Perhaps in 210 years, after the world has ended due to nuclear war, Pogs will come back as a form of common currency

+Alim Enarnbn forver stuck in an eternity of garish colours and decent music

A Pog-like currency is actually used by the US military in certain circumstances.

Who uploaded Jim Sterling's porn collection to KZbin?

[@NovastarDoughnut]

[@zixise]

:) what are we talking about?

[@djordan51]

FUCKING OUTRAGEOUS RIGHT!?!?!?!!

[@ChadWSmith]

i think you mean "Pog Collection"

[@popperama6478]

who hasn't!? it is my favorite pastime

[@stumbling]

9:31 "James, I ... I ..." "Yes, Catherine?" "I want to play POG with you, James." "I want to play POG with you too, Catherine." "But is it authentic?" "It's authentic all-right, Catherine. Gosh golly is it authentic!" "Oh, James!"

[@Joob_Toob]

This is a criminally underrated coment

[@aborted4196]

SICK BRUH

[@Psyched_Crow]

Ashens is back, but in pog form!

[@raddude7772]

You sold my soul for pogs!!!!

[@trivious]

Lol

[@BrightSpark]

But is he a real Pog, or a faker?

[@eoin730]

remember alf! he's back, in pog form!

[@blobbem]

You guys are too quick with these sick references.

[@n0isyturtle]

They clearly don't realize POG stands for Pineapple Orange Guava - the Hawaiian beverage these caps were originally packaged with.

[@cloud_tsukamo]

Wait... Are you serious?

[@n0isyturtle]

cloud tsukamo Yes. In fact they still sell Pog in US grocery stores. It's ok. Guess the P stands for Passion though ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@PrcrstNt]

+Dritto1010 Kmart is awesome!

[@tinnyle2719]

That sounds delicious

[@alpinez28]

The "P" was actually passionfruit.

[@vilotarian]

I love when you two have crossovers, you guys are a great comedy duo.

[@fighterxaos1]

The only thing I have to say about pogs are : "remember Alf? He's back! In pog form"

[@zero0karaoke]

I am very surprised that Ashens never referenced that line.

[@spoods4628]

Took me a bit to remember who said that.

[@jksmellie]

Given that he never caught on to pogs (as he says in the video) he probably never saw the reference.

[@charliem8269]

isn't this milhouse from the simpsons who said this?

[@SiGhast]

The opening of POG packages together like that is the most romantic thing I've seen this week.

[@lily91109]

The word "pog" now looms in my mind, his face burned into my thoughts.

[@meagnelhug9976]

TWO MINUTES AGO I DON'T KNOW WHAT A POG IS BUT I'M STILL EXCITED

[@sshep86]

You must be young if you haven't heard of POGS. They were so awesome. I'm 30 and me and my mates went crazy for these in school. Tazos were awesome too. Similar but with Warner Bros cartoon characters.

[@mexrell]

21 here probably just missed the pogs days i've always heard about them but never knew what they were thought they were something else actually

[@sshep86]

Yeah. You would of missed it. Used to get these in crisp packets too. Wotsits I believe and then walkers crisps ( who didn't own wotsits back then) started putting tazos in there crisps to compete.

[@BrightSpark]

I heared about them ages ago when I was a little kid. I believe I even had some of them, but I totally forgot about them until a few months ago when Jim Sterling talked about Pogs in the Jimquisition, and I believe a bit later Dan made his first video about Pogs.

[@anterax4097]

+Steven Sheppard Don't go sugar coating it. Pogs were absolute shit. The proof is in the pudding: they're so paranoid that consumers will notice they are being ripped off with pictures on cardboard caps, they have to CONSTANTLY remind you to keep buying and playing.

[@custodeon]

Pogs are actually the unofficial physical notation for Bitcoin.

[@gui18bif]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

[@FixxxerKH202]

These pogs were lame. I had all laminated ones with crazy pictures, characters, and holographic ones. I also had slammers that were like dull saw blades with holograms in the center. Now I'm going to have to go to my parents and look for them.

