Invasion of Tyler's Birthday by the Flippy Eye Doll

It was my brother Tyler's 29th Birthday on Feb 8th. We celebrated with a barbque. At some point in the night the discussion turned to Tyler's fear of flippy eye dolls. A flippy eye doll is a doll which opens it eyes when its in the vertical postion and closes its eye when you lay it hortizontal. They remind him of the movie "Child's Play." Tyler always decreed that his girls would never get any of these dolls. His wife Heather overruled his decision and bought Aubrey one of the most realistic flippy eye dolls on the market. Tyler now makes Aubrey keep it in a toy chest, and it is not allowed to be left out for the night. Being the understanding group of individuals that we are, we decided to bring the doll out and attempt to increase Tyler's level of fear of the doll. It started out relatively harmless, but as the night progressed we kept adding props to the doll.

It started out with a cigarette. I will also admit that the doll is a little creepy without any props.

Then she needed a beer.

Then we added the icing on the cake with a steak knife.
The elevated pigtails was a last minute addition. So after a couple of hours of tormenting Tyler, the party disbanded. But when Tyler wasn't looking Matt put the doll in Tyler's spot of the bed. I haven't asked what he thought when he went to bed later that night.
