I keep asking everyone to confirm how BADASS these are. So let me set a few things straight&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Yes, I went the Kid Robot at 6pm to buy a set of &#8220;dolls&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>No, I will not tell you how much I spent on them (it&#8217;s easy enough to figure out)<\/li>\n<li>Yes, I went back at 6:30 to GET ON LINE to get all four signed<\/li>\n<li>No, I will not sell them on e-bay (even though I could make a fortune)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So this toy signing was like nothing I&#8217;ve ever been to before.  All of humanity came together for free Red Stripe, kickass music and of course, the chance to discuss the meaning of life.<\/p>\n<p>One discussion that my line-mates and I had was regarding which cultural category we now belonged to. I felt that waiting on line  to get some dolls signed might make me a bit of a dork. Another person in line said that she liked to think that we were hipsters. Yet another person liked the word &#8220;geek&#8221; because he also was a member of the masses that waited on line to see Star Wars. Whatever the label, we were all sweating our asses off to get these toys signed. I can&#8217;t explain what made me wait online to do this, but I (only partially joking) told everyone that this was our Woodstock. Are we all dorks because that made everyone laugh?<\/p>\n<p>If anyone has any pictures of the signing or knows of all the film cameras that were there, let me know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/www.kidrobot.com\/reports\/gorny.html<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[34,76,46],"class_list":["post-256","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music","tag-hip-hop","tag-music","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=256"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.lyricsoffury.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
