW? is it that he is still able to legally own a fucking gun? I’m starting to think this whole “responsible gun owner” thing is a myth . . .
