Aquadoodle
Ok, so there’s a new drawing/artistic toy out there for the kids. It’s designed to make the parents happy, since there’s no mess attached to it. You put water in this marker pen and then can draw on a pad, which apparently you can reuse until hell freezes over. Sounds great, right?
It’s called Aquadoodle.
The commercial made me laugh for ten minutes. My parents weren’t huge on the restroom euphemisms (although we would use the phrases “number one” and “number two” but my mom drew the line with “BM” which is my personal least favorite) but my grandparents used “doodle.” So Aquadoodle just sounds so gross to me. Way too vivid of imagery. And you draw with the Aquadoodle? You hold it in your hand and draw with the Aquadoodle.
The song for the commercial makes it worse, too. “I can doodle, you can doodle” and “You can doodle on your pets.” Ew, ew, ew. How is doodling on your pets a selling point?
In other news, I saw "Walk the Line" last night. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up. Everyone should go see it. Go. Now.

I don't even want to know how you would doodle on your pets.
That should be your new euphemism for your dog's behavior toward your cat.
"Oh, my dog is aquadoodling on the cat again."
Isn't aquadoodling on your pets only legal in Wyoming? Or does Idaho count on that, too?
Let's not toss Idaho in the Wyoming category. There is no aquadoodling on the pets in my household. At least while I'm at home.
