Birdy Sky

 Nothing exciting going on, for the most part. Just another batch of pictures we got while out and stuff.


Super Flock! There was a whole sky full of the geese flying past, the honking noise was crazy. If you didn't really know what these were, it could have been quite a terrifying thing. Maybe I need an umbrella, at least?



Watched a marathon of Battlebots on TV one day. Everybody loves watching robots smash each other up, but one that caught our attention was named "Chomp"! The name is what got us, but apparently this was a history-making "walking" robot, with little metal legs behind that drop-able shield wall. The turret on the top can spin around and whack the opponent.


The first walking robot to win a match! The shield wall would do a good job protecting the legs, except when the hammer spike would swing, the momentum would lift it off the ground. Is this future-gladiators-history? Like, in the future-future, Robots will be like "can you believe in the past they made us fight to the death?"


Who wants to eat up the Target mascot dog? I guess it's not more cruel than your regular chocolate Easter bunny, but it still struck us as oddly cruel. I'll also get in the cheap joke to say that chocolate frosting is WHIPPED! [Whaa-cheee! (whipping noise)] The adults will get that lame joke.


Speaking of "adult" jokes, I don't think I need to explain what it looks like this bored doll was doing right in the package. In the kid's aisle!


Every once in a while, my friend sees something that "gets" him, like this Sugar Daddy car. I'll lighten the mood to say that yeah, the Sugar Daddy would have a sports car. And also, my friend is fond of Tootsie Rolls, so that's cool, right?


Seen in the Xmas clearance section. $15 for some sticks? There might be someone out there who is in so much need for some sticks, and so well-off, that okay, sure. If it will save me the trouble of going out to find my own sticks... And y'know, as far as sticks go, those are some pretty nice ones. And you get three of them?


It's called the Cobra H.I.S.S. Tank: the acronym stands for High Speed Sentry, so technically it should be the H.S.S. Tank, but that's not very snake-ish. It's cool to see re-issues of classic 80's toys. It's like it's nearly 40 years old but brand-new!


I'm going to just leave this picture here, and you can make up your own funny comment about these huggable vibrating massagers.


It's okay to eat your crayons! Finally! Joking aside, the color-able box is a great tie-in the the Crayola brand. So, good idea on the box, but terrible idea that this implies you can now eat crayons.


Why did this Barbie occupation catch our attention? Is it because we are curious about what type of movie Barbie would make? The idea is that it's whatever movie your kid would want to make, I guess, but I'm still curious.


Did you know that Snoop Dogg has two "g"s in his name? Do you think this tractor company is giving him any money for the obvious rip-off name "Scoop Dogg"? I mean, they even used the two g's.


Finally fixed the second portion of the candy pretzels we had. Used our regular sprinkles since the pack they came with was almost gone. This time there was a good amount of melted wafer stuff leftover, so we filled a spoon and sprinkled it up as an extra treat.


Don't these look great? I don't know if they sell the kits regularly since we bought them in a Halloween section a few months ago, but we might just have to gather the ingredients seperately and do this again sometime.


Not sure if you can tell by this picture, but this chicken tender was HUGE! So let's get a picture of it. Sorry that's the level of "interesting" we are getting with the pictures these days.


Funny that the Oscar Meyer Weiner car gets a... Monster Truck! That's a big hot dog!


Also saw this Hot Wheels car for Super Mario bad guy Bullet Bill. Note that Lego changed the name to "Boomer Bill" but Hot Wheels has no problem with the name "Bullet". If we actually had some Hot Wheels tracks set up somewhere, I bet this looks fun racing around it.


Later that day we saw a Funko POP! figure for the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile. Hey, we just saw the monster truck! Is the universe telling us to go eat some hot dogs?


Not sure if I've ever had a Strawberry & Creme Pie from McDonald's before, but they are back if you need to know.


Took a picture of the Texas Roadhouse steak we cooked at home. We had to chop it up to fit in our frying pan, it was big! The cooking tips online was basically Medium heat, 2 minutes, flip, 2 minutes, flip.. repeat until it looks like toast. It came out perfectly well-done and not burnt! And  yes, it was super good.


Our friend got one of these Darth Vader Lego Art sets for Xmas, but when he went to put it together, he was shown additional instructions online for an impressive alternate build which combines three sets into a massive single tall picture. These sets are $120 each! We saw three of these in the Target store and sent him this fun picture.


This light was adorable! We almost picked it up right on the spot, but don't really have anywhere to put it, so we re-gained our sanity in time.


There is only one thing the Snorlax says to the God of Death.


Browsing online and saw this t-shirt that was pretty funny. If I was in a store I would have taken this picture, so why not on the laptop?


Saw this outrageous Transformer name; this is printed on the package as Blowpipe. Is he the junkie? Like,... he can quit anytime he wants, man! Right after this last hit.


Another Transformer, this guy Paleotrek is a dinosaur... skeleton? On some level, that seems cool and creepy, but compared to other big metal robots, he'd be kind of fragile, you think?
