For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

Wow. Do you have a product name so I can gift that to people I hate?

Also, who exactly did you piss off to get that as present?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's called floam and it's an unholy mix of polystyrene beads and slime...

Thank you, the search result for that is glorious.

I'll probably need to look into setting up a dead man switch now to let everyone know if I get murdered by disgruntled parents.

Set it to order as much floam as it can and send it to your enemies, before the credit card gets cut off.

I refuse to utter the word and summon more to my home (also shyguyblue got you covered)

My baby sister bought this for my kids, she's awesome and they love their aunt. She's fully entitled to the comeuppance she's dishing out 😅
