      Be sure to follow it up with 2. It’s one of the few instances where a sequel is actually superior to the original.

      I wasn’t as big a fan of the first one but thought the second (where this scene is from) was excellent. I can’t remember if I’ve seen the more recent ones.

      In Toy Story the child, Andy, wrote his name on the bottom of the toy’s shoe signifying that was his toy. The toy, Woody, took that as a point of pride, but in the second movie he ::: gets taken from a garage sale by a toy collector and goes to a restoration specialist who among other things paints over the child’s name. ::: Woody accepts this name removal as final proof that he is no longer loved by Andy and no longer belongs to him and is ready to move on to the next phase of his existence. Since the microblogger is also named Andy, her ex used this image to show the finality of their breakup, and it’s probably somewhat devastating depending on the age of the people involved when Toy Story 2 came out.

      Apparently there’s a superstition stating you can write the name of the person you fell in love with on your shoe, and if it doesn’t wear off it’s reciprocated.

      This sign might be like “okay, so the writing should go off since you don’t love me, Andy, and I’ll do it myself since the fate didn’t already”.

      Kinda like “the love is dead”, and burning bridges.

      TIL, and you might have too.

    This reminds me of my ex gf 😅 not only does she enjoy “kid” shows and movies, but HER NAME IS ANDY TOO. That image would definitely dealt some damage. For us though we broke off on good terms. Right person, wrong time, wrong place :(
