#26 I probably got knocked in the head a dozen times in elementary and jr high. Never once went to the hospital, just 'walked it off'. Only once did someone walk with me, holding me up, that was the time I got nailed in the head by the football at point blank range and was out cold for, what they tell me, was about 20 minutes. And then there is all the times face planting on the sidewalk and street while doing stupid things on my bicycle.
#48 That sums it all up very well
Oh yeah, we didn't have paintball, we had BBguns, put on 4 or 5 layers of cloths and it's time for war!
I'm right between GenX and Millennial. Growing up analog and learning ditital was extremely helpful. Also the ability to navigate wtihout GPS, problem solve with your peer group without parential interaction, and do nothing by yourself and be content.
I once traded a pog slammer for a butterfly knife. In the hallway between classes.
Liz, Same here, cannot relate fully to gen x or gen y.
My dad used to say "get out and play" Me: "i don't know what to play or where?" Dad: "i don't care, get out. See you at dinner time..." Somehow i always found something to keep me busy/playing. No toys, no mall, just playing outside with my Brother, the neighbors Kids and some sticks

except for #28 and #38. definitely wannabes. One actually cares about trending twitter and the other about locking the front door.

And the bottle rocket fights.
Illegal, but so much fun! I got ahold of mortars when I was 12 and all bets were off.
