Capitalism as the all consuming ouroboros.
Toys Was Us. Wow that made me sad.
all my homies hate private equity.
My parents never let us go in there, too poor.
Then eventually I was a parent of an infant and so we went there for something, saw it was amazeballs. Definitely bringing my kids here for shopping sprees!
And of course it shut down and never re-opened. Never got to bring my kids. Womp womp.
On the bright side, I lost my job too, so I could no longer afford to bring them anyway.

Goddamn corporate-raiding vulture capitalists .
Now with no paywall!
I went in there like twice as a kid, they were like this shit is too expensive. It’s the corpse of someone elses childhood.
Mine sells the corpses of trees during Christmas too!

The TRUS here got turned into an alcohol store. Huge. They even kept Jeffery up!
Haha, amazing. I hope they called it “Giraffe Liquor” or something
The one in my town is set up in the old Joann’s. It’s probably still haunted by quilters and seamstresses
A lot of them had the same reaction that I had to losing Radio Shack. I wasn’t there to mourn it, I was there to bury it.
I always though tRu was a shit store, been in it once as a kid and hated it
It was the same capitalist cancer we see everywhere, people are just old enough now to be sentimental about it.
I hated them because my parents never bought me anything from there. It was all for looking at. The rich and spoiled kids got that stuff.
It depends when you were a kid. They started appearing in the 60s and were still good in the 90s.
