So the question was this: with what are you aligning yourself? Star Wars? Marvel Comics? Dukes of Hazzard? Care Bears? Muppets? Pele? They all made a statement -- especially the bad ones, the thoughtless ones, the downright inappropriate ones. So, here, the 10 Worst Lunchboxes Ever, and what they said about the kids who carried them.
10. DiscoWhat it says: "You might think this is a lame lunchbox now, but just wait until you're a gay kitsch-collector in the late 1990s."
9. Wags and WhiskersWhat it says: ""This dog is obviously being abused, and this kitty is silently pleading you to help, help for the love of god. But you can't, because it's my lunchbox."
8. Junior NurseWhat it says: "I'm either very into entering the medical profession someday, or I really like playing doctor. Want to meet me behind the gym after school to find out which?"
7. Laugh-InWhat it says: "Hey, here's a show my parents watch that I don't understand! Because I'm six."
6. Pro Sports/Campus QueenWhat they say: "My mom has no clue what I actually like, but thinks that this looks like a generic idea of what I might enjoy based on clichéd gender roles and utilizing an early crude form of clip art."
5. RamboWhat it says: "Nothing is over! Nothing! Well, except maybe that point in my childhood where it's still appropriate for me to still be carrying a lunchbox."
4. Bee GeesWhat it says: "What I really wanted was a DISCO lunchbox."
3. Exciting World of MetricsWhat it says: "I don't get nearly enough math in class, so I enjoy looking at the same conversion-facts all through my lunch hour, too. It's also fun to count the number of punches I get each day, multiply that by the number of Indian burns, titty twisters, and swirlies I receive, and then tabulate just exactly how much my life sucks on the metric scale."
2. Hi!What it says: "Hi! I'll give you an apple if you'll touch my belt."
1. BlankWhat it says: "My mom hates me."
