    Looks like someone cropped out the K. $600k. You can save up to $600k. Kids are expensive.

      It’s like having an exotic pet that tries to emotionally manipulate you

        Kids are like the least exotic pet out there.

        Except when you try and take it back… oh uh, ah, uh… I mean “yes”.

        So like having a dog?

          The sounds a dog makes is far less grating to the ear than the sounds a child makes.

            That depends largely on the dog.

              It has to do with the high-pitched voices for both children and dogs. Small dogs, small humans? High-pitched voices.

      They were right, an abortion usually costs like $580. Throw in cost of gas and a milkshake, right at $600.

    This is the campaign that eventually led to them going bankrupt.

    It cost me $600 to never have to pull out again.

    One of my favourite questions to ask friends with kids when they are complaining what little sh8ts they are is: are you sure it’s too late to abort?

      I always joke about threatening kids when they’re behaving badly with a 64th (or so) trimester abortion.

    Oh man. RIP Toys R Us. I hope who ever bought/buys your branding makes good use of it.

      The Toys R Us in my area has just been sitting there unused to this day since they shut down. The sign is still up. Every now and then driving by, I see TRU trucks in the parking lot. They recently put up a big fence around it, and I thought maybe they were gonna be remodeling or something, but at this point I think it was just to keep people out since there was usually people hanging out in the parking lot after dark.

      I also know of a depot of some kind down south of me a ways that is just filled with TRU branded truck trailers. I can’t help but wonder if someone is holding onto all the signage, some buildings and the trucks to try and restart the company somehow. Cuz after all this time, I would have thought all that stuff would be repurposed.
