minus-squareLostMyMind@mastodon.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 months ago@Tronn4 @jacksilver That’s what I had. Just buckets and buckets of second hand legos. Some probably from the 1950s. Some were probably so dirty that they were permanently dirty. And I build a dino-cow. What’s a dino-cow? It’s a half T-rex, half cow. Because I can!!! Now kids are like “Here, build THIS”. My niece doesn’t know what to do with random assorted legos with no build. I told her to quote Carl, “I don’t NEED no INSTRUCTIONS to know how to ROCK!!!”
