1987

Today I was at the Dollarama buying notebooks when I found, amongst waves of red and pink, Popple Valentines cards. Do you remember Popples? They were hugely popular when I was a little kid and they didn't really stay popular like Care Bears, or become items of nostalgia, like Atari systems and the original Power Rangers. How odd that they would choose Popple to band their cards with. Is Dollarama just way ahead of the game as to what is going to be the next big vintage "it" thing? Perhaps they're psychic. Or evil. How else can they afford to sell such quality stuff for only a dollar.

All of my friends can expect Popple valentines this year.
