Cute/Funny Division: Round 1, Match 2
 |  |  |
Demented vs Scented
Rainbow Brite: Wielder of the Colour Belt, leader of the Colour Kids and their sprites, who keep her in a steady supply of Star Sprinkles, so she can manage all the colour in the universe. Seriously. Remember last week when you girls thought the Transformers and Voltron sounded weird?
Strawberry Shortcake: A doll that smelled like fruit. A simple enough concept but one that turned into a marketing juggernaut in the 80's that is still going on today. As time went on, more and more bizarre scents were being personified and you knew it was only a matter of time before they debuted "Beef Wellington" with his pet "Porkchop" the pig, or "Aspara-Gus" with "Garlic" the bat

Oh, I am all about Strawberry Shortcake - I mean, come on, who doesn't want to play with something that is also a great dessert!

Mmmm, Shortcake...
The only icon with ethyl-methylphenyl-glycidate.
Mmmm, glycidate...
Rainbow brite would get points for being queer-positive, if only she were more... uhm... queer-positive.

Gotta go with Strawberry Shortcake. She outdid the Purple Pieman and she can outdo Rainbow Brite. Plus she's the comeback queen - where is Rainbow now? Staring down an empty bottle of Grenadine and asking where her friends have gone...?
This matchup is kind of like watching the Lions versus the Packers on Sunday night football -- it might be a great matchup of the bottom tier teams to their fans, but at the end of the day it really doesn't matter! They will both get beat in the next round regardless of who moves on!!
Icon-o-clash drawmaster, I would like the third option much like I want the extra option on my federal election ballot in January -- None of the above.

sorry leendert, just as the girls had to endure the Voltron vs transformers discussion last week, you fellas will have to get in touch with your frilly side and make a stand.
Why don't you put the two of them on the screen and ask E-dert, (that's what I did for O-bear, she gave very clear and definitive answers)

they both make me puke... I guess Rainbow Brite is slightly less pukey... although I might be haunted by sleepovers with Strawberry Shortcake sheet sets.
as much as i hate both icons, my vote goes with Strawberry Shortcake. sure, she stinks of fake strawberries, but Rainbow Brite is more annoying and SS had a way bigger posse to back her up. a stinky posse, to boot. if i have to choose, there is my choice.
I'm not sure that Rainbow Brite wasn't queer-positive.
Considering one of the villains was Count Blogg makes the franchise startlingly prescient and relevant.
Plus the fake scents of the SS crew always turned my stomach. (My first time actually eating strawberry shortcake resulted in me throwing up in the car).
For these reasons, I'm going with Rainbow Brite.
