Welcome to Beach to Sandy Water to Wet, a podcast featuring real reviews written by people who just need the world to know what they think.
Between you and me, I wanted to like this podcast, but I'd give it zero stars if I could.
Hello.
Oh, I forgot my labooboo.
Oh, my gosh.
I forgot mine, too.
Oh, that was going to be the whole thing.
Okay, hello, welcome.
Welcome to Beach, Sandy Water, Too Wet, the podcast where you read the worst reviews in the most dramatic fashion.
I'm sister host, Christine.
I'm brother host is Andy, and I'm going to find my laboo boobo.
I'm going to be right back.
Got to sit next to stinky boy.
Okay, I'm back.
I'm back, too.
I meant we're back.
Oh, me too.
We're back.
Okay, so show us hope.
This is hope, everyone.
This is my...
So cute.
My lobooboo.
It was a gift from good ol' Eva and Ray.
I couldn't decide who to bring, so I brought...
Oh, Jesus Christ.
She just brought her fucking, like, tree of them.
Jesus.
Lord.
I'm sorry.
This is my original one.
This is how Venus.
I like this one, too.
he's cute I have a problem I'm aware and I know everyone's some people are going to be horrified by this entire situation and I understand so many I have so many and it's a problem but but I've also become the person who gives them to people like when they say I've never had one of those I've always wanted one or people like at the Y
leona has like a friend who um has wanted one forever and her grandma is like I don't know how to get her one so I was like oh leona you can bring her one I'm like becoming that weird person who finds an excuse to keep buying them
I will say I've had incredible luck.
I have almost one of every single one, no repeats.
And then I just, when I, you know, and you know what?
I'll stop talking because it's starting to look like a serious problem.
We've got a whole episode to talk about your problem.
Okay, that's right.
I don't think it's going to become less of a problem as we talk.
Yeah, fair enough, fair enough.
Don't even just lean into it, you know?
Okay, it'll exacerbate itself.
Honestly, there are worse things to collect.
Okay.
Like sports cards, speaking from experience.
Yeah, you say that.
Yeah, we're trying to find glimpses of happiness where we can.
It's, is it working, I guess, a little bit.
I do get happy when I bring one of these on a trip with me.
I can't say I feel that happy from my little guy.
I do.
Hope is cute.
Don't get me wrong.
But it doesn't really like make or break a travel experience for me.
I got you.
Yeah, well, I brought luck with me to Egypt and got a lot of, like everyone kind of got really into having her there.
And then one of my first.
friends is a PR, worked in PR, and was like in charge of taking all the promo shots of
Labibu like in front of the Great Pyramid and in front of the Sphinx, you know, we did a lot of
kind of personal in-group marketing for my keychain. Yes, you did. And that's a normal
thing that happens sometimes. And then you like dragged a bunch of other people into your world of
Labuboos. And now I'm visiting them and I'm handing them out like here because I'm ill. Yeah.
So comment below for a chance to win of one of her Furn the boo-boos.
No, seriously, if you need one, hit me up.
I want to add, well, I want to add their 2799 when I, because people always think that
they're like, when they're resold.
No, that's true.
Super expensive.
When she told me she bought 12 or something, I don't know how many she has, I was like,
aren't those like really expensive, but only because like resale, people are charging a crazy
amount for them?
Yeah, and sometimes they're hard to find.
So I have my little secret games that I play to get them.
They're just like 27, just, they're 27 bucks for a friggin keychain.
So don't get me wrong.
I see the error of my ways in that sense.
But, you know, it's been kind of my outlet this year.
So I just, I love the little guys.
And they've brought you lots of joy.
That's right.
That's right.
Who cares?
Well, a lot of people do care because we're reading reviews of the boos.
And there's some weird stuff.
Yes, there was.
Yeah.
Do you want to get started?
I was going to write. I thought you'd never ask. Remember when you said, oh, there's nothing
wrong with collecting them. Well, you're wrong because there's a, Abby, she or her sent in a literal
think piece. And I thought, well, I'm not going to read a think piece. It's not really a review.
Oh, it's a review. It's a one-star review in the form of a think piece by someone named Laura Rosenberg.
And I'm going to read the title to you here to give you an idea. It's called Beware the Cute Little
monster, Labubu, the devil, and our children's souls.
Shit.
Okay, we're going right into the demons.
I love it.
That's right.
Oh, I should add, this is from the website, Catholic 365.com.
Oh, no.
That exists.
I hate that.
Yeah.
And I was going to say this at the end, but I guess I'll mention it now.
My favorite part is that within the email, Abby wrote, um, being Catholic sounds
exhausting.
And I was like, thank you.
That's probably the best take I've heard.
That's a good way to put it.
It's very tiring.
I wonder that, like Boston are so mad, you know,
They're just like tired all the time from being this fucking Catholics.
Yeah, it makes sense.
And like you're pent up.
And then the, no wonder it amplifies OCD.
It's like, you know, there's just a lot there that's tough.
And so, you know, Laura wants to make sure that we're keeping on top of our children's souls.
And I have a review here for you.
This was written in July of this year.
I'm not writing this to be dramatic.
By the way, that sounds like every like letter that I've written someone dramatically.
Just saying, I'm not writing this to be dramatic.
I'm writing this because I'm a mother, a Catholic, and someone who sees what's creeping into our culture under the guise of cute.
Labu is a little creature made by Potmart.
If you haven't seen it, it looks like a goblin with a grin full of teeth.
It's unsettling.
It has spiky hair, big eyes, and a devilish face.
And yet, it's everywhere.
Jump scare.
On backpacks, in kids' bedrooms, in Christine's office.
Sorry.
In kids' bedrooms?
Yeah, please.
Like, don't, yeah, I'm not being dramatic.
It's creepy.
They're just in my child's bed.
They're in your child's bed under the covers.
Like, what the hell?
On backpacks, in kids' bedrooms, and on social media.
People call it adorable, endearing, quirky.
But what I see is a spiritual red flag.
We are allowing the enemy, capital E, to slither in through the back door.
Uh-oh.
Disguised in glitter and marketed.
in blind boxes.
