First There Was Bad Idea Jeans - Now Comes Bad Idea Lingerie

[jamesq]

Miley Cyrus' 9-year-old sister launching a lingerie line for kids.

While the pictures are border-line safe for work, they are most definitely Not Safe For Your Sanity. You have been warned.

I hope this is a hoax, but if it's not let's enumerate all the ways this is a BAD IDEA:

• It's lingerie for kids.
  
• This bears repeating: It's lingerie for kids. Lingerie - you know, the clothing who's only purpose is sexual enticement.
  
• Somebody had to conceive of this idea. They didn't immediately throw up in their mouth.
  
• Somebody else had to approve this idea.
  
• In fact, lots of people had to approve this idea - they had to approve it, and design the prototypes, and test market it, and get celebrity endorsements for it, and convince distributors and stores to carry it.
  
• Speaking of celebrities, Billy-Ray Cyrus allowed his 9-year old daughter to be associated with it. It's not like she can legally enter into an endorsement contract herself.
  
• People are going to buy this.

Seriously WTF is wrong with you people.

Remember folks, the only measure for success is money. If you can make money off something, you should make money off of it. Ethics, good sense and risk assessment should never stop you.

I think if making cancer contagious and airborn would improve a corporation's next quarterly profit statement we'd all be dead inside of two years.

Well, you're a mommy now, so you're going to get a double dose of my own repulsion. for me it's academic, for you it's personal. garething has to struggle with this every day since his daughter is in the target demographic. On the bright side, she seems to be fairly level-headed.

As for the pictures on my computer, they're all consenting adults.
