Does anyone else buy themselves toys?

This being after hours, i dont mean adult toys but childrens toys?

Been feeling down all week as i was missing a guy who turned out to be messing with my head. Told me he like me, asked to come into my room and then ignored me for 6 weeks and probably forever.

So i went browsing around smyths toyshop as it brings me back to time where i didn't have to worry about life and what it throws at you. You didn't have to worry about men being assholes. Oh wait, my dad was one.

So i bought bop it extreme 2. And i really want Lulu the cat. Its a battery operated cat thats so cute. I moved away to college and missing my cat so i guess a battery operated one will do for now.

Am i the only sad individual or does anyone else buy toys for themselves?

Do fleshlights count?

All my spare cash goes on crystal meth

I think you need to buy yourself some cats because you are clearly on a slippery slope.

Fvck it. Get a pram and wander around with the cats in it.

Do games count?

Backgammon, draughts and chess sets etc

I really really wanted a Tickle Me Elmo but couldn't get hold of one.

I'm always robbing my nieces and nephews toys to play with.

Aren't you the chick who is living on €20 a week?
WTF are you doing wasting money on toys? You can't eat them.

Although I believe play-doh is non toxic. I don't think it has any nutritional value though.

One of these, they are class.

My brother who's 27 buys himself Lego. The more complex the better. I bought myself a remote control helicopter does that count? (Ah just seen the previous post they do count obviously)

I would think that is because you have a room full of childrens toys.

You're new to this interweb thing I'd say ( at least some parts of it).

It's like a vibrator for straight men. A manbrator.

Nah you're better off sitting on your arm for around 20 minutes and have yourself a "stranger".

I have found in situations where you are trying to forget a guy, a battery operated rabbit is much more effective.

After my nieces were here during the summer I got addicted to colouring books

I've been buying a few colouring books and crayola felt tips lately

Novella · 16-10-2010 11:01PM

Tbf, Bop It is actually a pretty great toy.

Dan Chipowski · 16-10-2010 11:07PM

Bop it is pretty good actually.

I don't buy toys, but found myself spending an alarming amount of time with my niece's play handbag the other day. In my defence it had lights and things.

Celly Smunt · 16-10-2010 11:09PM

i feel kind of sad since the toys i get most excited about now are when i buy an external hard-drive or something

Does anyone else buy themselves toys?