We're letting our children cozy up to things that mock
innocence and glorify darkness.
Isn't it yours called Hope, Alexander?
What is wrong with this person?
No, it's religious psychosis.
All these fuckers.
Serenity, hope, love.
It pisses me off.
It's so bad, and it's, like, harmful, these fuckers.
There's one called Zaza, and that's, like, close to Zozo.
So that's, like, the closest I can see.
There were, like, Christina, the theories about, what is it,
Pizzu.
there are people there's so many things about how like oh that's demonic it has demonic origins
because fucking like tick people on tic talk and shit are saying that and it's like none of that
is true it's actually it was created by someone from hong kong i think who is was inspired by
nordic like mythology um these little like troll guys yeah and it's like cool like okay
that's fun there will they're minions of the devil also forgot to add that just kidding they're not
Oh, I was like, oh, shit, I didn't read that.
They're literally like little trolls.
Like, it's like insane.
Like people think that these stupid little creepy, creepy dolls.
Yeah.
Anyway.
At center, they're actually quirky.
Quirky dolls.
Okay.
And they're slithering through the back door.
Okay.
Don't say that again.
I didn't.
Laura said it.
Yeah, you repeated it for some reason.
You're like, and they're slathering through the back door.
Letting our children cozy up to things that mock in.
and glorified darkness, don't believe me? Look around. How many toys now embrace the aesthetic
of horror? How many kids' shows glorify monsters, witches, and demons? Funny, very funny, actually,
with K-pop demon. K-pop demon hunters. Yeah, fair enough. And demons as misunderstood buddies.
And how often are parents brushing it off as just a phase? The devil is subtle.
He doesn't show up with horns and a pitchfork.
No, he shows up with a winking eye, wrapped in shiny packaging.
He makes the grotesque, appealing.
And when we let these images nestle into our children's hearts,
we open the door to confusion, fear, and spiritual desensitization as Catholics.
What the fuck is that?
How do I sign up for that?
Spiritual desensitization.
Where's the therapy for that?
Yeah, it's like, yeah, move aside conversion therapy.
Let's do desensitization therapy.
Opposite, yes.
Please.
As Catholics, we are called to protect the innocence of our children to guard their hearts.
And that doesn't just mean keeping them from explicit evil.
I'm so sorry.
I just can't stop thinking about the literal evil in the world.
And then like someone's writing a think piece about these stupid stuffed animals.
Yeah.
If they were even like actual devils, I'd be like, find a hobby.
get mad about something else and do something like and like what is this little thing doing to your
child i more so than what your fucking rhetoric does nothing exactly and like maybe a school shooter
jesus christ i'm sorry i hate this like we must protect our really must we you know must we
that's our job to protect our children we're okay then let's do it get a fucking new way you know
i don't know find a new hobby okay as catholics we are called to protect the
innocence of our children to guard their hearts, and that doesn't just mean keeping them from
explicit evil. It means being discerning with the subtle stuff, the stuff that looks like art,
like fun, like trendiness. But underneath, it reeks. We have saints who cast out demons. We have
sacraments that protect our homes, and we have a church that knows spiritual warfare is real.
Let's start acting like it. Our kids don't need more creepy collectibles. I mean, they don't need more.
That is the one line I agree. I agree. None of us need more.
I especially don't need more.
I love how they're like,
we're at war with Labibus.
Please.
Like, honestly, that is one army.
Maybe I would sign up for it.
The Labibu Army.
Like, fucking draft me already, okay?
Christina, not, that draws me.
You'll be the first with that collection.
They're like, oh, yeah, this crazy bitch is on our side for sure.
Yeah, you know, the Lilliputians?
It's like, they're going to wake up and carry me to wherever, you know, to the
battlefield.
Our kids don't need more creepy collectibles.
They need stories of virtue, courage, and truth.
They need to know that monsters aren't friends, they're foes.
And that Jesus Christ, not some toothy gremlin, is a hero worth clinging to.
End of review.
Why don't you just give your kids like Jesus?
Oh my God, I'm sure those would go so well.
It's like kids' bop, but like for creepy stuffed animals and they're like, no, now they have halos.
and they look kind of like a whitewashed Jesus.
And that actually is really cool and good.
And you can put it on your backpack, honey, if you want.
Oh, my God, how embarrassing.
This is so insane.
I mean, obviously it's insane.
But like the whole warfare aspect, the idea that they're fighting for something with this is insane.
Yeah.
Well, you're not.
You're just being a fucking crazy person.
I mean, imagine after you die and then you go to like the beyond and you're up there and they're like, let's do a life review on like,
what you really put your energy.
And Pazuzu's like, wow, you got us.
You nailed it.
You nailed it with these Labubu things.
You're the only one to get it right.
Welcome to hell you saw right through us.
I don't know.
It's just, yeah, it's bananas.
So that's my opening, opening statement.
Yeah, that one, that one kind of sets the tone because I, not my first ones, but I
definitely have some of that content.
But speaking to a point of yours where they were saying about the monsters, like, oh, we
shouldn't be cozying up to.
the monsters, I don't know what they said, but someone I saw on Facebook made a point about that
saying, where were they when like, where the wild things are?
Good boy.
Certain books like that.
There's so many things that.
Monsters love underpants?
Over the years.
That's a classic.
Like, it's so, the way they pick and choose based on whatever is trending, it's like
monster energy when that was the whole thing.
But that wasn't even like the Catholics.
Like the Catholics are interested in this.
Like, come on.
Yeah.
This is fucking ridiculous.
This smacks.
this smacks of like just a personal irritation that has been then co-opted into a larger statement
it's just kind of like okay laura whatever you say they probably saw some tic-tok video that was
making like really weird loose connections well they probably have a child who wants one or something
you know oh yeah a lot of comments were like they're just mad they couldn't get one
exactly and you know what they could have just called me and i wouldn't have answered but if you
text me the secret code yeah text me the code
it's 666 and then I'll send you your very own Angelic Labivu.
Good call.
We'll never text that.
I mean, look at this guy.
Could he be up to anything wrong?
It's creepy.
