Weird things your parents/roommates have said...

"Aww that looks great-Now go put the other eye in!" - My dad when I was showing him my doll Yuichi's red eyes.

"I was actually really worried when I was driving to work on if you'd be able to get his head and eyes on okay." - My mom when Yuichi was being put together.

"Wait your camping out in the living room to wait for the mailman?" - Both parents.

"So he's got a member? *snicker*" - My mother.

"Oh my god...YOU NEED THOSE EYES!" My mom again.

 

How about a comment like this coming from a relative...."I can't believe you would spend that kind of money for a DOLL" Some people just don't get it at all. I've started to think that you're either a doll person or not. Don't think there's much gray area in between. "Ya, I spent a lot of money on a few dolls, and I will be spending more".LOL

 

After discussing girl dolls looking "cold" (nipple-wise) with the boyfriend ... and mentioning the guys are anatomically correct.
Boyfriend: "Are they cold too?"

 

Well was sitting in my room and changing my dolls wig for another, which I proceed to search when my mum entered my room.
She grabed the doll and took her with her.
A few minutes later she came back with Kokoro, who had her whole head covered in toilet paper, because
'she would catch a cold if she layed in my room without hair for too long'

 

My dad told me I should put a walnut in Sarah's head for a brain. I told him it wasn't realistic enough so he painted a walnut to resemble a brain for me for Christmas.

 

While doing body blushing for a friend - "Omg, look... look at his penis... It's... *begin the voice adults use for talking to babies* IT'S SO TINY." - My dad.

"Either you buy your doll some damn pants, or you go get yourself a boyfriend, take your pick." - My mother. Just last week.

 

The phone was ringing here at the house and when I asked my mother who was calling, she said it was just the university asking for money. She then said she should have answered and told them "I have no money, I gave it all to my daughter so she could ship a head in the mail"...I wished she'd done it. But then we figured we'd have the RNC calling wondering why I was sending dismembered heads in the mail.

 

"The head's got eyes!" (Boyfriend Obvious, noticing that my floating Yuan head is no longer blind )

 

"You look like a mother with her son" My best friend looking at me while posing my boy xD

 

This wasn't weird, it was just funny!

Mum looks at Jeff sprawled on the sofa in his PJ's (Jeff had only been home for three days.)

Mum: "He's got himself comfortable hasn't he, he's only been here 5 minutes and he's already making himself at home!!"
Me: *giggle*
Mum: *Turns to Jeff* "I hope you're working."
Me: "He does, he works in a cinema."
Mum: "I thought he worked in a Pizza place."
Me: "He was going to. He's only 16, you need to be 17 to drive the delivery scooter. So he works in the cinema."
Mum: "Oh that's good he can get us in for free."
Me:
Mum: "Does he give all the nice girls free popcorn?"

They then proceeded to spend the day hanging out in the living room while I went off with my best friend.

 

Most of nicest things were said at the time i joined the hobby around fall season 2008,when i got my very first BJD (a fully customized Hong from DZ) my mom said when she spotted my bjd:
"Oh my gosh!He looks like a real baby,lovely!"
then my dad another afternoon was about to leave for work when he noticed a bad tied necktie on GenZo,so he shaked his head and said
"Gimmie this guy,he needs to wear properly his necktie"
then he talked directly to Genzo and addedd
"that's it the best way to wear necktie,good guy"
I could say both like my BJDs

 

well, the first time i ever got a bjd, my grandma and my aunt wouldn't stop laughing when they saw his *worm* xD
i didn't order clothes for him yet, and i didnt want him to be sitting at our couch naked, so i made a top and pants from socks. when i finished, i just went out of the living room to put away the mess i made. then i heard they were laughing again. my grandma made Levi wear the pants.. and was saying they can see the outline of his willy.. >_>; *facepalm* why can't they just give Levi a break? Dx

 

I had a slightly embarrassing episode with my father and my newest doll...

When my Dollshe Saint arrived home last week, I didn't have any pants for him to start out with---his thighs and his junk were too big to squeeze into my RS 70cm guy's trousers. Didn't have any undies for him to slip on either. So I dressed him in a yukata and left him on the kitchen table.
My dad was very positive about me getting this doll (not that he adores dolls, but he could see how much it meant to me), so as soon as he got home I started showing him the new arrival, moving him around and talking about his joints and so forth. Dad made a few remarks about his aesthetic and proportions, and I said, "Aw, yeah, he's just all-over too big to fit into all the pants I have. I'll make him some later."

Right on cue, Saint's leg slips down, exposing his manhood.

Dad: "OH, I see why those pants didn't fit. At least he's circumcised, yeah?" Dad starts to walk away as I hurry up and cover my doll, but then turns back with this weird look on his face and goes, "But you don't know about that sort of stuff, right?"

I could have cried. "DAD! I'm twenty years old!"

 

Weird things my parents have said. Well, I'm all grown up and live on my own, but when I got my first doll (RS "Long") I HAD to show my mom. I had been talking about the dolls for a long time before I got one, so I assumed my mom had been informed somewhere along the line that the dolls were anatomically correct. SO, as soon as I got my Long I took him over to my moms house. Obviously he was naked, so when I took him out of the box, my ma says, "He has a penis!" I played it cool and replied, "He has a little more than that..." lol

 

Since there are already a lot of doll penis stories, I'll share a more innocent one involving my six year old brother, who adores my Angelo.

I was pulling Angelo out of his carrier, and my brother comes running, just like he does every time he sees that I have Angelo out. Angelo was only wearing his boxer briefs at the time.

Nathaniel, my brother, to Angelo: "Hi Angelo! I really like your undies! They're really white!"

My brother is so involved with Angelo, so I'm a little nervous about when I'll be getting an anatomically correct girl. XD

 

XD Your brother sounds adorable.

 

I thought it was cute today my mum came into my room and said hi to Jeff. She picked him up from the chair and sat him on her lap and asked him what he's been doing, then said he said he'd just been hanging out. When she left she tried to sit him in an awkward position and his head flopped down in a grumpy way. She said "Come on. Sit nice for Grandma."

The other day I came on Jeff was sitting on the chair wearing a doll hat and my glasses. :/ my mum swore she didn't do it.
(I found out some days later my brother had visited home and did it.)

 

My grandad picked up one of my dolls and said "see, I think they're much nicer than the Barbies you can get". He wouldn't approve of spending money on unnecessary things, so I've not told him how much they cost.

 

Took Copernica to my crafting circle.
"I think she's cute; I just don't like her eyes. She's weird. They look insectoid, like she has no soul."

 

Shirley is my mom's favorite. Sometimes she may say:"Dudu, come here and play with me! Good girl, how cute!"
