This recently paroled Barbie comes with a 9mm handgun, a Ray Lewis knife,a
Chevy with dark tinted windows, and a Meth Lab Kit. This model is only
available after dark and must be paid for in cash (preferably small, untraceable
bills) ..unless you are a cop, then we don't know what you are talking about.

'Ponte Vedra Barbie'
This yuppie Barbie comes with your choice of BMW convertible or Hummer H2.
Included are her own Starbucks cup, credit card and country club membership. Also
available for this set are Shallow Ken and Private School Skipper. You won't be able to
afford any of them.

'Middleburg Barbie'
This pale model comes dressed in her own Wrangler jeans two sizes too
small, a NASCAR t-shirt and tweety bird tattoo on her shoulder. She has a six-pack of Bud
light and a Hank Williams Jr. CD set. She can spit over 5 feet and kick mullet-haired Ken's
butt when she is drunk. Purchase her pickup truck separately and get a confederate flag
bumper sticker absolutely free.

'Jax Beach Barbie'
This 50+ collagen injected, rhino plastic Barbie wears a leopard print outfit
and drinks cosmopolitans while hitting on 20 year old boys lost at The Ritz on their way to the Ocean Club.

'Oceanway Barbie'
This Barbie comes only in almost exclusively in white and virtually never in black. She comes
complete with a Grateful Dead CD collection and several dogs. Purchase Ken and he comes
with a white hat and white robe. Also available, many different old Chevy Camaros on blocks
to put in he front yard.

'Yulee Barbie'
This tobacco-chewing, brassy-haired Barbie has a pair of her own
high-heeled sandals with one broken heel from the time she chased beer-gutted Ken out of Northside
Barbie's house. Her ensemble includes low-rise acid-washed jeans, fake fingernails, and a
see-through halter-top. Also available with a mobile home.

'Riverside Barbie'
This doll is made of actual tofu. She has long straight brown hair,
arch-less feet, hairy armpits, no makeup and Birkenstocks with white socks. She prefers that you call her
Willow . She does not want or need a Ken doll, but if you purchase two Riverside Barbies
and the optional Subaru wagon, you get a rainbow flag bumper sticker for free.

'Westside Barbie'
This Barbie now comes with a stroller and infant doll. Optional accessories
include a GED and bus pass. Gangsta Ken and his 1979 Caddy were available, but are now very
difficult to find since the addition of the infant.

'Amelia Island Barbie'
She's perfect in every way. We don't know where Ken is because he's always
out a-'huntin'.

'Springfield Barbie/Ken'
This versatile doll can be easily converted from Barbie to Ken by simply
adding or subtracting the multiple
snap-on parts.

(My add to this)
It's interesting how sterotypical, yet how true something like this can be.
