1975's Pet (Pet Rock)

13 years back, we have the "In-Thing" called Tamagotchi. I believe you have one



Do you know back to year 1975, before you were borned (if you are as young as me ^ . ^), there was a FAD called "Pet Rock"


"Pet Rocks were ordinary gray stones bought at a builder's supply store and marketed as if they were live pets. ", quoted in wikipedia.

It come with user manual, so that you know how to take good care of your "pet"



you can teach your "pet" how to attack

you also can learn how to differentiate different breed of "pet"



If you holding a rock now and called it as your pet, what would others think about you?
What if everyone doing the same thing, isn't it become so called "acceptable trend"?

JiaNi,
when I was young that time, i pooling the capital with my sisters to bought a "non-original" tamagochi. I remember that time the price was around RM40. As our allowance around RM1 a day...so you can imagine how hard to save that money to buy it.

pet rock was in year 1975 (u havent born yet), that time tamagochi havent invented...someone just come out that idea to sell the rock as the pet...


yinghei,
How many rock you wanna buy? i sell to you. hahaha!
