Toot

It's that time of year where we collectively boost LEGOs stock price by blindly buying more LEGO kits for our various nieces and nephews!

With their brick buy-back program it's really starting to feel like we're just shuffling extinct dinosaurs in brick form around and around.

@bendelarre there’s a brick recycling store near my nephews so this extends to gift certificating them the opportunity to hand select their own collection of preused bricks to bring to life brand new sets, too.

The shuffle is real!

@westbrook I've not been able to get my Dad to part with any of the bricks he's accumulated since he was a kid. Our family now has 3 full generations of LEGO bricks in active use.

@bendelarre I don’t think we have that in the Netherlands but I also somehow feel I should hang on to mine

@maarteuh you too can one day pass on a chest full of LEGO that has been partially inserted into snotty orifices by multiple generations of your ancestors!
