Maybe that’s not a fair comparison. It’s not like these foam cars will do positive harm to your children the way pasta and cheese will do positive harm to your body.
Is this some kind of newfangled sociological terminology I’m not aware of?
@awk use of the word “positive” as opposed to “negative”, not in the sense of the outcome, but closer to the word “additive”, versus “subtractive”. Like, it’s an additional harm you’re introducing, as opposed to harm arising from the absence of something, say.
I think it’s popular terminology in… psychology, maybe?
still have the models i built as a kid in the 60’s…packed them away when i went to college in 73 and only unwrapped one when i moved to Louisville from Jersey last year…In the box are the munster coach, red baron, Badman 55 Chev, surfin’ garbage truck, beer wagon, Ginthers MPC honda, and other great ones…Here is the car i unwrapped, the T’Rantula…funny part is, the models were packed away in a perfect Ring Free oil box…which makes the box more valuable than the models, lol…
Mac and cheese is damn good for you --unless you’re a glutton who eats it every day. This promo reminds me of why I don’t take nutritional advice from Meh.
Maybe it was the 12+ hours of driving today, but I (and my SO) found the description funny AF (As Fun) - even blowing snot bubbles funny. Well done, @Dave
Sorry to necropost this thing… Finally gave this to my now 4yr old. figured out why these were on meh.
There’s 2 extra short screws and one extra nut (6 and 12) and if one reviews the instructions, you’ll see there’s an inconsistency between the Quantities listed and the instructions. Also, they never addressed how to deal with the orange side skirts, which are just left hanging! Photo suggests alternate assembly. One also realizes pretty quickly nothing will stay together without some thread lock. enter image description here

@Stallion Different.
The bleeding edge of Meh not making sense.
I’d go “buggy” building one of these Guess which one??
Ha, Meh staff, funny links.
For those that didn’t catch it, the image links for “the worst day ever for this guy” have each word going to a different URL.
@cengland0 and you figured this out…how?.. (grin)
@cengland0 yah, that model dude must not be getting paid the union scale rate.
Either that or he’s the boyfriend of the promo person doing the modeling as a way to get let back into their apartment.
@Kidsandliz Previous job building websites made me a little observant in that area.
@cengland0 oh. I had clicked once and it wasn’t until you commented that I noticed only one word had changed color.
@Kidsandliz I discovered it because of the visited link color change too. I noticed that only one word changed.
@cengland0 He certainly seems to not be having the worst day when carried on the back of a gorilla. In fact, he looks kind of happy!
Looks like a choking hazard
@heartny if kids are old enough to play with this then they’re not at the age you’re worried about choking
1st to hit “meh” today! Yes, I feel like my vote counted and was heard across this land.
Make meh Great Again…pretty please?
@Woody1 Damn’nit myself…need to make photobucket great again too…never mind, going to bed
@Woody1 use meh’s uploader and then never worry about running out of space.
College students are so easily amused.

@fastharry Yours actually looks like a car. The ones for sale here look like weird, ugly roller skates.
@fastharry I think I built that munster coach.
@RedOak you probably did…

@bleedmichigan i need to touch that fIsh
@Pantheist Definitely coolest fish ever.
When the wife says buy two for her classroom then says make it three. Then it’s a double giphy kind of day.
@bleedmichigan district? (It’s OK if perhaps that’s crossing the anonymity line.)

I want to personally thank the Meh staffer that spent the 4 minutes on this Photoshop job.
@Pufferfishy That’s the new intern, Flopsy. Has the same number of fingers and thumbs as the happy graduate in this picture
Yeah, Blah, Blah, Blah. Can your cars do this?
