"They should be burned"

Yep, we stopped living in a free country and are stuck into some horrible dystopian future.

The dolls shouldn't be rated for children.

Nuff said.

I expected Chu Dat Chronicles reposting.

I only see a doll who is speaking the truth.

 

[M!nt]

lol at wanting the toys burned.

Only fitting that the last lady in the video gets muted

The rating's to do with physical safety, not what it says.

Now I want to know what the hell you are talking about.

However, there is no warning. We have the ESRB which ensures we know what our children are playing in other mediums, but not here. Is that ok?

As a matter of fact, it isn't.

But seriously, I really wish I could hear a direct recording of what the doll says. I wonder if it's just a case of poor recording + people hearing what they want. It's really easy to misunderstand toys sometimes. When I was a kid I had a toy that said "Get real" but it really sounded like "Pick me up", so much that if I tried to hear "Pick me up", that's exactly what I would hear.

Of course it's also possible that some dude in a factory decided he would have a laugh by trollin' some parents. I'd like to think this is what's going on, cause it would be so much more amusing.

And I thought the cussing teletubby doll from back in the day was bad...

It sounds pretty unintentional, but I do agree that it does sound like it is curses.

That toy must have had a really heavy accent for those two phrases to sound anything close to each other, but in this case, the babbling comes out sounding like something in between "beach" and "*****". I think that they're exaggerating the part about it saying "crazy", though.

Obv we should burn these dolls I agree with that mother

 

[Anthon1996]

That woman's eyes at the end.

This wasn't banned...

There's no book rating system, do we need one for dolls?

Certain books are geared toward certain audiences by people in charge of critiquing books.

So yes.

I'm going to hazard a guess that the doll didn't utter the profane word outright, but instead spoke a gibberish that somehow managed to sound like said profane word to the ears of many conservative mothers. I'll be honest, I probably wouldn't have noticed the way the "word" sounded had I not even seen this article.
