Funny Conversations with Friends/Family

I was showing my mom the Sweet Dolls Allison on Junkyspot and the second sentence out of her mouth was:

"They have penises too!?" And she knows my boys don't got them. XD She thought it was awesome and even said: "I would love to get my hands on one of those. I mean look at the posing."

If I ever get a Sweet Dolls doll I will know who has him if he ever goes missing. XD I have a feeling my mom will wind up finding a bunch of random stuff for Vala eventually. Birthday list?
Anything and everything I can get for my girl. XD

Another funny convo was:

"So he likes to wear his sister's clothes."

"So he's gay?"

"Well not really...Okay you got me he's gay."

"....Well that's cute."

And then she helped me find my poor Riven a pretty princess dress.

I don't think he's forgiven me for that given how many times he's refused to stand.

 

Oh that's hilarious perskihouse. At least your hubby is more polite than mine

Me: Can we put some dolls in our bedroom
Hubby: No
Me: Oh come on. Just two.
Hubby: Where would you put them
Me: Above the TV on a shelf you're going to build
Hubby: I haven't put in a shelf
Me: Well you're going to build one for the DVD below the TV so why not make another above. Anyway it's good feng shui to have couples in your bedroom
Hubby: Which dolls are you talking about
Me: Only Iplehouse Yur and Luo - our dopplegangers
Hubby: Oh okay, only two
Me: And you can make them a loveseat to sit on. I've already got the pattern
Hubby: Okay then, and they can sit there and watch us doing it

Yes hubby is a perve LOL

 

Dude your hubby's awesome XD.

I remembered ANOTHER convo with my mom the day I got Riven's fur wig.

Me: *smoothing it out not really impressed yet* It's soft.

Mom: *disgusted look* It looks like a someone skinned a rat!

Me: It just needs to be styled mom. -3-

*ten minutes later*

Me: Does THIS look like a rat?

Mom:...No. He looks like a girl.

Me: Desired effect!

When I got my tiny:

Me: Hey mom how do you like her in this wig? (showing her my tiny with a wig on. She absolutely fawned over Haruhi when I first got her home.)

Mom: Oh this is so cute. Wait is this HER wig?

Me: No it's Haruka's I was thinking of getting her one in honey blonde but...The red just looks cute.

Mom: I say she keeps this one. Red's her color.

So mom aided my tiny in stealing my other girl's wig for months. XD

 

Aww, that's so cute!

 

XD It is and my mom helps me out a lot with sewing and finding little things for my dolls. When I got my tiny we literally raided my old barbie stuff to find kelly things to fit her. Even found her a pair of panties. XD She even found cool in scale props for Halloween like these Hallmark lanterns that light up with little gargoyles on top and a string of eye shaped lights that glow green. They work so good with my dolls. XD

 

Me: Mom, I'm going to a doll meet!
Mom: Okay have fun-- wait, can I see her?
Me: This is a boy.
Mom: with long hair?
Me: yes mom.
Mom: That's weird.

PS: My best friend is a guy with hair longer than mine.

 

Me: *telling brother about the “have you ever wanted to be a doll?” thread.*
Brother: That would be horrible, you wouldn’t be about to move, and people would keep groping you.
Me: haha, I’m posting that.
Brother: and if they didn’t like your hands they would boil them.
Me: hahaha


My sisters half of a conversation we had over the phone while she was in the middle of her crowded campus:

Sister: *on phone* What do you mean you can’t move the body? …..have you tried removing the head?

 

Me: -dressing my doll in his mini City & Colour shirt I just finished making-
Brother: "Woooow. He would like music like that. Does he wear slouchy beanies, drink crappy beer and play guitar too?"
Me:"..........."
Him:".................................."
Me:"He does. -holds up the beanie and guitar-"

Brother just walks out.
I was amused.

 

I got my doll yesterday, and my Mom just could not get over his nakedness. First she flipped over his "weeny", then when I sat him down, she started muttering to herself. I asked her what was the matter and she was all "There is a little naked man with his little naked butt all on my counter. With his weeny hangin' out."

