Remember Quatto?

Front-worn papooses always remind me of Quatto. At least 10 years Gollum's senior, Quatto was the fake as shit looking mutant leader of the rebels on Mars in Total Recall. It went something like this: before getting a cap to the head, Quatto liked to hide in the stomach of some B movie actor. When Quatto did come out of the B movie actor's stomach, he protruded ventrally as if he was in some type of quasi-organic sadistic slimy papoose, with his chubby Quatto arms sticking out as if trying to grab things, in a weird floating state.

Back-worn papooses remind me of Masterblaster.

Remember Masterblaster?

The thing is that for a man to carry a baby in a papoose, it's obviously a chick magnet. I don't care if the dude's happily married or not - it's still a chick magnet. Other chick magnets are dogs and other children (see About A Boy).

As for the drool, I'm not concerned with that so much as the kid suffocating with their head facing the mommy/daddy/human-transporter. I like the papooses where the baby is facing out, seeing things, trying to grab things, kind of in this weird floating state.

Hahahahaha, you guys said "papoose"!

karen was just saying to me yesterday that she thinks it's cute when young dad's wear their kids as accessories in a snuggly or whatever those papoose things are called. personally, i think it puts the drool a little too close for comfort- i think i'm going to keep my kids in some sort of a rolling cage.
