i miss browsing flipnote hatena for hours on my dsi :(
i still have tons of flipnotes saved that i downloaded from hatena, quite incredible what people were able to do despite having a color palette of like 3 not including white and only being able to use 2 at the same time lol. i think its a good example of limitation inspiring creativity and my admiration for that kind of stuff is why im pretty into old games and computers and stuff despite being born in the 21st century
when i lived in the northeast coast area; you literally could not find dippindots anywhere but certain concessions in DC (only during the summer)
but surprisingly they are still extremely popular in the southeast... i've seen them all year round in FL, SC, NC and GA
almost all circle K's in GA have freezers dedicated to them and they're pretty well full except when they run out. they have all of the flavors as well, my favorite is the banana split
one thing i cant seem to find as often down here is gumball popsicles though
as a northeasterner my whole life i do remember going several times to a mall (now demolished lmao) and some other places and getting dippin dots. love that stuff, theres a near-ish cumberland farms that still sells them and theres some grocers with knockoff ones that i have occasionally
