    Internet validation being favored over... parental support?

    This seems about right also, if you consider how certain demographics are full of loud folks who want to create content without any sense of aesthetics or... intelligence..

    People who do that shit are the worst kind of trash humans. The crap people do for some "internet cred" or whatever is just beyond me.

    Internet cred is worthless. Kids have no respect for anything nowadays.

    Internet "clout". With sites like Tik Tok being super popular with the young 'uns and validating terrible behaviors with trends and the me-mes that give alot of people their 15 minutes of fame. I hope they realize that their stupid acts have now been immortalized in binary for the foreseeable future. I hope that when the Tik Tok generation grows up they live in the shadows of the the shames from their stupid clout-chasing acts.

    I mean, NEST Ratchets live in droves, not much of an issue for me (especially as someone who has the original Studio Series mold and didn’t feel the need to double dip.)

    No pics, but my favorite one that I've seen was an AOE Crosshairs that was returned with the plastic clamshell inserted into the package upside down. Poor guy stuck around on the shelves for a long time, if I didn't already have one I might have bought him to give him a home

    Saw this at my local bin store which sells Amazon returns.

    Looks like someone built the model then put the junk sprue back in the box and returned it.

    Well they clearly don't know how to do this. You're not supposed to put the correct figure in there...
