My NES and SNES were stolen a little while after we got the SNES.

Should have went with a SEGA!

Thunderbirds!

The Thunderbirds island!

my parents were very responsible so i usually got very durable and educative wooden toys. i still have a great wooden dollhouse, still looks gorgeous and it's really hard to break...

the girl next door had over a hundred barbies but thay kind of annoyed me, i never thought they were pretty enough.

I think that's your basic problem.

I had cleats on my shoes for a few days in 6th grade. They were actually furniture leg staples, big ones. This friend and I had this bright idea they were cool, like hoodlum cool, and we click-clacked around school for a few days before the teacher found out and made us remove them.

This same friend made me collect puff balls (fungus seed pouches) one time this one fall, and then sit in class and raise tiny little "smoke signals" using these things from our desk. We did that for a day or two before we were caught.

rampant materialism is the root of the world's problems today.

back in my day, we had cardboard boxes, sticks and sharp rocks. if we were lucky, there was an occasional dead animal carcass to use them on.

That's two episodes...I'm telling you now you're going to have to put some effort into this if you want this to rival The Wonder Years.

Fucking rich kid.

anyone else used to turn old shoe boxes into tanks and forts for their GI Joes?

My son drive me crazy with that shit. He uses styrofoam packing to make snow it is so messy.

I did that too! My bro and I would get styrofoam packing from anything and make forts,. and crumble it up to make snow. I bet my mom's carpet still has bits o styrofoam from that! ha!

I bet you did it right after she vacumed the poor woman

female neighbors that liked to play "trip to the gynecologist".
