Things that are intended for small children but are mostly liked by 20somethings
I was thinking about this yesterday and wanted to make a long list but could only think of two off hand:

Pokemon
Yo Gabba Gabba!

Anyone have other examples?

1. Pacifiers - for the twenty-something MDMA user

10. I like baby food apricots in plain yogurt once in a while-
and my teenage son and I think Gerber naturally flavored fruit gummie 'snacks' are tasty, better than artificially flavored gummy candy.

2. Pokemon?
You mean those things my son used to love when he was 5 might be of some value? Nah, I don't believe it.

Someone already said it, but also 'Hello Kitty.' lol I was weirded out when I saw a Hello Kitty-inspired assault rifle for sale online. I mean, really? :)

This aspie grew out of them, fortunately...