It looks like it's sleeping, so I don't know.
Yeah, that's like how Leona looks when she's pretending to sleep, where she just goes like this and goes,
and we're like, are you pretending to sleep?
Are you having like an asthma attack?
That's kind of how he looks.
She's just like, they're clearly lying in ways.
to these guys.
Yes.
You know.
That is true.
That I wouldn't be surprised by.
My first one here, this is from Elise and Matt.
This is a one-star review on Amazon.
Here we go.
Verified purchase.
Box was broken and it looked like it was dragged behind the Amazon truck.
The actual terrifying toy was fine.
My son will love this ugly guy.
End of review.
One star.
You know what, Laura?
I think your kids would love this ugly guy too,
but you just don't even give him a chance.
chance that's the problem that's the problem the kids like something you can't have that when
you're catholic no certain oh you know what yeah there's the second anyone gets excited a child gets
excited about something like oh oh devil's here you know yeah if only our dad would have been
convinced that beanie before he spent all that money on the fake ones yeah and the thing with that
is like now they have lafufu's right which are the fake ones oh he probably has a whole lafou
collection he might honestly i bet you they're everywhere over there um because he came back with all
these, he came back with a laundry basket full of fake beanie babies. To be clear, our dad
worked a lot, traveled to China for work a lot. Yeah. Do you say that? Okay. He was an eBay
collector. You just said he came back. It's like he went off like, he was like going to get a
gallon of milk and came back with a bunch of fake beanie babies. Yeah, he, we thought he was
getting cigarettes at the, at the corner store. And he came back with a laundry basket of
beanie babies. No, but he was like, I quit smoking when I was seven. I didn't like my
grandfather cigars. That's a real story. I'm like, okay, dad. But so he did go to China
often and he would come back with a range of surprises.
The Beanie Babies were one big one that really haunted us.
Man, if we were growing up now, the amount of Lafoufus we might have.
That's the thing.
And I was going to say, too, like, now Lafoufis are, like, cool.
Like, you know, if you have a fake one that looks extra whack, like, that's cool.
That's not like a lame thing.
And so I'm like, man, that would have been the time to get.
Between those and like the custom one, sorry.
There are so many customs.
Oh, really?
ones that people make oh yeah he'll make some great ones and then you know about the clothes that people
sell they create mine don't have any yet but i'm working on it i want to make my own yeah mine doesn't
either yeah you should what a fun little pro honestly what a fun project yeah like my cricket what else am i
gonna do with it i'm gonna make the most demonic clothes though just to like kind of keep the
keep the dream alive for laura yeah um oh wait no i'm gonna get priest robes oh hell yeah that's gonna be
something else you know it cancels it out yeah oh i'm having a good time with this i love it
going online without express VPN is like putting a sign in your front lawn that says hey i don't
walk my front door it's basically an open invitation to criminals to come steal all your stuff the moment
they realize you don't even have a VPN they're like great easy peasy here i come everybody needs a VPN every
time you connect to an unencrypted network that could be cafes, hotels, airports, the doctor's
office. I was at the doctor today and I realized I was on an unsecure network. Your online data is not
secure. Any hacker on the same network can gain access to and steal your personal data. That means
passwords, bank logins, credit card details. Unfortunately, it has happened to me. That is why I'm
very, very serious about using a VPN. It does not take much technical knowledge to hack someone,
just some cheap hardware. It really, this is going to sound crazy, but a 12 year old could do it. So
think about that and your data is super valuable hackers can make up to a thousand dollars per person
selling personal info on the dark web oh no express VPN you got to check it out plan start at just
349 a month that's only 12 cents a day it is super secure it would take a hacker with a super
computer no 12 year old over a billion years to get past express VPN's encryption I feel better
every time I use express VPN especially when I'm out and about I use a lot of hotel
Wi-Fi that kind of thing I would never log on without using ExpressVPN is so
important to me. Secure your online data

Anyway, so I think it's my turn.
Okay.
This is where the plot thickens, okay?
this is a five starts or redemption but it's called it's from amazon and it's called
summons demons verified purchase it's adorable and fun i got v which is my last initial so it was
meant to be i did buy one of these because they became south park's face of anti-tariffs
plus being able to summon demons with rare ones seems like fun get one end of review
hey i love that it's the rare ones i don't have any rare ones so it's like yeah so you're not
I think I'm, I think I need to get back on the app.
I didn't realize that South Park mentioned Labooboos or that was a thing.
And in fact, I don't still know if that's true.
I just read it in an Amazon review.
You know, I wouldn't be surprised.
It sounds right.
It sounds right.
Yeah.
It does sound right.
I wish I had known that now.
Yeah, that sounds interesting.
I would like to know more.
But not that I've ever watched an episode of South Park, but it's like whenever I hear things,
I'm like, oh, huh, I bet that was funny.
Yeah.
I have like a bit of a, let's see.
I'm on Facebook now.
Don't worry.
Oh, God.
This is from the Popmart Labibu only resell group.
Popmart, we probably mentioned or didn't.
I did.
I did.
I did.
Actually, Laura did.
Oh, thanks, Laura.
So, yeah, this is a post by Danielle
who wrote something about, or like basically to the people who say,
that Labibuos are evil.
So I would say it's like five star.
You know, it's a positive.
Here we go.
I don't subscribe to the theory
that Labibu's are demonic, possessed,
used for voodoo, or embedded with spyware.
I've had mine for three days now
and I've felt nothing but calm energy.
No darkness, no heaviness,
just a cute little monster sitting in peace.
I'm not going to tear it apart
searching for a microchip
because if anyone truly wanted to monitor us,
they do it through the devices
we willingly carry every day.
Oh, wait.
They already are.
Yesterday, upon talking about it with my family, my brother-in-law made a great point.
If you believe something is evil or possessed, you're actually giving that belief power and space to grow.
It's the same with anything paranormal.
If you feed it, fear, or focus too much energy on it, you open the door for it to affect you more profoundly.
My labooboo stays on my dresser at night.
I sleep fine as usual without nightmares or weird vibes.
