Santa Knows if you've been naughty or nice

Yes I know this is off-topic.

If you have a child and this product from the Harry Potter Movie is on their Christmas list I would think twice about.

Here is the Amazon Link
Harry Potter Broom

Make sure and read the reviews

Shit. Is it that time of year already? A minute ago it was the summer holiday and I was in India, now I haven't even enrolled for my next year at university and someone is already talking about Christmas. Shit.

Look at it this way: it's a lot cheaper than a vibrating toy tumble dryer.

Judging by the reviews this product gives children hours of fun and will obviously become a big seller. Congratulations to the design and marketing staff.

That your next avatar will be the Buddha.

(I'm no Santa but I bet that some bright kid will jump from the roof with that broom, though.)

For those wondering what where are talking about and didn't pick up the reviews on Amazon.com about the Harry Potter Vibrating Broomstick here are a few excerpts.

Quote:

This toy was #1 on my daughter's Christmas list. So what the heck, although it has no educational value I figured it would be good for imaginative play. It wasn't until after she opened her gift and started playing with it that I realized that the toy may offer a more than sensational experience. The broomstick has cute sound effects and ***VIBRATES*** when they put it between their legs to fly. Come on---what were the creators of this toy thinking? She'll keep playing with the Nimbus 2000, but with the batteries removed.

Quote:

My 12 year old daughter is a big Harry Potter fan, and loved the part with the Nimbus 2000, so I decided to buy her this toy. I was afraid she would think it was too babyish, but she LOVES this toy. Even my daughter's friends enjoy playing with this fun toy. I was surprised at how long they can just sit in her room and play with this magic broomstick! A great buy for any Harry Potter fan!

Quote:

When my 12 year old daughter asked for this for her birthday, I kind of wondered if she was too old for it, but she seems to LOVE it. Her friends love it too! They play for hours in her bedroom with this great toy. They really seem to like the special effects it offers (the sound effects and vibrating). My oldest daughter (17) really likes it too! I reccomend this for all children.

Should Santa give it to the nice or the naughty girls?
