1. Isn't it great that those dolls were reintroduced to today's to-be psychos?
It's 1985 - the only thing good from that decade was the music, and even then only the first 5 years had anything *good*...


BTW:



Too damn freaky for words...

6. Not to be a pev, but isn't that girl a little old
to be carrying around a cabbagehead doll? I mean, she appears to be developing breasts (the girl, not the doll).

And what is it with the one photo where the doll appears to be looming over the girl's shoulder? SPOOKY!! :scared:

24. actually Cabbage patch kids WERE the inspiration for Chucky
I sent that picture to my sister 2 days ago, that site is a trip.

Today's top picture scares me more:


WTH!

15. Y'know, prefacing that observation with "not to be a pev"...
... doesn't make your comment any less creepy. But, more on point, the development of some secondary sexual traits in pre-adolescents isn't necessarily a sign of social or emotional maturity. Cabbage patch dolls were big with the 10-13 year old set back when they first came out; and we don't really know how old that picture is.

Of course the cabbage patch doll poses might just be intentional irony on the girl's part (or the photographer's); hence the enigmatic ax-murderer smile on her face.

29. 10-13? I had no idea. I do remember when those dolls were
popular, back around 1984 I believe. I thought they were ugly as all get-out and was surprised to find out that they were considered collector items!

16. Don't be prejudiced.
Obviously the Pattersons consider their HAL 3000 to be part of the family. It's not like in the old days when they didn't let 'droids into any of the good cantinas.

27. Clearly this little boy
was just hoping that the photo session would be over quickly and he could find a bathroom. He also probably thought it was just a headshot and no one was ever going to notice anything amiss......