I don't even wake up at 3 a.m. aka witching hour, unless I hear my kid on the baby monitor.
At the end of the day, they're just collectible monster dolls.
Some of us enjoy them simply for what they are.
Let people have their harmless fun.
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.
Show me your Labuboos in the comments or share your thoughts.
End of post.
Show me your Labubus.
Show me your Labubus.
And people did.
And there are some great ones in there.
And like, great conversations.
They were like, oh, my God, where do you get that Lafufuf?
It was a bunch of, like, custom ones and Lafufu's.
And everyone was like, oh, my God, that one's so cool.
I mean, it is in a group for Labubu Resale.
So I would say the audience is perfect.
for that but I this person also posted it on their like main page and shared it to that page
by the way so that it's the same person who shared it to the page but I also read the comments
underneath their like actual post that had like a variety of people commenting who didn't even know
what Lubu's are some of them but I'll get to those I'm taking a little break for you to go thanks I
just wanted to say I like how they took both sides though they were like I mean it is possible to
have a demonically possessed stuffed animal, but I bought one and I kind of tested it out.
And I think we're good to go.
And I love that.
Like, oh, well, if you think it's demonic, maybe it will be, you know, which also, like, yeah, if you're sitting there going, that thing's evil, well, you're not going to feel super good about it being in your child's bedroom or whatever you said.
And anything that happens, you're going to attribute, negative that happens, you're going to attribute to that little freak.
And it's really your demonic baby waking you up at three in the morning over the baby monitor.
Yeah, so like the baby monitor is like a portal.
It is.
Actually, I think that that is true in some ways.
Anyway, okay, my turn, or are you going to read more comments?
Okay.
Oh, no, I'll read a couple next time.
All right, so this is actually of an accessory.
This was sent in by Sam, Heim, and it's of nurse Laboooooooo accessories.
So it's scrubs, it's little like sneakers and I don't even know what that is.
band, I guess. Yeah, headband. Oh, like a, sorry, like a cap, like a surgical cap. Oh, interesting.
And a mask. And so it says Nurse L.B. Although this is a three-star review, we're going to go with
negative. LBB loves playing dress-up and loves taking care of others. However, this LBB needs to
lose some weight. The shirt is stretched out to the max, and the shoes are very hard to slip on.
And once on, it pulls the feet out when taking them off.
The mask is cute, but it's not N95 compliant.
I like all the other legitimate complaints.
Like, the shoes fall off.
I was like, oh, yeah, wait, this doesn't, oh, that's a bummer.
Yeah.
Also, not keeping safe from the pathogens.
I mean, it's really wild looking to have it in a mask.
It looks very intense.
Yeah, probably a hit on the.
nurse's break room.
Oh, I'm sure it is.
Yeah.
The nurse station.
Yeah.
Okay, here is a comment under that post about Labubo's being not demonic.
I'm having conflicting issues with this.
I've had really bad days since I got mine.
Maybe as a Christian.
I shouldn't have one.
Oh, boy.
End of the comment.
And then, but then the OOP was like, really what happened?
And they said this, kitchen sink clogged, choke.
on a laxative pill
car almost hit me
and depressed moods
end of comment
like I was laughing
and there was like depressed moods
I'm like dude no
Lauren please
this verse is also named Lauren
go see a freaking psychiatrist
please for your own sake
for your religious psychosis
no she's going to go see your pastor
who's going to tell her toys are demonic
so annoying
depression will be lifted once you get
rid of the luboos
and maybe it will
Well, again, if you put this energy into it, maybe it's not for you.
Maybe you give that.
When I was really depressed, I was buying a lot of sports cards.
I think depression and collectibles go hand in hand sometimes.
You're so right.
Sometimes I mean a lot.
You're trying to get that like hit of dopamine.
Right.
And then you get it and it's like, okay, now it's just sitting there.
And of course your dopamine is going to tank.
And it's like, well, you know, now I'm going to get hit by a car thanks to all this.
And I'm going to choke on a laxative, Phil.
Why did you have to say it was a laxative pill?
I mean, I don't care.
It's fine.
But like, oh, that just makes it so much sad.
It's very specific.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
Okay, so this was sending by Mari Shisei, and it's of the Talking Laboooooooo app.
Oh.
And interestingly, Mari sent this in the day we posted, like before we posted the theme to Patreon.
Oh.
And was like, I'm sending this again because I don't want you to miss it.
But it's very, apparently, Mari knew that this was.
going to be a thing. This is the Talking Labubu app, which is like pretty upsetting. I don't
really know how to explain it. I tried to read like the explanation, but it was confusing and
strange, and it's just basically an app that's defunct. It no longer exists. You get to be like a
virtual, you get to play like a virtual Labibu game, sort of like a Tomogachi, I guess. I'm going to send
you a picture of it. And then the other thing it does is it always like you can have it
repeat what you say in its voice.
Oh, like a parrot.
In a creepy little voice.
Oh, I don't like it.
That is creepy.
It's unsettling.
Sometimes you're like, these Laboos can't get any creepier.
And then you see what it looks like in the Labibu talking Labibu app.
And you're like, never mind.
Yeah, and I almost feel like this is not like a legit.
I mean, it might be, but it didn't.
I would hope it's not.
It didn't quite feel like an official.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't think so.
This is a Lafoofoo, Talking Lafoooooooo app.
Yeah.
So, Talking Labibu up.
So this is a one-star review.
Talking Labubu was talking to my young child and said,
I am always watching you.
Do not play this game.
Ten people found this helpful.
To which I say, doesn't it repeat what you say to it?
True.
I feel like you could easily be like, I'm always watching you.
Oh my God, Dad, look how scary.
I'm always watching you, which is scary.
But I think maybe your kid's pranking you.
Doesn't like Santa do the same thing?
Doesn't elf on the shelf do the same thing?
Oh, fair enough, Alexander will talk about creepy.
Pick and shoes.
Oh, but wait, Santa.
They're both white.
Let's talk about elf on the shelf because that one, quote unquote, normal looking.
That one is a fucking stuff animal.
There's nothing normal about that fucker.
No, and it's also like, he's bad and also he's always watching the children.
