Funko should shut down out of embarrassment. Not about this specifically, just because of their entire product line

Manufacturing landfill waste should be illegal.

Hideous shelf trash that is destined for a landfill because they have no value. Beanie babies for gamers

As a gamer, fuck you, funkos are for freaks who watch tv and have a Live. Laugh. Love. Doormat.

Hey man, I wasn't insulting gamers as a whole. I'm saying they're the useless collectable like as beanie babies but targeting gamers.

[–] Cypher@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My response was all in good fun ;)

A term I think about often is "gamer with a hard R"

[–] Cypher@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Like most fandom types gamers who make gaming their whole identity are prone to over reaction.

You just need to look at the insanity of the pro-shipping vs anti-shipping fandom ‘wars’ for another example lol

Or reading the comments under a game's patch notes...

[–] bilb@lem.monster 20 points 3 months ago

Let me enjoy making fun of them! ;)

[–] ReCursing@lemmings.world 14 points 3 months ago

Wouldn't be an unreasonable point if they were not so god damned fuck-ugly!

nobody's stopping you from enjoying funko, just making fun of you for enjoying something dumb
