Stomp!

More rando pics. Can I think of anything else clever to say here? Enjoy the fun pictures.

This Pikachu looks like he was trampled! But he... likes it? Look at how happy he looks. I almost felt a little bad picking him up off of the floor. We should have taken the picture while he was still on the floor, but my friend's instincts were to help him, and then take the picture afterwards.





This Walmart was a little more run-down than usual. After a minute, we noticed this sign. WHAT? This place was always packed?! How could they be closing a... Walmart?! We asked the door greeter on the way out and they are not moving or opening another nearby new fresh Walmart. What's the deal?


Sold! In Animal Crossing Our "Cousin" Redd had the painting that matched our character Katsushika Hokusai from Fate: Grand Order. It's smaller than we thought it would be.


Welcome to New Jersey! Please teach us how to do the telephone pole. There's all kinds of leaning poles around here. To be fair, this extreme example was after the tropical storm came through, and they did replace this one a week later.


Who else is a big enough comic book nerd to have issues with this package text? Did you notice that's the Wonder Woman logo and the other truck is "Avenger"? Those two things don't go together! Monster Jam indeed!


God Bless America! And the Olympic glory that brings with it three times the normal amount of Oreo filling. I forgot to check the expiration date on the package, you think these will still be good next year for the actual Olympics?


Squirrel Picnic show! There are a couple of squirrels who visit the picnic, but so far, they haven't learned to share. They chase each other away and now I'm starting to wonder if I should have a couple of these things out there. Is that too much?


Look at that squirrel sitting like that! The corn treat is almost gone. We put a new one out on Saturday and it's usually done by Thursday. Maybe Wednesday.


Oh wow that is a "deep cut" collectible. We all recognize the A-Team Van but that's the government car that chases it! Nobody roots for this thing.


My friend saw these markings on the side of this jalapeno, and had a nice daydream about sending secret messages coded in the side of peppers. Is this possible? Alien Theorists say... yes!


A nearby favorite place, Mexican Post, was finally re-opened! These pulled pork tacos with their hot salsa are the best! Oh... we missed you!


The shopping center closest to our apartment had a big grocery store spot that had been vacant for years. A few years ago, they opened an Asian food market, and a year later, it closed. Now a couple years after that... we get... another? This is why we do History Class in school kids. Good luck to them!


Another wacky coincidence observed from the random care package items in Call of Duty: WWII. The hardpoint emblem is the same coin going into that piggy bank! What are the odds that these two items would appear next to each other and spoil the lazy piggy bank artist who re-used that coin graphic? Busted!


Looks like it's down to two regular squirrels in the afternoons. One of them we've been calling "Crazy" because he practically runs right up our leg! Seriously, Crazy! Back up! You'll get your treat. The other one is shy like it's worried Crazy will chase it away.


I don't remember which one this is, but seeing a squirrel relaxing on a tire reminded us how we named Turbo, since we first saw Turbo doing that exact same thing.


Why is The Child so sad? Is it because he's a Target?.... exclusive?


Ah!! So many "feels" seeing the Clone Trooper with the helmet painted to honor Ahsoka. This is a lot to explain, but if you're upset that the new Star Wars movies were not as good as you hoped, you need to watch the Clone Wars cartoon series and by the time you see this, you'll get "the feels", too.


Minty-sized Magic: The Gathering cards! Does it include a magnifying glass? The text on a normal Magic card is hard enough to read, the mini-me sized cards should be near impossible!


 I know it's probably just this one location, but seeing the store closing signs along with the "since 1889" was just extra sad.


 We went into the pet store to see if we could find more corn for the squirrel picnic. We have a lot but wanted to make sure we could get more if we needed later. No luck on the corn, but spotted this um... Praying Mantis feeding tongs? The Praying Mantis doesn't want to be fed, it wants to hunt!


 Another hideous find, feed your crickets this stuff... and it makes them more nutritious to feed them to your reptiles. Yikes! That's harsh! Have pet crickets that you feed to your pet reptile? Anybody else thinking about Hansel and Gretel? But this has the bad ending for those crickets.


 Who would have thought they would make Fast & Furious Lego sets? But where's my minifigs at? The series has got fast cars but the takeaway is that it's all about FAMILY. They didn't get that.


 So many funny things can be said about this Batman. Let's see...
Where's the Bat Football? Is this Evil Tron Batman? C'mon Batman, you're tough enough already, you really need this? Red highlights on the abs, we get it; you work out. How does he fit in the Batmobile wearing that suit? Is he trying to be Batba Fett with that helmet? Batman? More like Armadillo Man.
