Took the word right out of my mouth. Oh man..the smell of cheap rubber and plastic as you entered the rainbow-colored wall of a Toys R Us.

Holy Lord, Child World in Cranston, RI. It was like a Sams Club or a Big Lots. It was like there was absolutely zero aesthetic to it. It was basically a building crammed with as much sh*t as you could fit in one store. Action figure aisle? 2nd aisle from the left in the back. Never forget it. I'll occasionally dream of it, or what my mind remembers of it. It was bliss. Absolute f**king bliss.