[@CuriosityRocks]

Yeah me too :D

[@annikagustav472]

Yeah! There were some awesome ones out there. I remember I had a saw blade slammer and a lot of zombie pogs back in my day.. These were a dull set, but it's nice to look back on the last anyways!

[@stevenqbosell]

I had that razor summer. Shit was too legit

[@stevenqbosell]

+Steve Bosell *slammer

[@matahari9858]

so the only reason you'd visit your parents is to look for pogs???

[@PatriciaCross]

Capitalism; "Hey poor kids are playing with the caps from milk bottles! Lets charge them for them!!!"

[@sirgallant5000]

In capitalism people create products that other people may or may not buy. In socialism the government creates products that you may or may not want and forces you to pay for them. So enlightened.

[@worldsmostmediocre1745]

pogs aren't allowed to be classics yet, I'm not that old, I refuse

[@annikagustav472]

I totally hear you on that.... Cheers mate!:(

Im only 16 and had tons of those and all the kids played them where i live at school

[@animationguy1000]

+John wolf seriously? You went to a strange school, because I know no one who's heard of pogs.

[@lasarousi]

anything later than the 90s is already classic, if your advice 30 your already very old.

[@HydraCFW]

So Dan is nerdcubed? All this time I just thought he was a bloke who ran a shop down the road or something lol

[@ArtyI]

No. The usual Dan isn't NerdCubed. This Dan is NerdCubed.

[@jafafa]

Milkcaps were from old glass milk bottles that were delivered in the USA back when you actually had milkmen come to the house. The bottles had foil caps, in the center of the cap was a cardboard disc... so that's what these came from. They actually had these indentations in them that were there so you could use the v-shaped part to help open the bottle. If you look on ebay, you can find whole vintage caps from the 1950s, etc.

[@lindse5241]

POG stands for Passion Orange Guava, which is a drink that you can buy in Hawai'i (where the game was popularized by Japanese Immigrants) I went to a elementary school in early 2000s that was still playing the game on the north shore of Oahu, many people did not use slammers as they considered them cheating and just hit a basic POG on top of the others to flip them over. Eventually it was banned as it was considered gambling, however you can still buy tubes of the caps at swap-meets all over Hawai'i

[@MrLiveEra]

Wow, this really brings me back,

[@MrLiveEra]

I can assure you they were fun back in the day. You got dupes so you could gamble them in a game.

[@slaughterround643]

Okay. Cool.

[@minkle]

It was rough seeing Ashens just drop the slammer, they should've built up 15+ Pogs to play.

[@Andoryuuu]

Where did you go?

[@n0isyturtle]

I still have an OJ Simpson guilty or innocent slammer. it's probably the most '90s thing I own.

[@alecjahn]

Ah, the good 'ol days where you'd collect pieces of colored circular cardboard, stack them, and then knock them over with a similarly sized chunk of metal/plastic.

[@face4radio]

Newfangled nonsense, I much prefer the days of knocking balls of glass into similarly sized balls of glass

[@maybenah]

Our lord Jim has called you out for crappy pogs. Thank god for jim.

[@slay3rm00n]

I had so many tubes of pogs when I was a kid, and plenty of slammers too. My favorite slammer was a thick copper one with an 8 ball engraved and painted black on one side, and had a thumb indention. I used to love playing people and could flip whole stacks so no one ever wanted to play me for keeps. I have wanted to have these again for so many years.

[@TheNastyFiles]

My favorite slammer was made of metal and had spikes.

[@dawsongranger4940]

Sounds very pleasant.

[@JanoyCresvaZero]

Mine was metal and shaped like a frog.

[@MortalAnonymous]

Mine was super thick gold metal with a holographic 3D skull as the center. = 3

[@boopmeister_]

+Mortal Anonymous ahh the 90's

[@Vykk_Draygo]

+Mortal Anonymous I had a similar one, just no holo on the skull. Other kids were jelly, 'cause the heavier slammers were best, obviously.