And he's also a marketed, like, toy.
It's not like he's like a classic tradition.
So, yeah, that's what I say.
if you have a problem with Elf on the Shoe, or with Labubu, then I think you should go to the trash can and put your elf on the shelf inside it.
Yes, I agree.
We're on top of it.
Or a little prank.
Yeah, then the kids will be like, ah!
He's watching what I throw away.
is it recyclable
what if they made an alph on the shelf for like recycling that's what we had growing up
up it was our stepdad yeah and he would literally watch on the trash can all day you would
literally watch all the time to make sure you that's not a joke to make sure you put things in
the right spot and turned off the lights in the room if you're leaving it for more than 10
seconds yeah um anyway i have more comments don't worry um so here i'm just going to read a few here
we go choked on a laxative phil and got hit by a card it's crazy thanks to lubu
honestly though like you look at one of these and you're like oh yeah they would probably do that
you know yeah right even the one called love i feel like would would probably do something
fucked up like that it'd be like you'd love choking on a laxie pool um here's someone i'm sending you a picture
Someone said, Myla Fufu Ain't Evil.
He just hit the ugly tree a little on the way down.
Oh, no.
Okay, let me see.
And I thought this one was pretty cute.
It had like a little cowboy hat.
Oh, my Christ.
That is terrifying, Alexander.
I mean, they're all scary.
I don't know.
This one's extra.
I got one like on your shoulder and that thing's terrifying too.
It's the eyes with that, the flat eyes that make it extra.
Yeah, that one is kind of weird.
Someone said, I take my.
find a church every week,
LOL,
no issue so far.
Oh my God,
except for the fires
that have begun in my pew.
All the lamps kept falling down.
The lights fell down.
Finally,
I've been waiting for decades.
I've been waiting too.
Someone posted their collection
and it was quite extensive.
Honestly,
probably similar number to yours.
And they said,
I would be completely possessed by now.
Ha ha.
I mean,
it would explain a lot about me,
but.
Yeah.
And then here's one more comment.
Genuinely hate these demon things.
I do believe they are.
However, people can do and buy whatever they want with their money.
It's their money.
People getting super pressed about it is wild.
I just pray about it and move on.
Heart emoji.
Yeah, I move on.
And then I comment aggressively on posts about it because I've totally moved on.
Yeah, they're little demons in people's homes, but I just move on and pray about it.
And it's my job as a Catholic despair.
souls by praying on their behalf.
But, you know, other than that, I don't give it much thought.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Look, I accept people praying for me.
That's fine.
But not about my laboo-booboo.
What do you think the prayer sounds like?
Leave my lib-bubu out of you.
Lord Jesus, forgive them for they know not what they do when they buy these labuboos.
That's what it is.
It's like these sinners are bringing evil into their homes.
I would take that prayer.
I don't know if I would.
I would take most prayers.
I don't think I have much of, I don't think I have a choice when it comes to it.
I was going to say, yeah, I think like they're getting, we're getting smacked by them
anyway, um, Catholic's in our life, so.
That's so true.
We're probably like under a constant, like spiritual attack.
I'm yet to see the error in my ways.
Correct.
It's the darndest thing every day without fail.
I have to try and figure out what's for dinner.
It's really frustrating. I don't know if this ever happens to you, but fortunately, Home Chef can take the stress off our plates.

my last reviews, Andy. It's out of the
Talking Labibu app.
Nice. Yep. Also for Mari.
It's a four-star review. So this one's
a redemption. And it's
by Madeline.
This game is actually pretty fun. I love
having my Labubu pet. Repeat me.
I find that how the
Labubu itself looks is a bit strange.
You can barely tell it has a nose because
it doesn't have an outline for the nose,
which makes it look so strange.
So if you could add an outline so you can tell it has
a nose better, that would be nice.
Other than that, the app is fun.
Even if you decide to only say things and have the Labubu say them back, end of review.
Sounds like the world's most boring.
That sounds terrible.
No offense, but I feel like that's, I mean, I don't know.
Hey, plus one friend.
You get a friend that talks to you.
It only says what you say.
Yeah, which is like, isn't that like the most annoying thing that a person can do is just copy you over and over?
It's definitely up there.
Yeah.
But I do see the appeal to an extent.
Especially when it comes to pranking your dad by saying, I'm watching you.
See, that stuff is all so good.
Okay, here's my last.
No, it's not even my last.
This is my second to last thing, I think, about Labubu's.
I found a Reddit thread saying,
why do so many people say that Labubu is demonic?
And here's what someone said, commented.
I have a story to tell.
It's real.
I ordered a Labibu on Amazon.
This reminds me of, I'm not saying this to be dramatic.
I have a story, and it's real.
Is it?
Why are you even clarifying?
And it's real is in parentheses to be like.
It's real, okay?
Before you even think it's like.
My last story was not real.
This one though, and this one's real.
But this one, you better listen.
The Labou was cursed because I woke up extra early to get it.
It was 4 a.m. and I saw a ghost.
Around a few hours later, the Labubu came on my front doorstep.
I opened the box and it was a Lafoufou.
Parantheses, fake Labubu.
I did not really like it, but it's okay.
Ever since it happened, I have always felt like someone was always watching me.
I got a lot of bad luck.
And at night, I put it on my desk, and the next morning it was on the other side of the desk.
Stay safe.
End of review.
That's the ghost in your house.
Are you not understanding what's going on?
There's a ghost in your home.
It has nothing to do with the Lafoufoo.
Lafoo, come on.
Also, yeah, I ordered a demonic being on Amazon.
Like, it just doesn't make any sense.
It's really a wild thing.
And, like, the fact that somebody earlier was excited about it and said,
oh, you can summon demons with the rare ones.
I'm like, that makes more sense that, like, the rare ones have powers, you know?
Because you've got to work a little harder to get those into your home.
A loo-foo, like, please.
I think that's kind of thing where it would, like, like, like, Neville from Harry Potter,
like, accidentally do spells on, you know, on the wrong thing.
I don't think that this is like a, of all the fallen angels,
I think this might be, like, a lower tier one, you know.
