Funny Things You said since getting into the Hobby!

Well, there's always

" I sold her body, it just wasn't working out for me"

Which sounds kinda awful out of context. XP

 

Me: "I'm feeling a bit confused today, like my head magnet is in back to front"
My friend: " I didn't touch it"

 

Just a conversation:

Me: "I have to go to the post office."
Friend: "Why?"
Me: "I have to mail off this box."
Friend: "What's in it?"
Me: "My head...well, my doll's head... It's going to Texas."

and:
"And you complain about not wanting me to have headless bodies around. She has 5 heads in a basket."

 

My wife ordered a doll recently and for weeks was going on and on about her 'pink Ju on a Rong body.' Say it out loud. It's hilarious!

 

"Hey, get the cat away from his eyes."
"I've got to get a glue gun. This guy's hair keeps falling off."
"Hold his legs, I've got to get his head back on."

 

"I need a taller body. Mine's going yellow anyway."
"Do you have an envelope? I need to send some eyes to America."
"Oh, I forgot I had a head in here."

And one of those things you accidentally think out loud when I saw a little boy riding past on a bike.
"Wow, he'd make a beautiful doll."

 

Me: "OMG! So excited!"
Hubby: "Over what?"
Me: "Free head!"
Hubby: "Oh yeah!"

ummm..event head, that is...>.>

 

Love this! From now on, when I have an off day, it's going to be a headcap on backwards day!


Just now I commented in another thread, we were talking about double-jointed and single-jointed and ect. Then a company came up and I didn't know what the specific details were so I asked
"Why? What did they do to their joints?"
I had to have a 12-year-old immature moments and laugh. Hehe, joints. (Not sure if it's a regional slang or not, but just in case; joints usually refer to illegal drugs)

 

"Can you pass me that foot"

Me: "Look Babe naked headless bodies"
Boyfriend: "least they dont stare at me anymore"

 

omg..I laughed :'D

 

Most of my friends aren't into the doll hobby and think it's strange, so I get very odd looks everytime I drop a:

"Be right back, I need to put the other arms on him."

"Oh sweet, my eyes came in the mail today."

"Hang on, think I just lost a hand under the dresser."

 

I love this thread.

I had a moment today. With my work I typically can't wear shorts or capris, I have to wear jeans (well, I don't have to, but it's the best way to prevent poison ivy and such. But I wear short sleeves. My arms are tan and my legs are super white. I did wear shorts today and I looked at myself and said;

"Look! It's like they gave me normal skin arms and white skin legs!!"

I don't know who 'they' is, but... I'm sure this sounded so strange to my mother.

 

Hahaha these are fantastic xD


Mom: "That guy sure does walk funny. His joints look all...loosey-goosey."
Me: "He looks like he needs his strings tightened."
Mom: "...Yeah, he does!"

 

I imagine this sounded very strange to any coworkers who overheard only my side of a phone conversation with my hubby:

"He's fine, don't worry about it..."
"Just put his leg, his ankle and the foot on the table and I'll take care of it when I get home."
"Stop trying to put his leg back on! Seriously, just put him on the table!"

 

First I shipped off the body to one buyer. Then I shipped the head off to another buyer.

another one.
PO clerk: What does this mean eyes? Looking at customs for I filled out.
Me: The are doll eyes made of glass.
Him: OK scratches out Eyes and writes, Glass Dolll Eyes. What they think I am shipping human?

 

I am so glad my head came today!
Now, where did I put my new eyes....

 

Me: I need to mail this box
Postal worker: Whats in it ( the is it breakable ect ect)
ME: /Smirks A Headless body
Postal worker: O.o What
Other postal worker who normal helps me: Its ok she mails that kinda stuff all the time.


Later that same week same postal worker
ME: I need to mail this
Postal worker: what is it this time a severed head
Me: Well if you must know Yes it is.
Postal worker: Nothing suprizes me any more thanks to you
Me : laughs
both of us Laughs.

They are good sport at one of the post office in my town.

 

"Ugh, I have to twist his elbow out of joint to make his arm turn that way!"

And I have caught myself using 'dolly' terms when speaking to people:
"I don't know, she just seemed a bit loosely strung. Do you think something's wrong?"

And nowadays I always seem to replace the word 'make-up' with 'face-up'.

 

"I have to go to the post office and pick up my body today, I have been waiting for over a month for it to arrive."

As I was heading out to the garage with my new female body, I said this to my mom "I'll be in the garage filing down these big boobs".

"Talk about eye candy! Look at all those eyes! I would love to have a new pair!"

 

Oh, no! You have gotten uneven yellowing! That is going to affect your resale value.

 

I told my husband that if I had to have a Minimee of someone I knew, I'd have one of him so I could see his face while playing with my dolls. He just said it was corny. xD

 

When I was opening my Dika Molin, I exclaimed (with my friends in the room and my mother in the next one over):

"Oh my god! He's so tight! And big!"

