I'm just happy for the red circle, without which I could never have completely understood this meme.
sensible chuckle

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

The red circle is for people who cannot see.

I'm so glad that red circle was there. I would have totally missed the joke.

[–] ErKaf@feddit.de 57 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Thanks for the red circle. I nearly didn't notice that comment.

[–] spader312@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Omg does Lenny have a community for unnecessary red circles?

[–] ErKaf@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Just searched and didn't find any. Want to create one together? Haha

Just searched and didn't find any.

If only there was a red circle to help us find it!

can someone tell me where in the picture i’m supposed to be looking

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 20 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

First look at slightly above center and read 2 lines in a centered window 80% of image width. Then aim for 95% down, 95% left and read a line 85% of image width.

Always happy to help the visually impaired appear normal in public!

[–] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 6 points 11 months ago

Could you add a flashing arrow pointing to where I should look. One for each step that is. Thanks

Are you the first doll from American Girl with eyesight loss?

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

i just might be

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 7 points 11 months ago

top right, thank me later

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 32 points 11 months ago

What actually happened is far far worse.

She was the first American Girl doll who could hear, and they’ve gone and made her deaf.

Poor thing.

[–] covert_czar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ah that's the neat part, rest of them are spy dolls made by nsa

[–] kubica@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago

dolls aren't real

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Also, why had that American girl been holding the doll captive?

[–] 30p87@feddit.de 12 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Note that it is not blind. It can still see you.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 3 points 11 months ago

Whatever you say, Mr. Tom, a dildo lover.

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 months ago

Also this one comes with hearing aids. So it can still hear you, just not as well as the others.

[–] jray4559@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wow, finally, a doll for me!

  • no one
[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

That’s mean. HoH children will love the representation. They have very few relatable characters in media.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I'm waiting for the first blind one

[–] NutWrench@lemmy.ml 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Remember when some cheap company sold a bunch of bald, unfinished Bratz dolls and tried to claim they were going through chemotherapy?

[–] Deestan@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That sounds amazing but I can't find that by searching for it. Do you have a link?

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I’m presuming American Girl is a company, and not an UnSub

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nah, just a random young female American who likes improsoning toys 🤷

She has a brother named Sid, evidently..

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

The thumbnail looks like a toy Sids sister would have actually

[–] kubica@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

What was the title trying to say? I'm trying to read it from a different point but no results.

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

Short answer is all American Girl dolls come with backstories and related gear. They also publish books with the dolls as the main characters

[–] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well it’s nice to know that their new haunted doll cannot hear us. Unless of course we sign, or otherwise use our hands in an exaggerated manner while speaking.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I suspect the doll with hearing loss knows sign language.

[–] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 months ago

Shit I need to go apologize to my haunted doll.

[–] Omega_Haxors@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Of course they can, haven't you seen Toy Story?

[–] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Old but gold
