Guest lvdkeyes Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 If corn oil is made out of corn, & peanut oil is made out of peanuts, & olive oil is made out of olives, etc. what is baby oil made out of? Quote
Gaybutton Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 what is baby oil made out of? Stork oil? Quote
Guest thaiworthy Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Stork oil? Baby "oil" is a misnomer. It should be "baby lotion," same same "tanning oil," should be "tanning lotion." But what about "motor oil?" Oil FOR motors. Lotion FOR babies, tanning, etc. Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Johnson & Johnson, who manufactures it, call it Baby Oil. How does a simple joke get turned into this crap? Quote
Bob Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Just squeeze the damn babies and you'll get some oil.... Yes, I'll acknowledge this retort is rather lame. Reminds me of the joke in the first place. Quote
Gaybutton Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 How does a simple joke get turned into this crap? But it wasn't a joke. It was a riddle . . . Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Actually, it was a rhetorical question. Quote
Guest thaiworthy Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 But it wasn't a joke. It was a riddle . . . That's what I thought . . . a puzzle. The way I see it, Johnson & Johnson "Baby Oil" is a proper name, so they can call it anything they want. Just like McDonald's selling a hamburger called "The Big Mac." Technically, it's still a hamburger, but it's also a trademark. Some may think it's crap, just like this post . . . Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Baby oil is primarily mineral oil, so why should it be called a lotion? I am confused. Quote
