WOW, Slime has been going on since '70's?

Another '90's stupid toy was Tamagotchi virtual stupid fekking pet! Honestly, whole mentality of the children on mass level started to go more and more gizmotic around that time. By the time we're dead or in care homes in our 90's, our great grand children will be marrying virtual animated figures legally! I know of random cases of that sort even now, but they aren't legal or socially acceptable. I also know of some cases even from over a decade ago where people have developed mental images of their on line contacts as their partners/spouses, and that's the way they refer to them in their real life circles. One lad who worked with me really made everyone believe that he got married and his wife had diabetes etc. until his mum met me after 5 years or so, and told me that it was all on line business, not real. He's still single, perhaps on his 3rd virtual marriage of the minds. It's happening among adolescents as well as adults.

You can stick `em anywhere you like I suppose its just another collectible, and of course if your kids are collecting them then they`re going to pester you to go back to Aldi and spend another tenner.

We had the slime also !

Oh, I see.

I bought their antipasti today (olives with Manchego and Chirozo). Delicious! I actually bought quite a lot of basics for food preparation there today, and only paid 52 quid. That's so cool! I also noticed for the first time that it is Parking Eye for their car park that keep an eye on the pi$$taking parkers. Personally, I have nothing against them, as I never spend over two hours in Aldi. We also have MaccyD in the same compound as Aldi with shared parking, but I hardly ever go there.

Yeah, I suppose the kids of the 70's and onwards would have. I'm pretty sure it still exists in the same form, if not in the same shape.

By the way, do those candy necklace sweets still exist or what??

I think these teeth rotting, no-nutrition-value-whatsoever sweets are from war time, and still in fashion. I used to go ballistic whenever my kids brought them in from some birthday party in a doggy bag.

I will write to Aldi owner with my strong objection, if they ever try selling it.
