I worked at McDonald's at the height of Beanie Baby mania. We offered several as happy meal toys and people went nuts. One worker stole a whole box - our manager made him pay full retail price for it, which was some stupid amount. I still have my McDonald's Crew Beanie Baby they gave just to the employees along with a snake which guards my monitors from evil spirits.

LOL, Beany Babies. Those aren't still a 'thing', are they? When are they coming back out with Garbage Pail Kids. They should do leaders of high-tech companies.

LOL I have a Fox Mulder doll guarding my keep. That and several micro machine black project aircraft and airplane models consisting of a Southwest 737, CRj -700 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics version, Raptor F-22, F117A, and a Continental 757 which was the very first A/C and airline I ever been on. October of 1988 to be exact. At night when the computer room isn't occupied the 10" tall woolly mammoth skeleton comes to life.

Oh shit! I had an astounding amount of those trading cards/stickers. My mom always thought they were grotesque.



When I took French I guess in France they have the fairy tail that babies come from a cabbage patch. Like here in the states we have the fairy tail about a stork.

What they should do, and I'm sure this might be a hit. Is make tiny talking Furbys.

LOL my Pale Moon browser wants to correct the word Furby to Furbish. That's their language.

I have this thought about the massive tote of old newspapers and mags I have. I bet, just bet I'll get married and wife will tell me to get rid of that shit. LOL! Well, I have newspapers from the day the towers fell, to Bush W's victory among other historical moments in time. My fav thus far has to be the free comic book of Rick & Morty I got on free comic book day. I figure when I hit that time in my life when I can't remember where I placed my glasses and/or taking my pills the damn comic will fetch 10k. Funereal pot and paid for yo! Shit, by that time a damn funereal will cost somewhere in the neighborhood of 40k.

You're 22 years old? And you can't get laid? Sorry to tell you this, but it gets harder the older you get. Well, unless you're Hugh Heffner.

Nah. Some stasi group spread rumors i have aids and now i can't get a girl via any normal venue in America. Seems some kind of swingers/snitch club keeps trying to throw glorified prostitutes my way but that ain't anything close to the life i wanna live.

Everyone wants to be part of the elite snitch stasi American sub culture these days, and if u ain't u can forget about havin a good female in your life cus deez females live and breathe to snitch/gossip.

Im a chill ass nicca with no tolerance for bullshit, all stasi groups be about dat bullsh*t so i continue to search. Really ain't goin well though m8, if only i had bitcoined!

You idiots just don't understand. Those Beanie babies are going to be worth a LOT... a TON of money one day. I'm going to be rich, in a $3 million dollar mansion, and you're going to be broke and feel stupid.

Just like with how much money I will make off pokemon cards.... and pogs....and old Disney VHS movies....

Both Beanie Babies and Slim Jims in a store that's open 24 hours a day 365 days a year. We are truly in the golden age of one-stop Christmas shopping.

People like to collect stuff. I'm not going to judge people for that, though I can say it isn't for me.

I know people who collect junk like this. They fill their houses up with this tacky crap and even display it like they’re proud of it. We have a lot of stuff but for the most part it isn’t worthless crap. These people can’t get rid of anything, they’re boarderline hoarders. They’re nice enough people but man, they need help.

The mother of my college roommate (late '80s) spent 5 figures on beanie babies, convinced that they were her key to getting super rich. She would go to every yard sale/swap meet/flea market in the south Florida area snapping them up. He tried in vain to tell her how stupid she was for doing it but she wouldn't stop. I wonder to this day if she has a basement full of them, waiting for them to come back in value.
