We'll have plenty of caltrops.

What happens if we use laughing gas?
Thomas Watson
Can we hold hands with cute girls to drive them off?
Daniel Miller
Start punching them with oven mitts.

So should cards work by just throwing them or should we go full animu and have people swinging around giant cards Luxord style?
Christian Collins
If we're going to go full anime with yu-gi-oh, why wouldn't we go anime in the same way the actual yu-gi-oh anime does it?
Chase Foster
So we're going to fuck them up with cards on motorcycles then send them straight to the shadow realm?
Luis Diaz
Better to bake starshaped cookies for the ninja wannabes to throw at them!
Easton Ward
So we're crushing two birds with one stone by creating both a weapon AND a healing snack! Now we just need some ginger bread armies.

>These things feed upon negative emotions and energies. Since traditional weapons have so much negativity associated with them they do literally no damage. Clearly, you've never been to /k/. That said, I was always more of a reader than a run around playing person. Maybe I could smack the mothers with one of my books.
Thinking it over, couldn't one kill them with food too? Because I really, really like the idea of bashing a gribbly gribbly monster with the Salsa I've made with my dad.

Adam Johnson
You'd generate positive energy if you geld hands with a girl, but the overwhelming amount of revulsion from the girl would generate more negative energy.

Dylan Hernandez
My penis has brought me more pleasure than any material item, so I'd probably just rape them.
Jace Hill
I've got a foam Excalibur. Yes, the Type-Moon one. Y'think that'd work? If not, old transparent NERF gun, baseball bat, plastic Mjolnir, plastic Master Sword. ONE of these has gotta work.
Hudson Mitchell
What if I am some punk-ass ghetto kid whose favorite toy is a gun?
Jose Morales
Literally the only thing I feel nostalgia for. I practiced for hours lining up shots, from different elevations, different angles, different types of targets. The other kids would have me take their parts and build them better hybrids - out of the dozen or so people playing with B-Daman, I was considered the king.

Why would the tools that allowed humanity to survive in its darkest hour NOT become symbols of hope, of survival, of the chance at a future?
Cooper Rodriguez
Because it's not hope that would destroy a great old one. Humans always have hope. That's why they would fight at all. Why a person would run from a threat that is devouring the entire world. A shogoth or some such beastie would love hope. It would keep everyone from committing mass suicide and make sure there are always snacks around. Toys don't give children hope. They give them happiness and imagination. They're a symbol of innocence. Using a weapon in war for primal survival is the antithesis of innocence. The very act of using a toy as a weapon would strip away what makes it powerful in the first place.
Jackson Hill
Upon hearing of the existence and weakness of these creatures, I'll adopt the following plan. Every night, I will beat off to the idea of lovecraftian horrors. I will not look at porn or real women during these times, all for the sake of humanity. Eventually, I will have conditioned myself to get aroused by the eldritch abominations. Then, when I see such a creature, I can unzip my pants and wield my weapon of hope. For a future worth living.
Cooper Fisher
By that logic, it's unwinnable, as the very act of fighting back leads to death, and rolling over to die has the same effect.
Aaron Long
>implying you'd have to condition yourself to such a thing
Am I the only one who faps to shoggoths at least once a week?
Robert Rogers
That's the horror of it. Humanity dies either way and the only way to destroy the horrors would be to destroy the only thing sustaining them, ourselves.

Austin Lewis
The OP said POSITIVE energy, not just innocence and childlike wonder. This means that even religious symbols and hope should work just as well as happiness. It would work, but keep in mind regular toys and whatever else being used because of it's positive energy will be allot more silent.
Carter Lee
Considering the fact we have people running around with cookie throwing stars, yes. Then again if that's too goofy it can also substitute for healing items.
