Not even duct tape will fix stupid, but it can muffle the sound.

I actually had that cartridge when I was a kid. I had no idea they had become collector's items, because the game sucked. Not that it matters - I traded my entire Atari system for an Apple IIc system in high school. I still feel like I got the better end of that deal.

I was wondering when in the 1970's that doll was released. Turns out it was available from at least 1968 to 1976 (possibly later, but that's the latest date I saw). That's astonishing.

I hate that meme because authors, creators, artists, etc, must NOT, EVER, do what people want. They must do their thing, and if people like it good, and if they hate it, that's good too.
On the other hand, I feel (or want to feel), that JK Rowling is just trolling everybody. Or trolling haters (haters of homosexuals, or haters of "hermione was black")
I don't care. I still love Harry Potter, all 7 books, and read the whole series of books about once a year, and when I do, the images in my mind now look like movies, and I like it that way.
Always.

Definitely.
With the "Hermione was black" thing, while I have no issue at all with the casting for Cursed Child and applaud JKR for hitting back at the haters, her statement that she never wrote Hermione as a particular racial group seemed a bit odd to me as she always made a point in the books of stating when characters were black (Kingsley Shacklebolt, Angelina Johnson, Dean Thomas, Lee Jordan, Blaise Zabini).
