More pictures of Alice Dollen! She is, in fact, wearing slippers, since someone asked. And the date on her card says only "2009," woe.

(OMG YOU GUYS! THE YELLOW BARBIE CORVETTE I HAD AS A KID! omg. We gave all our Barbie stuff away when I was in college and my sister was in her early teens. If I went out and bought another one for Alice, no matter how cheap, thereby bringing MOAR CLUTTER into the house, my mother would kill me.)

I'm sorry to spam you but I just read the "Fling" candy bar thing and the comments are hilarious:

I read this as "flying candy bar". Very disappointing to read that they haven't started manufacturing flying pink candy with sparkles. It would be like eating a My Little Pony.

me too! I was wondering if they had wings or some shit and if one had to jump very high to get them, because they are FLYING through the store.

It would be like those Three Musketeers commercials where the women gape as the candy just floats away from them.

Ha! I did too and was so confused when the issue of glitter came up, making me wonder if my aversion to glitter is why I lack the power of flight.

I read it as "The F'ing Candy Bar" and thought I'd definitely eat something called an "F'ing Candy Bar"...but not this b.s.

I prefer Men's Pocky to fulfill my strangely gendered candy needs.

I just realized in the past few months that they sell gendered pocky sticks. WTF? It just makes me feel cannibalistic.

Ha! For my Japanese candy needs, I've always turned to "Crunky" - which I'm sure would be the official candy of Lil Jon if he knew about it.

Even though I am a lifelong devotee of Botan Rice Candy, i have never tried Pocky. Now that I know I can actually offend people by eating pocky of the wrong gender, I'm looking for it!

I buy After Eight mints and eat them before 8. It makes me feel oh-so-rebellious and naughty.

hey, thought: maybe the trick is that "your boyfriend doesn't have to know" because if he's rummaging around your purse for some candy, he won't be able to tell what it is.
