Now, is this just absurdist humour or did Romney say something about Furbies?

[–]jb700000 27 points28 points ago

No, we reddit, reddit hate romney. give karma, now.

[–]lethargicwalrus 4 points5 points ago

DAE Romney owns lots of thing?

[–]jb700000 -2 points-1 points ago

liek, ohemgee, wut a dictator

[–]FlatlanderMachine -4 points-3 points ago

The reason the world is such a terrible place is because there are rich people.

Edit: Forgot the /s , reddit is thick.

[–]jb700000 1 point2 points ago

YEAH! If the rich people weren't rich, I'd be rich, and then I'd be like, "being rich is illegal," then everyone would be happy

[–]Fyreswing -5 points-4 points ago

SO BRAVE

[–]blaghart 0 points1 point ago

Of course, we'd have to figure out which house he'll be staying at the day they arrive, and send them in advance.

[–]ProxyMuncher 48 points49 points ago

...which house should we send them to?

[–]raistlin11 26 points27 points ago

All of them?

[–]lethargicwalrus 22 points23 points ago

Not enough furbies, sorry.

[–]vuhleeitee 5 points6 points ago

Different pieces to each one. God, the horror.

[–]Triffer93 38 points39 points ago

sh.....s..... Should we do it? Can anyone work out the numbers required?

[–]jumpinglemurs 15 points16 points ago

We must. This is our sign! Err... apparently they are going for around $70 on amazon. Perhaps this is not the most economical idea in the world.

[–]crookedcain 11 points12 points ago

New idea: Hundreds and Hundreds of these, http://www.amazon.com/Neca-Toys-Plush-Figures-Gremlins/dp/B001DZ8JBS/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1348289014&sr=8-16&keywords=furby Gremlins.

Like Furbies, but slightly creepier.

[–]wolf_of_mibu 2 points3 points ago

But does Amazon have enough to flood Romney's house with them?

[–]crookedcain 0 points1 point ago

That is a fantastic question.

[–]Mutt_Buncher 3 points4 points ago

Beanie babies seem like a more economically feasible option.

[–]artemisfowl15 2 points3 points ago

those will be valuable some day.

[–]Triffer93 1 point2 points ago

Personally if we can't have Furbies. Massive plastic dicks.

[–]reddevilgus19 2 points3 points ago

we should send knock-off ferbies...

[–]a_dub_yah 5 points6 points ago

you have my sword

[–]Rainb0wcrash99 4 points5 points ago

AND MY AX

[–]clambam11 1 point2 points ago

May your hammer be mighty

[–]classic__schmosby 25 points26 points ago

Nice try Furbies CEO.

To people who think this is hilarious: he will likely never see them. A servant will open them and throw them away.

[–]trshtehdsh 4 points5 points ago

Classic classic schmosby.

[–]Garacian00 3 points4 points ago

i like the use of the word "servant" rather than "assistant"

[–]georgiebird 52 points53 points ago

This is the best idea ever

[–]Phoequinox 4 points5 points ago

I think a better idea would be to send them to any of the original Star Trek cast.

Also, the new Furbies are a lot less creepy than they used to be. They're definitely marketed towards the average teenage girl whereas the original Furbies targeted no one.

[–]fluffkomix 2 points3 points ago

The original furbies targeted EVERYONE

[–]Phoequinox 2 points3 points ago

I mean in terms of sales, not in terms of eradication.

[–]Anonazon2 3 points4 points ago

Let's send him empty boxes instead

[–]lockwolf 12 points13 points ago

No, let's send him AOL discs

[–]semisubzero 0 points1 point ago

you monster

[–]nizo505 0 points1 point ago

Postcard requesting he release his 2009 taxes.

[–]MegaSuperAwesome1214 3 points4 points ago

Yes...yes and we shall program the Furbies to say things..."Kill Romney"...."Die, Homophobe"....."Black guys, everywhere...".

[–]Kaw8311 14 points15 points ago

I thought we killed Furbies like 6 years ago

[–]tarrox1992 17 points18 points ago

They're back, and their evil little eyes fucking glow now.

[–]TheBoss347 13 points14 points ago

New and improved! Now even scarier when shoved in the closet.

[–]Baby-Haroro 4 points5 points ago

I literally just had a conversation with my friend about gnomes hiding in my closet, and how some furbies survived the extermination years ago and turned the gnomes evil.... well... i'm not going to be sleeping well tonight....

[–]FloralStreusel 4 points5 points ago

And they're made of titanium, so they'll never break.

[–]Vallenn 1 point2 points ago

My little sister got one for Christmas when she was like 6 and she would bring the fucking thing into my room in the middle of the night and stick it in MY closet because it wouldn't shut up.

[–]Massif_centrale 6 points7 points ago

My ex gf had one at uni. I took the batteries out of it and it still talked.