>.< Needless to say, I didn't think that one through before saying it. And just for those people who've got their heads in the gutters, he was strung very tightly and he's 64cm tall. XD

My mother was... amused. In that mortified way. My friends just rolled around on the floor, laughing.

 

Foot Foot Foot...... mostly when someone at our local doll meet up or friends bring there dolls over and we see the foot is turned around at a unnatural angle. Its almost like our battle cry.LOL

 

I've said, "Oh, dang it! Her arm fell off again." Several times. : )

 

No!! I should have sealed myself better

 

In the restaurant with my doll friend and quite a bit louder then intended.
"Man I gotta buy some more eyes! The ones I have aren't re right colour!"

 

"Gosh, you'd make an interesting doll..." (makes me think of that movie "May")

And I don't even have a doll yet xD

 

Oh, gosh, where to start!

"Wait, don't pick her up! I took her feet off so her shoes would fit."
and yesterday...
"Gah, I can't wait to get my first boy! Look at his cute little privates!"
I crack my roommates up all the time! I just can't think of any other weird things I've said lately.

 

"Oh, I've poked his eye out. I can hear it rattling in his head!"

"Can somebody go and get my hands off the washing line?"

"Look, his peenor is the whole length of my fingernail. It's enormous!"

 

"No it's supposed to make that ping noise when her foot comes off." <--Said that to my girlfriend the other night just as her mom walked through our door. Mom actually gagged.

 

I was on the phone with my mother talking about how my first Christmas in a new home away from the family went and the following conversation happened when I talked about opening my boy for Christmas:

Me: I knew they were anatomically correct, I knew he had a penis, but as soon as I got his pants off, not gonna lie I giggled like a school girl. I held him up and showed it too my roomate. 'Look at his adorable little penis' I said. Totally poked it.

Mom: *dies laughing* Hey, hun! Your daughter is playing with penises.

Dad: SHE'S WHAT?!

 

For me its probably "I'm gonna get a brain for him!" or "Ok time to switch your manly parts"

 

this conversation I had with my mom was really funny

Me: *on the phone with a friend* I really want to get a Hasekura someday but I want him on an SD17 body so I'll have to buy his head-
Mom: "you want to buy a head?!" O.o
Me: "yeah"
Mom: O.o

==============

talking to a friend (who likes/collects BJDs too)
Me: I hate shoe shopping
Angie: lol why are you shoe shopping?
Me: I'm not, just looking for shoes that I'll eventually need to buy (for myself).
Angie: lol
Me: do you think that red shoes would be ok for a while? I kind of want to do the Nadeko-thing and just have one pair of magical red shoes that look good with everything.
Angie: lol yeah

 

"I have a bunch of eyes coming in the mail soon"

 

This thread is awesome!! I'm pretty sure I laughed at every post (although the whole line about yellowing and sealing was by far the funniest).
I think the best thing for me was something my sergeant wrote the first time she saw my doll: "Evil, murderous doll in wall locker, SEEK HELP."

 

Since I know how weird things sound to non-doll people, I sometimes make them sound creepier than necessary. XD I once told my dad in a creepy little child voice that "I got eyeballs in the mail today--wanna see?" I'd probably get some guff for my boy being anatomically correct, but no one knows about that yet, haha.

"Oh no! Hoshiko's ear is missing! Hoshiko, where'd your ear go?"

"Noah, watch where you're putting your hand." (When posing him with his sweetheart, Evelyn.)

And, of course, I think of people's skin tones in terms of resin color, too. One day during the summer I was thinking that my brother would be either tan skin or normal skin and I would be a pinky-pale normal skin or else a white skin, haha.

 

BFF: *looking over to me* What'cha wanna talk about now?

Me: Mm? *looks up from computer* Sorry looking at dolls who are anatomically correct.

BFF: What?

Me:...They have penises.

BFF: WHAT?

Did I mention I almost gave her an asthma attack laughing?

 

This made me laugh, because that's exactly what my boyfriend would say too xD

 

Me:"I just ordered some new eyes!"
Friend who overheard:*Slowly peers over at me with frightened face*


"I've got a body in the mail!"


"Wow, that girl would make a beautiful doll!"

 

These were so hilarious! I was laughing xDD For me I was on the bus and I was talking to my friend on the phone and the conversation would sound weird to anyone not on the phone with me I go some werid looks from passengers >.< ME: "yea her eyes are the wrong colour......she is also way too loose her chest keeps flopping all over...kind of annoying she can't sit still....yup I am ordering a wig for her.......yea I really want the little girls so I can dress them up.....oh yea guess what I am ordering Cyril, not now but in a couple of months and I cant wait!" I noticed when I was talking that people were looking at me strangely specially a lil old lady :s and I was only talking about dolls :s

 

"My boy's head is in the mail!"

My doll's head that I send off to get his face-up done, that is.

