For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

    Of the mess, no. But here’s a pic of Satan’s abomination…

    It’s basically tiny styrofoam balls that stick together, I think it’s mostly static electricity holding it together. Once you open the package, and start manipulating the biodiversity hazard, it leaves little pieces of itself everywhere.

    Much like herpes, and just as welcome. In my case, Satan was feeling extra cute so there was glitter mixed into the packaged santorum.

    It’s now day 6 after opening and I guarantee I’ll find little purple and pink assholes around my house

      Wow. Do you have a product name so I can gift that to people I hate?

      Also, who exactly did you piss off to get that as present?

        It’s called floam and it’s an unholy mix of polystyrene beads and slime…

          Thank you, the search result for that is glorious.

          I’ll probably need to look into setting up a dead man switch now to let everyone know if I get murdered by disgruntled parents.

            Set it to order as much floam as it can and send it to your enemies, before the credit card gets cut off.

        I refuse to utter the word and summon more to my home (also shyguyblue got you covered)

        My baby sister bought this for my kids, she’s awesome and they love their aunt. She’s fully entitled to the comeuppance she’s dishing out 😅
