You've Got To Be Kidding

Child's Pimp Costume, $42.99.

Hilarious and yet... disturbing the longer I think about it. That boy doesn't seem to realize that he's a fleshmonger, not a flamboyant cowboy.

I came upon these while looking for a suitable Michael Jackson knockoff jacket, and I was compelled to look further. Thankfully the pimp costume was in the Unique section of children's costumes and not in the Career section.

Speaking of said section, WTF??? Take a look below. So the boys get realistic looking, feasible firefighter costumes but the girls can only wear the "uniform" with fishnets and heels? Gendered costuming/career expectations, or does the slutty Halloween costume thing just start earlier than I thought?

heres the link to the site if you're shopping for a wee one.

But there comes a time in every girl's life where, she has to give up her standards and values in order to better ride the harsh, crashing tides of life and reality. I may just be saying that because I'm in college, and I'm jaded, and losing touch with my sweet and innocent former self, but also because...




HOLY FUCKING SHIT THEY MADE NAPOLEON SEXY!

I mean, come on.

Now all I need is someone to dress up as a come-hither Robespierre and I'll be set.
