Labubus are still a thing? I thought that wave of idiocity had passed already?

Not just yet. Now that the knowledge of Labubus is mainstream they will go out of fashion soon. But there will be one last wave while normies pretend to be fashionable.

Honestly thought South Park made them up, I had never heard of them before that. It’s beanie babies all over again.

I am a good benchmark for this stuff. If I know what Labubu is because I had to find it on Urban Dictionary then it has run its course.
The other canary is NPR. Anything on NPR is a dead meme.

I think the company lost like a quarter of its value recently

Considering the economy, they’ll be here for a while.

I can afford a labubu. But why would I buy one
simplejack@lemmy.world 8 hours ago
Because the social safety net is broken and gambling on rare labubus is your retirement now.

I just yesterday watched a video by Emma Thorn making fun of people who think these are demonic. Never heard of them before

The screenshot is bad enough that I can't tell if this is a troll where they took a picture of the back of one, or where they actually collected that much dog hair for a joke photo.

It looks like a clear plastic case full of hair to me!

The first time I had ever heard about labubus was the last episode of South Park. I thought they were just some dumb thing Matt and Trey came up with to use as a vehicle to talk about the tariffs, then I learned they were actually real.
