A little surprised this came out this year and not next year when Kerplunk turns…kerplunk…35 years old. (Spotted by Robbie at 7-Eleven.)
If you’re out shopping and see new products, snap a picture of them, and send them in via an email ([email protected]) with where you found them and “Spotted” in the subject line. Also, if you want to send in photos and are wondering if we’ve already covered something or if they’re new, don’t worry about it. Let us worry about it.
I’m 50 and have no idea who Punk Bunny is or what Kerplunk was.
I’m only 32 and also have no idea who or what either of those things are. It’s not just you.
Marvo should’ve explained that Punk Bunny is the coffee brand from Green Day (yes, the band). Kerplunk! is their 1992 album.

Oh, wow. I like Green Day’s later stuff (American Idiot) but in 1992, I was fully engulfed in Top 40, heavy metal and rap hip/hop. Junior-Senior year in HS.
Would have explained how Marvo doesn’t always cater us American Idiots but Stephen hath rendered my joke pointless and I am now a Basket Case.
