Mr Potato Head to lose "Mr" title in gender-neutral rebrand
A gender-neutral makeover will see Mr Potato Head become the toy formerly known as Mr Potato Head.
The classic toy's branding is being "reimagined for the modern consumer", its US maker Hasbro announced on Thursday.
From later this year, the toy - launched almost 70 years ago - will be named Potato Head on packaging.

The point that journalists - and I use that term loosely - seem to have missed is that the big change here is renaming the brand, so that (for example) Mrs. Potato Head is not seen as ancillary to the Mr. Potato Head brand. I can't see how that's a bad thing. They are pushing how the Potato Head family kits can make two mommies or two daddies, but this seems more like repackaging than changing the components in the product."Now Hasbro has decided to announce again that the ‘Mr. Potato Head’ will not be going anywhere as well as Mr. and Mrs. will remain as their own characters. It is more obvious now when the first announcement happened, the company wanted to test the waters as to how the internet would react.
Matt Walsh of Daily Wire mocked Hasbro’s decision with what [certain types] would say,
“I told my 7-year-old daughter that Mr. Potato Head is gender neutral now and she smiled and said, ‘This is the greatest day of my life. Finally I can be at peace.’ We hugged and I started sobbing. It was so beautiful.”

Translation: Hasbro got gobs of free publicity for virtually zero effort.

good journalist would have seen through that.
North Korea: Russian diplomats leave by hand-pushed trolley
The eight people travelled by train and bus before pushing themselves across the Russian border for about 1km (0.6miles) over train tracks.

Agreed,Things I never knew, part 758: Russia has a border with North Korea. I was sceptical, so I checked my map, ready to gloat, but there it is - 10 miles of river and one railway bridge!
Every day here is an education.

I'm not disagreeing that Hasbro was being clever to generate publicly, but a good journalist would have seen through that.
Bin with a clip lid?Last night I was up at about 3:30 and noticed that the motion detector light in the front was on. Peered out the window hoping for a fox but nothing. Then noticed that the one in the back was on, so I peered out that curtain and saw the local racoon, who is huge, probably the largest I have seen, standing up and pushing at the metal lid to the metal can (standard trash can size) that holds the bird seed. I don't know how he knew it was in there, and I don't know how he did it because it takes me two hands to pull on the lid, but he got it off and I saw a large racoon hind end protruding from the can. Thinking of the new 10 lbs of bird seed and bag of corn and that racoons once they learn something don't forget, rather than run out banging pots in my winter pj's I sighed, wished him a good meal and went back to bed. This afternoon I turned the can over so the other wildlife could get the remnants. Must think of a solution.
Named after his ancestor where you got a kit with bits on the end of metal pins which you then pushed into a real potato.They call him Mr Potato Head, but anatomically that's not quite correct is it? He is one whole mass, upon which the various appendages and facial features are placed.
If anything the correct name would be something like 'Mr Potato body'.

Ive definately seen mr and mrs potato head in the dame room at the same time in toy story (mumble)I was always of the opinion that there only was a Mister Potato Head.....Mrs Potato Head was just him in a frock and wearing a bit of lippy. What he gets up to in the privacy of his own home is his concern only.....it’s a free world and he isn’t causing any harm to anyone or scaring the horses!

What were they buying?I've seen them in Asda.

I'm sure they manage on their own.
I see loads of the feckers everywhere I go.
I feed the pigeons, I sometimes feed the sparrows too, it gives me a sense of enormous wellbeing!
