What sign of defiace is that, young queen? I have never seen anyone so hostile towards water, lol. Aren't you a fire type or something?

Also, great purchases. I see that this midway collection has Mortal Kombat games! Have you ripped any heads and spines off yet?

Btw, now you know the power of nostalgia, and you understand this universe's longing for the 00s.

@IceDomino aren't there many family friendsly web series

@Smth2024 welcome, welcome!

@Princess_Lilly No my version of midway collection doesn' have mortal kombat (Or I missed it while trying o beat my hihg score at Root Beer Tapper)
Yes we mus go back o thw 00's

@EllaTheQueen6 we already are in the 00s, I rewrote the timeline remember?

That's why I don't even pay attention to the news outlets anymore. It's very peaceful now. The hope will soon return to the land

Because I passed Pokemon Blue Rescue Team again.

Now I'm thinking of Golden Sun or Riviera. Or Metroid.

Fluffy Dreams Everyone

@Princess_Lilly None that I know of, no. Shows like Digital Circus, SMG4 and Murder Drones aren’t for the preschool crowd (and me, I find myself more interested in shows rated TV-Y rather than TV-MA like other adults my age)

@Sunsy I haven't been to a Hot Topic in years either. To my knowledge, the chain is still operating. I wanted to order a special Jack Skellington candle through them a little while ago, but it was pickup only and out of stock at the nearest (which is still somewhat far) location. I'm pretty much stuck with GameStop for limited local options. Though once in awhile Walmart has something useful.

I've checked for nori, but sadly the only store that would probably have it (also Walmart) doesn't seem to have any...at least not in the Asian food aisle. There is a local supermarket I can try, but I don't go there often since they can be sort of expensive. They do sell sushi made daily, so maybe they have some around elsewhere....

Now I have inspiration to make OCs based on the cherry blossoms and rubber hose animation.

I just see Valentine’s Day as an excuse for me to nom on chocolate. I’m aromantic after all.

@AnVold arcades were abundant in my home city, Puerto Cabello. Most of them were by SNK due to its ability to swap cartridges on a single machine. Capcom, Sega and Namco arcades were prominent too. Nintendo was the king of gaming thanks to the magazine "Club Nintendo" and the local bootleg famiclone was called Nintendo.

Anime series were prominent in Venezuela on terrestrial television. Paid TV networks broadcast anime before local free TV stations did.

@DipperMisterioPines arcades were abundant in my home city, Tula too. But I played Rampage and Donkey Kong in town of Anapa, where my family spent their summer vacation with me.
There was local bootleg famiclones too. It's called Dendy and Subor, and was made on Taiwan.

I don't remember much about anime on TV from that period. I just remember Pokemon on federal Channel One.

@AnVold Oh. Nice story. I am more like 2000s kid. Aughts were wonderful time many wonderful cartoons and films. Video games, along with American cartoons and comics inspired me to become a 3D animator. Since the animation industry is small in Caribbean region plus Trinidad and Tobago is less friendly to refugees, I decided to move to Spain to study and work there. And I still work in 3D animation studio in Madrid.

@Smth2024 I have a book repor soon. but I like book repors cause they let me choose the book, so last year I wrote a book report on Bloom Into You: Regarding Saeki Sayaka which is a yuri light novel.
Also I'm good today! You?
@Princess_Lilly Oh, yes yes, we are in 00's.

@Tyranexx I keep forgetting GameStop sells that sort of stuff, I'm so use to them selling games all these years. I still remember the surprise I went there to buy a game, and ended up walking out with a My Little Pony plushie, lol.

My guess is they probably order from a food company. Yeah, it's usually local supermarkets that have them, at least where I live. The few times I've been to Walmart, I never noticed it, at least my local Walmarts.

@IceDomino Usually Valentine's Day, I just get something related to my favorite characters. I very rarely eat chocolate or any sort of candy.

@Sunsy I got a Sailor Venus hand sanitizer from Gamestop a few months ago.
@Smth2024 Wahhh, you spoiled Paper Girls for meeeeeee (It's fine lol) And I'm glad to ehar your day is oging good! I'm doing what I was doing yesterday, talking to Seif and looking at memes.

@Smth2024 Yes, share meme :> (Also really it's fine you spoiled it, I kinda expected it from Paper Girls anyways)

@EllaTheQueen6 That's awesome. It's interesting to see it go from mostly selling games, to having various pop culture stuff. At the time, GameStop was the last place I'd expected to find anything MLP. New and used games, yes because they sold games, but an Applejack plush, now that's unexpected.

@Sunsy I even saw an Anya Forger lamp there, I really wanted it but I decided that I couldn't afford it. At Gamestop I just got the hand sanitizer and a Shadow the Hedgehog plush for my brothers birthday.

@EllaTheQueen6 That must be a really cute lamp! Still some cool finds, I would expect them to have gaming related merch like that Shadow plush.

@Sunsy I also saw a litle Pochita Chainsaw Man Winter beanie hat! I was thinking maybe I'd buy that for him, but he's not a hat person. He wears his headphones 24/7 cause it mildly blocks out sound and he has sensory issues cause of his autism. And he liked the plushie!
