These Should Be A Huge Seller

Someone who hates me gave my kid an American Idol microphone for Christmas a couple years ago.  I keep throwing it away but like the Friday the 13th movies, Jason, as I’ve named the microphone, keeps on fucking returning.  Now, the continuing stream of annoying American Idol merchandise continues.

On April 21st, you will be able to purchase American Idol trading cards.  138 cards will feature the four judges, current and past contestants and if we’re really lucky, Ryan Seacrest.  There will also be six autographed cards randomly placed somewhere in the trillions of packages on the shelves.

Expect lines to wend out the door and around the corner of your local mass merchandise retail store on the release date.  Seriously-can you even control yourself thinking about the possibility of having a pocket Paula that fits right in your wallet?

  • Not sure lines will “wend” out the doors, as I’m not sure what a wending line would look like.
    But I think these are dumb. When I read about it this morning, I just wanted to puke. The show sucks and trying to milk it with stupid trading cards is just annoying.
