Out with the Old in with the New

So...apparently they've gone and changed our childhood Jem! Taking her from sluts and glam to sleek and modern. I for one am outraged. Why take a good thing and change her? What kind of message is that sending our youths? Alls I gotta say is bitch better still have the light up earrings (by the looks of it she don't).

No really I guess this is a good thing. We've all evolved why shouldn't Jem do the same. Move with the times if you will. Jem’s come a long way from my grandparent’s playroom where she met her demise against my sissy’s head.

I’m more mad that when I Google “Jem” all the new 2012 dolls come up and not the vintage Jem we all grew up with. How am I supposed to avenge her death and have my sissy’s head forgive me now? Not to mention she’s being sold for well over $200! Bitch is too expensive. I don’t think so Jem. I don’t think so.

Say herro to our new buddies. Myself first sighted them at a local antique store that we frequent. I thought they were, obviously and unmistakably, interestingly adorable! So they have only one leg and their hair is messed up!? They are precious. They were ridiculously priced at a high $18 bucks a pop and I just didn’t have the monies to purchase them at that time. As you do, I took a picture of them and sent them to my sissy.

Weeks had passed and they hadn't escaped my thoughts. It’s like they were mine the moment I saw them. Not at all expected my sister went to the antique store last week and they were still there! So, she purchased them (on sale).  Big smiles all round. Friends and family say they’re creepy and make fun of their one leg as well as hair. We were told we spent too much for them and that the store should of paid us to take them. Still I love them and I'm so happy they’re home.
