Local News Pics

I'm not hiding the pictures. Is there something in the background that shouldn't be there?

I laughed when the background of the weather report, showing a live image of Times Square, blasted this underwear ad on one of the giant screens there. The poor local weatherman Dave Price fumbles to block it. No help from the production booth as they let the thing go on instead of changing the picture. They must have been laughing, too.




Hot Ones Pringles! They did not have one for The Last Dab. Unless those were all sold out? Either way, bummer.


I went to a Barnes & Noble on a lucky day? I guess there are still book-release things to make events out of. Should I know what Onyx Storm is? Looks like it's got dragons.


They put the word "unbox" right on the um...box. There are people who buy these random figure things, and they have "unboxing videos" posted online. People can't get enough of it. Watching other people open random boxes. Might as well call it what it is, I guess.


Steak & Taters. The best team ever.


I did find them both together. Non-Squishmallow Lego Squishmallows, and non-Lego Squishmallow Legos. Do they each count as a rip-off, or does the math cancel that and make this okay?


Have you been keeping up with the Disney+ Star Wars shows? There's some cool stuff to find there. It's Trinity from The Maxtrix, as a Jedi!


Good news everyone! That's what the Professor says to start of many Futurama episodes. plushies! Does Futurama hold the record for the show that's been cancelled and brought back?


The neat piggy bank thing from Squid Game! I want one that makes the silly blinga-blinga-bling noises when they dump more money into it.


They re-color one of the coolest-named Transformers characters, Astrotrain, and the new character is named... Galaxy Shuttle? Hahahaha It's like they named him with a thesaurus.


Wait. Was the car K.I.T.T., from Knight Rider, a Transformer all along? That would have been useful in like, every episode!


Here's a funny story. We had a plastic jar of jelly beans, from a while ago, in the cabinet. Let's check the expiration date to see if they are still good. It's on the bottom. We flip it over to look... and pop. The lid falls off, and jelly beans fly everywhere. D'oh! At least the raining jelly beans made a cool noise for a second.


I've never seen Bridgerton. Should I have been excited about this POP! Figure Penelope Featherington chase version? I found a regular one to compare it to.


Hi! That's the Traveler and Paimon is Paimon! Paimon is the highlight of Genshin Impact, your travelling companion who basically speaks for the silent protagonist player character known as The Traveler. Paimon uses illeism, which is the term for someone who speaks about themselves in third person.


One big claw machine with claws on both sides! It's so much chaos! 


I'm a huge Neopets fan, and excited to see new merchandise for it. But you have to think I'm seriously crazy to spend $40 on a RANDOM plushie. Who has that kind of money? To spend on a random thing?


Another GameStop, gone. This was in the mall next to us. One less reason to go to the mall, I guess.


They did open up a gaming store, so... one more reason to go to the mall! Here's a selection of Dungeons & Dragons meat snacks. Sorry for the blurry picture, they all had fun names I thought you might zoom in and check out.


I picked up one of those cracker/trading card packs I've seen in the anime stores. It was on sale and from a game I play, Fate: Grand Order. The cracker was tasty and the card is good quality, but I think they might be overpriced at whatever they normally go for. This character is the Summer version of Melusine. Not yet available in the American version of the game!


I started watching the "live' WWE Netflix shows on Monday night. It's been a while since I've watched, and honestly there are parts I really enjoy. Good for them. However, they do have commercials. The mind blowing part of the commercials, is that they use time to advertise... Netflix shows? On Netflix, which we already PAY for. WHY? I'm watching this on the already bought thing. And they keep advertising the shows!


There's the funny piggy bank again. More Netflix picks. Are they so all over the place, that I can't help but promote them? I do watch other things.


Ouch. Old picture. Hope you got a Shamrock Shake while you still could. That backwards text says You're in luck, but this picture says... You're not.


Taco truck! Is two tacos enough? if it was just one, you might as well hold it in your regular hand, and two doesn't seem like so much of a bonus.


To boldly go where no jalapeno has gone before! I got a "Star Trek Swoosh" in my jalapeno!


I guess there was a new Smurf movie? Check out dye-beard Papa Smurf and catburglar red-hat Smurfette? 


Burger King was rocking this mushroom and swiss melt sandwich. It's super tasty. So I thought I should mention it. It's for a limited time, but they've brought them back a lot, so next time you see it, you should try one.


Wings and poppers. Must have been the Superbowl. Did I skip the Superbowl this year? I normally post a bunch of pics to chat about it. This year was a blowout game with "meh" commercials, so maybe I did skip it.


I have not played Skyrim, but hey, have a Mega Bloks set for it! Somebody is upset this is not a Lego set! Hey, be happy. Some things don't even get Mega Bloks sets.


Hahahaha! What flavor is Post Malone? Buy some Oreo Sandwich Cookies, and find out! Post Malone is the guy that bought the ONE One Ring card they made for Magic: The Gathering, for an undisclosed amount (likely millions.) So when I see him promoting random stuff, I think... that's the One Ring money!
