I had to drive into Lincoln this afternoon to do some errands. While at Target, I saw that Optimus Prime was looking a little hung over in the garden department.
I helped the poor guy out. (I also sneakily took these pictures while some college kid thought I was insane.)
For the record, I didn’t know that this was Optimus Prime until Lloyd saw the pictures and told me. I thought it might be Spiderman with some kind of thyroid condition.

What a great person you are to help out a friend in need.
Deanne says
I was wondering how you knew it was optimus Prime; I sure didn’t. I wonder if Daniel does.
Brad says
Maybe you didn’t recognize him because he’s more than meets the eye. He’s a robot in disguise.

“I helped the guy out” -- Did you really help him though? Would not helping him be taking him to where he belongs. Optimus Prime in the garden department is similar to me on a treadmill -- I don’t belong there. I want to go to my home -- the couch.
Lauren says
Yeah, but I didn’t know where he belonged. Computers? Menswear? Automotive?
Brad says
Does Target have a machine-based alien life form section?
Lloyd says
Aisle 5
Stephannie says
I TOTALLY knew that this was Optimus Prime, and for the record, he goes in the kids bedding area… It’s not sad that I know that, right???
Lauren says
Not at all. Not at all.
Beth says
Was that couch really $4.99? Because seriously, you should have bought a few of them.
Brady G. says
$254.99

I worry OP was on a covert operation … carefully choosing that couch to camouflage himself in. You blew his cover; you can tell by the look on his face in the 2nd picture he’s not happy about it.
Peggy says
…btw: I assumed Optimus Prime was some type of plant when I read just the 1st few lines. Wow, your Optimus Prime is really blooming this year!
