The lower picture is a laser pointer in a case with filter tips, these tips will break up the beam into shapes/symbols to be projected on the wall.
and the coolest kid at the beach had one
hahaha
I have not thought of laser pointers for at least 15 years. I totally forgot how damn cool they were.
~~were~~ are
I have to use them professionally. That's why I got one in a different color from everyone else. Ok really it's that my old boss's boss had one a different color from everyone else and I didn't like the guy so I decided to be different too knowing that's exactly the kind of crap that gets under his skin. But also it's nice to have everyone know when you're the one laser pointing
I don't know how old you are, but these laser pointers, and the assorted different projection pattern caps, where the bee's knees when I was a kid.
I believe a Prince Albert is involved
This is his dildo collection.
boof it
I have to get something off my chest. In the 90s, I was the little shit stain that was using these at the movie theatre. I apologize to all the Gen Xers that I pissed off. ✊🙏😢
Just wanted to say fuck you.
The last time a kid tried that in a theater, the audience booed so hard that we didn't see it for the rest of the film. We probably scared the shit out of him, haha.
My friend, pissing off Gen Xers is a time honored pastime o7
Da fuq? Pissing off boomers is the mission, leave us out of it!
I can have two missions. Have you seen my pile?
Well sure, but that's a thing we have in common, much like hating on boomers. What did Gen-X do to offend?
Look, while you were looking at my pile look what Gen-X did to it
...I hate to admit it, but I'm lost. Who's who in this meme? Also, if you're gonna be hostile, Simpsons is OURS not yours, find your own memes.

Dude step back a second. Remember this scene? He's about to get attacked by bees. It's his sugar pile. Season like... 3 or 4. He just pulls a random british dude out who says he "nicked it for his tea and he'd do it again".
i thought i was joshin with you but let's take five, okay? it's a memes community. i think you were marge.
Holy fucking nineties.
Plot twist: all are the same smiley face.
those were sick as fuck
"Were"?
Damn OP, leave some pussy for the rest of us.
I've seen so many of these as a child only to be disappointed that all of the laser pointers are out of battery and I never could find a shop that sells them.
Dollar stores? And weren't they standard batteries?
Sort of, they required those tiny ones, and there were a number of standards IIRC. Most importantly, we've thrown those laser pointers away now. Now I got batteries but not lasers.
I found a laser pointer at PetCo this weekend that charges via USB. Just remove the cap on the end, and plug it in like a flash drive. No cable necessary. Never seen one that didn't require the three little batteries, so I snatched it up so quickly.
I don't know what I am looking at. Please help. 😅
A laser pointer with all sorts of tops that display different images or patterns.
🙏😊
Butterfly tho
My cat would love it
