If you’d like your own doll-to-doll carpeting, hunt up a pair of these he-man Mr. Leggs slacks. Such as our new automatic wash wear blend of 65% “Dacron®” and 35% rayon–incomparably wrinkle-resistant. About $12.95 at plush-carpeted stores. </i></p></blockquote><p><br />[<a href="http://makethelogobigger.blogspot.com/2007/04/blast-from-past.html" target="_blank">Make the Logo Bigger</a> via <a href="http://www.boingboing.net/2008/05/12/creepy-slacks-ad-fro.html" target="_blank">BoingBoing</a>] <br /></p><img src="http://www.nerve.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=93669" width="1" height="1">advertisementssexismslackspants
