    I think the main reason Furbies go haywire so often is due to the fact they are a wonderful combination of fairly sophisticated and built cheaply, meaning that there is a whole plethora of epic ways they can fail

    I used to have a Furby which would say “Me love you” all the time. Once I was sleeping and it did a demonic screech and it then yelled “IM CHANGING, IM CHANGING”. Now it is a middle aged man in his 80s going “look at his butt” then maniacally laughing after then changing voices and saying “it looks wet”. Also, once, I got a lot of Furbys and had them as a collection. On a sleepover with my friend, two of them fell over at the same time, one said “S***!” and the other one said “F***!”. They didn’t even know what the word meant.

    Might be late and unrelated but still thought I'd share.
    I used to have this talking Scooby-Doo toy as a kid who was meant to say "Rehehehe!! I'm Scooby!" when you pressed a button under his felt on his chest. There was a small toy that came with it and you were supposed to find "ghosts" (completely imaginative). One day my Scooby fell from my shelf and hit its speaker directly on the corner of my desk.
    From that day on, any time you pointed the extra toy and "found a ghost", instead of Scooby saying "Ruh-Roh", he'd wail at the pitch of a middle aged man.

I loved it when I was young, but it drove mom insane, so she took the battery out of it. It kept going, so she threw that thing into a box and covered it with blankets and stuff until it shut up. Five or six years later we found it, and I popped some batteries in just for the sake of nostalgia. All of the motors and stuff inside of the furby worked, but the speaker sure didn't. I promise you, furbies that can talk are terrifying enough, furbies that can still move around but can't talk or somehow even more terrifying.

    The other naturally terrrifying thing about furbies is how durable they are. A child had no chance against one. Try ripping the fur off to get at the meachanisms? The fur is extremely durable and riveted to the animatronics. Gum up the gears with metal or play doh? No chance; The thing will still talk and attempt to move best it can. Take out the batteries? Only if you have an adult, or you magically find a star-head screwdriver that's small enough - and that's also assuming the Furby actually turns off when no longer powered, which these stories prove it can still function on residual power. Crush it with something heavy? Anything short of the family minivan and the thing will make it out unharmed. It takes extreme measures to destroy one of those things.

    One of my middle school teachers owned a furby. He said that after a while, it quit working. A few days later, however, it woke up around midnight and started begging to be played with. He and his brother obviously wanted the quickest solution to the problem, so they ripped the batteries out of it. Furbies must somehow have a good bit of residual charge, because it kept at it for two hours. They got so frustrated that they grabbed it, went outside and through it onto the street in front of their house. Inevitably it was crushed by oncoming traffic, but it was still talking by the next morning, despite being completely pulverized.

I remember looking for it like maybe a month afterwards and found that it had completely disappeared from existence. 5 years later I go up there and it’s just sitting on a shelf above the ladder looking down.

    My grandma has a collection of plastic furbys. They don't make noise, but they are pull back toys, and when you let them go, their ears wiggle. You can also push their tail to make their eyes flutter. My brother and I would play games where they would go to war. I never thought they were the cutest things in the world, but I had no idea what real furbys were like and I'm so glad we only had those plastic ones.

    The going rogue part is absolutely true. My furby used to switch personalities all the time so i never knew what it wanted from me. In the end we just took it's batteries out every night so it wouldn't randomly wake me up, and at some point i just left the batteries out forever.

    The older generations wonder why Gen-Z’s humor is so messed up, or why we joke around about serious things.
    We were raised with demons that were treated like toys. That is why.

      It's because most of gen z is fucked in the head. Dark humor has existed before gen z but gen z's version of "dark humor" is fucked up. Joking around about 9/11 ect.. then getting upset when somebody said something many years in the past (n word, world views etc..) because a person changing apparently isn't something psychologically possible.

      @@camillo4308 joking about serious or sad things is a good way of coping with it.
      The whole "this person said this 5 years ago" is just stupid but not just a "gen z" thing. It's mainly because of the fact that everything you say on the internet is pretty much permanent, and in most social media something posted 10 years ago looks exactly the same as something posted today... You have no perception of time, and that leads to this problem.

    My father brought Furby from America in 2002. It was some old 1990's model. It cost a lot for him and we never saw mechanical toys like that one before. I loved him sooo much, called him Farbic (based on wrong reading the name of the creature due to lingual barrier) I remember his Yyyuuuuummm thing and cartoonish owl like giggles when I touched his tummy. Cried my eyes out when he died.

    This isn’t a furby but it’s still a neat story.
    When I was little I had a plush Ernie from Sesame Street that would talk and all that.
    It was low on batteries one night and we didn’t have any in the house so mom took the batteries out and gave me the toy to sleep with.
    Middle of the night, it starts making noise. Low-pitched, bizarre noises. My mom freaked out when she heard it, took the toy, threw it in the driveway and backed over it in her car over and over

    For years i've had one in my house but never worked at all by the time we got it. It was always inside a tools closet that i frequently opened, never scared me but it's state did sadden me a few times. However, before it's final years of being always "off", if you got close enough, you could ocassionally hear some kind of static, furbish like, low pitched whispers coming out of it. I think it was trying to speak but was never able to, so eventually it fully closed it's eyes on it's own and died peacefully.

    My furby didn't malfunction, it just ran out of batteries. I was six, playing with my sister who was four, when the furby started getting a lower voice gradually. We got scared really bad, we put it in the closet and heard its last calls of agony, getting more and more distorted and weird, until it finally died. To make matters worse, I don't remember it ever speaking with words, just sounds. This scared my sister and I so much that to this day we both perfectly recall the event despite the fact that it was so long ago. I did not expect her to remember but she didn't have to think about it when I asked her.

    When I was in the second grade my cousin had this creepy old Elmo doll that she claimed was her dead brother's doll. She brought that thing to school every Thursday because she claimed it was a "special day". One Thursday when we were just about to get out of school, she left it on top of her cubby. I decided to mess with her a bit and move it in a different position that she had it. The next day, THE WHOLE CLASS WENT BERSERK. Everyone was yelling that it was demonic and needed to be banned. While I on the other hand was giggling at their stupidity. That afternoon in afterschool care some kid threw it behind the cubbies and we couldn't get it out. It was just staring blankly at us. We had a school lockdown after that because of a reason I still don't know. I visited my old school the other day( it's abandoned) and decided to check on my old 2nd grade room. And there it was, Elmo, in the exact same spot on top of the cubbies that he was 8 years ago.
