What even is a "toy" or "toys"?
(lemmy.world)
I'd say it refers to any item purchased specifically for fun or entertainment rather than for any kind of practical purpose
I disagree. The line between tool and toy blurs. It's strictly a tool if you only have it to accomplish work. It could be considered a toy if you add embellishments to it, or if you are toying with it in the moment.
A stick of dynamite could be a toy, if you are ~~brave~~ dumb enough.
A stick of dynamite could absolutely be considered a toy if you're only using it to blow up something for fun instead of something that actually needed to be blown up for some legitimate reason
Same for tools!
I'm glad we could come to an agreement ๐ ๐ค๐

This implies that toys can't be homemade
Good point! They absolutely could be homemade as long as the item in question is just for fun!
Or that things initially obtained for a practical use can't also be used for recreation or amusement.
Anything you can insert into your genital or insert your genital into, like an easy bake oven or a bop it
Anything used for play is a toy.
Things you can play with.
Ed. Ed is a toy. Do you hear that Ed. You're my toy. Now get your god damn clothes off right now.

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
