Project Pink 2: The Tinkering

[zrath]

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.

Ha! Well, I've always said, "pink for boys and blue for girls" myself (as I sit at my distinxctively non-pink computer, wearing non-pink attire, eating non-pink macaroni).

No black Tinkertoys for goths? Mm...

Goths don't get toys, because Emo's steal all of theirs.

... Emo's don't get toys because they're suppose to die...

... so really, they don't make toys for you because Emo's die. That's really sad, when you think about it.

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.
