Furby
Any 90's child knows what a furby is, the adorable playtoy that you could teach anything you want. These little monsters would keep kids up at night with fear, saying the scariest thing possible. How could such a bad idea go so bad?
Just The Facts
- "Furbius" in Latin can be translated back to "Lucifer" in English
- Furby loves being in a microwave
Fuuuurby!
I remember getting Furby when it came out on christmas in 1998. I also remember taking out the batteries that night out of shock and fear. I'm sure that I'm not the only one that had the same thing happen, so if anyone has a story to tell about their furby, feel free to do it here.
I had to destroy the menace that was my Furby with a half stick of dynamite. Surprisingly, the Furby did have a death scream. A low, quick, "Blomp!".
ReplyThey are always watching, always judging, I DID WHAT YOU TOLD ME! LEAVE ME ALONE! HE'S DEAD ALREADY! HE'S f*****g DEAD!
Reply..am I the only person who experienced their terror even AFTER I removed its batteries? I mean the bastard kept talking after that...
ReplyHappened to me too
When I met my wife, she used to have a Gizmo Furby. It was a Furby made to look like the adorable Mogwai from Gremlins. When she moved in with me, it started chattering in the middle of the night, scaring the heck out of us. I pulled its batteries out and forbade them from being put back in, EVER.
ReplyMy wife's sister had a Furby that literally said "F*ck me". Must have been the Gordon Ramsay model.
