AUDIO: HOT NEW TOY – YELLIES
This year’s hot – and controversial – holiday toys are Hasbro’s Yellies. They’re calling it the toy that’s every parent’s nightmare. It’s a little plush spider-like creature with wheels on the bottom. The Yellie is activated by – get this – yelling. The gimmick is, the louder you scream, the faster they go. And what’s more – they tend to stop, turn, and run in the direction of the screaming. And remember – the louder you scream, the faster they go.
* For more fun, attach a knife.
* This sounds like the plot of a rejected horror movie – the more you scream, the more the monster is attracted to you.
* Actually, it sounds like the Mueller investigation – the louder Trump yells, the closer Mueller investigates.
* Buy these for your kid, because a drum kit is too expensive.
* The only bright side in this? It’s too late to put a Yellie in “Toy Story 4”.
* “Hey, c’mere Yellie. Meet my friend Sledgehammer-ie.”
