It’s Christmas, the time of year when everyone is shopping. I got this email the other day:
We were doing some xmas shopping today and stumbled upon this. I made a joke about the IV could be used in the Lance Playmobil set. Then I noticed the yellow bike and it was even funnier. The best part is what is written on the side of the vehicle.
I can’t make this stuff up.
Just what every kids wants for Christmas: A chance to win the Tour de France seven times and gain the undying devotion of likes of Sally Jenkins (she wrote, “for the life of me, I can’t find the competitive injustice in his seven Tour de France victories”).
I’m not sure if the choking hazard is the toy or reading Ms. Jenkin’s fanboy prose.
At least if yer choking, there’s help close at hand…
Look! He’s smiling. Must be great to get run over. Does it come with a cop to issue him a ticket? Did the car driver already leave the scene? It’s so realistic!
Is that Nurse Sally (Jenkins) in the bottom left corner of the picture? I can just imagine her saying to the Uniballer, “Did the bad Travis Tygart hurt my wittle Lance? Nurse Sally will make it better.” Slurp Slurp Gag Spew
Lance-“Ahhhh Sally, I always knew you were a swallower!”
Even the ambulance says Lance on the door and side.
