What can I say?

Minty is still hanging in there. We've been chilling in the self-quarantine for a very lazy few weeks, after a very minor fever and almost no other symptoms whatsoever. That's technically over next Wednesday so life will return to "normal" shortly. Normal, like going to work and drive thru lunches. The rest of it is still all weird. We were properly stocked-up so we barely opened the front door. There were some pictures in the camera of random stuff, so we can post stuff from when life was less weird. These pictures were taken when you could still go out shopping regularly.

Saw this in the art store and thought it could be one of those internet things where people steal it and insert funny text. Maybe something like "My Little Pony was relevant 8 years ago"? Minty is just glad to still be taking pictures at this point.





This is amazing that they actually included a bit for Thor where he got depressed and "let himself go" gaining weight and just not being heroic for a while. Why is the official name for this character "Bro Thor"? It's cute but it shouldn't mean to be. This was a dark time for him.


Noticed that this Lego Ninjago tread-motorcycle is super similar to the tread-speeder from the eye-rolling "They fly now?!" scene from the latest Star Wars movie. These sets came out at the same time. Ninjago did it better.


That's what we get for walking into the Quality Control area of work again. This T-Rex skeleton looks funny.


Was this Fortnite character on The Masked Singer? This looks very similar to one of those costumes. I won't spoil who was in it, if you haven't seen it yet.


Couldn't you just get a bowl of actual Hershey's Kisses? Haha I wonder how many calories THAT would get you?! I feel there's a joke here with the phrase "Family Size" and "Kisses" but I'm not sure what...


Hmmm.... How many people will be saying that Sonic The Hedgehog was the LAST movie they saw in a theatre? At least for a while? Hopefully we can go back sometime later. This was not that bad a movie if you were wondering.


This was in the Easter-swag section of Target and we kind of laughed at this squirrel hanging his arm out the side of the car like a boss.


Is it possible to put buttons on girl figures, and holes in the packaging, that does NOT look like you are a pervert touching them? Not to mention those song titles "Show Yourself" and "Some things never change." Haha. Disney was okay with this.


Parked next to the BIGGEST CAR EVER and had to get a picture of it. That's like our whole apartment!


Wow I took this picture INSIDE the KFC, so it must have been a while ago. Probably too late to get a Donut Chicken Sandwich. You're welcome.


Here's a funny thing that happened. We came across another neat recipe idea thing where you take some ground beef and squish-in some hot sauce, mash it into a patty and eat it like a steak. The patty breaks up in the pan, and when we spilled it onto the plate, it sort-of looked like a map of the Europe and Africa part of the globe. Our geography is not super-accurate, but it was funny enough to get a picture and share.


The Funko board game character Kool-Aid Man can move through walls! How funny is that?! Extra chuckles when we noticed it says "no added sugar".


Does this look like the love child of Sully and Mike Wazowski? What's going on with Disney Pixar these days? 


 Samway Subs? In NO WAY associated with Subway Subs.


 This art store was closing, and it looks like they lost all their marbles in the process.


Another fun thing that happened. What's that store over there? With the orange letters? Those letters are thin and tall, what a horrible font, we can't read it at all! Still trying to read it as we walk closer. Those people must suck at attracting business because nobody can read the sign! What does it say? Crown EYECARE Center. Aw dang they got us. Nevermind, perfect sign.


Everybody remember The Child? With no merchandise available when the show aired, and now all the stores are closed. This kid just can't catch a break!


This was a fake Saturday Night Live commercial made to parody the "how many bowls of your cereal would you need to get the same amount of fiber in one bowl of our cereal" brand. This makes a funny prop but this was like, a long time ago. Who else remembers this?


Another SNL parody commercial product. It was meant to mock the crazy bikini-women-party beer ads by replacing them with speedo-men. And it's probably not as funny now as it was when it first aired.


Hulk still holds an odd spot in our hearts and the mysterious Red Hulk gets a Monster Truck. I feel there's a joke here about Hulk and Monsters but I'm not sure what. Have I been doing that lately? Taking a picture I think I can find a joke for but not being able to connect it, and then posting the picture anyway?


Our left analog stick on our Nintendo Switch is "drifting" slightly, looks like the replacement is... $80! Ugh I guess we'll just deal with it for a while longer. It's not that bad anyway.


$20 for a wired controller option if we really need it. It's really not too bad. Is a Pikachu printed one worth $5 more?


Pretty sure that's the scraggly tail of our old pal Turbo! When he saw us, he practically jumped over at light speed to see us! It's like the happiest you could imagine a squirrel getting! We were pretty happy to see him, too.
