    Yeah I’m personally a fan of “in 2008 the Sonic the Hedgehog series sold so much merch that people actually stopped buying houses. It directly led to the 2008 housing bubble and the massive inflation that followed. Following the recession, congress passed a rule, limiting when, where, and how much merchandise a single series was allowed to sell in stores. Google ‘Sonic Inflation Rule 34’ to find out more.”
