Homie, just buy the normal one and dunk it in a pot of acrylic. Hell, send it my way and I'll have it lookin' better than new.

Tried it. The carbonation causes it to have a lot of air pockets and the flavor of sodas is lacking without the burn from the fizz.

Let the soda go flat. Try using Coca-Cola or something. I will drink almost any soda that has gone flat. (Mountain Dew and Fanta Strawberry are some of the exceptions.)

That's fine. Sometimes it is an aquired taste or something like that.

Use really milked (instead of watered) down coffee. I would suspect it would be like a form of Fudgesicle if done like that. Black coffee would be terrible in Popsicle form.

I don't have a way to make my own Popsicles, but certain sodas taste good flat, tea doesn't make that much sense, and almost-milk-like coffee would be the most sensible.

For some reason I would try eating a Maruchan Instant Ramen Popsicle. Noodles and all. Cooked and refrigerated. Is that weird?

I don't touch alcohol, either.

My family has a bad history of drunks and people with poor self-control.

daisies... I haven't had booze in a while. I have the cheddar for it, and since this county is no longer a dry county, liquor stores are popping up. What used to be a gas station about a mile from my house is now a liquor store.

But, for some reason...

Meh.

My mom is pretty great when not anything. So her being drunk is why we can afford food, but I can't use my allowance.

Sarcastic hurrah!

There is no other FNAF Pop, that is why I want this one.

That was probably a joke and I'm too tired to realize it.

I bought one Funko Pop figure a long time ago and almost immediately regretted it. They're like the lowest tier of franchise merchandise--it's like, why bother getting cool toys of your characters made when you can just slap a template onto a deformed plastic bobble-child?

And they completely SATURATE the market too.

Sounds like the entire "collectible" industry in a nutshell.

Funko does actually make decent figures outside of the pop line, but like Cori said they absolutely saturate the market with mediocre figures, when they and other toy people can do so much more beyond figure with tiny body and gigantic detail less head.

Like, look at this

There will never be a Pop Funko figure worse than the Steven Universe Pearl one.

The Tennessee Aquarium has an electric eel that tweets. Its exhibit is hooked up to a computer that automatically posts whenever it gives off a strong electrical discharge.
