Having "regular" and "women's" is still kinda a problem. :shrug: If the sizing on flexible foam ear plugs is meaningful, then I assume petite dudes won't feel great about lady branded ones and would prefer that they were just divided by size rather than gender.

Or a same-gendered friend who just prefers the designs of those shoes... It's not like men's and women's slip-on shoes are any different apart from having different sizing scales.

Men's shoes are wider, usually.

I'm AFAB but I've known since I was fifteen that I have more luck finding comfortable shoes in the men's section than the women's. Sometimes I get lucky in the women's, depends a lot on the brand that particular store tends to stock, but mostly they're all too narrow to be comfortable, and I'm at the upper end of "normal" women's shoe sizes so selection is limited.

Once a clerk in Payless got very agitated about me looking at men's shoes and kept trying to steer me away. I have no idea why she cared.

Is the satan tire meant to convey that the tires are as fast as the devil/dickens/heck/gently caress? Or possibly some other attribute but same idea.

Speaking of Satan...

Remember the movie Jennifer's Body, where Megan Fox got possessed by a demon? It had a fairly iconic scene where she holds a lighter up to her tongue and doesn't feel the pain from it before proclaiming herself to be a god...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVIsqHrME68&t=73s

Whoever runs the social media for Bratz dolls is going to get a talking to tomorrow, I think. It's maaaybe not the best idea to be recreating that scene in the Bratz style and posting it on their Twitter.

My pee pap was always saying something was "hotter than an impregnated goblin". He was one of the first anime fans.

Last time I saw these I, if I remember right, "impregnerad" in this time period and context would mean fireproofed. So, correctly translated it would be something like "Gnomey’s Safety Matches."

That being said Impregnated Goblin is definitely catchier.

Have Bratz been around long enough for there to be doll collectors? Do you think they’re going for a slight nostalgia angle? I’d think you’d see this from Monster High instead, their whole deal (at least years ago) is monster teens, there’s even a fire elemental kid.

It'd definitely be more popular nowadays.

I don't need any confirmation if that is the case. I know how the Internet works enough that it would have to be.
