I am deeply ashamed of all the old GI Joe's that fell victim to firecrackers and my bb gun. Of my entire childhood collection, only Flint, Lady Jaye, and Snowjob survive - and the Baroness that I never took out of the package.
 
I wonder how many Hot Wheels I have buried in my parent's back yard? And I really wish I had taken care of my Flipper lunchbox. :(
 
And all the while good old Europe played with rocks. No, wait, that must've been the time when there was the great Monchichi craze (to the unanointed: monkeys with large faces, designed to appeal to the fairer sex). Until it came out that the fur lit up really quick - not that the boys didn't notice right away...

My mother made me a nice snowman when i was a kid. Then i introduced its face to a huge rock. :(
 
My cousin's mother bought him practically every Star Wars figure/ship/playset they ever offered in the late 70s and early 80s. She even had a replica R2-D2 made for him one Christmas. They used a Safety-Clean barrel, a salad bowl, some 2X4s, and a heck of a lot of white paint and blue electrical tape. It looked pretty cool to a 10 year old.

Somehow he wound up with 2 landspeeders. We painted one black and blew it up with firecrackers. Next was his TIE fighter, then I donated a Cylon Raider. We discovered that Testors cement would burn too and, well, you can imagine where that went.....

You asked for it, bubba.


Monchichi Monchichi
oh so soft and cuddly
with your thumb in your mouth you're really sweet
love to wiggle those little feet
la la la
la la la
happy happy Monchichi

(child in background screaming "I LOVE YOU MONCHICHI!")

Monchichi, monchichi,
oh so soft and cuddly,
with their thumb in their mouth they're really neat,
fun to wiggle their little feet!
la la la
la la la

happy happy Monchichi



... and to recover from that, something remotely related, from the Bloodhound Gang: Why is everbody always pickin' on me?

The morn' that I was born my old man beat up the doctor
He clocked the doctor cause the doctor said I looked like Chewbacca
The doctor said sir you're misled sir which infers you mistook me
I did not mean your lovely wife was shackin' up with a wookie
What I mean is Wolverine is less hairy than your son
He's looks like Chewie Baba Booey Baba Booey and Hong Kong Phooey all in one
To put it mild your new-born child's completely nutty fu-fu lookin'
I'd shove him back into the oven until he is done cookin'
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause my fifteen year-old cousin has less acne
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Ain't brushed them teeth since 1983
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause you got the grooming habits of a chimpanzee
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause you're white but you got a nose like Bill Cosby
Why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Always pickin' and rippin' apart poor ol' Jimmy Pop Ali
I got a schnoz like the 'Cos' but there's a lot more wrong with you
So back me up Bill yea and you're ugly too
So what if I brush my teeth with a piece of cheddar cheese
Or where a fish net shirt by Chams with my Sergio Valenti jeans
And my mirror never lies but it always verifies
I got more cheese and pepperoni than a homemade pizza pie
You compare me to a Monchichi but I don't understand
Why I'm scorned like I'm deformed like the Elephant Man
And yea I took my mom to the prom but hey she asked me first
But at least this time I didn't find my date in the back of a hearse
About as popular with the girls with Englebert Humperdink
And that might be 'cause everybody calls me Shrinky Dink
I know I'm known as Polaroid I'm not a total retard
It's cause I'm done in sixty seconds and you'll still want it enlarged
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause ya wore velour flares until the late Eighties
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause you run like a girl and sit down to pee
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause your only school chum was the lunch lady
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
You took your mom to the prom but still got lucky
Like that episode where Gilligan gets sick of being teased
And he breaks into the Professor's lab and makes some LSD
Peaks freaks and eats the Skipper's brains then beats Ginger with coconuts
As Mr. Howell and Lovey burn alive inside their grass hut
Oh he'll kill again that Gilligan they he should of let him be
And like a postal clerk I'll go beserk if you don't stop teasing me
See the trick is only pick on those that can't do you no harm
Like the drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?

But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause your only school chum was the lunch lady
But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
Cause no one likes you monkey boy.


I guess that's enuff poetry for the day...
 
Okay, apologies all around, especially to LeHah (although it won't help much, I guess).

To make things worse, another story:
Remember those SW-Episode1 racers you could load up with a booster pack and fly in big circles around you on a long piece of string? Actually, two of my colleagues got one and tried it on a Friday afternoon in the company parking lot, ending up with one of them getting knocked in the chest by the thing, and scratching their rental car on the second attempt. Not enough of that - later that week, one of the guys got busted for carrying explosives at the airport because he had one of the racers plus boosters in his suitcase.
 
When my friend was a kid, he had one of those lego "treasure hunt" sets.(Think it was a big mountain or something, Anyway, he filled the damn thing with firecrackers and put in a litle lego guy with the words: "I'll sacrifice myself so you can have the treasure". Then he ignited the firecrackers.

He blew up a real living squirrel with firecrackers as well. :(
 
People like that grow up to be serial killers and are not really people at all. I hope he's somewhere in Norway.