I got a good laugh.

Then I went to the kitchen to try and stand him, and once I got him to stand, my mom was all "Better be careful not to let your child fall."

 

This thread never fails to give me a laugh when I need one....

I recently got a new boy... and since I wasn't able to bring him with me on my weekly visit to my parents' house, I showed my mom a pic I'd taken on my cell phone.

Mom: Wow!! That is cool! I really love her glasses!
Me: It's a boy
Mom: What?
Me: It's a boy.
Mom: ...are you sure?
Me: Yes.
Mom: *squinting at picture* Are you really sure?
Me: YES!

 

Best conversation I've had as of yet is with my Grandmother a few days ago asking me why I wanted to bring my DoD Ducan to the casino with me on my birthday.

Grandmother: Why do you want to bring your doll to the casino?
Me: For good luck?
G: Why would you bring something like that?
M: Other people bring their dolls everywhere, even Disney World!
G: It's weird, why do you try to be weird?
M: I am weird... And it depends if I get new clothes for him or not. (I start to laugh a bit) Someone is selling this shirt that says 'Anatomically Correct' on it, I should get that. (laugh even more)
G: ... Are they?
M: (totally casually) Yeah
G: What?! That's gross! Why?!
M: That's how they're made?

My mother and friends got a kick out of this story. Reminds me of when I almost sent a picture to my friend via crappy cell phone picture and decided against it since it looked too real lol

 

I've been traveling for the last week or so, and split up with my family to continue my journey down here in CA while the rest of them went home. Since I'll be going back on a plane, I couldn't keep all my dolls with me. So I lovingly packed Gailan up, and after saying goodbyes at my aunt's fabric store, I rushed back out the door to shout into the street, "OH, MOM! Don't forget, Gail's head is in the glovebox and his body is in the bag in the trunk! If you end up staying someplace hot, be sure to bring his pieces inside!"

Mom: "Don't worry, I won't leave your body out to rot. Bye!"

I walked back inside, satisfied, and the woman at the cutting counter turned around and bluntly asked me if I was a serial killer.

 

Oh I actually had a funny incident today! I went to a 100 yen store (essentially a dollar store) to look at doll accessories, clothes, and furniture today since I had some free time. While I was looking debating if a certain chair could fit a Yo-sd a little girl showed up to look at the doll stuff as well. I did my best to step aside so she could look but she just looked at me and ran off. I overheard her talking to her mom. (Translated by me)

Her mom: (Did you pick something honey?)
Girl: (No not yet...)
Her mom: (Well go pick something! We gotta go soon!)
Girl: (But there's some weird Nee-chan looking at them...)

And then I realize that while it feels ok in my head to be shopping there, I realize that I'm a 20-something year old hanging out alone in the doll section

(edit: I realize this is more like a random incident rather than with friends or family ;u; )

 

I stopped by my mom's workplace a few weeks ago because she told one of her co-workers about my dolls and she wanted to see one in person. I brought my Luts KDF Bory. So I explained to them how well they pose and basically how they're constructed, the time it takes to make one and all of that. Then my mom blurts out:
Mom: I still think he looks like a girl.
Coworker: It's a girl?
Mom: No, but Plague dresses him like one. (He was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and pants that day, plus a fur wig. Coworker was really into how small and detailed everything is.)
Coworker:How do you know he's a boy? Does he have junk? (jokingly)
Mom: YES. (Mom glared at me.)
Me: Well.. yeah, they're anatomically correct.
Coworker 1: Really? Does it actually work? Is it really detailed??? Do they make tiny contraceptives for them too?

So that was kind of an awkward end to a work day. I had to vaguely explain to someone for the first time ever about doll anatomy.. and my mom asked me, once we left, why I didn't undress him and show them.

