Did you ask for Karl? You have to ask for Karl.
omg this is so sad. she was 45" away, which she likely felt was safe from whatever stunt was planned. tragic misjudgment of the explosive force of gunpowder. i even feel sad for the unborn kid who now gets this story hung over them. damn.
(personally i think gender reveals and improvised explosives are both bad ideas, but this poor family…i can’t imagine.)
Going by the number of gender reveal balloons we blow up in my store, it looks like the fad has come and mostly gone, at least in Northern California.
Well, usually that refers to someone who killed themselves doing something foolish, not killing others doing something foolish.
Probably a Party City conspiracy to expand into a new market… Why sell for one party when you can sell goods for two parties!
I did notice my local one moved from part of a strip mall to their own stand alone building…
Hey now; don’t go blaming Party City, they already get plenty of revenue and free advertising from drag queens:
(The queen on the receiving end of that dis won S4 of RPDR.)
See! Clearly this is working!
Too bad about the competition for Halloween from those Halloween pop up stores…
I sort of feel like that’s some of the best advertising they can get…
Congratulations! It’s a beautiful healthy baby Crip!
Right?
Baby drag queens gotta start somewhere before they start pulling in the big booking fees…
well, some people throw a party at their house every weekend just because they can
if there’s supposedly a reason for it, and a theme, that’s just a bonus
I can’t understand why anyone would think their children are at all interesting to others.
I mean, not for a gender reveal, but never!?! I find that hard to believe.
It sits at the intersection of toxic masculinity and evolving concepts of fatherhood. Many men now feel permitted to feel feels, interact with their children healthfully and be generally supportive spouses, but pre-conceived gender dynamics mean the best way to do that is with explosives.
I mean, it’s progress, right?
This is definitely the stupid timeline:
This just in, stupid gender reveal stunts now stupid and lethal.
Can’t wait for Frito-Lay to release their Gender-Blasted Doritos.
If you see the blue flash, it’s a boy! Also, you probably have received a fatal dose of radiation.
It’s the one-upness of modern parenting. Everyone needs that Instagrammable moment for the likes.
Methinks they might just be approaching it wrong…