 

"Most Fanfictions with OC's as main characters are thought of as Fdolls in a Soom world" I never thought that comparison would ever come out of my mouth XD

 

lol love the bus story something like that happened to me the other day only I was talking to my mom in the mall. We were going from one end to the other so a lot of people gave me weird looks. I was saying things like "I was trying to clean her face yesterday and she just wouldn't stay still, her arms were moving and getting in the way I had to wrap her up in a shirt just to take her head off"

 

Haha some of these are great.
I also often switch face up with make up. "Just give me 5 min, I have to do my face up."
And I have two very... "perky" females and often say. "I just don't know if I should file her nips down or not." or "Seriously I think you need a padded bra, it is NOT that cold in here..."
another is the simple "Do you think this fur wig looks realistic enough?" When would fur ever look real on a human XD?

 

hahaha this is great!!
I just got a new head and I said to my boyfriend: DO YOU WANA SEE MY HEAD
and he was staring at me like I was crazy untill he saw the head in my hand and finally understood what I was saying

 

" I was so pissed that her legs fell off, Now i have to string them back again"

"I don't like her eyes now, they don't follow me as I move"

 

"Not even home five minutes and your having a tantrum?" About my RS Song who flopped back and chipped a teeny bit of his ear paint from his fresh new face up. =A=;; Little jerkface.

 

Boyfriend: "What are you doing?"
Me: "I'm going on DoA to talk about my LUTS SDF."
Bofyriend: O.o.....

Boyfriend: "What are you watching on youtube?"
Me: "I'm watching how to re-string a body"

It's just a whole other language now.

 

Me: "He is so big I have to holding him between my legs just to be able to but the head back on." That was me explaining how troublesome it was to put the SSDF head back on.

2 days ago...
Me: "Can I leave this parcel at your place? I'll pick it up after work."
Friend who has no knowledge of BJD whatsoever: "No problem. What is it anyway?"
Me: "It's a head I need to send out asap."

Me: "sorry I can't go, I'm waiting for the postman"
Same friend: "did you get something nice?"
Me: "yeah, I hope it's nice, I paid $500 for that head after all."

Me: "I had to double wire his legs cos he kept kicking."

Lol many funny stuff when taken out of context XD

 

Me, on the phone with my Grandmother, when she was asking about my Impl Idol Gnaeus (Gabriel) who just arrived on Monday.

Me: He's a lot bigger than my other boys
Grandmother: So, he's a man, then?
Me: Yep!
Grandmother: Is he a really manly man?
Me: Yes, he definitely is.
Grandmother: Would your mother be shocked?
Me: Probably, yeah.
Grandmother. Oh, good!

XDDD I love my Grandmother so much

 

Best. Grandma. Ever

 

I love this thread already xD

A lot of the really weird things I've been saying have actually been rather recent with my acquisition of a Minifee Juri 2013 head.

Me- "Will you go to the post office with me I need to get a package."
My Dad- "Sure, what is it?"
Me- "It's that head I ordered!"

Me- "I'm going to be able to order her a body much sooner than I thought!"
My co worker- "You ordered a head not knowing when you were going to get a body?"
Me- "Well it's also that I want my Minifee Chloe to get here first so I can see if I really like the bust size I chose."
My co worker- "...."

 

"Romeo! Stop wearing your legs backwards!"
"How did your arm get like that."

And walking through the store has become a whole new beast.
"Oh my god, this would be perfect for Romeo.:
"If I size this down, it might work for the boys."
"THIS IS DOLLSIZED."

And don't take me to antique stores.

 

My parents thought it was funny when I said "Gah! The back of your head fell off again!"
"Why won't your wig stay on?" (it came with her)

 

I was sitting at a cafe with some friends and started talking about the 'half-dozen bodies I have in a bag under the bed with the heads in a drawer.' I am probably lucky the cops didn't pay a visit!

 

Well, these are things said over the course of a conversation by a friend and myself. I thought they were too good not to add.

Me: "You know, some boys have veins down there... and it's like TMI. Thankfully Iplehouse doesn't."
Tip: "Yes they do... It's very clear on the EiDs."
Me: "They do?"
Tip: "I haven't pulled down Alucard's [Chase's] pants for you, have I?"

And then last night when I got the announcement my head was in, a friend texted me "Bring your body". I replied "Out of context that is hilarios and I'm trying not to crack up because I don't want my parents asking questions."

 

Me: uuuuuuugh I can't do this alone! .....Daddy?!....Pull the body hard so I can stab the needle through the neck please (Wanting to put a crochet hook through the string so I can remove the s-hook)

talking to boyfriend:
Aren't those the prettiest little eyes? .. think I can pop them out of his head and use them? =D (a china doll had pretty eyes XD and I thought they would fit one of my yos, but I can't do that to doll lol)

 

"Be careful while you're dragging the body across the floor." My fiance said this to me when we were trying to find a place on the floor to restring a doll, and we both started laughing!

 

"Worst case if you dont like your new head you just resell it."
"I hate her hands, they are so big! Maybe ill buy her new ones"
"Look at Elin's boobs!!! They are so pretty!!!"
"I want a big boob body, I dont like a small boob body"
