In my day...... - How old are you?

[Galt]

Do they still have big wheels? They were the fucking coolest thing. Oh my God, I am so wet just thinking of that thing. I had so much fun dammit.

Did anyone else also have pencil fights? Where, with #2 pencil you would flick the pencil against someone else's and try and break their as they held it tight between their two hands?

Big wheels were kick ass!

Flying down the street, then locking up the pedals and doing a power slide. We used to have contests to see who could slide the farthest. But after awhile, the plastic wheels would wear down on that one side, and when you rode them, it was lumpy and had a flat spot in the wheels. :roflmao:

I remember when water guns held four ounces of water that squirt 5 feet when you pulled a trigger.

I remember really cool things coming in a cereal box.

Did we discuss this already like 2 weeks ago? I think Grandpa OAS started the topic. In the end, the answer was the same:

Don't know how I missed it. I didn't post in it, but I must have seen it, and that's what made me think of this. Oh well, the point is the same, Grumpy sucks.

its all about the spork fights these days. you take a spork, bend the end and snap it into your opponents spork, and who ever broke the others spork completely off was the winner. nothing like getting that good spork that just never broke and beating 5 people in a row with it.

spit ball fights........
In the sixth grade everyone made spit ball guns.
take the tube from a bic pen..(tape over the little pin hole if it had one.
put one spit ball in the front and one in the back. then ram the one in the front forward with a wire from a hanger. It created a hell of a lot of air pressure which would send the spit ball in the front flying, WITH a satisfying POP.

[Sloatsburgh]

How about the retractable pens: Take the spring out of the tip end, place it between the two plastic pieces that made up the button/click mechanism, and instant deadly projectile. Bonuse points if you could shoot out the ink tube/pen section.

Real Heavy Metal

like iron or something?

big wheels rocked, unless you were racing down the hill and slid off the side going around the corner, that always hurt like hell

[OAS]

I remember seeing an interview with Tennesee Ernie Ford saying that the Beatles were just a fad that would go away as quick as it came. Sad isn't it?

[virgingrrl]

old old old...you are all old. i am a baby and don't remember any of these things:-)

[barch97]

...when NBC, CBS, and ABC were the only networks

Remember watching the same channel all night? No remote... and, no one wanted to get up and turn the dial. I'd actually watch commercials. Unbelievable...
