Didn't someone die, the driver of a car was trying to feed their tamagotchi and ran off the road?

A friend at work queued for hours outside ToysRUs to get his TG. I am sad to say I also got one, but I didnt queue.

I'm too depressed to rise to the bait after finding that a group of 16 year olds had no idea what the function of a flower was or even what the function of an apple was.They are doing double science and have been supposedly studying genetics and reproduction.

And if anyone says to look pretty or to eat you can put yourself in the corner. :mad:


Incog. :(

I had a tamagotchi. Really enjoyed it, but it died (really died) after a spin in the wash lol

I worked at Toys 'R' Us the season that they were popular, and it was bloody awful. Cheap crap toys that would break if you looked at them wrong. I remember kids coming in crying because their pet TG had died and stopped working. Come to think of it, the adults weren't that much better
