I don't necessarily mean adult as in NSFW.

I'd probably bring in my RG280V. It was my first handheld emulator. I had emulated games on my phone in the past and even used a Bluetooth controller but playing on it felt different. More real in a way.

I grew up with the Game Boy so the idea of having thousands of games on the go is pretty neat to me.

I've since moved on to the RG405M.


What about you? Do you have anything neat or special to you that you could talk about for a couple minutes?

Would love to see photos as well

So I'm trans. And what I would bring is the Christmas ortament I got from a friend after coming out that says "Name's first Christmas".

That's super sweet and special, love it as a show-and-tell.

That's both hilarious and thoughtful. I love it and am totally stealing this idea.

You absolutely should! It's funny because she was kinda nervous about the idea because she was worried that it might be insulting since I'm not like, a baby. But I laughed so hard when I opened the box, and it's slayed everyone I've shown it too. 10/10, best gift ever.

Specially because that was otherwise a pretty bleak Christmas, had no blood family or girlfriend anymore. But my best friend from high school became my new family, so it all worked out I think!

My friends came and threw me an "It's a girl!" party. Friends are great.

Hahaha aww, that's cute and awesome!

The only acceptable use of a "gender reveal party!" ๐Ÿ˜‰
