Bad Toys


On the left, a bad toy idea back in 1954.
On the right, a really bad toy idea from 2007.

The kid's pole dancing kit is no joke. It was marketed to 7 year-olds in the UK by Tesco with the following copy: "Unleash the sex kitten inside...simply extend the Peekaboo pole inside the tube, slip on the sexy tunes and away you go! Soon you'll be flaunting it to the world and earning a fortune in Peekaboo Dance Dollars".

Stupidity spans the generations, I guess.
