I was digging through my boxed possessions the other day, and I happened to find a couple boxes of these stupid ass toys. When I looked at them, all I felt was rage. Rage at the man who invented, and killed those cute collectibles.
Most of you have heard of Ty Beanie Babies, and if you haven't, then fuck off. Anyway, they were created several years ago by a man with the last name of Ty, which also happens to be the name of his company (what an uncreative bastard). Upon their creation, Beanie Babies took off somewhat slowly, until suddenly the market for them exploded. Soon you couldn't go anywhere without hearing about them, and you pretty much couldn't buy them unless you stood outside at 5:30 A.M. waiting for stores to open their doors.
But what happened to these "Beanie Babies"? well, I'll fucking tell you what happened. The dumbass inventor of them got super pissed when he saw his childrens toys being sold for hundreds of dollars. So what did he do? He fucking flooded the market with those sacks of beans. In essence, he shot himself in the foot, because once Beanie Babies became worthless, so did his company. The man, who was a hermit, probably has retired by now with his millions of dollars, leaving thousands upon thousands of collectors stranded with worthless sacks of shit. What a fucking douche face.
Sure, what he did was supposed to be a matter of priniciple. However, in actuality, all he did was fuck over thousands of people. Congratulations Mr. Ty, you are officially a fucking bastard.
Anyway, for the record, I made my money back 3 times over. But I'm still pissed, because I still have a couple boxes of these gay things, and they could have been worth something by now had he not fucked that up.
