motherfucker-unlimited:

Americans fall for gacha and lootboxes so hard because they didn’t get their immunity early in life from Kinder Surprise

i got my immunity from those gumball machines with toys inside little plastic balls (in the 1980s and 90s when they cost like a quarter each) my mom actually legitimately seriously worried it was the beginning of a gambling addiction

she didn’t stop me though and i did eventually learn my lesson about how unsatisfying it is on the whole.
