Broken Dancerina, which is just a heavy, stiff monster of a doll when it won’t dance.
Broken microscope.
No-go pogo stick.
Yes. 2.5’ is much too small for a scarf. My scarf is about 5’ long and it’s perfect. I can wrap it around my neck twice (enough to cover it completely) and still have enough left over to knot it so it won’t come undone.
One year, my best friend gave my boyfriend a $50 gift card to the Lego store. Two weeks later, we were in Disney and went to Downtown Disney. We went to the Lego store to spend his certificate only to find out that it wouldn’t work because the Lego Stores had recently changed their gift card system and anything bought before the change wouldn’t work. My friend hadn’t kept the receipt so we were never able to return it.
It was sized for a small child. Which ear do I wear the cap on and which ear do I wrap the scarf around?
I never knew anybody that had a working one.
raises hand And I loved it to death.
My sibs and I had a working Mousetrap game, and so did a couple of other families. I never knew of anyone who had a malfunctioning one. Sometimes we’d set up the trap for the sheer joy of triggering it, and didn’t even bother to play the game.
We did. But we never actually played the game like you’re supposed to - assembling the pieces as you go around the board. We always just set it up right away and caught mousies ASAP. Never did actually play the board game, I don’t think.
Milky the Cow. For some weird kid reason I wanted this toy so bad for Christmas. I did get it, and played with it for about an hour, total. The little chalk tablets made such weak, thin “milk” that I decided to feed her actual milk so I could get real milk out of her. That wasn’t such a good idea…especially a couple of days later. Never could get that smell out…
Nintendo Power Glove. It wouldn’t work with any of the games we had, and we didn’t like any of the games that it supposedly would work with. It went back to the store a few days after Christmas.
Ugg. This reminds me of the weeks I spent toilet training my cats. One used the toilet with no problem; even learned to flush. The other, ‘Princess’ Violet refused to the point of giving herself a UTI. So close yet so far.
That cow toy would have been on my list.
You only got a couple tablets anyway. My brother loved his cow. Now my niece plays with it a lot even though the udder won’t stay on because it lost it’s elasticity. This year she wants a horse, and horse toys. I don’t think she’ll be too disappointed when she doesn’t get a real horse.
Bah indeed! I’ve bought one, created an elaborate bio-dome around it, and not gotten a single mushroom. I’m convinced they’re a sham.
