Fisher Price: Halloween

Halloween is a night of fun and revelry, a night of mischief and a night of myth, a night of vandalism and a night of everything juvenile. Hence, it only seems appropriate that Fisher Price was given onto the world that very night.
The official date of the publication for Fisher Price is the first day of November. However, the place of the publication was Quincy, Indiana, which was experiencing Halloween night at two minutes after two in the morning. Indeed, 4.252.99.182 was spotted at the Ritz hotel wearing a mask of George W. Bush. One can speculate that the author had returned from a Halloween party, and was immediately struck by inspiration from the very spirit of the holiday.
Under this view, Fisher Price could be interpreted as commentary on the custom of trick-or-treating. By stating "go eat shit fuckers", the author was telling children, or 'little fuckers', to go out and eat all the tooth-decaying sweets to can get their grubby hands on. Perhaps he also wanted to give a nod to teenagers stuck in the Purgatory between childhood and adulthood by contrasting a vulgar phrase with the name of a toddler's toy company. Overall, Fisher Price reminds us to enjoy our youth while we still can, on this, the night of the Id.
With that in mind, let's keep this message in our hearts, not just one night a year, but every day of our lives. Let this be the motto of all the childish at heart:
