    My dear older brother has found himself sucked into the Hot Wheels craze, it’s sad and frustrating to see. In one hour, he’ll make ten jokes about “Funko Pops” and talk about what progress he’s making engine swapping his truck and the next will tell me in complete sincerity he’s driving to a Target 90 minutes away because of a Facebook post he saw saying that some apparently rare and valuable toy car was a spotted there a few hours ago. I do not get it. I do not want to get it.

      I guess if he enjoys it, and it’s not putting him in financial peril, then it’s probably one of the more harmless hobbies/habits someone could have.
