they don’t make toys like they used to

so…I’ve already mentioned that I’m worried about some of the stuffed animals that Samson has in his room. Drug-dealing and undead stuffed animals have nothing on the scene in toy land this past weekend:

Sammy vs the rabid, red puppy

What is that seemingly sweet Snuggle Puppy doing to Samson!? Apparently, we caught a shakedown in action. The problem is that Sammy is young and easily distracted by the mirrors on the puppy’s paws — damn stuffed animals preying on my son!
I know of at least one other kid with this dog and I have never heard of such behavior!

Something strange is afoot...

What the hell is Buzz doing to the Rabid, Red Snuggle Puppy?!

Now, the funny thing about Buzz is that he’s actually a bee (according to Alisa) — we thought it was a weird spider-thing because once you become a parent you lose the ability to count any higher than your child, and we missed the fact that the “spider” only had 6 legs. So, Buzz is an insanely psychedelic bee — keep in mind that if I saw a bee that looked like that I would move out of the state, buuuutt, we put it in Sammy’s crib all the time (parent of the year nominee right here!). The kicker is that no matter where Buzz is in the crib he always ends up next to Sammy, or on Sammy, or Sammy ends up with his arm though the rings on Buzz’s arm. I haven’t been able to get photographic proof — only because you can’t photograph pure evil — but I’m trying.

What the hell is wrong with toys these days!?

    That first picture is hilarious. Sammy looks petrified.

    You ain’t seen nothing yet. Wait until you get the radio controlled ones and the ones that talk. Now that’s pure evil. Tonight Keegan’s workshop told him that “screws hold things together.” What kind of life lesson is that?
