Um...nothing? [Pokemon and Digimon are the official names, but the longer names are a bit like secondary titles for books--think the Lord of the Rings].

I barely know what a "Pokeman" is.

It's actually been around for a while. I believe it was a 90's thing, too.

I wonder if they still have "wacky packages." Now that was funny!

"Wacky Packages" were trading cards that sort of "mocked" established products like:

"Big Muc" was a play on the Big Mac. It made the McDonald's hamburger into mud.

"Freetoes" was a play on "Fritos Corn Chips."

You should look it up. You would laugh uproariously.

I may have collected those if we had them here.
Amusing.

I know, the dynamics change.
It's a good job we have all the others here still.

I wished I was here more often,but since I'm attending university I'm limited to using the internet.
Actually, I lost my home computer due to a tactical mistake on my part of a permanent nature. So, I'm having to rely on library computer usage for the time being till, I'm able to acquire the resources to build my own computer system.

I hope you find those resources soon Mr Kazanscube.
I think I would be lost without my faithful laptop.
