Bold if you had one.
Underline if you ever played with one or knew someone who did.
Italicize if you've never heard of it.

And shrinky-dinks were this bizarre plastic stuff that you painted, then put in a hot oven to make them shrink up to a more permanent hard form. Supposedly for decorative purposes, I think.
Hey, they still make those! http://www.shrinkydinks.com/
As a side note, I so wish I didn't know what Bratz are. Horrid role models for little girls, ugh.
I should have underlined shrinky dinks; I knew people who had them but I didn't.
I'm not impressed with Bratz either.
In any case I remember the ads and even had Weeble-ad inspired dreams! They were like Fisher-Price people, only egg-shaped.
