The most cursed thing related to hello kitty is learning that she's not suppose to be a cat but is actually supposed to be a 3 year old human girl wearing a cat costume
“All the while Hello Kitty remained as the most popular [Sanrio character]” fun fact actually, according to official Sanrio Japanese polls, Cinnamoroll made #1 the last 4 years in a row (and a few before that), with HK not even reaching top 3 usually. Seems like she hasn’t really been super popular since pre-2010s but Sanrio seems to use her as the most common mascot.
The Hello Kitty plush with the very long limbs are from Stretchkins! It was a plush line that allowed you to strap the feet and hands of the plush to your own. Their limbs were elastic and allowed you to do jumping jacks and dances. From what I remember, each of them came with a DVD of different exercise routines. I still own my elephant Stretchkin from when I was a kid :)
Oh wow I put a comment in the regular section about an add I saw way back about dancing with "stretchy life size characters! " so this is rlly helpful thank you!!
In Mexico there have been a series of Hello Kitty colaborations with a specific period pads brand over the years (probably more than a decade by now); it's kinda cute how they decorate the pads envelopes with all sorts of hello kitty themed patterns. I believe there were also some Aggretsuko, Gudetama and other Sanrio characters editions. Sometimes the pads come in bigger boxes that would include a little prize according to the current pad theme. Which vary to litterally anything, from coffe mugs to boxes to store the pads and the list goes on. I think it's pretty fun!
The experience of watching this video is like listening to your neurodivergent friend info dump about their special interest. They're so excited to tell you about all the Hello Kitty merch they researched, and you were actually supposed to leave ten minutes ago, but they're so happy you don't have the heart to stop them
speaking of infodumping i cant wait untill this person just releases straightup a 2 hour long infodump about the most random cool shit its inevitable its gotta be
@pearlscent Neurodivergent doesn't just mean autistic. It's an umbrella term that also includes ADHD, OCD and a bunch of other conditions that affect how you think or function. Infodumping isn't exclusive to neurodivergent people either. That being said, if you feel like it resonates with you and you want to look into it more, go for it! I think a lot of people exist under the neurodivergent umbrella without realizing it, and even if you aren't struggling, it can be comforting to have a name to put to certain feelings.
Edit: I found it! It's called Hello Kitty Hello Everything and was a celebration of Hello Kitty's first 25 years. It came out in 2001, I was born in late 1998 so the time lines up that I would only be looking at pictures. The cover is a collage of different products from a bumper car to a guitar to a keychain. It features even crazier stuff like a car and there's a page for the video game stuff like the Dreamcast and little Game and Watch-like games. Also a phone where her head is connected to the receiver so you decapitate her to make calls. I don't know if I still have the book myself (probably not) but there's even a page through of it on RUclips. I'm looking at it now and being hit with nostalgia for stuff I can't believe I forgot like the Hello Kitty dollhouse set where the characters look like erasers and the mermaid Kitty. I wanted both of those so bad as a child. Looking through now I don't see the ring I thought I remembered, but it's so nice to have a name to the book now. I used to have a book that was pretty much an encyclopedia for all sorts of Hello Kitty products, I looked through it all the time since I was a huge Hello Kitty fan but this was before I could even read so I don't remember it super well. It actually helped teach me how to recognize dates and years. I remember wanting the Hello Kitty toaster and for my parents to buy me what looking back now must have been a solid gold ring with a Hello Kitty-shaped diamond in it. I doubt we still have it, but I might look around online to just try to figure out what the hell that book was even supposed to be for.
@@ScuttleBugReal That's a good idea, but I remember it being pretty big and hardcover. I think my grandparents might have gotten it for me when I was a toddler. A lot of the stuff I imagine wasn't even commercially available, like the ring which if it was as fancy as I think it was would probably be one of only a few. If I had to guess it was a celebration of Hello Kitty through the years, I've been looking around online for it but haven't found anything yet but I intend to keep looking because now it's bugging me.
i've been using one of the hello kitty toasters for 7 years and it's still in super good shape. it doesn't really toast her face onto it anymore though, but it still toasts bread very nicely
There's a few different Hello Kitty sewing machines out there. Notably, there's a blue-green one by Janome called "Sewing Pretty with Hello Kitty" that's very popular right now among the lolita fashion community (for those unfamiliar, an alternative fashion from Japan that takes inspiration from things like rococo, vintage dolls, princesses, etc). I've been told it's actually a pretty good machine, albeit a bit small. Personally, I believe that sewing pretty with Hello Kitty is not a product but rather a state of being, so I just put a bunch of the Hello Kitty x Pusheen stickers on my otherwise normal sewing machine (whose name is Kevin).
Honestly in the food section you should have had the Hello Kitty wine. There are several different versions of it, sparkling rose and Cabernet included. All the products you showed seemed for children but that one shows that there are very much adult fans too.
There are tons of adult fans. 😊 When the Hello Kitty cafe truck comes to Atlanta, the line for it starts a couple hours early and the line wraps around the block. That line is full of all ages but mainly college age and up and they’re buying for themselves. I’m mad because they released a new glass Hello Kitty icons mug after leaving my city and I wasn’t able to buy it this year. 😢
I will always have a bit of a soft spot for Sanrio characters. The cursed products I feel add to their charm and make me love them all that much more! Thanks for covering some of them!! I now have some random items to send my friends, lol.
Duck is the common name for numerous species of waterfowl in the family Anatidae. Ducks are generally smaller and shorter-necked than swans and geese, which are members of the same family. Divided among several subfamilies, they are a form taxon; they do not represent a monophyletic group (the group of all descendants of a single common ancestral species), since swans and geese are not considered ducks. Ducks are mostly aquatic birds, and may be found in both fresh water and sea water.
I went to a hello kitty exhibit quite a few years ago with my mom (She’s a a HUGE fan) and the only thing I remember from that was a Hello Kitty Headstone…. We had an almost full Hello Kitty kitchen at one point. Talking microwave, toaster, waffle maker, coffee machine, milkshake maker, cookie jars, plates, cups. My mom also has a Hello Kitty Christmas tree she’s been setting up for the last few years. Oh I also had the tv with flowers one it! I honestly really miss it, we also had this shower curtain for YEARS and she took it down when my brother got older :/
i had the uncomfortable hello kitty mouse (9:29) when i was little and it was definitely not swag to use . made me popular in grade school though so thats a plus
Fun fact: Hello kitty is a teenage girl who lives in the London suburbs with a twin sister, pet cat, and boyfriend, her legal name is also Kitty White.
I'm 100% convinced that Long Hello Kitty is some kind of SCP. Imagine waking up one night to strange, raspy breathing and seeing that looming over the foot of your bed.
This has been happening to many people over the past few months. The only reason it keeps happening is that everyone passes it off as just sleep paralysis. I wake up in the middle of the night for seemingly no reason. I've been waiting for this. No one has been able to properly see the creature, as it has always disappeared by the time they turn any lights on. I see it. The long arms of the tall monster at the end of my bed. I reach for the flashlight I left on my bedside table, and point it at the raspy monster. As I look up the body I see the long legs run up and up, as the arms follow with it. The torso is quite small for the creature, and it wears strange red trousers. As I go up to the face and head, it blocks the light from it's eyes, screeching loudly. As it's eyes adjust to the lights, it uncovers it's face, letting it's lanky limbs down. I see it's true identity. The red Bow on its head, the cat ears atop, and... It's just Hello Kitty?
