    Unsurprisingly, the L.O.L Surprise stuff is made by MGA Entertainment, who also make Bratz, Smooshy and Lalaloopsy. They just have a thing for extremely unsettling and weirdly proportioned dolls for girls. Also, considering we're in an age where we're now having a war on single use plastic, covering one doll in three bags, three layers and a plastic ball isn't doing anyone any favours.

    Fuck those LOL Surprise things, seriously. I can accept people liking them and collecting them, but just the sheer amount of unrecyclable plastic that's in a single one of those is horrendous, we're already polluting the planet way too much as it is, and now people are paying hundreds upon thousands of dollars to basically do that?! Seriously, if it weren't for the appalling amount of waste a single one (let a lot a set of 3, yes I looked it up, you can get a tube of 3, or a box of fuck 6 and there are limited edition gigantic ones ffs) of these things creates. Even Funko Pops don't really bother me, I'm pretty impartial about Funko Pops, and if it were just the capsules and figurines for these LOL Surprise things then I'd just shrug it off as another thing that's not for me...but that stupid amount of plastic really bothers me on a whole 'nother level. It just seems so bloody wrong...I'm hardly the eco-warrior type and usually don't get bothered by this kind of shit, but this blind sphere bullshit had struck some nerve I had no idea existed.

      Recylced plastic only to end up in a trash bin...That's even worse for the environment then to just trash the original plastic it came, from since it takes a huge toll on the environment to recycle plastic in the first place! I was actually quite surprised how bad it is for the environment to process recycled plastics and metals, because of the sheer amount of chemicals and other nasty things they have to use. Unsurprisingly most of the processing of recycled material takes place not in the country of origin but in China and other countries...

      Recycling still requires an immense amount of energy and resources, and plastic that's recycled into non-recyclable plastic that then goes into a landfill would actually be worse than just straight up new unrecyclable plastic due to the extra energy required to recycle said plastic in the first place, edit to add: especially when that recycled plastic was clearly intended for short-term use.

    Those little dolls are vaguely reminiscent of Mattel's Liddle Kiddles from the 1960s. I found a space-themed one in a thrift shop in around 1999 for 25 cents, mint, sealed in its spaceship. it was just like a Happy Meal toy essentially, but since it had the original tag, and since I was a former Mattel employee, I recognized that the logo was the old style from the 60s, so I bought it despite not knowing anything about it. I sold it on eBay for $380. 25 cents to buy, sell for $380. That was my business model in the 90s, I did that sort of thing all the time. God damn, those were good days. I once bought a vanload of "nostalgic" chewing gum for $85 and sold it for several thousand.

    @HeadsetGuy 6 років тому +5

    So, the first riddle is "Diamonds are a girl's BFF."
    Okay, first of all: It's "best friend"; who the hell says "BFF" anymore?
    Second: If it's "diamonds", plural, shouldn't it be a picture of more than one diamond?
    Third: How is two girls holding hands supposed to represent "a girl's best friend"? They're not even smiling, and besides, who says a girl's best friend can't be a guy?
    Fourth: WHY ARE THE PICTURES SEPARATED BY A *PLUS SIGN??* If it's a plus sign, that either means you add an "and" (diamond and girls), or just join the two words together (diamond girls). If it's supposed to be "Diamonds are a girl's best friend", why isn't it an equals sign instead??
