Is it just me? (Toy related)

or is everything today made like total crap?!!!

One of Damien's birthday presents was this Nerf blaster thingy and it is a total piece of crap. It keeps jamming and the pieces fall off. It really pizzes me off.

nope, it's not just you. I think we're expecting too much when we hope that a toy will last more than 1-2 months. It's so annoying.

So much junk out there! It's so annoying and disappointing at the same time. Nowadays I make sure that we open things very carefully bc I can't tell you how many toys get repackaged and brought back. I tell them it's been played with and s*cks but you still have to have all the packaging.

Sorry to hear that a bday toy is giving him grief.

total crap, that's why we have very few

Nope, not just you! I cringed as we head into October since both my kids have birthdays and once again they will receive a bunch of toys that are junk. By no means am I ungrateful for the gifts, but I wish everyone would just chip in and buy a great classic set of Lincoln Logs or something like that instead of 5 peices of junk that have a million stupid pieces that get lost all over the place.