As a big fan of hello kitty, I want to add a couple of things like the hello kitty sanitary napkins that come with a gift bottle. I have a plushie that can talk and... breathe if you press it. Also, there is a store in my town FULL of Hello Kitty calculators, I love this video, sorry for the bad English, I use the translator.
I was born in 1974, so Hello Kitty has been a part of my whole life; and I have always loved it so much. Admittedly ChocoCat is my actual favorite Sanrio character, but Hello Kitty is my second favorite. I have a Nintendo DS that is fully tripped out with the Hello Kitty gear. One of the physician's assistants at my pain management doctor has an office that is entirely done in pink Hello Kitty gear and decorations. I love that you can be an adult, professional; and it is totally okay to have Hello Kitty and other Sanrio characters on your work attire and office. I didn't know about the Hello Kitty/ One Piece crossover, and I'm going to have to check into that. Hello Kitty and Chopper and easily a perfect crossover combination, and I am going to have to find something with them on it. I can always find a use for more pouches, and Sanrio is my favorite theme for them. ^_^ I always thought that the weirdest and most problematic Hello Kitty product was the fact that they released an officially licensed Hello Kitty vibrator. Sanrio has said that it was intended for things like massaging your sore neck, but it is clearly shaped for other purposes (but technically you could use it on your neck, so they aren't lying....).
@the I believe that they called it a "shoulder massager", but it's shaped exactly like what you'd think it would be shaped like, with poor Hello Kitty as the handle. Poor Hello Kitty.
Hi polygen! The long hello kitty (as weird as it is), is actually from the toy brand Stretchkins, these wacky plushies were originally given extra long limbs with built in elastic to give them that extra stretch, hope this helps!
this reminded me of a add I saw way back and it was "life size characters " that you could dance with. If you look at the pushes feet in a couple pictures it looks like she has straps on her feet so it might be one of those life size dance characters 🤷🏻♀️ is it maybe the same product?
@@imaginefun13 yeah, the point of it is you're supposed to wear it and then do dances and jumping jacks n stuff like that with it, it's weird but i think it's cute they made something to get kids to like exercising
10:26 I actually have the first Hello Kitty toaster listed, It's old and I think it was from 2013-2016 when we got it. We still use it because I like the texture combination of raw and crunchy.
I think the KFC-Hello Kitty Christmas thing comes from the fact KFC has been a big thing around Christmas time in Japan for years, so adding a beloved cartoon cat into the mix would probably be pretty successful
Yeah! From what I understand it's more of a romantic holiday too, vs a kid focused one so if your partner was super into sanrio this is like one of the cutest ways of showing them you care :D
I had these horrifying soap bottles back in the day. Hello Kittys body was the actual bottle and her head was just a cheap plastic 'shell' on top of it. So in order to get any product, you always had to decapitate her!
(7:24) my friend, she has this and said, that when halloween comes(in 2023,last year) I will get a black suit on, but I can still see through it, put the straps on (the arms and legs strap) and walk around with a Halloween basket for halloween
Its crazy how this simple little character goes from on a coin purse to literally on every product you can think of, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a hello kitty dildo existed.
A former roommate of mine was super SUPER into Hello Kitty/Sanrio and actually got her hands on some of the kitchen appliances because she worked at Target and there was a brief period of time where they were being sold there. I know for sure she had the white and pink rounded toaster, the *microwave* (wtf why), the waffle maker and I think there was a little water dispenser, too. It was wild to see them in action. They worked well enough but no better than something that was probably half the price. Also the microwave was *tiny*. Most standard plates couldn't fit inside it.
7:24 it’s a from a group of different plushies, that you could put your hand and feets through straps on the characters hands and feet, except because hello kitty’s limbs are usually visualized at stubby, they had to make the arms and legs long for it too work
my dad actually bought me the hello kitty bow mouse a few years back, originally i had no idea how i was realistically supposed to use it but weirdly enough, it gets pretty comfortable after using it for awhile
I'm not sure if anyone else has said this, but the long Hello Kitty at 7:13 is a Hello Kitty Stretchkin! Stretchkins were made to encourage kids to exercise/make it fun by putting your hands and feet through the elastic bands. I actually have a unicorn one :)
7:12 i have a vauge memory of owning one of these, i think you were supposed to use the elastic to attach it to your hands and feet and puppeteer(?) it
Now it's time to info dump some random hello kitty items I think are cool. There was a child's play or "bride of Chucky" and "seed of Chucky" Collab. There some keychains, pins and most importantly two packs of plushies, there's a hello kitty themed Chucky, glen/Glenda, and Tiffany. The three pack is surprisingly rare while the two pack is more common. Some parts may be incorrect lol. Thanks for reading also, I love your nails polygon!
I don’t know how hard this would be but would you consider doing this with Pokémon or Mario? There’s a lot of really rare strange Pokémon merch and Mario products are just insanely cursed.
Fun fact: Roger Hargreaves made the Mr. men series in August 1971. But in 2011, Sanrio agreed with Roger Hargreaves to aquire the rights of the series of Mr. men and Little miss. But Mr. men and little miss were owned by Chorion after the company was forced into administration, so they used the THOIP company to take over.
8:21, imagine if the situation was flipped lol. You just wanna buy a TV and next thing you know a package arrives at your door. Opening it, you now suddenly have this bright pink hello kitty Xbox in your possession.
7:30 OMG I HAVE ONE FROM WHEN I WAS YOUNGER theyre these toys where you slide your hand into the like elastic band and ur feet, it is like a buddy that yiu walk with
I own one of the long hello kitty plushes, she was marketed as a work out buddy where a child puts their hands and feet into the hand and feet straps on her and they do stretches together. doesnt make it less weird
The Hello Kitty garden spinner is definitely something you’d see in an Urbex video like 50-100+ years in the future. It just looks so dystopian and disjointed all on its own. I love those things and it weirds me out
As both a fan of Hello Kitty and Pringles, those plushies are my dream 💪 In general most of Hello Kitty (or Sanrio on general) products are amazing... I love them ✨
I recently bought a small, hello kitty shaped cast iron frying pan. It's suprisingly high quality and really cute! It's even got indents so if you made pancakes in it you could have one side match the shape of her face! I always loved Hello Kitty as a little kid so seeing these kinds of things make me pretty happy.
Just wanted to mention that the “long hello kitty” is indeed similar to stretchkins, a toy which is used for a child to put their feet and hands in the elastic holes to dance with it. There are ads on RUclips if you search it up.
I just found your channel today because of this video being suggested to me, and it scratched my brain in a good way and i’ve watched a few more of your videos and they also scratched my brain so i’ve decided this is one of my favorite channels now
I actually own a reversible hello kitty food plush, and one side is hello kitty in an apple costume, and the other is just a straight up hello kitty apple.
9:18 I vividly remember having one of the water mouses. :0 I used to be obsessed with Hello Kitty and pretty much had everything themed around it in my grandma’s house. I had Hello Kitty rugs, bedsheets, walls, toys, clothes, shoes, ect. I even had a Hello Kitty laptop. I had maybe a 100+ Hello Kitty plushy collection

