They've started a gofundme for one billion dollars to try and save toys r us.

I hope I live to age 94.

Find. Dr. Lazarus.

John KMart passed away last week as well.

If only they could have waited, yet he had to see his company die.

I am not the sentimental type, but I feel this man died of a broken heart. Or old age. Either way he ded and so is the company he founded.
Thunderbeargamer
Died of a broken heart.
3dartwork
Wait...the day liquidation was to start the founder dies? Now I see why it was posponed until tomorrow. Still, sucked I drove all for not

Toys R us closing makes me feel like my childhood died a little too
Poofybutt
If you want to know what happened just watch The Company Mans video on it. It's interestimg but very sad. :/ https://youtu.be/4JYUo9WKkao

jeff bezos killed toys r us
aldodds
31,000 people are losing their jobs, but the saddest news is a 94 year old man dying.
ComeOnManYouHadOneJobToDo
Does anyone even remember Lazarus retails stores? They were similar to Penny’s.
ShinksAvoHazaar
"I don't want to grow up.".........Laza'R'US......Toys "R'US". Business shuts down. Founder "dies" shortly after..................right.....
Samja192
Just after being told his lifes work was no longer relevant.. rough
lenomdeplume
My son used to get really excited about shopping at “Toys For Us”. He was a cute little guy!
BallsinWhoresBigMan
His chain of stores died in 2014.
58d8fee2
Yeah, but now they're liquidating, no longer trying to restructure and revive under bankruptcy protection.
HerMajestysSecretButthole
Poor guy probably had a heart attack when they announced.
MechaMaster20
Im sad their closing but I can't wait for the going out of business sale. Gonna get me a few transformers at discount prices
araffs
Guess Toy R Us will collapse over his dead body
WardSharlow
Laz Я Us.
heinzb
That was my first thought!
WardSharlow
Great minds think alike. And so do ours, apparently.
Sagerider
Sort of like an old James Stewart movie with a sad ending, like Santa Claus died in the end. :(

Its a bit sad. He gets to watch his life creation die hard before dying himself.
doubleormuffin
His horcrux was destroyed
Snooj
Maybe there's a connection. Charles Schultz died the day before his final Peanuts goodbye strip was published.
IceWeaselX
He didn't want his baby to die before he did. Nobody except the Queen should outlive their kids.
opwankenop
I know this is a sad topic but!
tomyironmane
... sucks. A store my parents were too cheap to even walk into (unless it was someone else's kid's birthday party) went under.
tomyironmane
Can't say I'm that emotionally involved with it. I imagine it feels like what the folks at all the places they ran out of business felt like
tomyironmane
Ah well, circle of life. Sell high, pay low, and don't move with the times, and you're gonna be like the dinosaurs.
PepperoniPizzaSlice
So thats what we do now? Just repeat the same exact comments we see on the viral memes and front page? Try being original for once you cuck.
tomyironmane
What comment was I repeating, jizz-monkey? That's how it was, you spoiled little witless fartfucker.
BillNyeTheNaziSpy
Maybe that's what killed him.
marsgoose
Or the fact he was 94
gakio12
I think being 94 is what killed him.
MiniYams
I think what they mean is that, even moreso at 94, something as basic as heartbreak can do it. My poppop went weeks after my grandmother.
jogncdPrince
Maybe you killed him

¡DUN DUNN DUUUUUNNNNNN!

Cardio myopathy i believe it's called. Death by heartache
Relicanth
Cardiomyopathy and the word roots translate to heart muscle disease. Actually, that is an enlarged/rigid heart. Source NIH (won't fit here)

They aren't fooling around with these liquidations. Everything must go!

I like you.

He coulda just moved to Canada. Canadian toys r us aren’t closing.
darkhalfbreed
The toys R us by me isn't having a Liquidation sale, i wanted to get games on the cheap and everythibg was normal priced
compulsivebookhoarder
I heard that there's a possible buyer so they're holding off on liquidation for now.
JohnTayloree
Company is still in court about liquidation and when to start sales, at least the one here. Source: I work there
dismemberedtoddler
Liquidation started today.
dismemberedtoddler
And you will be able to buy everything. Need shelves? Go buy the shelves.
exesandohs
When did you go? Apparently liquidation sales just started today and % will increase as weeks go on in an effort to get rid of everything :)
NewPhoneWhoDissss
How long is this sale going for?
JohnTayloree
Till the doors close as far as I'm aware.
ILikeToMakeBelieveICanSpeakForeignLanguages
They could have really done so much more with the market..they should have sponsored national Lego championships or something like that..
Atemcyph
My local toys r us held a cede of a yugioh championship, was a blast
Aaronb1138
Lego wasn't going to license with opening their own stores.... And Amazon fucked all retail while playing dirty.
itsybitsyspider
Or maybe Toys "R" Us shouldn't have sold shitty product at high prices.
12rt2345g342563
More like established companies failed to innovate and sat their pretending the internet was a fad.
ILikeToMakeBelieveICanSpeakForeignLanguages
Exactly, Amazon sold all thier distributing rights to Amazon in the beginning...big big mistake
