I'm sick and tired of these product "tie-ins".

Jurassic Park comes out and suddenly plastic dinosaurs show up in cereal boxes. Toy Story comes out and suddenly kids are clamoring for Buzz Lightyear alarm clocks.

It really annoys me. Even when I was a kid, I never liked Disney characters and I thought "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" was a stupid movie.

Minions are creepy. Children can’t express themselves now. Can you imagine thousands of them aping a minion?

Hernandez said she heard, "What the F-," (expletive) followed by "All be damned."
How long before this family sues because they were deeply offended?

Saw a commercial last night with some basketball player and Minion Bob (it was on his shirt), and I swear I heard the Minion say “Fuh que” when the player handed him a basketball. Maybe that was supposed to be Thank You in Minionese, but that’s not what I heard.

Obviously this family is against free sexual expression and is hellophobic.

Sound like this may be a future Collector’s Item. I MAY even BUY a “Happy Meal” to get one.

Yanks are ticked off with the crows in Australia because when they caw they sound like they’re saying the “F” word.

Does anyone think the Chinese works building these what ever the hell they are, have any idea what the recording says? So kinda like 21st century legislation, you have to buy it in order to find out what is in it.

When the gibberish rattles, people will hear what’s in their own head.

These offended adults don’t seem to realise that it is their own mind making connections to common phraseology they expect to hear.

The problem is likely not the toys, but the adults.

The little girl's grandmother thought Julissa said it at first. "She said, 'no that wasn't me, that's the minion, that's the toy,'"

Come on, grandma, it was the KID! Stop blaming the toy and wash her mouth out with soap...

Can the voice be slowed down to hear what is actually saying?

Reminiscent of the flap about the Teletubby that allegedly repeated “faggot, faggot” about 15 years ago.

I had a client call me this week, mad as hell, over this. He got the toy and told me it was swearing and he wanted to sue.

Sort of related; I was kidding my 9 year old about how she used to love Barney and that she should watch it again. I expected the typical "ugh, that's for babies!" response but instead she surprised me. She said "Barney's not on TV anymore. He got arrested for saying the f-word on TV". Wait... whaaaaat?

Apparently this is considered "established fact" amongst the kids at her school.

That voice box was produced for after the 2012 presidential election but was accidentally put in the wrong toy.

Many years ago at the Food Bank I founded, we were given 30,000 children's talking books about a family of Teddy Bears that had been deemed unsalable that had been donated by a store chain for distribution as Christmas gifts for the needy children who's families came to us for food.

The books seemed nice and I could not figure out why they were unsalable until I turned to the last of twelve pages. . . and when you put the slider down to the location for that page and touched the button to hear what the book spoke for that page it said "HA, HA, HA, F*CK YOU!" quite clearly. A random check showed that very single one of them did the same thing.

I sent them to a land fill.
