As a child, I remember, one of my friends had asked me to get into "GoGos", some small plastic figurines that were absolutely worthless. Well, I used my pocket money to buy two figurines. Same loot box/playing cards trash. You didn't know what you were buying unless you take the plunge.

After having saved up for two weeks, I finally bought them, only to hear my friend giggling while saying saying: "Oh you're still into GoGos, they are so out!"

Two weeks ago, this guy hyped them so much up for me and all of the cool things that we could do with these worthless injection molded plastic figurines and now, he pretended as if it was silly to have them. Ever since then I have participated in exactly zero fads. Luckily I was vaccinated against these types of scams as a very young child.

I think this is satire.

the travis scott (popular rapper) x (in collaboration with) erewhon (LA county upscale grocery chain) dubai chocolate (chocolate with a significant filling of pistachio, kadayif and tahini) labubu (chinese plush toy brand) matcha (finely ground green tea) latte (coffee drink made out of espresso and steamed milk) is reportedly in the works.

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Great job. I’ll compound this with I live in California and I’ve never heard of erewhon lol

[–] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

to be fair apparently they're only in los angeles county, but I didn't know whether to write LA grocery chain, LA county grocery chain or californian grocery chain. now the middle option looks best, but i was mildly brain deficient at the time (as well as all the time).

[–] mriswith@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

erewhon (californian upscale grocery chain)

In this case "upscale" means "ripoff", it's $15 for orange juice, or a plain bagel.

[–] Baleine@jlai.lu 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But like, do they put the labubu in the chocolate?

that's for you to do, otherwise you'd get no joy out of it.

That’s the toy people are so obsessed with? Call me old or something but wtf is the deal with this shit.

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 26 points 2 days ago (2 children)

They are ugly (apparently in a cute way) and they come in those blind packages like trading cards. There are different colors, some of which are supposedly rare.

There are a million of these stupid blind box toys now, and this one just happened to get popular on tiktok or something.

[–] cepelinas@sopuli.xyz 12 points 2 days ago (8 children)

It is probably just me but that shit belongs in a mascot horror game, it is terrifying.

I don’t see the appeal but to each their own ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago

Nor do I. Beanie Babies were cuter and at least you knew what you were buying.

[–] breecher@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 days ago

There is never "a deal" with this sort of thing. It is all hype all the way down, this time combined with gambling. In some not so distant future thriftstores will be flooded with these things.

[–] Entertainmeonly@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think its all manufactured hype. Likely no one is actually buying these things, not even the influencers. Market your product as the new craze and watch people cattle along.

[–] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago

I've seen the lines, people do buy this junk.

"Is reportedly in the works"

How hard is it to develop a recipe with basically three ingredients (it better not have soggy knufe) for a small local grocery chain?

Shitty rapper who was popular years ago and a shitty piece of Chinese consumerist crap mixed with a shitty chocolate named after a shithole country.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Shitty rapper who kept on performing on stage while 10 people in the audience were dying.

Watch your mouth! Dubai is an emirate and a city, not a country, m'kay?

Not even, I fear - Matcha Latte is tea.

Like it's some sort of 7th gen fighter.

This doll looks so hideous. It's the manifestation of those creepy dolls from your grandma's house you get nightmarea from.

I thought the "Labubu Dubai Chocolate" was a meme, but I should've known better they'd merge the two in a heartbeat.

Can you serve it in a Prime bottle please?

Needs more Skibidi Toilet and Italian Brainrot references!
