i’m with bart on this one. this hello kitty stuff is starting to get to me. here’s what happened to me yesterday.
after battling traffic for an hour i arrive home after a long day at the office. sure, it’s a work-a-day life i lead but i’m not complaining. i have a good job and i like it. i’m greeted in the drive way by thing 1 and thing 2. red faced from the heat they scamper away back to their important work of running through the sprinkler. on the deck, i kiss the wife and baby. things are good.
i walk into the house and right there on the kitchen table the thing is looking directly at me. i move left, it’s still looking at me. i step to the right, same deal.
they say the sound of my head hitting the hard wood floor was sickeningly loud. as i lay there staring at the ceiling, unable to move, i wondered if it was possible --- had the hello kitty’s had somehow scaled the aw walls and escaped the confines of the internet? or maybe the aw hello kitty patrol has a much wider influence that we could ever imagine?
after i came around, my wife explained to me that mcdonalds was giving out hello kitty toys with happy meals. at which point i fainted (again) at the thought of my kids eating happy meals.
