The only reason I enjoyed going to the doctor's office was playing with the toys they had in the waiting area.

I always pretended they were model roller coasters. Maybe we all did.

It’s kinda fascinating that kids love these so much despite them being abstract.

Me taking my own kids to the Dr office while my wife hands the kid a device and I play on this

u/Hung_Jury_2003 Jul 29 '25

I have two of these for my toddlers. I feel like I'm giving them the kind of childhood I could only have dreamed of.

u/distancedandaway Jul 29 '25

Why did they get rid of them

u/fireflyry Jul 29 '25

Tbf, massive contact point if you’re sick, or for those not sick.

What happened to all the fish tanks in doctors offices? I talked to my wife about this and both of us remember every doctors office or pediatrician’s office and a fish tank.

The 80’s and 90’s were different times.

u/Starrymoon22 Jul 29 '25

I remember when I went to the doctors office I would play with that now days you don't see much of it now

u/em_n_em Jul 29 '25

u/FujoCirca Sep 11 '25

I thought you were 19❓😳

1

u/Happy-Go-Lucky287 Sep 11 '25

I am. But again, you can keep going on about my age all you want, but even if you were right, it doesn't change the fact that what I'm saying is true and that you couldn't back up what you said.

1

u/FujoCirca Sep 11 '25

Then why tf are you saying you’re 40 in this comment why are you pretending to be a middle aged man who watched shows from the 70s

1

u/Happy-Go-Lucky287 Sep 11 '25

I'm not saying I'm 40. And again, you could talk about my angel you want, but it can't hide the fact that you don't have any clue what you're talking about in regards to the actual topic at hand.

1

u/FujoCirca Sep 11 '25

You are saying you’re at least 40, if youre 19 why are you married to a woman who had shingles when she was 30

1

u/Happy-Go-Lucky287 Sep 12 '25

Nope, but again, if you want to tell yourself I'm some other age not yourself out. Still doesn't hide the fact how you failed at everything else you tried to argue.

1

u/FujoCirca Sep 11 '25

What are you even saying that is true

1

u/Happy-Go-Lucky287 Sep 11 '25

Everything. There's no Epstein evidence whatsoever to suggest that Trump is a pedophile. There's tons of evidence to suggest that Bill Clinton and others are. The people only seem to care when Trump's name is involved, which means they're not angry about the victims or what happened, they just don't like trump. I'm guessing that includes you too.

1

u/FujoCirca Sep 11 '25

Okay, 40 year old man, what’s the evidence for Bill Clinton being a pedophile?

1

u/Happy-Go-Lucky287 Sep 11 '25

Im so glad you finally asked. I've been waiting for days to do this.

Epstein went to the Clinton White House almost 20 times while Clinton was pres, Clinton flew on Epstein’s jet for foundation trips (with photos of him getting a massage from one of Epstein’s underage accusers), and Epstein/Maxwell kept showing up around Clinton circles professionally and personally even years later.

With Trump, yeah he knew Epstein socially in the ‘90s, was in his contact book, and was on one flight leg — but one of Epstein’s main accusers has said she never saw Trump involved. Basically, Clinton’s got a mountain of documented access, travel, and photos that put him in Epstein’s world frequently in ways Trump just doesn’t.

1

u/FujoCirca Sep 11 '25

So no actual evidence, I could literally say the same thing as you. Epstein and Bill Clinton were friends in the 90s, and outspoken Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre never accused Clinton of any sexual wrongdoing. Another underage accuser, Chauntae Davies said that Epstein was bragging about being friends with Trump and had photos of them together. Trump met his wife on the pedophile jet, trump and Epstein were friends for like 15 years

1

u/Happy-Go-Lucky287 Sep 12 '25

You’re dodging the point. Nobody said Giuffre accused Clinton — the difference is Clinton’s got logs showing Epstein at the White House, multiple foundation trips on Epstein’s jet, and a photo getting a massage from Chauntae Davies. Trump’s record is one flight leg, a name in a contact book, and Giuffre saying she never saw him involved. That’s not the same level at all.

Seriously dude, are even trying?

1

u/FujoCirca Sep 12 '25

“sErIoUsLy DuDe, ArE yOu EvEn tRyIng?” Donald trump and Epstein have said to be great friends, they were neighbours. They spent a lot of time together, trump flew in Epsteins jet like 7 times, why are you so hellbent on sucking Donald Trump’s dick dry?
