If you're reading this, chances are you found the little QR code in your package after purchasing merchandise from yours truly. Or, you didn't get a QR code and instead got the original care guide that was poorly laminated together with packing tape because I wanted to be extra. If on the not-so-rare chance you haven't bought a Goober or anything Goober-esque from Fourthwall, you're still more than welcome to read up on how to care for one through this neat little QnA page that I made. Good, responsible Goober caretakers should be fully informed before they make the choice of adopting a hand-crafted, one of a kind skrunkly little grumblo and giving them a new home.
But, since the "franchise" is growing slowly with every new iteration of the Goobers, I figured that separating them into actual categories based on what they are would be a hell of a lot easier than just info-shitting all of the care guides onto a steaming hot plate and serving it to you that way. Portion control is important down here, and we strive to serve authentic and janky content, even if it's not super polished and pretty.
With that said, if you're too lazy to scroll down and look at all of the nerdy information relating to the specifics on each item, I left a little QnA that I whipped up based on the main questions that I get. All you have to do is press the "View the QnA" button and it'll automatically hide this note in order to save up on page space.
1. What's everything made out of?
A: Either Red Heart Super Saver yarn, generic brand acrylic yarn from Wal-Mart, PETG printed buttons/accessories, and PolyFil.
2. How long does it take to make everything?
A: It depends on what you exactly bought. Please refer to the separate windows below for specifics on everything, I can't read your mind, man.
3. What's the difference between a normal Goober and a C.U.M.my Bear?
A: Normal Goobers come in different custom color variations while C.U.M.my Bears are only limited to either Denny Blue or Denny Pink variants. But hey, you get a fun little cowboy hat and a scarf with each C.U.M.my Bear and you're supporting Pastor Phil's mission to canonize the city living in his colon as a holy relic.
For Small Stains:
Spot treat with cold water and your preferred bleach-free detergent as necessary. Allow to air dry or dry on low heat.
For Larger Stains:
Machine wash in a mesh bag or pillow case in cold water on the most delicate setting using cold water with preferred bleach-free detergent. Avoid using hot water to prevent the acrylic yarn from stretching and deforming.
Optionally, mixing a few tablespoons of hair conditioner into lukewarm water and soaking for 30 minutes before rinsing and drying can act as fabric softener and helps combat irritation for sensitive skin.
Once washed, dry on the lowest heat setting in order to avoid ruining your appliances. Do not exceed 170°F (76.6°C) otherwise you will run into the risk of the 3D printed accessories warping and melting.
I don't have enough information just yet to finish this part, but stay tuned for updates. In the meantime you can watch the commercial that I've conveniently embedded down below.
