Say Bye Bye To Our Sidewalks: The Bugaboo 'Donkey' Is (Almost) HERE

Well, stroller nazis, this mofo is likely gonna go down in history as your coup de grace: The convertible Bugaboo "Donkey" stroller! Let's just call it the "Ass" stroller, shall we?

Anytime I see a Bugaboo, I know my first thought is: "well, its nice but, uhm....IT'S JUST NOT BIG ENOUGH!" Thankfully, the design engineers at Bugaboo have addressed that problem and they've addressed it hard. Cause the brand new Ass Stroller can fit two of your bebes! Or maybe four if they're rully, rully, small and can double up!? Are you allowed to do that? Who cares!

This bitch is actually a convertible stroller...so if you neeeeeed to pop it out to a two-seater you can. And it's actually the "narrowest side-by-side luxury stroller at 29-inches." YAAAAY!

Good news/bad news: The Ass Stroller is coming!...but not until next Spring.

The price hasn't been set yet, but we're gonna go ahead and guess it will be somewhere around a million dollars.

Congrats, BREEDERS! Happy Ass Stroller Day!

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: Stroller Lanes

image: William MullinOk, so yes this *is* technically a joke, but also...mebbe not such a bad idea? I mean, when you think about it, bikes are way smaller and slimmer than some of those double wides and triple wide strollers, and EVERYONE'S in favor of bike lanes! (oh wait...).

Anyway.

The only miss in comedian William Mullin's post about these fictitious stroller lanes is this little nugget: "The proposal, authored by a local group called Park Slope Childless Hipsters..." UHM, PSCH?? Sorry dude, but we're called BALLERS.

BREAKING: This Maclaren Stroller Shit Is The Biggest Thing To Hit Park Slope Since That Plane Crashed Here

Via the NYT City Room Blog:

"There are two major health threats in Park Slope at the moment, if you believe some of the neighborhood’s innumerable young and hyper-conscientious parents."

Wait for it...annnnd: "There’s swine flu and Maclaren strollers.” 

BOOM.

There it is, people.

Wow. Well I for one sincerely hope that we can all get through this tragic Maclaren stroller crisis together.

We will be posting info about any and all Park Slope parents stroller prayer circles (PSPSPC) as we get it, b/c as you all know, FIPS CARES.

ATTN BREEDERS: YOUR MACLAREN STROLLER *MIGHT* *Allegedly* KILL YOUR BEBE (OR, OK FINE: MAIM)

OH SHIT.

The stroller brigade is now *truly* Fucked in Park Slope: Maclaren is getting ready to announce a massive recall of over 1 million of its strollers (dating back to 1999), due to the fact that a hinge seems to be chopping off little kiddos fingertips. Oopsie!

According to the Daily News's source: "Parents should stop using these strollers right away," the source said.

Ok, true ONLY 12 children have had their fingers chopped off so far, but do you want to be lucky number 13??

I cannot imagine what the Park Slope Parents board looks like right about now. Cause based on my unoffish survey, (i.e. noticing stroller brand as I'm "accidentally" clipped while walking down the street), 9.9 outta 10 parents in Park Slope seem to be rockin a Maclaren.

Anyway.

Here's the scoop from Maclaren on how you can obtain the hinge covers so your kids can keep all 10 of their fingers.

FIPS CARES! (about your bebes!).
