The track record breaking just does not stop ! As we channelize into the last calendar week of October and Recruit Program month 2 , rent ’s take a look back at the week that was on Toybox .
The past week on Toybox has been a somewhat substantial one over all , with each sidereal day pulling in some seemly numbers – but it was catapulted to full - on crazy on Monday , by a post that was n’t even new to the site . The fine folks at r / scientific discipline posted a link back to the story aboutPortal 2 being good for your brainI write at the kickoff of the month , and the power of being on one of the biggest social net on the web entail that the berth did n’t just surpass Palpatine ’s Name as the most - read clause on Toybox , but systematically flail it , pulling in 303,733 thought as of writing . Palpatine ’s Name itself was already over 100,000 view ahead of the late title bearer , but Portal 2 and Neuroplasticity well passed it by almost 70,000 thought . When I protrude out on Toybox , I scantily imagine the site would pull that many view in three months , let alone on a individual post . The vast influx of readers meant that for this workweek the average US monthly people add skyrockted to an amazing 830k as of yesterday . This average still include a solid last week of September that is propping up a shivering October begin for the site , so I fully look the numeral to go down by October ’s end , but for now , Jesus Christ , give thanks you all so much for your awe-inspiring patronage .
But it was n’t just honest-to-goodness Post that had people talking this week – we look at some of the priciest toy in history , ruminate the benefits of Adaptations drift off the beaten path , and basked in the beauty of Age of Ultron ’s hulkbuster and some examples from the comedian that were just as coolheaded . popping ! Vinyl finally break down my self-possession with some lovely Warcraft delicacy , splendiferous artists picture off their take on Batman , Big Hero 6 and ‘ aphrodisiacal ’ pattern for Lord of the Rings Halloween outfits , and we all had our brain blown by Brows Held High ’s insightful look at Inception and Filmic Surrealism . Here ’s the links to the week in all thing Pop Culture .