Another one.. Around the time I ordered my first girl, a Luts Delf Nina.
Mom: Why do you dress your boys up like girls? (They all have pants and shirts.. my Aru has pink sneakers.)
Dad: Pink shoes for a boy? Why would you get him pink shoes? *skeptical look*
Me: They look like boys to me... why does it matter what they wear?
Mom: If you're going to dress them like girls, why don't you get a girl? ... But then you'd dress HER like a boy, right?
Me: No. When I get my girl she's going to wear this dress. (Dollheart's Solomon Grundy - Died on Saturday)
Mom: Then why do you dress them like girls? You're confusing them! Hey! (to Roxy, my Aru) You look like a girl in those shoes!
Me: *rolls eyes*
So I show her Iplehouse's Dexter (and Rexy, because I've been thinking about getting her)
Mom: Whoah, those are dolls? ...(took her a moment to process it) Yeah, yeah! That's what your boys should look like! Get him!
Me: ..You want me to buy another doll?
Mom: Heck no!! Stop buying dolls! They're too much money!
Me: But you just told me--
Mom: You don't need another one!! I thought you ordered one already since you're showing me pictures!

This is a fairly common conversation in my house.

 

Talking to my big sister;

[Our boyfriends were teasing me over my doll's backstory]
Me: No! Kellan's not even old enough to drink, he's only nineteen.
Sister: ....If he could be old enough to drink.

[After she orders her first doll]

Sister: I better order her shoes.. She wants to have shoes.
Me: Did she call and tell you to get her shoes?

LOL. She used to tease me over saying things about my dolls all the time and now that she's getting one, she can see how it is

----------------------

My Grandma was upset over their penises. She told me, "Keep them in a box! What if your niece comes over and sees it!? Then she's going to ask what those are!"
Me: Uh.. She knows the difference between boys and girls.
Gma: WHAT!? WHERE DID SHE SEE A PENIS!?

XD Good lord...

 

Omiko: Haha that's amazing. It's always funny to see the results when a person finds out that these dolls are anatomically correct.

Havra: LOL!! I have yet to have someone ask me if I'm a serial killer, in spite of talking about removing eyes and having body parts strewn around. That's kind of awesome.

Chura: Aww, I don't think there's anything strange about you shopping there. I guess it might be odd to people who don't collect BJDs, though.

Plague: My mom does the same thing regarding the size of my doll collection. She often says, "Don't you have enough children?"

MiyukiChan: Haha! Being in the hobby will definitely change your perspective. I like how those outside the hobby seem to thinking doll penises are somehow perverse... XD It's not as if you'd be waving your BJDs anatomy in front of your niece's face....

 

This thread's hilarious! Bumping for more stories I wish I had some but I haven't had opportunities ^^;

Almost all my doll conversations with friends are funny to people outside the hobby? One liners like "Did you bring the body?" and "I can't find his eyes!" and "I've heard that the hands are weird so I'm switching them out with another" or my personal favorite atm "I can just boil his wrists open."

 

There have been a few but the only one that's coming to mind right now is a conversation I was having with my friend over the phone.

Me: I found a boy that I really like and I was thinking about buying his head.
Mom (who is right behind me in the kitchen): you're going to buy a what?!
Me: a doll head, so I can put it on a different body.
Mom: I don't want any severed heads in this house.

 

Yes I have two

Me: *runs in my dads room. * my doll is here look she's so cute.
Dad: OMG her leg is broken she's cripple!
Me: woops *tries to fix leg and her hair falls off*
Dad: ahhh! She's cripple and she's a cancer patient! You only oust got her and your trying to kill her!

-another day-

Dad: *grabs up my doll* "come on Haylee. Her rooms dirty you don't need this kind of negativity in your life.
Me: my bebe! I was making her a skirt!
Dad: *waltz out the room with my doll and dances in the hall way on the way to his room*

 

i have awkward...conversations all the time, I guess? Basically, my sister uses the full-body length mirror that I keep inside my closet. It's also where I store my dollies and to prevent yellowing.

My sister: *enters room to use closet mirror and opens door*
Me: Can you be careful I have a body in there
My sister: *leaves room immediately*
Me: Ok thank u

And another (when I lose a pair of doll eyes):

Me: My eyes! I can't find my eyes!!!!
Family: Are you ok daughter?
Me: I can't find my eyes! Where did I put my feckin eyes?!
Family: Ooooookay.
