so glad you have discovered my twinn dolls, if only by proxy
The “muscle-bound man” at the top tickled my memory but I just couldn’t place it. Then I get to the end and I understand, but I don’t want to! My brain is singing the song with those lyrics like the world’s shittiest Weird Al ripoff and it’s hurting me and I have to ask: why? Why do we do this to us? You, in publishing this? And me, in paying for the privilege of reading it? What are we doing here?
I’m not saying we should stop! But sometimes you have to pause, and take stock, you know?
“Wait, NFTs of Beanie Babies! The market is saved!
I googled “was there a beany baby of Alf” so you don’t have to.
This reminds me favorably of The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch and Ubik. Nice.
The Columbine Beanie Babies (fucking PLURAL) make Godek’s 9/11 book look tasteful.
I thought Goldie, Divorce Cat, Menstro and Fux were the names of the other old people and died, the real joke was also very funny but goddamn the accidental one I made with poor reading comprehension was better
I was maybe 10 during the BB craze and I spent some time hospitalized in Philly. One day a pro basketball player was handing out BBs to us sick kids and damn was he unhappy about it. He told me he was being punished and he hated doing it. Then my horrible mother made a pass at him and when he wisely turned her down she pivoted and threw a fit and yelled at him until he gave her an extra BB for her and Ive been asking God to rethink his promise to never again flood the Earth ever since.
