Onesie
FOUND by Albert
in Birmingham, AL
Found this on the floor at the Apple store at The Summit. I did not know what a onesie was. I asked a few guys. They did not know, but it sounded kinky. The whole list sounded kind of kinky, like things to take on the honeymoon or a weeken tryst. Then I asked a gal. She told me a onesie is for babies. There it is! The whole list made sense then. Obviously it was a list of gifts and candy for a baby shower. We did enjoy speculating for a while, though.

When 6-month-olds do the shopping
My favorite personalized onesies:
"And mommy just wanted a backruB"
"When I cry daddy drinks"
Darth Vader onesie "Whose Your Daddy?"
Charles Manson onesie "Is it hot in here or am I jut CRAZY"
Um, no, this is a Christmas list. The "S" denotes gifts for the person's stocking. There are adult onesies (footed one-piece pajamas) although I'm not sure why anyone would wear one.
Kermit, if you'd ever lived in a cold house, with no heat and terazzo floors, you'd understand the reason for the adult onesie. They keep you warm, even if you get out of bed. They used to be called "Dr. Dentons," and for babies, either "crawlers" or "rompers." Of course crawlers have snaps at the legs and crotch so you can change the diaper without undressing the baby entirely.
maybe the list writer wanted to grill the chocolate to dip in the coffee, while wearing the slippers, after the spa treatment...
Milkduds, ouch !
There is nothing funny or unusual to me about this list. But are they listing 5 Rolo FIVE Twix ??? (Ayee in England's plan sounds good!)
I've never heard the footie pajamas called onesies. A onesie is a little t-shirt that snaps at the crotch. An adult onesie would be more like a... leotard, I guess.
I'd like to give a new mom a spa treatment... oh, no, wait - I'd like for me, an old mom, to GET a spa treatment.
A onesie isn't something for a honeymoon, honeymoons usually involve at least two.
If you take the first two lines as one item then it would be a single serving (one cup) coffee maker. The personal could mean she isn't going to share her/his one cup or maybe their are going to get it engraved.
You found it in an apple store, which makes me think onesie is more for the self-centered apple crowd, everything for them is "I", were they looking for an Icoffee?
Janet was making a list of everything she'd gotten for Christmas. She was a little on the large side, and someone thought she was pregnant and gave her a personalized onesie. It was really awkward, so she went to the Apple store because walking there might burn some calories.
The chocolate could be for the game where they melt the chocolate in the microwave and then put it in seperate diapers(it represents poop). Then everyone has to identify what candy bar is in each diaper. Whoever gets them all right wins.
I like the little onesie that says, simply, "got milk?"
Kermit,
Did you really think I believed a 6-month-old wrote this list?
That baby shower game Dollface mentioned is a perfect example of why I despise -- and do NOT attend -- baby showers. Who thinks of these things?
No, Sweetie. My comment was directed to Albert, whose blurb about the whole list making sense, didn't make sense.
@bb - thanks for the mental image! I guess I am glad I've always had heat and carpeting.
Strongly dislike lists.
I'd like to see what Albert and the guys come up with upon finding a breast pump....
Bless your heart, Albert, but you win the Found "Duh" Award.
Kermit is right - Xmas list.
On the other hand first thought was it was one of those super morbidly obese people's shopping list that they give to their food enablers that scamper off to buy food to fill their pie and/or cake holes and can't understand how they have got so obese./..
When I first read this my initial assumption was that grill meant those awful metal tooth coverings. I am not sure why... just what struck me. I knew the onesie reference so I was imagining a woman hopped up on caffeine and eating tons of chocolate with her grill on and a baby with a personalized onesie at the spa. I like my version better than reality (as usual). ^_^
This is a shopping list for a baby shower. Every baby needs onesies. The cup-by-cup coffee maker is for a frazzled mom of a newborn who doesn't feel like drinking sludge at 3 PM. The spa thing is supposedly going to be a welcome gift for said frazzled mom - as if she has time to visit spas. Slippers - of course, you need slippers for bumming around the house all day in your PJs. I'll admit I don't know wht the grill is for - maybe so Dad can do the cooking once in a while. The candy bars are for the already mentioned baby poop smelling game. But why would they want both Rolos AND Milk Duds? They're basically the same thing. Hmmm...Maybe it's NOT a baby shower list!
maybe the writer couldn't remember the name for a... whatchamacallit.. a... those things people put in doorways so babies and dogs can't get through.
So she said grill.
As I probably would have.
And that makes it all work with the baby shower.
A... baby blocker.. a...doorway thingy... a grill!
A onesie could also be a type of pipe. Maybe a camping trip. Candy, coffee and herb for the pipe.
