A bunch of scumbags who like to ruin franchises for no f*cking reason.

EXAMPLES OF FRANCHISES THAT THEY'VE RUINED:
Thomas & Friends: At first they seemed to improve it, but sometime in 2017, some kid told a writer of the show that trains go places, but Thomas doesn't go anywhere, and so Mattel created BWBA (Big World! Big Adventures!), which in my opinion was the final nail in the coffin for the franchise, because the WHOLE T&F series was cancelled after Series 24, and then turned into the steaming pile of sh*t known as All Engines Go. Basically, the whole series turned into garbage that's made just to sell toys.
Bob The Builder: They turned a cartoony series into a realistic series and made it formulatic as hell, reminding TTTE fans of Sharon Miller.

In conclusion, Mattel are greedy nincompoops who do thinks that no one asked for.
Guy 1: So, why did you quit the Thomas fandom?
Guy 2: Basically, Mattel f*cked up everything great about the franchise and made it a baby show for no apparent reason.

plural: Mattel men

Not to be confused with a man being called a KEN DOLL, which is synonymous with PRETTY BOY or MIMBO

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