As a big fan of hello kitty, I want to add a couple of things like the hello kitty sanitary napkins that come with a gift bottle.
I have a plushie that can talk and... breathe if you press it. Also, there is a store in my town FULL of Hello Kitty calculators, I love this video, sorry for the bad English, I use the translator.
HOLD UP IT CAN BREATHE?
It can WHAT if you press it😦?
5:30 I WANT THAT- Cinnamoroll is my fav and I love the green Pringle's so that's perfect for me lol

I was born in 1974, so Hello Kitty has been a part of my whole life; and I have always loved it so much. Admittedly ChocoCat is my actual favorite Sanrio character, but Hello Kitty is my second favorite. I have a Nintendo DS that is fully tripped out with the Hello Kitty gear. One of the physician's assistants at my pain management doctor has an office that is entirely done in pink Hello Kitty gear and decorations. I love that you can be an adult, professional; and it is totally okay to have Hello Kitty and other Sanrio characters on your work attire and office. I didn't know about the Hello Kitty/ One Piece crossover, and I'm going to have to check into that. Hello Kitty and Chopper and easily a perfect crossover combination, and I am going to have to find something with them on it. I can always find a use for more pouches, and Sanrio is my favorite theme for them. ^_^
I always thought that the weirdest and most problematic Hello Kitty product was the fact that they released an officially licensed Hello Kitty vibrator. Sanrio has said that it was intended for things like massaging your sore neck, but it is clearly shaped for other purposes (but technically you could use it on your neck, so they aren't lying....).
THE LAST PART😀
old man with grammar
@@weapponofchoice Hey, I'm an old woman with grammar. ;D
@the I believe that they called it a "shoulder massager", but it's shaped exactly like what you'd think it would be shaped like, with poor Hello Kitty as the handle. Poor Hello Kitty.
@@weapponofchoice rude.
Hi polygen! The long hello kitty (as weird as it is), is actually from the toy brand Stretchkins, these wacky plushies were originally given extra long limbs with built in elastic to give them that extra stretch, hope this helps!
i feel like i've seen your profile picture on at least 3 other accounts
this reminded me of a add I saw way back and it was "life size characters " that you could dance with. If you look at the pushes feet in a couple pictures it looks like she has straps on her feet so it might be one of those life size dance characters 🤷🏻♀️ is it maybe the same product?
I was thinking the straps on the feet meant a kid was supposed to wear it 😳
@@imaginefun13 yeah, the point of it is you're supposed to wear it and then do dances and jumping jacks n stuff like that with it, it's weird but i think it's cute they made something to get kids to like exercising
I had a sponge bob one :)
10:26
I actually have the first Hello Kitty toaster listed, It's old and I think it was from 2013-2016 when we got it. We still use it because I like the texture combination of raw and crunchy.
7:25
*Just imagine this thing, slowly climbing from under your bed.*
*I would have a heart attack*
I would be chill and let her smother me in hugs
10:51 i Died efter he said that it's soooo hilarious after tried to voiced as a narrator in hello kitty
I think the KFC-Hello Kitty Christmas thing comes from the fact KFC has been a big thing around Christmas time in Japan for years, so adding a beloved cartoon cat into the mix would probably be pretty successful
Yeah! From what I understand it's more of a romantic holiday too, vs a kid focused one so if your partner was super into sanrio this is like one of the cutest ways of showing them you care :D
I had these horrifying soap bottles back in the day. Hello Kittys body was the actual bottle and her head was just a cheap plastic 'shell' on top of it. So in order to get any product, you always had to decapitate her!
3:59 I WANT THE CHUNKY CINNAMOROL 😭😭😭
Same!

