I’m convinced this is one of the reasons I love the color pink. I remember as a kid, my grandpa and occasionally my dad getting so insecure about the prospect of wearing/one of their boys wearing pink. Even at that age, I thought it was absurd that a man would be scared of a color. Ironically, that makes pink the most badass, punk-rock color, in my head.
Yinz must not be old enough (or are so old you’re senile) to remember back when Pokémon first came out, the fuckstick that cut apart a pikachu plush with the church’s sword. (Not sure why a church needs a sword, but yeah…)
Faith so weak it can be jeopardised by a doll.

This is absolutely a brilliant post. You nailed it.

In their defense, a doll is an awful lot like an idol.
