The world isn't "going to" hell, we're already there. Proof? See above.

I used to find people who can just deny, deny, deny with a straight face hilarious. Then Cheney came along and ruined it for everyone. First, these guys justify this game, next it's giving billions in tax breaks and government contracts to incompetent cronies.

What. The. Fuck.

Not my daughter, I'm afraid. Jesus H. Christ.

That is completely appalling!

@GoldHoops: Indeed!

This is beyond hideous. At least the concept is being rejected by even the mainstream media.

Perhaps I just need a good lay, but I find this extremely distressing - moreso because it was created by two MEN.

I love how it says "Right image for little girls?" at the bottom of the screen. Like it's up for serious debate?

Unfortunately, just because it is appalling and over-the-top, it will get much media attention, and therefore, lots of sales for the two dicks who created it. My apologies to men named Dick.

i sincerely hope that neither one of these floppy haired founders gets laid ever again.

Two men created this? How shocking!

This is worse than that game I used to play where you were on a playground and had to bully other girls to win the game. I don't remember what it's called, but I can't believe I used to play it.

@ItchykooParker: The good news is that you kids will be virtual gods in the future world of shallow morons that we are creating.

I did my own LOLcat coverage of Bimbos. I won't foist any links on anybody because advertising is totes bad form. I'll just throw the link in my profile. Doo dee doo.

Just fucking great.

The world hates women. I'm convinced.

And -- I'm sorry -- is that girl named Poppy??

What are they suggesting w/ those bunny ears, huh?

@RiskyGirl: I remember now, it was called Sissy Fight.

Love your bimbo. Send her to university. Buy her some comfy shoes, feed her a cheeseburger, make her read The Feminine Mystique.

Oh, wait, would that be a bimbo-maintenance program or a bimbo-reduction program? It's like a bimbo paradox!

@klm7552: You mean for the first time right? Very reminiscent of Weird Science.

@BeSarcastic: I just decided I liked the name Poppy. Probably because that child is adorable, if misguided in her gaming choices.

why is this even up for debate? I can't watch it atm, but I'm sure Ann Curry is digging deep into this investigation. Quick, SERIOUS FACE: on!

This is fucking stupid, I agree.

Who's up for a Jezebel raid? I'm not sure the tools are in place to turn my Bimbo into a nerdy stoner/bookworm who refuses her diet pills, but I'll give it my best.

those guys...i mean...i'm sure their moms are so proud that their little boys created that site.

good Lord almighty.

"Morally positive"? In what world?

I used to think I was pretty cutting edge playing the "Sweet Valley High" board game, but at least my beloved Elizabeth would never stoop to being called a bimbo.

@blondegrlz: She is adorable. My comment be stricken from Jezebel record!

@SarahMC: That's probably the highest honor for a Bimbo: being an official Playboy centerfold. It comes right after winning Rock of Love, which is one step up from being in a Girls Gone Wild video.

The darker haired founded was trying to stifle a giggle throughout the interview. Disgusting.

whatever happened to barbies (yes, i knowwww not the best example, but whatever.) and my little ponies, and candyland, and playing tag, and sand boxes, and playgrounds for these youngins??? kids should not be playing computer games all day. take them outside!!!

I bet a week's salary that this is a hoax. Some sort of grad study experiment, and will be written up in "Science" next month. Seeing the two creators clinched it -- if these guys aren't Sociology PhD candidates and Shins fans, I'm King Kong.

I love how the one in the polo shirt isn't talking because he's obviously trying not to crack up. Can we just devote them to science, right now? And fuck, what happened to kids playing neopets? Is that no longer around? I'd rather my child think that they are magical creatures who only eat junk food hanging around then trying to diet a bimbo.

Excuse me, what is up with the mother in the foreground saying the game is the opposite of what she wants to teach her daughters, while they giggle over a computer screen in the background. As if she has zero control over the actions of her 8-year old.

News flash, lady: as a parent, you are allowed to actually...you know...PARENT. It's not a joke, and it's not out of your hands. Turn off the computer, take it away, have them delete their account. The options are many.

UGH.

This might, might be funny if there was a bit more obvious satire involved, AND IF IT WERE NOT MARKETED TO CHILDREN.

@BeSarcastic: I'm loving the name, actually. I'd consider it for a daughter. It's more popular in England, I think.

I know this is damaging for everyone and all, but can we please think of a male equivilant for this game??

Seems a stretch to refer to the Bimbo creators as "men". Adult-aged boys, maybe. Male-shaped monsters, perhaps. Teeny-peened creeps, definitely.

I feel really sorry for parents when I see this kind of shit. Trying to protect your kids must be like walking around in a mine field. I don't know how y'all do it.

@dummyfakeroller: oh man, that would sortof be a huge relief and awesome.

but sortof horrible for the 200,000 + kids that are apparently already registered.

@bifteck-frites: Yeah, it's not subversive if you're actually encouraging kids to play it.

@gold_gato: How about "Mr. Pricko"? Miss Bimbo's future First Husband.

These guys were also on CBS's The Early Show this week. My favorite part of the interview was when they tried to convince us that the word "bimbo" had taken on positive connotations in the age of Paris Hilton. Uh-huh, that makes total sense.

@Banana Grabber:
As much as those two who created a game that thrives on all the negative image stuff that there is are douches for doing it, I'm going to have to agree with you.

Parents who think they can just let their kiddies be parented by the tv/xbox/internet/computer suck in a really big way.

This is obviously marketed towards teen girls and that's fucking disgusting, most of the time I'm on the exact opposite side of this argument (There's a reason GTA is rated M, etc, etc,) but christ not this time.

Games that exploit image issues and like? Suck. Parents who fail at being parents? Also suck.

"You might want to when you see this story?"

Also, if that lady says it's the "absolute opposite" of what she wants her daughter to be... maybe, um, don't let her play the game, you fucking idiot.

ok, I had to go to this site to see what it was - my curiosity got me. HYSTERICAL first page ... one of several nauseating (but at least this one is funny) quotes:

We would also like to sincerely apologise to our players for the media comparison of Miss Bimbo and Paris Hilton. We feel that this does a dis-service to the players whom send their bimbos to university, tea parties or chess tournaments.

@jenalicious: Agreed. Sure, Barbie has ridiculous and impossible-to-achieve-without-surgery-porportions, but Barbie had her own mansion, her own car, and went from being a Stewardess to an Astronaut. Ken didn't even have genitals.

@gold_gato: The male equivalent would be Mr. Himbo. Naturally.

Those dudes had to be high when they thought of that.

@westendgirl: I agree that the Bimbo site comes across as a stunt, you can see the sarcasm dripping from the creators' faces. Of course, not every kid understands what irony is.

@bifteck-frites: My initial reaction to it made me think of a scene from The Simpsons, where some super rich WASPs are playing tennis, wearing white sweaters tied around their necks, and the one says (in a rich voice), "Poppy, have you seen Dash?"

But the British do everything better.

Well they got the publicity they were craving.
