The Left and the lamestream media are doing everything they can to convince everyday average Americans that the country is a dumpster fire under the current administration. They even seem to be trying to convince everyone that their disposable income has evaporated. To which this writer says, Oh, really?
Toys 'R' Us to open 120 stores, biggest expansion in years - thanks to adults who 'didn't wanna grow up' https://t.co/WfuKFHvhwK pic.twitter.com/yudgTxdblU

If the economy is so bad, why is Toys R Us starting to thrive again? Digging deeper into the article. Toys R Us currently has 40 stores in America. Now, admittedly, when it filed for bankruptcy, it had over 700 stores. This news brings the new total to 160. It also seems the kids who grew up hearing that cherished jingle took it to heart because, per the data, 55 percent of sales come from adult-only households. Meaning a lot of us who grew up singing: ♫ I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Toys R Us kid ♪ really meant it!
I am one of those adults! 🤣🤣🤣

There seems to be a clear consensus on X about what the owners should do next.
Man this is awesome! I don't know how well they will do, but I'm rooting for them to succeed nonetheless. Ha! Can we bring back the old video game sale slips as well? pic.twitter.com/fpvoYU1Bxj

I’ll absolutely shop here over Amazon and Walmart. I want my kids to be able to have a place with great memories like we had as kids. There was a feeling of magic walking being here as a child.

As you can see, some folks seem really excited!
We have the largest one currently here in Omaha that opened up this year. I freaked out and cried a lil when I walked in to it for the first time since I was maybe 12.

Others not so much
They are very private equity-y we have one in Lakewood it’s not how we remember it. No Lego displays, no displays in general. No gaming demos. Feels like a Walgreens for toys.

Say what you want, but to the author, this feels like a real moment of the world being made right again.
Maybe brick-and-mortar retail didn't die after all. Just boring retail