[@rednefarious6968]

I had that same batman one but in green. And like a thousand other pogs my dad got me. Not one by one mind you he got them from a comic book store that closed down and was convinced they'd be worth a fortune one day.

[@rcm616-j5t]

"Dear 1994. Your Pogs are substandard and repetitive"

[@Safer7Sephiroth]

The only pog related thing I kept was this one slammer, and it's quite bizarre. Its from an apparently NASA licensed pog set that was given away at Hardee's (a burger chain exclusive to the American south) from 1995 (so, about a year and 6 months after pog's literal relevance to anything) to capitalize on the success of the Tom Hanks movie. I kept it because it was a very nicely minted and heavily detailed coin with the Apollo 13 mission insignia.

[@secondswell]

I got the whole set and the rocket I know exactly what slammer your talking about I got them at Hardee's over a period of like 3 weeks.

[@MortalAnonymous]

Basically the only cool thing about pogs was the slammers. XD

[@Safer7Sephiroth]

Mortal Anonymous I remember, it was back before Carls JR bought hardees and they had this amazing ive cream. I had the rocket and everything, too, but I ended up donating a lot of my old toys.

[@NeededFourOfficial]

[@lunavixen015]

Jim Sterling just gave you a shoutout on the Jimquisition

[@ChrissieBear]

"POG is a tropical juice drink created in 1971 by a food product consultant named Mary Soon who worked for Haleakala Dairy on Maui, Hawaii. It consists of a blend of juices from passionfruit, orange, and guava (hence POG)."

[@brziperiod]

Where were you in december?

[@itsnouse-yourswillbeastill2562]

I loved the metal & plastic pogs. The artwork & colour were rad!

[@vampiressofshaddows]

Ah pogs! I remember how much my parents hated them, because I was the 'Pog queen' in my primary school (I was 4 when they came out) I had hundreds of the bloody things, and the parents of other kids used to complain when their kids wound up losing most of their pogs at school. Come to think of it, there's probably still a box of them up in the loft! lol! And I had the whole set of holographic Batman slammers. I think I may have turned my purple one into a keychain at one point....

[@kuroshiro3267]

Pogs or "Tazos" as we call them , are very popular here in Mexico, they often come in chip bags, and there has been a big variety (Pokemon, All kinds of anime, movies, or Tv shows) They use them as a collective craze to sell chip bags basically. I loved collecting them in elementary school

Tazos were insanely popular in Brazil from the mid '90s to the mid 2010s, when they came in Elma Chips crisp packets. We got Looney Toons, Animaniacs, Cartoon Network, and Yu-Gi-Oh! sets. There was even a weird "spin-off" themed after the Justice League cartoon, where you could "disassemble" the Tazos and turn them into spining tops

[@dylaxiusmccoy]

Oh my god. Too. Much. Nostalgia. I can actually smell the smell of popping open my old storage tube of pogs right now. Really hope I kept them somewhere...

[@HongKongPhooey89]

So when do we get a "Dashens" channel?

[@wulfone5961]

When I was a kid I had some pogs. I believe I even had some of the official ones and some of the fake ones. No body cared. We just used them all. I even had a slammer (that's what they called the thing you hit the pogs with) that was shaped like a saw blade. Yes the best pogs were the ones that had licensed characters or movie stuff on them. I had some JP pogs. They even had these weird plastic tubes with caps on the end that you could keep them in. Probably around 1995 I traded them to someone for blue Velcro wallet and a pocket knife. It was 1995 and I was 11. But pogs turned out to be completely worthless.

[@henritzspook]

[@oscarsalomonsson1093]

God the noice of when you touch the pogs. (GONE SEXUAL) (ALMOST DIED)

[@THEdragonOfRainbows]

To each their own, but I hate that noise! When I heard it I cringed, it made me feel almost physically uncomfortable!

