And she was...

Oh...BABY!

I know the world is changing rapidly and that I am becoming the over 30 person my younger self swore never to trust. I know this because I'm increasingly horrified by what is available on the internet. An 18 year-old friend introduced me to My Space...SCARY! But then, in surfing for FloraFloraFlora's upcoming baby shower I found this. Really? Are there people out there just dying for a skull fleece baby hoodie? Is grandma hoping to purchase a Guns N' Roses thermal onesie? I'm sure every baby needs a Ramones bib?????

Wait...maybe I'm not so old and crotchety...I think the rosebud needs Converse All-Star Baby High Tops!!!

    Ok, I have to admit that the skull fleece hoodie is awesome! I completely want one for the Wild Boy!

    I know. I'm warming up to the concept of the individual items but not the "I need baby clothes let's shop at Hot Topic" mentality.

    Plus, I keep hearing Jim Gaffigan's voice in my head doing the "Hot Pockets" theme but saying "Hot Topic".

    I've gone mental.

    It's a different context, but I do the same thing. In my head I've changed Dr. Evil's line to "Would you like a Hot Topic?"

    I would say those likely to buy baby clothes at Hot Topic are likely there for other errands (two for one free piercings?) and happen to see the baby clothes. Then they think, "Hey, my skanky 19 year old friend is knocked up. Let's get the kid a Ramones bib."

    Word verification: Iwwkckno -- The International Workers of the World (IWW) are kicking it no more. (Socialism is dead in America.)
