What do you mean you're not selling penis mightiers? You're sitting on a gold mine!

I don't care how you say it, I just want to know if it works, because I have been burned by these products before, Trebek!

I'm better at the penis mightier.

How long did it take you to find that or how long have you been holding onto that image? because that is perfect.

Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over— an analyst and a therapist. The world’s first analrapist.

The world's first analyst-therapist

So I know the joke with spelling but also, Barbie therapist!? WTF? How does that work as a play toy? The concepts seem like they'd be so confusing and boring for a child. I gather it was to send a "you can be anything when you grow up" message, but it'd be about as exciting as a toy as a Barbie accountant. That's just weird.

I saw a therapist as a child. It was super helpful; that's when I got my ADHD diagnosis.

Right but I mean, the more classic examples of professions to be made in to doll form tend to more easily liken themselves to simplistic representations that you can convey to children as a toy and have them roughly understand and imagine doing. A doctor, an army guy, maybe a mechanic, a police officer, a scientist they're all pretty visual, they have uniforms or attire strongly associated with the work itself and plenty of props to package with them for the kid to interact with to emulate doing that job. The therapist kinda wears just whatever and their job primarily involves talking so it just doesn't seem an obvious choice for a doll for children's entertainment at all.

These gritty movie reboots are finally starting to pay off!
