Anything?

I must be repeating lame introductions to batches of random pictures at some point. Maybe I could be using the same copy-pasted text, but that's lazy, right? Whatever.. Enjoy random pictures?

Caught a picture of this truck as it was driving away. It says they ship Anything, Anywhere, Anytime. Sooooo.... I hope the good guys know about this, because the bad guys will see this and think "Hey, that solves a lot of our problems!"




Is goat-sloth a thing? Saw this mad scientist experiment in the Quality Control department at work. It was much more clever than they usually get while destroying, I mean... testing items, so I got a picture.


J.J. Abrams. Some people might wonder: how is it possible that one single person could destroy both Star Trek AND Star Wars? Here he is! There's too much to debate about those complicated topics, but feel free to buy this POP! Figure and yell at it if you want to.


Star Wars is not completely destroyed; Galaxy's Edge is a step back in the right direction. Here's a shopping "outpost" from the Disney Theme Parks in a Target store. I can read the Aurebesh text it says "Galaxys Edge" at the bottom and "Shipped from Batuu" on the side.


These things would typically be found only in the Disney Theme Parks. They are supposed to look like authentic merchandise you'd find in a real Star Wars setting, so it has an almost medieval feel to it. Except that Baby Yoda Lego Plushie. I don't think they'd have actual Lego sets on a Star Wars planet.


How do you think a modern I Dream of Jeannie show would go? Could they even get away with it? And didn't they just make a modern Fantasy Island movie that was scary? Was it connected to the old show? I don't know, haven't seen it.


Awwwwww yeah! Updated Tony Hawk game is a blast from the past with all re-done graphics and stuff for modern gaming machines. Somebody might say "why buy those if you've already played them... a lot!" The simple answer is... because they are FUN. I know it's a guaranteed fun game so of course I want to play that again!


Am I supposed to hit somebody in the shoulder? Is that what they are encouraging here with these cars?


Just marathon'd The Originals on Netflix, which was the Vampire Diaries spin-off show we had neglected to finish off. In those shows, the vampires use magically enchanted rings to be able to endure the sunlight. So seeing this vampire wearing Ring Pops was kind of funny for us.



This story will probably not go over very well but should be fun. We saw this dollar bill on the ground outside of work, and just kept walking. We thought somebody else would need it more than we would. After we walked past it, we realized it would make a good picture to post, so we turned around and got the picture. I mean, look at me. I'm right next to it. How funny to pick me up and still leave the dollar bill? I hope it went to a good home. And we got a funny story to tell.


With today's media outlets getting all concerned with this type of thing, we saw these together and thought it would be good to point out that Transformers did this decades ago like it was no big deal. Sure they are giant metal robots from another planet, but they still tried to be "inclusive" by offering girl robots and robots with personalities matching minorities. There's no need to do that because y'know... robots. But they did anyway.


We picked up this kit to use on a boring weekend. Looked tasty. I'm sure I'll post messy pictures when we have a chance to make a mess out of it.


We were in a candy mood so we also picked up these green Witch's Brew KitKat minis. We've had some already, they taste pretty much like regular KitKats, maybe with a white chocolate. Since a lot of us "skipped" Halloween you gotta get your own candy this year.


Hmm... Monster Kisses and Vampire Kisses. Without the context of chocolate candies, neither of those sounds very appealing.


For those Lego collectors who don't always remember to check the books, there's an exclusive Tom Riddle minifig hidden in a book. Is that a very much Harry Potter-style thing to do? Magically hide something in a book.


Look closely and see it tiny on the box, the Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar has a Razor's Crest ship in it! That's the ship for The Mandalorian and The Child. Y'know, Baby Yoda.


Did you have some Spicy McNuggets yet? They are pretty good, make sure you get the Might Hot Sauce with them, it really adds some heat. Also, my friend was a little socially-embarrassed he had to look up who Travis Scott is, and why he would get his own McMeal. He's usually more aware of these kinds of things.


Are these the most adorable FRIENDS ever? I'll be there for you!


It was a pretty big deal to collect all of the Dragon Balls hidden across the planet, the first time. After a while, the characters were powerful enough to sense their locations, and fast enough to get them whenever they wanted. So you might as well be able to buy them in a store at this point.



I suppose this is a thousand times better than using a REAL frog, but still, this has got to be among the most-gross toys EVER! Hilarious text says there are 2 frog "refill" kits inside. Also funny it was next to something called Smooshy Mushy. So gross.


Super small G.I.Joe vehicles and non-transforming Transformers. Check out that H.I.S.S. Tank! Are these almost "too" small? You could use these with your other, larger action figures, and it would look like they bought some old toys to play with.


Another deep-cut reference. K.I.T.T. was the "good guy" main car from Knight Rider, but the prototype K.A.R.R. was a "villain" in a few memorable episodes. Think of it like Lore versus Data. Wait, did Star Trek get that idea from Knight Rider? Woah!


Nowhere on this package does it say "Target Exclusive" but this Transformer turns into a racecar with Target sponsor themes and the big logo on it. That's how you do an exclusive! But poor Leadfoot is gotta be thinking "Did they really have to put a target marker right on my chest for the Decepticons to aim at?"


One of the sour parts about Magic: The Gathering card game is that the cards are separated into colors, and when you buy them randomly, you might not get the colors that match your preference. So looks like they fixed that. Booster packs with color themes! Brilliant!


Ouch, I didn't know these things were so expensive. This package only mentions fevers but could you also use this thing to tell how hot your driveway pavement is, too? Maybe the sand on the beach? That spot your cat sits on the sunlight on the floor? Check your soup before you sip it? Yay science!


"Dragon Eye" doorknocker. How can you tell it's a dragon's eye? Couldn't it be any other monster's eye? I'll use this picture to send out a secret message to someone my friend has been thinking about lately, and wants to send some thoughts out to, but cannot. Sorry for being so weird but hopefully the right person reads this and understands what for.
