Of course, my only motive in playing w/GI Joe was to hook him up with Barbie, so she wouldn't be stuck with that lame-ass Ken. And my Barbie CEO play was stymied by the lack of an appropriate briefcase or business attire. Pink plastic and gold lame just did not provide the requisite credibility.

Ken is a true wuss, even little girls know that. But they market him that way. You'll see dentist Barbie next to Pizza Hut Ken, what the hell is that all about? Barbie gets a Porsche or Corvette, and Ken gets nothing, not even a Hummer.
