My grocery store has a tiny little toy section with very safe bets: Barbie, hot wheels, and Lego city are the usual suspects.

But very rarely, something so sick yet random will show up

Today?
They had a tiny little Rhinobot from sonic the hedgehog. Easy purchase. His little wheel even spins!

I would cut them a little slack if they didn't figure it out at first because that was many families first vertical disc drive

But nobody bothered reading the manual in that household. That's just common sense after a certain point.

The funny thing about Pac-Man is that I've always associated him with running and chasing but I would never say I've thought of him as fast.

It's kind of endearing to think that our friends brisk pace is more than enough to keep ghosts away. All he needs is a jog and and a few power pellets.

Hey, is there any nugget of Street Fighter media that shows just how Guile styles his hair every day?

Maybe a comic panel or a throwaway animated scene?

I have never really questioned the logistics of his hair before, I've just accepted it as an absurd video game thing.

But what is bro doing?

Amiibo were like $14 when they came out. Now, they are going for $40.

The mega yarn yoshi was $40 when it came out in 2015, how much do you think it would be sold at retail for in 2025?

Honestly? I think they'd try $75 and or require an NSO subscription to purchase

I'm a big fan of retail environmental storytelling. You know, like when someone made a clear choice to abandon one item from a different part of the store in favor of another.

Someone made the wrong choice here. The halloween figure is way cooler than the prolapsed booty-hole demogorgon plush

I'm a young but my even younger coworker made me feel 4 centuries old today. He is old enough to drink, yet when we got talking about our first experiences with Minecraft today, he referred to it as "like my daycare game"

I assumed he was exaggerating to be funny but, I did the math...yeah ouch🕹️🎮

I'm trying to describe what it's like to see this Sonic the Hedgehog x DC crossover for the first person

it feels like deviant art and tumblr have leaked out in to the real world, it's so weird to me.

Kinda cool, but very weird

Shadow Batman is so freakin edgelord

If you tried talking to me about "the dragon force video game" before about one minute ago, I would have assumed you were talking about Guitar Hero 3.

Wrong dragon force, oops.

(Not my picture)

But yeah you get the idea. You can get most of these ingredients canned to save on money, and nothing is easier than dumping a few cans and stirring it around. It's really easy, and probably very healthy.

Wait can someone tell me why Homer looks normal in Fortnite but Peter Griffins model had to be made in to sexy Peter?

I heard there was some tech nonsense explanation but Homer and Peter are built the same.

remember when every other store tried selling a poker set in the exact same "brief case" during the poker craze era?

I'd like to think some desperate salesperson swindled ol Jimmy Beast out of their remaining inventory that's been sitting around for 20 years.

I hope it was an Ol' Gil type.

Who wore it first?

Who wore it better?

What was wrong with men's faces in the year 2000?

Just hit it with one of these and it should be all better

Hey, do you guys think anyone was Lou Bega for Halloween this year?
November 1, 2025 at 7:58 AM
This is my Halloween passenger, his name is Boner.

Everyone say "hi Boner!"

I'm going to defy every safety standard of the modern vehicle by customizing my rav-4 with translucent green plastic so I match my jungle green Nintendo 64

Admit it.

We all did it, we all laughed.

You know exactly what I'm talking about.

We even lied to it's poor mother later, but we did it.

I just found out that they made a Mario kart telephone back in the day and I really think I'm going to pick this one up.

Now if only I could rig it up to a mobile phone...

Someone is selling a Steven Tyler signed version of Aerosmith's arcade game "Quest for Fame" on reverb dot com

1)for $20,000

2) this is how I found out there was more than one Aerosmith game

Kirby video games are wild because you're just doing candy-colored cutie pie combat for like 96% of the game and then they end with you fighting demons and fallen angels or some shit.

Hell yeah

They're included, they give you a sticker sheet so you can pick your design

The Lego sega genesis controller (or mega drive if you wanna be European about it) was a blast to build

This was printed out and passed around the schoolyard like absolute gospel, but with cultish undertones.

You had to be in the know to be worthy of holding the very folded up piece of paper that was our one copy of this.

It looked like this.

Why we didn't just print another copy? I dunno
October 22, 2025 at 4:59 AM
Alright this one is for a very specific demographic but if you recognize this super smash bros roster fake, you are my friend.

I sincerely believed in this when I was like 9.

Decades later, I still want to believe.
