    There are such things as brick separators?! Why hasn’t anyone told me, my fingernails could have been spared such anguish.

      They’ve put them in every full set I’ve received the past several years. So I have a bunch of them now.

        I remember one of my elementary school teachers back in the 90s having a few, but even as a kid who got a lot of Lego sets I somehow never got one of my own

        Until a couple of years ago, I’m now a grown ass adult, and my wife and I have been on a bit of a Lego kit, and just about every set we get seems to have one now.

        So somewhere along the line Lego seems to have pivoted towards including more brick separators. I’m certainly not angry about that, but I definitely get how it could seem to some people that they’re a mysterious new invention.

          Basically my childhood, yup. But then again, the type of kits they let us use as kids seem to be more quantity than quality. Or maybe I was just poor, haha.