Jokes on you, I’m just using this video as a shopping list. Thanks for doing all the work for me
if you're shopping for a keyboard definitely go for the akko ones. I got an akko keyboard (a non sanrio pink one) and it's pretty good.
(7:24) my friend, she has this and said, that when halloween comes(in 2023,last year) I will get a black suit on, but I can still see through it, put the straps on (the arms and legs strap) and walk around with a Halloween basket for halloween
Its crazy how this simple little character goes from on a coin purse to literally on every product you can think of, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a hello kitty dildo existed.
So proud of how far hello kitty has come, I've always been a fan of her for so long💕🙏
@@d4rln_snstr534 same lol
There is one
@Duskz it does exist? Give me the link.
@Alison Souder lol
A former roommate of mine was super SUPER into Hello Kitty/Sanrio and actually got her hands on some of the kitchen appliances because she worked at Target and there was a brief period of time where they were being sold there. I know for sure she had the white and pink rounded toaster, the *microwave* (wtf why), the waffle maker and I think there was a little water dispenser, too. It was wild to see them in action. They worked well enough but no better than something that was probably half the price. Also the microwave was *tiny*. Most standard plates couldn't fit inside it.
Ima need to steal your roommate from you. I spent over a thousand dollars on Sanrio products! We would be unstoppable!
@@sanrioandgraves8234 SAMEEEE I literally have the whole collection of Sanrio plushes :]

