Will I be expelled for suggesting this is a good idea to get all those anal adults to face their inner child?

(With all this play-d’oh poop around, a Freudian slip is going to happen sooner or later anyway. )

Paul Conroy will be making his own Play-Doh from now on. What are the odds this is true? What are the odds he even has children?

I don’t think the poop thing is inherently problematic, and i can appreciate some poop jokes but i just gotta wonder why the people at Play Doh thought it was a good idea. I don’t really get it

I think it’s OK to play with poop as long as it’s a learning experience. For example: if kids learn it’s fucking disgusting to play with poop.

See: SNL “Litter Critters” skit.

A glance at his Facebook page is all you need. There are some pretty nutty people amongst the unhappy comments.

To be fair, it’s actually pretty easy to make DIY play dough; growing up, my kid came home from camp or daycare more than once with plastic baggies of the stuff.

That said, his vehement overreaction is really… something.

I’m told many kinks start quite early.

Not fair OR funny, guilty, guilty as charged.

Maybe branding it as shit will make kids less likely to eat it? Might have a small public health benefit.
