Pissed? Grab a hammer and get in line.
Posted by breadwinner on February 17th, 2009Did you recently lose all your money in a $50 billion dollar Ponzi scheme? If you answered yes, there’s definitely something for you at this year’s Toy Fair at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York City. It’s a bobble head-sized little Bernie Madoff in a red devil suit, and it’s intention is to be smashed to bits by your money-less hands.
“The $99, red-suited, pitchfork-wielding figure comes with a golden hammer.” I wonder if the rest of the 25 are next…
Watch out Mozilo.
Yeah. Like a Tickle Me Elmo for grown ups. Poor, poor grown ups. Slap Me Bernie or Pummel Me Madoff perhaps. Makes sense as the most popular items at the 2009 Toy Fair are “interactive” ones. It’s very “interactive” to smash the hell out of a little devil with a hammer. But let me ask you, if you lost a shit-ton of money in the stock market, would you really be willing to cough up $99 just to feel a little bit better? I mean, I guess these two can still afford it.
I don’t know who this guy is, but I like him.
