![]() Is it because they have dangerous parts that may be ingested by children young children?Possibly. Choose the answer that most appeals to you and then we’ll move on. Ugly dolls specifically designed to be repeatedly slammed on a hard surface whilst the owner yells Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!īut here’s my question…Why are these dolls only meant for use by adults? Please help me to understand this by taking a quick poll. Quite brilliant, don’t you think? A collection of dolls made for solely for the purpose of releasing adult’s frustration in an ‘appropriate’ manner. My eyes were immediately drawn to a large label sewn on the front. ![]() I was intrigued and picked up one of these most unfortunate looking dolls for a closer inspection. Even the ‘Made in China’ is in small print, so they must be wholly committed to getting you to read the NOT A TOY message before you read anything else. They must be serious because it is printed in BOLD writing. No, these dolls are clearly not meant for children because the attached tag states, Not the usual smiling, cutesy dollies we all buy for our children. Not the sort of doll that you would want to cuddle. There they were, a collection of dolls made for frustrated people just like me…and you. I just couldn’t believe my eyes and I just had to go in and take a look. The other day we passed a store and right there in the window we spotted a basket full of ‘Dammit Dolls.’ Yip you read that right, Dammit Dolls. Admittedly there are occasions where Dammit just doesn’t do it for me and my Shit flies out, but for the most part, I’m pretty darn good with Dammit. But still, I try hard, really hard to sub in Dammit for Shit whenever I can. I know, I know, there is nothing particularly charming about that word either, in fact for some of you it may seem even more odious than my previously mentioned Shit. Ordinarily, I would go with ‘Shit’ but given my professional designation and my public commitment to being a responsible parent, I have put that word on hold and have replaced it with ‘Dammit.’ That one little word is my substitute for so many other offensive expletives. Go on, admit it you have it in your head right now! We all have a favourite word, don’t even begin to deny it. Sometimes you manage to restrain yourself and keep it in your head and other times it flies straight out of your mouth before you have time to stop it. Some call it cussing, some call it swearing but it all amounts to the same thing. We all have days when things just don’t seem to go our way.įrustration builds and before you know it you find yourself cursing.
