I have to post about this

In California we found this toy at WalMart. It's a caterpillar with letters on his feet. You touch a foot and he say's the letter. Simple enough. Well the one we saw was in Spanish and when you pushed the letter J it said what sounded like a bad word in Spanish. We thought it was hilarious and are drawn to the toy everytime we see it.

So today we were in Target and saw the Caterpillar. Josh turned it to the phonetic selection and started screwing around (which means trying to make it say bad words). Turns out Leap-Frog had enough complaints to put out a new caterpillar that won't let you do this. Instead of saying the last sound that would complete the bad word it say's "hee hee, that tickles." and then makes the sound.

Here's a few of what we tried and what we heard:

Suck - ss uh hee hee that tickles cuh

Ass - aa hee hee that tickles ss

Dick - duh ih hee hee that tickles cuh

well you get the idea. I thought it was quite hilarious and wanted to buy it just so I could find the ONE WORD they missed. I was vetoed though. Da-hee hee that tickles-mn.

So I went to find Kaitlyn's caterpillar but Kyle said it only had the numbers on it! I'm sure you could figure out something to do with that too!
