something or other about "you can't touch this." It's also in poor taste, but I think what bothers me most about it is that while I have the vocal advantage, it's clearly the better dancer.

But I just can't imagine someone in management didn't stop it.
And why would Target ( and maybe others?) think this would be a good idea to sell this? Their buyers should have a modicum of - uh - restraint.

Maybe I missed something that said shit would be the new Rubik's cube.

He loves plunging toilets but this was too much for him. I actually had fun playing the game but it totally overstimulated him to a meltdown.

Funny, good intentions end of being a disaster. Such is life.

It was either that one or the pull my finger game.

Turned out to be his favorite gift.

that people have always been fascinated with defecation and anal preoccupations. (In this, Freud may have been right.) I remember a professor in college talking about shitting in a poetry class. Poetry! Who would write poems about feces? Apparently, he would.

Of course, the act does produce a positive emotional response....

We're a bizarre species.
