    ILLEGAL ALIEN BARBIE?

    JAN 7, 2015 @ 6:29 PM

    Isn't satire supposed to be funny?

    Satirical "Illegal Immigrant" Barbie Is Really Stupid, Not Funny

    Barbie has gone through many a transformation through the years, and now, she's apparently going through another one.

    Comedy and humor website Points in Case has published its own take on how Mattel could update Barbie for the 21st century by imagining what an "Illegal Immigrant" Barbie (along with "Rehab" Barbie, "Facebook" Barbie, and "Lesbian" Barbie) would look like:

    Worth1000
    "Illegal immigrant Barbie is tethered to a bunch of children and comes with a compass and a coyote. Her hair is unkempt and her cheeks lack the rosy glow of the 20th century Barbies," author Janet Eve Josselyn writes. "She is armed with wire cutters and sandwiches wrapped in tin foil. She clutches Ken's phone number in the event that she is detained by the Border Patrol."

    Oh, that's funny — she's just an "illegal alien" who sneaked over the border to have a bunch of anchor babies and take jobs from hard-working Americans! No one has ever made that joke before ever, in the history of jokes. Except that, yes, people make jokes like that all the time about immigrants. Elected officials have even gotten in on the act, with politicians like Steve King introducing legislation to stop granting citizenship to children of immigrants, whom he's called "anchor babies."

    I'm not arguing that I think joking about immigration should be off-limits, but hasn't anyone ever heard of the saying, "You can punch up, but you can't punch down?" Poking fun at people or groups who are in power can be funny and harmless preciselybecause they're not part of a marginalized group of people who are often subject to systemic discrimination. Or make fun of the system! (The U.S. immigration system is really complicated.) But joking at the expense of immigrants, many of whom are brought to the U.S. as children only to find themselves in permanent political and legal limbo, is old and tired and harmful and not funny.

    Feel free to joke about immigration. Just get better, smarter jokes.

    Six New Barbie Dolls That Reflect 21st Century Women


    Barbie is doing more these days, like coke, taking selfies, and throwing her heels at Ken.


    By Janet Eve Josselyn / Jan 5, 2015




    The Barbie doll is an icon, a role model, and a reflection of women through many decades. Since Barbie's introduction in 1959, Mattel has repeatedly attempted to modernize Barbie's fashion and career choices. Once relegated to girlfriend status and domestic housework, Barbie has evolved into a modern woman who has pursued many jobs and professions, such as Architect Barbie and Doctor Barbie. Mattel has not made much effort, however, to bring Barbie into the 21st century. These new Barbie dolls will provide girls with contemporary alternatives to existing Barbie dolls.

    1. Rehab Barbie



    Barbie is definitely not one to miss a growing trend!

    Rehab Barbie is off to rehab with a hot pink valise and a journal in which to write her innermost thoughts about why she enjoys diet pills and booze so much.

    She has her plastic fingers crossed that a very famous starlet (who also likes mind-altering substances in excess) will be her roommate! And it's a much needed break from Ken's mind-numbing lack of testosterone.


    2. Facebook Barbie


    Barbie needs to keep in touch with her 500 million Facebook friends so Facebook Barbie spends a lot of time catching up with her peeps and posting food-porn pictures of desserts she will never eat. But mostly she loves posting pictures of herself. Anywhere. Anytime.

    In this outfit or that outfit. Facebook Barbie posts copious pictures of herself and Ken in front of famous sites around the world so everyone will know that Barbie isn't stuck at home doing housework anymore.


    3. Xbox Barbie


    Barbie enjoys killing aliens, mutants and creatures from the future as much as any adolescent boy and she has the thumb-dexterity to prove it. Barbie plays online under the gamertag "Barbie's Boobs" and her gamer icon is a busty blond not unlike herself. Team-up with Barbie for an over-the-top kill ratio!

    4. Hot Flash Barbie


    Hot Flash Barbie sports plastic sweat beads on her brow and a big old spare tire of belly fat to accompany her saggy fanny. Hot Flash Barbie enjoys swearing at Ken and speaking her mind about how much those damned high heels hurt her feet, year after year after year. Hot Flash Barbie's little plastic fingers grip a martini glass and big bottle of vodka, as accessories.

    5. Illegal Immigrant Barbie


    Illegal immigrant Barbie is tethered to a bunch of children and comes with a compass and a coyote. Her hair is unkempt and her cheeks lack the rosy glow of the 20th century Barbies. She is armed with wire cutters and sandwiches wrapped in tin foil.She clutches Ken's phone number in the event that she is detained by the Border Patrol.

    6. Lesbian Barbie


    Lesbian Barbie has finally ejected Ken from her life and replaced him with Kendall, who sports short hair and walks with a confident swagger. Lesbian Barbie has burned her push-up bra and thrown out her high heels in favor of baggy dark clothing and military-style boots. Barbie and Kendall get around town on a pink Harley-Davidson with lots of LGBT decals.

    Welcome to the 21st century, all of you new modern Barbies! We look forward to many more Barbies in the coming years to provide children with role models they can relate to in the wonderful world they live in. We all look forward to Terrorist Barbie who will arrive in stores for the holiday season!
