The Family Guy and Celebrity Bobble Heads

Desperately seeking a Stewie bobble head

The Family Guy is one of the wackiest shows on television today and it's so freakin' hilarious that my husband and I have been TiVo-ing every episode and committing some of Stewie's lines to heart. Goofy I know.

Next on our agenda, we're going to get some Family Guy bobble heads and any other celebrity bobble head I can get my paws on.

Bobble heads are useful because they bring stars down to size. You can tickle them, flick them with you knuckles and they will never, ever complain. It should remind the stars not to take themselves too seriously - cut them down to size and all that... They might be making $20 million a film but fans can hold them in the palm of their hand and control their every head-shaking movement. They're more attractive than a shrunken head from the Amazon but garner just as much attention.

Mostly though you can keep a bobble head with you at all times to release your stress. Remember those gooey pink stress blobs that were out in the 1990s? I'm thinking the bobble head is equivalent to that. Those ridiculous miniature dolls weeble and wobble but don't fall down and you can attach to your car dashboard, your desk, wherever. You can keep it around the house and even though it won't provide you with shade, or quench your thirst, it is a decorative item that will gather dust in your place.

It's been about five years since bobble heads really turned into a craze - what with all the athlete models available but unlike the Beanie Baby, Cabbage Patch Kids, or My Pet Rock, the bobble head has legs (figuratively not literally). There's a Simon Cowell bobble head that says "You're so pathetic." Who could pass that up?

And if I find one of baby Stewie that says, "I command you to put me down, you fat buffoon!", well I'll have to get at least half a dozen.
