What Did You Get?

Rosa Golijan — Fri, 25 Dec 2009 18:00:00 EST

Santa's come and gone, and the wrapping paper's been shredded to pieces. Now we wanna know what you got. Did you find everything your heart desired under the tree or were there only lumps of coal waiting?

While there were many pleasant surprises, I can tell you that I most definitely did not get everything I wanted this year. (Unless one of you kidnapped Tony Stark, left him wearing nothing but a bow, and sneaked him under my tree in the past hour, that is.)

Pooping Robot Dolls Are the Hot Kids Toys of 2008

Sean Fallon — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 14:00:00 EST

According to the Washington Post, realistic pooping dolls are a must-have item this holiday season. Man, I can't wait to have kids.

Dolls like "Baby Alive" come with special "green beans" and "bananas" that can be fed to the doll, "digested" and "defecated." To enhance the fun, Baby Alive occasionally poops prematurely creating a lifelike mess for you to clean up. Awesome right? Then there is the "Little Mommy Real Loving Baby Gotta Go Doll" with over 60 realistic phrases and fun sounds. It comes complete with a magic toilet that must be flushed after each use.

Curiously, the "I Crapped My Pants Doll" was left off the list. I mean, those other dolls cost over $40 while the pants crapper can be had for only $9. Now that's what I call value. Unfortunately, I can't promise that your child won't cry and curse your name if you purchase this as a Christmas gift. [Washington Post and Funny Outlet]

Victoria's Secret Hocks $6.5 Million Bra, Babe Not Included

Charlie White — Mon, 16 Oct 2006 10:39:17 EDT

Because of our No Bra Left Behind policy here at the Giz, we're compelled to show you this year's fantasy getup from Victoria's Secret, this time tipping the bank account south by $6.5 million. The Hearts on Fire Diamond Fantasy Bra has a total of 800 carats—more than 2000 round diamonds—spread out across both breasts and on the straps, and a 10-carat diamond brooch right there in that sweet spot between those mountains of love.

We'd rather get up close and personal with that babe wearing the bra, lovely supermodel Karolina Kurvoka, than the absurd garment itself. But if you find yourself coming up short of cash for one of these bejeweled brassieres this Christmas, perhaps that $1.89 million solid gold bra would be more in your price range. – Charlie White
