And pass that preggers doll over here?
Wal-Mart also has been sued for what they do to formerly pregnant email shoppers. Lactating at Wal-Mart is a no no.

I read your review on pregnant Barbie but then went on vacation. It is amazing (well, I guess nothing should amaze me at this point) that you got hate mail over your opinion. I think people do forget that these reviews are supposed to be about our opinions and if someone doesn't agree, they need to write their own. Having said that..well maybe I'll just leave that alone - I'm tired of having to delete my comments for fear they'll show up elsewhere. I must admit I edit them for content. Don't think there is anything in this one that can be too offensive to anyone. jo

You ba-a-ad, ba-a-ad girl. Congratulations, you've passed your initiation. (Extra points for doing it "with glee.") Here's your ceremonial dunce cap. Wear it with honor...
["So in a nutshell, thats why Im quitting Epinions of course its nor quitting in the traditional sense of the word. Im not quitting as in never reading, rating and writing again (although some might find that the more favorable alternative). Its more like quitting the way I use to be and embracing the Epinioner I want to be sort of like taking of my bra and dancing naked in the forest (so ok thats a scary visual after 4 kids, but you get the idea)."]

You can't go, at least not until you review Bag Lady Barbie. She come with her own shopping cart full of those ever so important essentials like whiskey bottles, ripped sweaters and a couple of bags of trash. Sorry, I can't tell ya more, gotta go get mine before they all sell out! ~teehee~ Can't wait for Preggo Barbie to visit me! I'll be waiting. Smiles, Char

Thank you (Reply to this comment)
by pluckyduck
Dear Nancy,
My mother taught me that it was polite to write thank you notes when someone has done something nice for me. I've had trouble picking up on this lesson because I never had a Thank You Barbie, complete with personalized stationery, to show me the way. [i]However[/i], now that you are responsible for having Barbies removed from Wal-mart's shelves, I may never have the opportunity to purchase a Thank You Barbie, and will have to learn on my own.
Here goes:
Thank you very much for posting your review of Pregant Midge. Thank you for stumbling into attention for the posting of same. I get very tired of reading Cookie Cutter reviews on Epinions.com that go into describing and detailing the most minute details that no one could possibly give a rat's tush about. I am now hopeful that your excellent review and acclaim for same will herald a new era where Barbie and the like can be trashed or complimented free form.
Sincerely,
Andrea

You said a mouthful here (Reply to this comment)
by bonniesayers
Wow this is impressive with the non member hits, never know in another month or two you might make a few bucks on that one.
I have not looked at the comments but now say I have to shoot over to that review. Hate mail, who knew they were out there...

Well, real sorry to hear you are leaving Epinions. We will miss you. Don't let the door hit you in the buttocks as you leave...

'. . .what's that?, she's not leaving ?? '
But she said she was, right there at the top of the epinion!
.
.
.
.
'. . .at the bottom, she's "not really quitting" ??'
Well, h*ll, I quit reading a long time before that......dang long essays...:-!
.

Well, hey ned, glad to hear you are going to hang around after all. Gotta get my 'Barbie' fix somewhere.
Just no "dancing naked" through the advice/writer's corner areas, OK ??

I got Barbie Pregnant on the top shelf! (Reply to this comment)
by cr01
There!! topped that!
Seriously, really enjoyed your last review which I think is the first one I have read (sorry).
I wrote about a dodgy beer and wine warehouse in France, the CEO of which took the trouble to sign up to Epinions purely to comment on my review, but no, nothing as dramatic as your experience.
Sorry to hear that you have been hounded by e-mails as a result of your last review, and even more sorry to hear that yet another long established epinionator is considering winding down... although I'm sure from your later words you will still hang around.
Thanks for sharing, it's easy to forget the power of Epinions!!!

Re: You better not quit (Reply to this comment)
by ned1
heck no - I have one of them on order and I just bought the Alan & Ryan set - I have plenty of Barbie dolls to keep me busy. Oops, not to mention the fruit Barbie dolls I just bought - I think they are brand new and very stupid - got them at Target, but I'm not sure there is a link to them anywhere.
