The Barbie I know, I know

Overheard at the Water Cooler:

"Did you see that Barbie commercial?"

"..."

"Barbie has a cat now."

"Really? That's neat!"

"Yeah. It's a persian-looking cat, with long white fur."

"Of course."

"But that's not all. Barbie can feed the cat. And when the cat is full, it goes to its Barbie litterbox and pees."

"What?"

"In the commercial, you see the cat being squeezed in the litterbox -- that's how it pees! And then Barbie can clean out the litterbox too."

"Why would Barbie ever do that?"

"What you mean?"

"The Barbie I know would never touch a litterbox. She would get grains of litter under her nails! The Barbie I know is a Princess, with her gold lame purse and white boogie booties. All she does is party, hang out with Ken, and cruise around in her Corvette. She certainly does not clean out litterboxes, let alone make her cat pee!"

"Barbie's entering a new era."

"It's blasphemous! Barbie must have been axed from her high-powered, sit-around-and-look-pretty job. That's the only reason why Barbie would clean her cat's litter!"

"You're really upset about this."

"Next thing you know they'll come out with a Barbie dog that she has to stoop and scoop!"