[@rich1051414]

When I was in middle school, I was given a pog maker as a gift for christmas or my birthday or something, which was like a giant hole punch and sticky pogs, and I took a nudey mag I stole, and made nudey pogs I sold to kids at school. I made a lot of money until one of the kids parents found the pog and interrogated the kid, and then I got suspended. My parents didn't even get that mad. They acted almost proud of my entrepreneurial skills. They may of been relieved it wasn't drugs though.

[@FruitPuppyYT]

That is a good story.

[@Killer1986Chris]

Damn it whose turn is it to clean up the mess the bull made?

[@pryingeyes1551]

Well, not having a side business in which you sell massive hits of acid disguised as pogs seems like a missed opportunity. All in all, a pretty cool story. How long were you suspended for?

[@KougajiCalling]

I sold kool-aid packets... Because the "cool" thing at the time was snorting it...

[@paulwilkinson3963]

To be fair, i was obsessed with these when i was a kid and there is a significant difference in quality compared to the "fake" Pogs you could get.

[@XanthinZarda]

No wonder they up and died around the time of TCGs. Pogs were complete rubbish!

[@anterax4097]

They sucked all kinds of assholes.

[@IndygoEEI]

Pogs was actually a fun game, but what really killed them was the schools banning them because of all the trouble they caused. I had the best slammer on the schoolyard because my dad bought it for me. It's kind of like what happens to Ralphie in My Summer Story, where his dad unwittingly buys him the best top. Anyways, after I got that slammer I owned the schoolyard because of it's unique configuration. It had a stud on the back to make the pogs stick and flip over. It was also both an 8 ball and a Poison slammer in one (The local rules made these 1hks to the stack. Poison was instakill with no slamming required and 8 ball required the flip of at least one pog to collect them all). So I had the best slammer on the yard until someone stole it. Within a week of it being stolen (I confronted the guy and he almost started a fight with me), Pogs were banned and instantly they worthless. In hindsight, it was just a game for bragging rights. No one except for a few cared too much about the designs and if you liked one of the designs then you pretty much played it the least possible.

[@DAN.eight6]

+IndygoEEI think you hit the nail on the head there. was a playground hit until the teachers banned them and they faded out. goes to show what power schools have on a product.

[@Overhazard]

My school district banned Pokémon cards not long after they debuted (which was the first TCG to really make a splash--the other ones were niche at best, even Magic). The ban was understandable too: A lot of violence broke out as the kids did anything to "catch 'em all," with knife fights, death threats, and rampant theft. Someone spied on me, learning my locker combination, and waited by my locker to open it just because I had a Blastoise. I don't know if POGs were ever banned, but as far as I know, Pokémon was and still is the only card game to be banned in my schol district.

[@Doogeedoo12]

I used to have 3 full canisters of POGs when I was a kid. One canister was half full of different slammers. I never really knew anyone else that had them or played, I just liked to collect all the different designs and artwork. There were some really wicked POGs in my collection, but one day they just disappeared. I'm assuming from my mom collecting toys and giving them away/selling them.

[@capness1228]

The weird moment when you realized that almost all the ideas that sells for a fortune started with a cardboard pog.

[@sock2828]

POG actually stands for "passion orange guava" because those are the juices in it. It's delicious.

[@GoesAroundAndAround]

Pogs first came about when I was about 6,and then returned briefly when I was about 9. I remember Tazos (the Looney Tunes ones) in packets of Walkers Crisps being so sought after that people would feel up all their packets of crisps in the shop to find the packets with them in, and putting the now-crushed, dud bags back on the shelf). I also remember Tazos being banned from pog matches because they were bloody impossible to flip. I also remember steel "spinner" slammers, which were spiky metal ones designed to pick up speed and flip more Pogs. Also remember them being banned from schools, assumably after taking some small child's face off as we always had our faces inches from the bloody stack! Mine were stolen in the playground and eventually we all moved on to Pokémon cards.

When I was about five I remember my older cousin giving me a huge caramel popcorn bucket (a plastic one with a lid) absolutely full of pogs and a few tazzos.

It was alright if I was very, very bored and couldn't think of any adventures with my Little Ponies.