That makes sense, yeah.
But it's, because you can pick these up at a, we saw them crazy ones at that gas station in Texas.
It was actually called the fried pie shop.
Oh, sorry, the fried pie shop in Texas.
What was that place?
They had these, I took so many pictures of that place because I was like, this feels like a fever dream and I'm going to want to remember it.
They had a whole rotating, like display.
The original fried pie shop.
Yeah, the original fried pie.
These like Lefoufoo's, like literally hung with the rosaries.
Yeah.
All these, like, blingy rosaries and then, like, these lafou, it was honestly quite a sight.
It really was.
It was, it was, I was, I honestly was tempted by some of them.
Yeah.
And I, like, at that point, I only, I mean, still only have my one Laboubu, a real one.
But then I saw these Lafoufos and I thought, okay.
Some of them had, like, Donkey Kong, like, outfits on.
And I'm like, what's going on?
I think they're just confusing all their IP.
Yeah, yeah, there was a lot.
And then, yeah, it was weird.
That's true.
I bet there's one for me, though.
Like, if there was like a Sonic the Hedgehog, Labub, I think I'd love that.
Lafou, I'd love that.
Yeah, that feels right for you.
Anyway, here's another comment about, on Reddit.
They are demonic.
I was sleeping, and at 3 a.m.
I heard three loud knocks on my window, and I've never, ever experienced this before.
Then my cousin brought up my Labubu, and I know for a fact it attracted whatever.
knocked loud on my window. They say it represents the demon Gendaruo, which is a prankster,
and that just makes so much sense why it knocked on my window. I don't know if I'm saying that,
right, but apparently, the gender, gender, yeah, exactly, but it might have been the Genderu,
gendorua, or genderua. It's a mythical creature from Java, Indonesia, and it's a reddish or
black-skinned, hairy humanoid with large and muscular body. And it's said to be supernational,
control in nature with the ability to disappear and appear at will or transform into a human.
So this cryptid apparently.
So is it a demon or is it a cryptid?
Like that's what I want.
It's a mythical creature.
So they're like making shit up because it's not a demon.
That's not how demons work.
If you're like it's a demon who loves to prank people, that's not a demon.
Do you know what a demon is?
It literally wants your fucking soul.
Okay.
Demons are fucking aggressive.
Demons are they, well, they're not necessarily aggressive, Alexander.
Sometimes they come with a wink and shiny packages.
And slither in the back door.
Okay, that they do.
They do slither in the back door, but not the way you're thinking.
No.
And I, well, demon, listen, I don't know.
I've heard some stories.
But, yeah, this thing is scary.
That's a succubis, Christina.
Yeah.
The succubies slither into my back door.
Or an incubus.
Anyway.
That's a band, Christina.
They sang the end of the world.
Once again.
That's what you think.
it's not actually what i think don't worry people
um why did you say that was that the song we used to say was by yeah yeah yeah oh okay
that's the end of the world as we know it i feel fine yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and you know
it's not by then it's incubus okay uh this is by succubis okay here's i think this is my last
redid column but i still have a couple other reviews that will lead into my amazing challenge
I think it was amazing.
Yeah, I'm sure.
So this is under the why do people say
Laboos are demonic. Someone said this.
That would explain why mine are crying blood
and sacrificing my kids of Barbies
on makeshift popsicle stick altars.
End of comment.
Oh, I mean, yes.
And your kid maybe needs to see the guidance counselor.
It's not even the kid.
It's the parent who's just doing all this stuff.
Or you have a really fun imagination.
And maybe you're going to get called into the principal's office.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, no, no.
That sounds like fun.
I feel like I would, that's actually fun.
Once I get a priest outfit for mine, I'll set up like some fun sacrificial.
Like I'll set up some fun.
Actually, what I was thinking is maybe I can do like a gay wedding, you know, with my looboos.
Oh, that is demonic.
Right?
That's what I'm thinking.
I'm talking about slother in the back door.
Alexander.
Okay.
So, anyway.
We'll figure it out.
I've got big plans, I tell you.
Yeah, I can tell.
So part of buying these often is using the app, the Popmart app, is that correct?
That's right.
Well, I have a couple of reviews of the app because I thought that would be a good thing.
I didn't even think of that.
I was wondering, I was like, hmm, she might think of this because she probably has it.
I was literally looking at the app as I did the research just for fun, but I didn't even think to do the reviews of it.
Here's a one-star review, titled Worst App.
It literally crashed after two minutes.
If I were the CEO, I'd fire my entire IT and marketing team.
Imagine how much money they're losing.
End of review.
They're fine, I promise.
The Bobmart marketing team is doing just fine.
Why do you think that they crash, the app keeps crashing?
It's because there's so many freaking teenie boppers and me on it.
It's so true.
And, like, they paid us so handsomely to do this an episode.
That's right.
The marketing team is great.
They're fine.
We love them so much.
They do have, like, these weird devil horns on under their hats.
But we said, that's fine.
We said, we'll make a deal with you.
We did make a deal with them.
Was that some, like, random crossroads in, like, Mississippi.
That's right.
I was wondering why we, I was going to ask why we went all the way down there.
I know.
We didn't even have a show down there.
No, we just kind of showed up.
It was crazy.
Yeah.
And ever since I keep choking on my laxative pills, do you think that's a coincidence or not?
Oh, man, your body's just like, no, no, no, we don't want laxatives.
You want to keep the demonic stuff inside.
Here's a one-star review of the app.
This is my last one, I think, before the challenge.
I placed a few Laboo-Boo orders around the same time, and after 10 days, I received one package
containing a nine-piece pack of caffeinated chewing gum, ignored by customer service, end of review.
Oh, talk about wild, caffeinated chewing gum.
That is, that is.
Did it look anything like a liburo?
Or was it like, did it?
It was make your own with the chewed gum.
Oh, it didn't even have teeth or anything.
Wow.
I hope not.
You have to supply your own.
Caffeinated chewing gum is a really wild thing.
Well, you, honestly, though, I don't know if it's as wild.
I'm always like trying to compare them.
