Mindless amusement that will never send you a phone notification
When sociologists look back on this year, they’ll recognize that amusing little tidbits of entertainment are pretty much the currency of 2020. Electronic notifications and likes and retweets are all desperately competing to make our brains happy for just a moment at a time.
Well somewhere there’s a corgi dog with more retweets than the most compelling thought you’ve ever put together and all the rest of those electronic notifications are one biological implant away from being a real-life dystopian nightmare.
It’s time to step away from the screens and trade that electronic serotonin grind for the delightfully tactile simplicity of playing with a little tin of putty.
Have kids? Because them, too. It’s a real eye-opener the first time your otherwise reasonable child wants to spend three bucks to make some Minecraft pants a slightly different color.
Give that cube-building little punk a handful of putty tins and show them what mindless value for a dollar really looks like.
The cool thing about this 12 pack is that there’s a ton of variety and even just unboxing your way through the pile is amusing in itself. You’ll get see-through stuff and glow-in-the-dark stuff and marbleized stuff. All of it is fun to play with and each one is a lot cooler than the boring little blobs that used to come in the plastic eggs.
This is what mindless amusement is supposed to look like. It won’t even suspiciously ask for access to your phone contacts when you first open it.
