Jersey Barbie

In keeping with the present given to me by Leslie (have ya’ll seen this video yet?) I am sticking with a Jersey Theme for today: because I need to laugh and because I Love New Jersey.

BTW: Whoever wrote this is hysterical!!

Mattel recently announced the release of limited-edition Barbie Dolls for the New Jersey market:

  3. Lee says:

    Given the number of “Garden State” license plates I see around here, I think most of the New Jersey Barbies are in the process of moving to North Carolina.

    Very funny!

  13. Andrew says:

    Hah! Damn funny and really well done! Though now I”m a bit worried, as we’re planning on moving from NY to NJ later this year… although now I can easily rule out a few areas!

  14. someGirl says:

    Oh Dirty Jersey, how you made me laugh.

    So I guess you should have had “What kind of Jesey Barbie are you” quiz instead of the mythological creature one. 🙂

    Andrew:

  16. Jodi says:

    Oh MY!
    Laughing my ass off! You slay me…The Diva(the 6 yr old) picked out a Barbie, which shocked me as she has never shown any interest…and she picked the pregnant one. Of course she comes home with it and daddy has to help her open it…and he went on this little diddy about single Barbie…

    Too rich…funny!

  19. Choices choices choices…do we go with Sussex County..Winfield Park..or Keansburg…what’s a redneck to do…???>>>>>>>>>:)))))))))))

  20. HAHA! We had this same email circulate around my neck of the woods – just the names of the neighborhoods were changed….but isn’t it nice to know that no matter where you go, there’s basically the same shitty/weird/messed-up people/neighborhoods?!?
