No big deal most toys are woke nowadays too.

Buy a deck of cards and teach the brood a couple of games that you can all can sit around the table and play. But... there are some people who consider pasteboards a sin.

I’ve been playing cribbage since I was a young teen with my folks and on board ships etc... and I just don’t consider a counting game a sin. I’m not a gambler though, never took up the habit.

Spades, hearts, rummy, tripoli, canasta, fish, Round up the horses (i.e. 52 pickup), card tricks...

I have a few monopoly sets around but the only one that gets played at all is an XP based version I have on an XP laptop that I bought for next to nothing a year and a half or so back.

Toys are dead. Kids stare at their phone for fun. The toy business is like the Buggy Whip business in 1962.

I hope Hasbro keeps manufacturing the Biden version of Mr. Potato Head. It’s a great tool to teach kids about the stupidity of our current leadership.

When the Replacement Americans play with a ball in a cup, Hasbro doesn't need employees to oversee importing more complicated games.



A sarcastic look at "Ball in a Cup" game from the 'Family Guy' cartoon:

Now owned by Hasbro.

But they could be in TROUBLE (now owned by Hasbro).

Which will lead to much AGGRAVATION (now owned by Hasbro).

Close. We lived in a very, very rural religious area. Dry county, no beer or alcohol sales at all, can’t bring it in from a wet county. Stores closed at sunset, no night life at all................
