  • They’re legal here, but only by having the toy removed.

    Candies like them were made illegal here in the states decades ago because there was concern (or it actually did happen) that a kid would attempt to eat the candy with the toy still inside and choke.

    It’s why the Wonder Balls stopped being sold here as well, and I loved those as a kid in the 90s. They were one of my favorite things to get when I went out shopping with my mom.


  • My favorite games as a child growing up in the 90s:

    Zelda OoT

    Super Mario 64

    Pokemon Red

    Zelda OoA/OoS


    Though after later playing Final Fantasy 7 in 2003 that quickly captivated me and became really special to me. It was my first Final Fantasy I ever played and one of my most cherished games to this day.

    Also, while I never played the original 90s game, I absolutely adored Black Mesa and the Half Life franchise. It was damn impressive what Valve accomplished with the original Half Life back then.


  • Not OP, but you tend to see these kinds of shenanigans from phones that are locked to carriers, the carriers are the ones who end up pushing the apps onto the phone during an update.

    Sprint was pretty bad with their bloat ware back in the day, when I made the switch from my Sprint-locked S6 to my unlocked Pixel 1, I never had that problem again.

    My mom and dad have unlocked S22’s and they don’t have these issues as far as I’m aware. I know if my dad did he would have complained about it.
