the rise of fidgeting toys is so facinating to me because as a neutrotypical person it honestly made it harder for me to fidget with items and toys because they’re seen as, well, toys, and not things i need to focus. it makes me wonder what the catalyst was for them to suddenly explode in the market

Idk how old you are but I found that once I was out of high school, and in to college and jobs, people care a lot less about them and are a lot more open to their use. Most adults have something they fidget with but don’t notice (pens, markers, jewelry, ext), so once you say oh I just need something in my hands, they leave it at that (at least at the places I’ve worked). Good luck!

Fidgeting is used primarily as a coping skill for neurodivergent folk. A lot of neurotypical people copied the style of fidgeting, but to them fidgeting was more about playing with and having fun like a usual toy then helping with anxiety or sensory processing issues. I remember being neurodivergent in a classroom and needing fidgets to help stay still, and having other classmates who were neurotypical using fidget spinners to play with, which made a loud whirring noise I could pick up on especially well, and it did a good job distracting me while the fidgets I used were stress balls or stretchy toys and were quiet. I could pick up on small sounds especially well, and they didn’t even need fidgets in the first place, they just had them because they were trendy. Many neurodivergent adults need to use fidgets even though they are primarily seen as for kids.

I remember slime becoming popular in my country (Spain) via Chinese Bazaars selling the garbage slime cans of unnamed brands for really cheap. The smell was weird and I'm pretty sure those slimes were toxic for the skin, but they were a little popular. Then the slime trend died out until internet slime happened and pharmacies made a nice profit out of contact solution to the point that you needed to present an eye prescription to buy contact liquid due to shortage

I guess I have 0 taste because I never really wanted to get slimed. It just seemed like it'd be annoying as hell to clean and not that fun of an experience while it happened. That's also why I don't really like getting wet even, because it takes so long to dry off. It's just pointless downtime that isn't really worth it.

It’s an awesome way to ease anxiety and I definitely think the market for slime gets bigger every day!

I've been pretty active in the slime community ever since it's rebirth in 2016, and watching it evolve through the years has been really neat. It started out as a cute, sparkly and and aesthetically pleasing kids toy, to being a sort of art-form. There are many smaller creators in the slime community that make slimes more "artistically driven," i guess you can say LOLLL. Apart from it being a satisfying fidget thing, it's also become an outlet to express emotion, share stories, and inspire. Slowly but surely, it's evolving to become a collectible of sorts. There are many older teen/adults who are genuinely interested in this hobby, and add their own unique spin to the products. It's very cool. I too am very curious to see how far slime will go in this day and age, especially with these more creative and artistic creators blossoming in the community 👍

Great video! I will say though, it wasn't Nickelodeon that was throwing rotten food on kids. YCDTOT was an acquired show from Canada and they were sliming kids for years before Nickelodeon picked up the show, even though they did request more at some point but that was much farther in when the slime wasn't rotting food anymore (and even the rotting food anecdote has been debated by people who worked on the set). And we know what the Double Dare Slime was. It was applesauce, vanilla pudding, green food dye and powder coffee creamer. There's a lot of different recipes for slime that have been used over the years but the slime used at Nick was always edible.

Until watching this video I didn't realize that I was a "slime-kid". As a kid I loved these garbage can slimes with worms in it (they still kinda appeal to me to this day tbh) and I watched the slimey-content of Nickeloden on a daily basis. Today I really enjoy those ASMR slime posts on social media, those are calming like no other content. Maybe this was the result of the early influences of slime-based content and toys? I kinda just now realized how slime was pretty much consistent through my childhood up to this day. 🤔

Probably the closest thing I have to a slime toy are those Heroes of Goo-Jit-Zu figures. I'm almost convinced they were inspired by the popularity of slime toys from the late 2010's haha. Like with slime, you could stretch and squish the toys, and they have unique fillings that make them really fun to play with. Later waves also had some unique gimmick to make them more appealing. Half the appeal is the toys having characters you can get attached to like Blazagon and Trash, thus letting you play with them like with an action figure. I only have one toy from the Galaxy Attack line, but I'd love to get more of them! GA Blazagon is just so fun to hold and squish.

I think for me and many kids who were in primary school in the UK in the late 90's-early 00's, the craze of 'alien eggs' was an early experience of having your own slime. They were clear plastic eggs that could be opened, and contained a squishy rubber alien foetus wrapped in slime. They were collectables with many colour combinations which couldn't be seen until you opened the packaging, which made some colours rare and desirable. There were always rumours about how, if kept under the right conditions (temperature, slime colour), the alien could become pregnant and give birth to another alien (which was obviously false). I think it turned out that there was another company who did actually make 'pregnant' versions of the same toy, so it's no surprise this rumour spread.

I once found a bottle of Green Slime Shampoo in the back of a linen closet in my childhood home. This was probably in like 2012. I was born in 1994 so it felt like uncovering a lost artifact of a long gone culture (my older brother's childhood). Still looked like slime, tho I didn't have the courage to put it on my body.

Meanwhile in the UK when it came to slime stuff we had these alien toys with a rubber aliens inside the egg that came with this gel like slime. One time those toys got banned at our school all because of some kid throwing slime at another kid and all went down hill from there. Side note I love slime for being a sensory aesthetic thing something cute and pretty than gross. As a kid I also had a weird fascination of it I was never grossed out by it fully. So seeing others grossed out it felt weird to me idk its likely the autism . ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

as a kid I got that alien slime on one of my blankets and when it dried, whatever we did it would not come out for years

I was NOT a kid who wanted to get slimed lol. Just watching those kids get slimed on Nickelodeon already made me cringe. It looked like a sensory nightmare, and I never knew how right I was.

I discovered slime because of my sister and mostly slime videos, me and my sister we used to make all of these different slimes. I remember one I had called it "Pinkie Pie" as the slime was pink 🙂

Omg Flubber!!! My childhood slime exposure in the 2000s consisted of Nickelodeon, little balls of slime from the quarter machine (where you get toys and candy), and people making diy borax and glue slime for science fairs. Another phenomenon has been the popularization of interactive experiences like the Museum of Ice Cream, Illusions, and even Sex, and Escape Rooms, etc. I was in Soho, NY one time when I walked by a line of parents and kids in line for a slime experience. I couldn’t believe we made it to that point.

The first one i got was in a little plastic tub specifically for marking fart sounds xD. 4:53 SAME! also the fact you made potions with random house hold items, we would have been best friends!

Back as a kid, there was this slime toy that was marketed as a creepy body horror trinket because it had a fake eyeball in it. It was watery and not sticky but I found it relaxing to play! Fast forward to today, I dont like today's slime because the food slimes look too pretty and I have thid child-like instinct to eat them

I remember in the early 2000s of the green slime with a random body part, like an eyeball or severed hand. Me and my siblings had them and it was so cool for us back then, the slime was pretty firm and you could blow it into a balloon.

Nickelodeon also made another kind of slime in the early 2000s called Gooze, I got some one year for Christmas and it wound up getting all over my mom's vintage table cloth and the next year, she "wrote a note to Santa" saying no more Gooze
