I always wonder how poo poo like this catches on. I remember this from well before most people having the internet but it seems like a common touchstone for everyone at around the same time. I don't remember television commercials for this or anything. I don't even remember them having a name. Unperson_47 has a new favorite as of 12:10 on May 24, 2020 |

I'd rather kids learn a harmless craft from their mom that you can teach your friends rather than, say, racism. Unless you work racism into your scoubidou. That's no good.

I can't look at the pod racer onscreen as anything but 2 human legs, splayed out, joined by a chain at the ankles.

minato posted:didn't someone here have a story about how a cop handed around 2 joints to a classroom so everyone knew what they looked like, and made it very clear that if he didn't get them back there'd be hell to pay. When he got them back there were 3. This sounds like a ploy the D.A.R.E. cop would pull at every school just to make parents and the school go in an anti-drug panic.

 Whenever I see this, I can't help but think about skipping pep rallies and lunch to play emulators on the school computers. I used to think the mouse cursor in Nesticle was a dick (a dismembered member) way back when. Unperson_47 has a new favorite as of 07:15 on Jul 11, 2022 |

mactheknife posted:when i was like 12 years old george lowe was on a radio show my mom used to listen to, in character, taking calls. i called in and they put me on because i was a kid and i just poo poo myself and weakly tried to repeat a bit from the show with him. massive, massive regret that i will die upset about. Haha, you just unlocked a memory I had of my dad and I calling Art Bell's Coast to Coast AM radio show in the late 90s or early 2000s. When we got on live during an open lines night, we just froze up and said something really stupid about bigfoot. We also both kept calling him his full name of "Art Bell" every time we said something to him. It was awkward as hell. Our recording still lives on as it's all archived on the website. It was when I had a subscription to it 12 years ago or so and somehow managed to find it, anyway. Unperson_47 has a new favorite as of 23:57 on Aug 23, 2022 |

DrBouvenstein posted:Remember the pencils that were a series of just tips on a tube, and when it went too dull, you'll pull it out, and then slide it back into the top of the pencil to "load" the next tip? I was thinking of these just the other day trying to tell someone about them but I couldn't think of a good name to call them. "Stackable" for some reason did not enter my head. I kept calling them conveyor pencils.

Those Zebra mechanical pencils with the microscopic erasers were hot trash. The antitheses of those were the standalone Pentel click erasers. Love those. I would post pics but i can't on imgur on mobile for some reason Unperson_47 has a new favorite as of 11:44 on Apr 11, 2023 |

I remember going to the store trying to find "Jello Jigglers" and never seeing anything but regular Jello. I didn't realize much later that it wasn't a separate product and just a firmer set Jello that you make by using less water. I can't stand goopy Jello so I had just always made it like that. The Jiggler was always with me as it turns out.

I had a similar board game called The Grape Escape where you used molds to make little grape dudes out of play-doh and squished them in traps. Much like Mouse Trap, I never played the actual game.

Yeah I loved MadTV back in the day but it's aged absolutely dreadfully and was not even good then and I was just easily amused. There's a collection of decades of MAD magazine on DVD I got from a Software, Etc that I load up and look through an issue or 2 every so often. It's also available on archive.org if anyone is interested.

Ghost Cactus posted:I had this! My mother was so disgusted that someone had given it to me that I was only permitted to use it in the basement. I also wasn’t allowed candy so I mostly just ate the powders, like a little gremlin, in the basement. The kit got so mouldy down there that I think I had to throw it all out after like a month.  I had one of these from Radioshack and loving loved it. A few years ago I wanted to buy one as a gift for a cousin's young'n and found out that they are not made anymore. I still believe that these are one of the loving coolest and most educational toys of all time. v-- I'll have to remember this for upcoming Christmas.

Are book covers even still a thing? I remember kids collecting and trading them when I was in school. I only ever had these really plain blue and white (or maybe it was black and white) ones or some that were brown paper bag type material.