I mean, I could see like a lot of professions and like, like, I could see like long haul truckers
using things like that to like not drink.
Yeah, I'm just talking about like the.
the switcheroo because do you remember what i received as a switcheroo when someone a listener sent me
a baby gift when i was pregnant with leona and um i opened it and instead of the item that was sent
which had it had like the correct barcode and a QR code um and they sent like this cute
book uh i was sent an engine a boat propeller uh a boat propeller but it was just one blade
of a boat propeller and um it was a
this humongous metal thing, and Tim was like, nice boat propeller. And I was like,
Tim was like, they probably ordered it. I mean, they probably got in touch with that listener and
was like, no, no, no. I really need a boat propeller. Tim would never buy boat parts on Amazon. He
would go to pick. That's true. A pick and pull. Pick and mix. Yeah. And it's not picking
mix, but he would get a boat propeller there. But yeah, I just was like, very, very, that one was
always like the string just mix up.
So I always, I always wonder when I hear these mixups, like, who got the other thing, you know?
And especially that one, because I feel like a lot of them might have to do with weight.
Like size and the different package.
Yeah, it's just like assuming, like, there's something inevitably goes wrong when you.
The box was gigantic.
I mean, of course.
That's crazy.
It was a gigantic box.
And I was like, how is this supposed to be for a little book?
Anyway, it was just like quite a, quite a strange event.
My Labubo's not very happy with me.
Hold on.
My Labubu keeps falling behind me.
I'm going to clip it to my microphone a moment.
Well, that's cool.
Thanks.
So, it was to find reviews made up of emojis. I really want to leave. I, it was, so it was tough.
This was tough. Because originally I wanted to find reviews where people like described an experience.
Right.
Through emojis.
And it's hard, how do you search for that?
Yeah, exactly.
It was very difficult.
So I looked at a bunch of things.
You'd have to tell your own story with emojis and then search for that story on Google.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Yeah.
So then I realized that apps are probably pretty good to place to start because I was already on the Pop Mart app.
So I was like looking for apps that might have a bunch of emoji reviews or emojis in the reviews.
And so I looked at Roblox, of course, which I feel like people have said it before.
I absolutely think we need to do it.
episode on Roblox reviews because they are fucking crazy, dude.
Yeah, I'm getting, I've been getting more kind of insight into that world.
Not really, but like, I've been like peripherally seeing some of the crazy shit that people
like that kids talk about Roblox and I don't even know what's happening, but I'm curious.
I'm curious.
It is a, it is a cesspool in so many ways, but also like, I get it.
Like, if I were a kid, I'd love it.
I mean, I played dressed to impress on there and had a blast.
And that's just one of the many games you can play.
And, like, people make, like, legit money off of it.
It's a fucking crazy world.
So can you save, like, kind of all the, like, good copy points for later?
Yeah, my bad, my bad, my bad.
Oh, by the way, did we hit all the copy points for Labu?
We did demonic.
They told us to convince everyone they're not demonic, even though they are.
I mean, I mean.
Right.
While subtly also hinting that they are.
That was part of it.
Yeah, yeah.
We got to get both sides, exactly.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
So this one starts off with text but ends in emojis.
So here we go.
This is of Roblox, one star by Cristiano Ronaldo.
He probably spelled wrong.
Actually, yeah, it is.
Yeah, I knew it.
Here we go.
Brother, what?
These three games called 99 Nights in the Forest,
grow a garden, and steal a brain rock.
are so skibbitty.
Broken heart emoji, prayer hand emojis, shout emoji,
fire emoji, heart on fire emoji, heart with bandage emoji,
crying emoji, peace sign emoji.
I don't even know what this one is.
It's like, oh, like pleading.
Oh, whale.
Whale.
It looks like a little whale emoji.
And then the like teary eye smile.
Yeah, teary, yeah, tear smile.
Yeah.
End of view.
I feel like that's actually really powerful.
And I feel like that tells a story of, like, humanity's redemption once this cataclysmic event will happen, that will get us all on the same page finally.
You know, I feel like with this big comet coming to shake up the game, with Lubu's, you know, becoming kind of a legion of unto their own, I think this is telling quite a powerful tale of redemption and sacrifice and Roblox.
Whoa
Sounds like an upcoming Netflix documentary
Yep
Yep
I don't know if I mean that as a compliment
It's probably not
I don't take it as one so
Here's a five-star review
Of Clash of Clans
Okay
Did you play that?
That's only emojis
No I
Wait
No
There was like a similar game
I played for a while
That was like
A base builder
What's it called?
but I can't remember.
If I saw it, I'd know.
But I didn't play Clash of Clans.
It was too mainstream.
Oh, yeah, sure.
No, I've actually heard good things about it.
So I don't know.
I just, I know that I can get a little too deep into mobile games.
So I have been avoiding them successfully.
So I just play chess instead.
Yeah, that's talk about it.
When you need like that thrill.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So here's a five-star review of Clash of Clans.
Title is, it's just a good game.
Okay.
I need to know what you think this emoji is.
This one?
Yeah.
It's like the, you'd say like Chef's Kiss and you put your Italian hand up.
It's like an Italian hand.
I just call it like a Chef's Kiss emoji.
Pinched fingers emoji.
I did, I typed an Italian hand emoji that said,
Pinch finger emoji.
Italian hand.
Yeah, and it's like, Mamma Mia.
Yeah, you know, you'd like put your fingers up and be like, ah, a pizzeria.
I know a lot of Italian.
Anyway, so I'm going to call it.
You can even speak Italian sign language from what I can tell.
Yeah, I can.
This review is Italian hand emoji, Italian hand emoji, Italian hand emoji, Italian hand emoji, Italian hand emoji.
Okay emoji, okay emoji, okay emoji, okay emoji, melting emoji, melting emoji, melting emoji.
End of review.
Wow.
again it feels like you're telling some
I'm telling me something
some facets of how this game is experienced
like it's like oh this is fun and then it's like
what have I done you know
like it almost feels like at the end it's always like
oh no things have gotten I've gone too far
I've gone too far that is how
that's that's my experience with mobile game so I
feels like a devolving you know the emojis devolve
and it's like a five star it's a great game
but like that's what gets you
it's that good that you like
it drags you down into a
the bane of your existence sort of, but it's like a love-hate relationship.
