damn, Furbys bring back memories of Nov 1998
At the time, I was working at a retail store. And our retail chain advertised Furbys in their Black Friday add.
And I had to be at work a hour before opening
But, you have to remember, this was when Furbys started showing up in retail, and selling out like crazy
So, when I got to my store, that cold 6am Friday morning, there was a long line for the Furby's
But were sold out without incident, maybe late 90s people were nicer than now
And in all the hype, I did buy one and I kept him, thinking he would be worth more in the following years.
But I was wrong and in the 2000s , gave my Furby away

Moral of the story, sell high.
And the late the 90s were great


this is one insane scary looking Furby, I love it

All hail long furb
 
This is honest-to-God, the funniest thread I’ve seen on Kiwi-Farms. Here are my favorite quotes:

“put your money where your mouth is and show me one of those pages that tells us why only some furbies say dooby doo then, you useless dumbass”

“if you are horny i WILL find you and then you will be sorry buster.”

“people asked her to clean him....so now she never cleans him out of spite.” (Followed by a picture of a scummy, matted Furby that looks like he’s been dredged from the bottom of a ditch)


This is my kind of Furby. Instead of saying "Me hungry" in a cute voice, he says "Give me a beer, damn it."

“I just got off work, man, can you give me a minute to sit down?”
 
Can we get more shitty furbysonas?
I'd scrub and compile a post but Tumblr is burnt toast and Deviantart is a cursed swamp

Sure. I'm weirdly fascinated by all of this. Most furbysonas I see are 'quirky' in some way, autistic, or trans.

There are absolute fucktons of furbys customized to look like the transgender flag btw. Such as the custom furby below.

I adored my Furby. Even carried it around in a cute Furby backpack. Sure I’d turn him upside down and later feel kind of bad for laughing but I had that thing for what... a few years? I gave it away and grew up. It was a cute toy and I was the exact age demographic. But holy fuck at grown ass adults being so absorbed in a 90’s toy.
 
It’s extremely obvious to me that most of these people are autistic, but what I wonder is why so many of them are “trans”. I assume they’re transtrenders and not actual transgender people.

It just seems so weird that so many obsessive fandoms (Furby, Overwatch, Tamagotchi, that squid game) are full of autistic trans people who want to kill each other for having opposing opinions, or opinions that don’t fall perfectly in line with what the herd thinks.

What about being “trans” attracts autistic people so much? (I’m referring to legitimately autistic people, not the fake mental illness pissing contests these people have).
 
It’s a thing that some with autism don’t display as their typical gender or will think or do certain things like a man or woman but I don’t think being trans and being autistic are one in the same, but boy do you get a lot of them grasping at straws to be unique because they don’t embody straight up masculinity or femininity.

I’m kind of lazy to go in depth but go google “autism and gender” and I’m sure you’ll find your answer there.
 
Now I realized what Long Furby reminds me of: "Siren Ducks", a fetish so obscure that there's only about 2 guys that gets off on it.
 
idk why but the long furbies are kind of growing on me the more i see them in this thread
aww.png
I can agree, but I think it’s mostly because they’re so goddamn silly and memeable. And by that, I mean even more than the regular ones already are.
 
i forgot about those fucking things.
won one ages ago in some kinda competition and then lost it a few days later. they were relatively unknown where i lived so it wasn't that big a deal to me, but now i wish i still had it just because of this thread.

the columbine furbys are the most hilarious thing i've seen in quite some time.

This is why abortion should be legal :islamic:
 
I... I don't feel so good. That was a LOT of really weird information to process and I still don't know what to make of it. I'm gonna go lie down and unplug my router for a few hours.
