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

    It probably wont do much since i dont have any assholes to fantasize about.

    I used to love space balls, they just make 'em to fit me any more! My fave at the moment is my nephews cd with the laughing policeman on it, I copied one for myself and play it when I need a good laugh

    That's two nights in a row for threads like this, care in the community is clearly not working.

    Not toys as such. I did buy some Transformers DVDs a couple of years ago because I loved the cartoon when I was a kid. I was hoping I'd love it just as much as an adult. I didn't. Having said that I've only watched the movie so far (the original animated movie from the eighties). I might like the other ones when I get around to watching them.

    I probably would buy a Transformer toy or two if you could still buy the original ones. The modern Transformer toys are crap.

    *Looks around at transformers, comic book figures, different mr potato heads*
    ..............no :o

    I buy Dr. Who toys for my son. No ulterior motive whatsoever.

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    I'd love to buy my self toys like a Ferrari or a Lamborghini but they are just a little bit too expensive...

    i got most of the dvd's from the 80's. they've aged fairly well, especially the Japanese spin-off series. i know a guy who gets all the toys going, even the same stuff with different paint jobs and variants and such...

    as for myself, meh... i collect those painted lead figurines of superheroes, if that counts?

    Buy video games whenever I can but I must confess to also buying lots of Lego over the last year or so, totally stress busting and as someone else said, the more complex, the better. Has too be one of the greatest toys ever. :D

    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.

    Has he left yet or is he still ignoring you?

    toy model trains :)

    I used to collection action figures a few years back, got rid of them all though, sold, given to mates, my newphew inherited my He-Man and Thundercat toys (except Battle Cat, hes mine! :D) made a pretty penny from some of them too.

    Im buying myself a colouring book today. A jumbo size one. Should keep me busy for a while.

    OP are you not supposed to be in college? You should study in you spare time instead of obsessing over your asshole. At this rate you are going to fail over your asshole.

    I was considering buying some sea monkeys the other day because I used to think they were great, but thought of how uninteresting they'd be now..

    I did buy a tamagotchi a while ago though.:o

    I really want some Lego

    I've got a few lego technic sets I've had bought as presents or bought myself - my latest gift to myself is this:

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

    You wouldn't say that if, like myself, you lived in a house with 'Cat Pram issues'. Very very troubling..

    I bought myself a cheap RC plane a couple of years ago. Had great craic with it untill i nosedived it into the ground!

    Also bought a Lord of the Rings replica claymore sword. Official merchandise mind, 100% Taiwanese quality! I obviously got it with a mount to take pride of place in my hallway, but sometimes when Im alone, I take it down and give it an aul swing around! :p

    Reminds me of a line from a film a few years ago: you don't want it to look as if you live in the Neverland Ranch.

    Disgusting & infuriating.

    Proportion is all over the place. Look at the size of those two smug astronauts on the ground?....how the hell exactly are they going to fit in the cockpit of that shuttle?
    Where are the sleeping/eating quarters?

    Also the central fuel tank is too small. That shuttle will never make into orbit. Im calling the guards & writing a letter to Mailbag.

    Fuming.:mad:

    On the upside the OP could sit on it and have a good time without having the hassle of asshole men