But you can't escape, exactly.
Right.
So after looking at more app reviews, I couldn't find many.
I was struggling a lot, and there were a lot of shitty apps out there.
But I did find one more reviewer on Letterbox, who happens to be called The Emoji Reviewer.
Well, they don't have that many, like, followers yet.
Yet.
Until now.
They do review movies with emojis.
They include words sometimes, but for the most part, they just use emojis.
So here's a start off with something little, like an easy one.
This is a movie Big Fish from 2003.
And to be clear, as far as I can tell, there are no spoilers in any of these reviews,
unless you can somehow figure out a riddle of sorts.
I'll spoil Big Fish for you right now, people.
This one is hilarious to me because, okay, I don't know, here we go.
emoji shrug emoji me emoji and a review how dare you first of all you can even you couldn't even use a fish emoji come on no that's in the title that's lazy okay okay okay yeah yeah wow I mean I guess I guess I could see that I guess I'll allow it this person I have no idea what their taste is I didn't even know you could write three three characters in a review on letterbox I because they
Any ones that you've ever shown me before have been about 16 thesis pages long.
Yeah, true.
No, a lot of them are like really quick.
Like I just, I was looking at ones of 2001 of Space Odyssey and someone just said like,
love the monkeys or something like stupid with like 18,000.
Heart emoji, monkey emoji.
Oh, boy.
Okay.
This is a review of challengers.
Did you see challengers?
You know, I didn't.
I enjoyed it
This has words as well
So here we go
That's from the movie Challenders
From 2004
Thinking emoji

Just like a little bit on the side.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thumbs down emoji.
Laptop emoji.
Green Square emoji.
Oh.
Softball emoji.
Looks kind of like a tennis ball, but it's a softball.
Okay.
Then says, is tennis only interesting if there's hot people love drama going on too?
Yes.
I think they meant hot people.
people love drama as like one thing i don't know yeah yeah i get it okay i didn't at first heart
that's an entire genre on netflix oh yeah hot people love drama yeah actually wait
hot people love drama yeah wait hot i can't it's not even on nothing it's a whole genre of

Kissy emoji, kissy emoji,
a musical note emoji,
microphone emoji.
Person, just a person.
I don't even know.
Man standing?
No, no, no.
Just the face.
But it's like the gender neutral, just face.
Minus cringe emoji?
This is insane.
I don't know what I'm going to.
There's a dash.
I don't know.
Maybe it's like those two were connecting.
making out i don't know though oh i thought that was like they were saying incubus or something
i thought they were spelling the band name no it's it's uh who trent resner it's what's their names
um death cap for cutie yeah that's right i forgot that's probably what the quench of it's all
death cap for cut music is great but yeah probably not the best makeout music not that i would
know um that it begged to differ actually wait never
mine. Here's a review of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Half their songs are literally about
making out. Death Count for Cootty. Definitely who I was talking about. Yeah, I meant the
soundtrack for the movie, but you haven't listened to that album of theirs. What? Oh,
I haven't listened to that album. It's Trent Reznor from Death Count for Cutie.
Who the hell is Trent Nails. Nine Inch Nails, Christina.
Wait, really? Yes. Trent Rezner has done music for so many movies now.
Alexander, I haven't been to a movie since the year of our Lord 2019, okay.

That feels like it would all be death cab for cutie or like the, what's the band?
Hold on.
The one that's annoying and it was always in Gilmore Girls.
And it was like, I wanted to listen to.

That's why I'm getting it
It's all coming together
I have the Garden State soundtrack
I didn't even like that movie
Very different than Trent Resner's
soundtrack.
It doesn't sound that different.
Watch a movie for once in your life, please.
No, I'm going to watch the French again.
I would love to have a peer on here who I could actually speak to about things.
And you should probably look into that on your own time.
Speaking of which, I'd like to talk to you about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which...
Good make-out soundtrack.
I don't even remember if there's any music.
It was, honestly, I get why...
It was fucking terrifying.
What are you talking about?
Are you saying you just watched the film?
Why are you saying it?
Yes.
Okay.
So this is like.
Because I have a review of it.
Oh, okay.
And you watched it recently.
Yeah.
For the first time?
For the first time ever.
Okay.
And dude, it blew me away.
Really?
It's from 1974.
It really did.
I was shocked at like how much I enjoyed it.
Like I knew, like a lot of people said it's like really scary.
Like it's one that's like actually really fucked up.
And it was.
And I like really, especially for it being from 1970.
It just felt.
I felt so, like, real.
It was terrifying.
I don't think I want to watch this.
No, it was, it felt very real.
I don't blame you if you don't watch it.
But I was just, like, impressed, and I get why it has, like, such a cult following and cult status.
And why it's influenced so much of horror today, because it's so fucking good and horrible.
Wrong podcast.
Anyway, anyway, it was something else.
Here we go.

I would advise that you take an edible beforehand. That sounds fun. No, I remember being like a
really funny, I think that one I would watch again. White chicks? I don't know. I just feel like it was
never really my jam. Oh, because it was about you. You felt you felt targeted. Yes. They're like,

Which one?
All 30 of them?
The Legion, your personal legion of Labuboos is going to be marching to the other side.

It's only once a year, so I would calm down.
And it hasn't happened yet this year.
Oh, we're coming close to the end of the year, so.
Yeah, it could be any day now.
Stay tuned, folks.

You're okay in the afterlife.

Yes, with the crucifix.
Oh, God, the dream.
So anyway, thank you for listening to our podcast.
Um, we wanted to do Lububu's this week and, uh, sorry about that, but next week we're
going to be doing something totally different.
If you're on Patreon, you already know what it is.
I think that's all I.
I have to say, I feel I bear, I bared my soul today a little bit, maybe perhaps too much.
I don't know. I think I'm going to get some commentary about my collection, but...
It was a very vulnerable episode for you.
Thank you. Thank you.
