    In the first picture, what was the constable holding in his right hand? A donut (or a danish)? A firearm? His extraordinarily large penis?

    Yeah I know. Ever tried breaking a window with a plastic block!? Wooden ones are fine ... but plastic ... whole new level of commitment required.

    I think he's a Fetish bondage kinda guy.

    Fuck - getting angry over a kids toy???

    Why even give that space in your head - there are more important things to think about ..

    Who's angry? My kids 5th Birthday netted some stash of Lego & Angry birds. I figured this would be hell funny. i mean look at my first post C'mon, its comic genius if I say so myself.. . . well I laughed [sniff] I'm going to go eat some worms.

    What I'm surprised about is how serious this thread got
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    Being brainwashed into a lack of imagination makes you stupid? Would hate to be your kid =P
    She's yet to earn even one tally mark on the wall so there is hope to brainwash her yet.

    And they really got into the molded stuff a decade ago. My little brother had all these robot things that I thought were shit to start with, but he made all sorts of things out of them in his noggin. He's just working up to the bank robbing stage once he figures out how to make his lego gun work.

    No, I think that imagining everything is food does though, personally I'd make my kids wait until they know the difference between food and not-food before giving them legos. I mean think how much those fuckers hurt when you step on one, then imagine having to shit one out

    Exactly, a decade ago I was playing with welders, not legos. 2 decades ago more imagination was required...

    Duplo. Harder to swallow. Dunno if it's still around though... even compatible with lego!

    When I first started playing with lego, heck approaching 4 decades ago, the coolest thing was the modular motor.

    When I was about 9 there was a myth that with a brand new set of batteries & a long flat section as a propeller, you could just get the motor to hover. (prop angle & downforce were not in our vocabury clearly).

    No one had a brand new set of batteries so it was hard to debunk, but it was a cool thought. Like xray specs & sea monkeys.
