    All this fucking franchise fuckery for idiots with too much money. I hate this stuff. We used to play with innocent bricks that you could connect to build anything you wanted. The brick company has absolutely sold out, fuck them.

      They still sell ordinary generic bricks and always will. Lego is probably one of the best companies you could work for from everything I’ve heard. Yes I know that’s a low bar but it still seems accurate. Is every company that makes something you find expensive or wouldn’t buy a piece of shit? Don’t really understand the vitriol here.

      Came to say in this economy who the fuck got 200 to drop on a set from a show that ended almost 20 years ago.

        I literally saw two comments on this post and had a very cynical moment where I thought “God this is Lemmy, I bet both are negative comments” and look at that, I was unfortunately exactly right.
