Project Pink 2: The Tinkering



So, back on April 1st, I posted about the bewildering array of pinkified boardgames one could find at WeBeToys'N'Sheeeet.

GUESS WHAT?!?!!?





"Pink, purple and green pieces inspire creative imaginations!"


I guess OTHER COLORS are confusing to girls!!
And yes, this is another TRU exclusive, just like the other pink crap.
I'm gonna go play with my non-pink Legos now...



EDIT: Just so we're clear, I don't actually have much of a problem with pink stuff.
I'm doing this purely for fun and mock outrage, and nothing more.
Lego has a pink theme called Belville and I don't rail against it.
Purple and green are fine colors and the Drazi think they're good enough to base a government on. :D
Heck, my Rubik's Snake (recently renamed Rubik's Twist) is purple and green, and I love it!
That said, I do find a couple of pink things objectionable, like for example the pinkified Game Of Life.
Now, I seem to remember the Game Of Life being a family game, meaning for the whole family.
Is there something wrong with it now that means making a special version of Life just for girls?
That just seems weird to me.
But hey, it's not important.
More pressing matters await our attention.

Ah, they make toys for me. ^_^ I'm Chaotic. Or quixotic. Haven't decided, yet. Don't worry, when I do, I'll be the first to know.