7:24 it’s a from a group of different plushies, that you could put your hand and feets through straps on the characters hands and feet, except because hello kitty’s limbs are usually visualized at stubby, they had to make the arms and legs long for it too work
my dad actually bought me the hello kitty bow mouse a few years back, originally i had no idea how i was realistically supposed to use it but weirdly enough, it gets pretty comfortable after using it for awhile
I love cinnamoroll💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅
I'm not sure if anyone else has said this, but the long Hello Kitty at 7:13 is a Hello Kitty Stretchkin! Stretchkins were made to encourage kids to exercise/make it fun by putting your hands and feet through the elastic bands. I actually have a unicorn one :)
5:43 ah, so thats where the biblically accurate puzzle came from
2:42 its her blood
Yes very 🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈

I don’t think I’ll ever sleep the same after seeing that long hello kitty.
7:12
i have a vauge memory of owning one of these, i think you were supposed to use the elastic to attach it to your hands and feet and puppeteer(?) it
What kind of childhood did you guys have 💀

Now it's time to info dump some random hello kitty items I think are cool. There was a child's play or "bride of Chucky" and "seed of Chucky" Collab. There some keychains, pins and most importantly two packs of plushies, there's a hello kitty themed Chucky, glen/Glenda, and Tiffany. The three pack is surprisingly rare while the two pack is more common. Some parts may be incorrect lol.
Thanks for reading also, I love your nails polygon!

I don’t know how hard this would be but would you consider doing this with Pokémon or Mario? There’s a lot of really rare strange Pokémon merch and Mario products are just insanely cursed.
6:16 something about pongon swearing is just so wrong for some reason
It's not actually a swear word
@@wiliwilo i agree
Nice nails! Love this cursed merch!

They are so adorable! I love how polish of all colors is becoming something anyone can wear!

