A Barbie doll store? What is that supposed to prove? You are making my case for me. Chinese want Barbie dolls, so a company opens a store in Shanghai. Last I checked, we can still buy Barbie dolls at the local Target.

Again, what on earth are you talking about?
It's to be their flagship store.

You know, for all those $800/year "peasants" I keep hearing about.

I guess I'll have to be content scratching my head.

Flagship store? Okie-dokie. A company opens a "flagship" Barbie doll store in Shanghai, and that means we're all gonna die! Got it.

Where've you been for the past 20 years?
