Okay, so I'm guessing you've all seen the announcement about the new political plushies? User Image

What does the GIB think?

I think its pretty funny, definitely. But here's the problem:

In 1 week, one of these items is going to become horribly outdated.
Whoever wins, their face will be good for 4-8 years. But the loser?
Why didn't they release these sooner?

Personally, I'd like a donkie, just as a matter of Democrat Pride. I'd never dress up as Obama--I'd rather we had a celebrity-date style obama that could hang out with my avatar. User Image

i think its cool.
they should be 1 stage evolving items.
one into a presidential figure standing behind you
the other a crying figure sobbing behind you.

Yeah, the masks are pretty funny right now and there's a lot of weird s**t you could do with them, but I'd much prefer to have Obama standing next to me or something. I want that donkey!! He's so cute and... democratic :3 <3

I think it will breed a whole new group of trolls.
That and people will get harassed.
Because let's face it.

The thing is, they're way too expensive to be used by trolls. They'd just get banned, and have to go buy a new one...

Yeah but...don't most trolls just expect to be re-banned due to their trolling?

I'm just going to say it, I nearly whacked my soda right off the desk after laughing so hard at the GCD's reaction to it. The forum's flooded with threads like, "O GAWD REL LYF POLETYKZ!1 RUUUUNN!!!111ONE!"

It's very fun to watch the entire forum fly off it's railing like this.

I'm not real sure if I like it or not. This must be making the ED go crazy right now in the politics forums.

I feel as if watching you gobsmack your beverage would also have been quite funny.
