I would have been quick on the attack if it were another company, but Huggies have a good track record, which gives them a few Get Out of Jail cards, in my opinion.BloggerFatherhttp://www.bloggerfather.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389679439326917475.post-7746705087118947312012-03-16T10:03:22.991-04:002012-03-16T10:03:22.991-04:00Jill, hey, at least you scared my hiccups away.Jill, hey, at least you scared my hiccups away.BloggerFatherhttp://www.bloggerfather.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389679439326917475.post-5588557096957832652012-03-16T10:02:24.415-04:002012-03-16T10:02:24.415-04:00Anonymous #3, you call yourself a man?

Some people use it mainly to post pictures, other use it to follow their favorite brands, and others use as a tool for change, and probably each group thinks the other is doing it wrong.<br /><br />And although I came out here in defense of Huggies, in the end I'm glad this controversy BloggerFatherhttp://www.bloggerfather.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389679439326917475.post-31648718735851842812012-03-15T20:28:20.718-04:002012-03-15T20:28:20.718-04:00Totally agree.

I mean...surely the baby doesn't really have it in for dad's pants in particular, right? :-) BuJillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439582294571462742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389679439326917475.post-65388998650017237562012-03-15T13:26:25.323-04:002012-03-15T13:26:25.323-04:00I was deeply offended by the ad, and was going to ...I was deeply offended by the ad, and was going to go onto facebook to complain, but the game was on in an hour, and I was out of beer. Missed the game anyway, because on my way back, Sears was having a tool sale, then my truck stalled, and had to unleash the horses to pull it home. At this point, I realized my erection had lasted 4-1/2 hrs, so I had to seek medial treatment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389679439326917475.post-81201145881180308652012-03-15T12:26:01.721-04:002012-03-15T12:26:01.721-04:00As a dad myself, I say get thicker skin.