Fun fact: Roger Hargreaves made the Mr. men series in August 1971. But in 2011, Sanrio agreed with Roger Hargreaves to aquire the rights of the series of Mr. men and Little miss. But Mr. men and little miss were owned by Chorion after the company was forced into administration, so they used the THOIP company to take over.
you should make a minions based cursed products list or a general Disney cursed products list
8:21, imagine if the situation was flipped lol. You just wanna buy a TV and next thing you know a package arrives at your door. Opening it, you now suddenly have this bright pink hello kitty Xbox in your possession.
Lol

OH MY GAH! ! !

Lollll
As a sanrio fan , people who find joy in making these are KRAYZEEE
7:17 ITS KITTY LONG LEGS
This is honestly my comfort channel now
I love your enthusiasm for all of these topics and stuff!
Aww thank youu
@Polygon Donut
you should make a “in a nutshell” of Cytus II
How has Hello Kitty not taken over the world yet? We will never know.
7:30 OMG I HAVE ONE FROM WHEN I WAS YOUNGER theyre these toys where you slide your hand into the like elastic band and ur feet, it is like a buddy that yiu walk with
Sometimes I wonder what the hell is going on Japan as so many exclusives are just so confusing
I really enjoy the trip into hyperfixations other have. This was a super cool video :)
2:28 is my favorite part of this video 💀👍
6:11 this reminds me hello kitty has colabed so much that she's even colabed with show by rock A SANRIO FRANCHISE
There’s a bunch of wacky weird Mario stuff. Like a toothbrush, a charger straightener and more on the wacky road of Mario toys!
10:22 You could replace Hello Kitty with anything else and it will transform into a new pokemon, it's kinda funny
😡
I own one of the long hello kitty plushes, she was marketed as a work out buddy where a child puts their hands and feet into the hand and feet straps on her and they do stretches together. doesnt make it less weird
The Hello Kitty garden spinner is definitely something you’d see in an Urbex video like 50-100+ years in the future. It just looks so dystopian and disjointed all on its own. I love those things and it weirds me out
As both a fan of Hello Kitty and Pringles, those plushies are my dream 💪 In general most of Hello Kitty (or Sanrio on general) products are amazing... I love them ✨
number one pringles fan
@@PolygonDonut Indeed
They all look so cursed that If I brought them to backrooms level 974 even Mr. Kitty would lose their SH*T. 💀
As an avasion person (also a ship person) i dint know sanrio has an airline up when i first watch this video
11:40 NO WAY I HAD THAT LCD GAME! That thing was basically a game and watch, no sound at all, but still, one of the best parts of my childhood.
11:00 HOLY SHIT I REMEMBER HAVING THE CALCULATOR ON THE VERY LEFT
You just brought back some memories
I recently bought a small, hello kitty shaped cast iron frying pan. It's suprisingly high quality and really cute! It's even got indents so if you made pancakes in it you could have one side match the shape of her face! I always loved Hello Kitty as a little kid so seeing these kinds of things make me pretty happy.
Just wanted to mention that the “long hello kitty” is indeed similar to stretchkins, a toy which is used for a child to put their feet and hands in the elastic holes to dance with it. There are ads on RUclips if you search it up.
I actually own that reversible Hello Kitty ramen plush at 4:52. I'm so upset the store didn't have any of the other designs that are way cuter
So cute
Now that this is a series, there NEEDS to be a garfield episode
I just found your channel today because of this video being suggested to me, and it scratched my brain in a good way and i’ve watched a few more of your videos and they also scratched my brain so i’ve decided this is one of my favorite channels now
THANKS FOR WATCHING, IM GLAD I CAN SCRATCH YOUR BRAIN
I actually own a reversible hello kitty food plush, and one side is hello kitty in an apple costume, and the other is just a straight up hello kitty apple.
0:56 hello kitty flip me off 😢😢
The more odd the sanrio product is, the rarer and more expensive it is.
I remember having the pink TV from when I was a kid. Sadly it gets no use now unless I want to play an old game.
3:36 I saw your nails painted
6:00 weaponized and militarized cats? WHY NOT?
the only thing more cursed than these products is the use of “goofy ahh” at 5:09 unironically being in your script😦
9:18 I vividly remember having one of the water mouses. :0 I used to be obsessed with Hello Kitty and pretty much had everything themed around it in my grandma’s house. I had Hello Kitty rugs, bedsheets, walls, toys, clothes, shoes, ect. I even had a Hello Kitty laptop. I had maybe a 100+ Hello Kitty plushy collection