[–]TheValleyGirlAccent 1 point2 points ago

I've had my Furby since elementary. I'm in college now, and she still wakes up when I flip her upside down.

[–]Kaw8311 0 points1 point ago

Hehe that's not creepy... help

[–]Learned-Hand 6 points7 points ago

He's back! In pog form!

[–]dabisnit 0 points1 point ago

They are in movies! I saw them at Walmart

[–]Soronir 2 points3 points ago

Wait- Can Furbies vote? I know the old ones couldn't, but the new ones I'm not sure.

[–]abraxsis 6 points7 points ago

Well, with millons of furbies repeating everything he says, maybe he will realize how much of a moron he sounds like.

[–]m_e_andrews 11 points12 points ago

they prefer the term Mormon to moron. its more pc

[–]Blazingwand 1 point2 points ago

... I would shit my self ... not figuratively literally... I fucking terrified of furbies

[–]ashandari 1 point2 points ago

Why would I do that to those poor furbies?

[–]Buck_Futthole 1 point2 points ago

Imagine me downvoting shitty FB posts.

[–]CptSquiggle 1 point2 points ago

Or.. you know.. we could send them to needy children, millions of needy children. Think about it.

[–]AsmAlltAco 2 points3 points ago

Reddit I have never asked you to do anything. Please make this happen.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]the_hardest_part 1 point2 points ago

Just send one to each. Leave it on the doorstep in the same way each time...

[–]RedditReid 1 point2 points ago

Great! Now which house...?

[–]jednx01 0 points1 point ago

Looks up Furbies on amazon

Mother of god... when did furbies get so darn expensive?

[–]trshtehdsh 0 points1 point ago

Since they may a new one that dances and shit. I was staring at it tonight- $54 at walmart.

[–]per_ardua 0 points1 point ago

Actually, could we make this happen?? Kinda the best idea ever.

[–]polarisdelta 1 point2 points ago

If he gets wind of your clever plan, he will manage to enough stock in the company to profit from it.

[–]illdoitlaterokay 0 points1 point ago

...not to mention that he would have millions of furbies to resell for profit, free publicity from the news story about it, and the chance to play the victim.

[–]shenglizhe 0 points1 point ago

You accidentally a word

[–]polarisdelta 0 points1 point ago

Ah, thank you. Better than accidentally a furby, yeah?

[–]Matthicus 1 point2 points ago

No human being deserves this.

[–]soulknight56 0 points1 point ago

This idea. Is the greatest idea. That was ever thought up. Also, witch house do we send them to?

[–]Brofister10112 0 points1 point ago

My baby sis got a furby today .O_o

[–]zpkmook 0 points1 point ago

Why not dildos?

[–]MotivatedMe 0 points1 point ago

NOT. FUNNY.

[–]fatjokes 0 points1 point ago

Because Romney doesn't already have millions of everything?

[–]Lunux 0 points1 point ago

I feel the result would be somewhat similar to this but on a much, MUCH greater scale.

[–]Legitsu 0 points1 point ago

You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.

[–]blackninja99 0 points1 point ago

We need to actually do this reddit

[–]I_TYPE_IN_ALL_CAPS 0 points1 point ago

ANY FURBY WITH BATTERIES DISPLAYS MORE CONVINCING EMOTION THAN MITT ROMNEY.

[–]parkertonsloanworth 0 points1 point ago

Can we do this? List of requirements •Romneys main living establishment's address •price of a furby • someway to see his "wtf" face when he gets it

[–]iTimmeh 0 points1 point ago

Why Furbies? Why not a bunch of spray on tan bottles?

[–]danaofdoom 0 points1 point ago

Yes! How do we make this happen?

[–]DinaDinaDinaBatman 0 points1 point ago

he would sell them.. for profit.....

[–]OrangutanNipples 0 points1 point ago

Which house?

[–]whomeverIwishtobe 0 points1 point ago

PLOT TWIST: Mitt Romney want's millions of furbies so he can resell them all and make millions off of you.

[–]grodzilla 0 points1 point ago

NO DO NOT BUY FURBIES!!!!!!! IT WILL ONLY ENCOURAGE THEM TO MAKE MORE!!!!!

[–]BTTJ 0 points1 point ago

How would you know what house to send it to?

[–]moonpielover56 0 points1 point ago

Why not dog turds

[–]Calavera190 0 points1 point ago

All the more funny because the title reminds me of the John Lennon song.

[–]liberalis 0 points1 point ago

So he can open a Furbie store and get even richer. Just send them to me, I won't even be mad.

[–]phnargh 1 point2 points ago

this should be a thing.

[–]johnclarkbadass 0 points1 point ago

Wait, which house?

[–]spacecat220 -2 points-1 points ago

...I am going to send a furby to Mitt Romney

[–]sboogaloo -1 points0 points ago

[–]moonlightsun 0 points1 point ago

Yes and we should make them speak Spanish as well.
