Kind of a fun game

[colorider]

Playground games such as smear the queer and red rover. Seems those are banned from the schoolyards now.

Telephone "calling cards" for long distance calls. I had one for years when I was in the military, now I think hardly anyone remembers them since everyone has a cell phone.

I still remember the number on my Sprint FON card...


Timing lights, dwell meters, and for the old OLD school bike mechanics, a "buzz box". I still have and use all 3...

- Blowing air into a Nintendo cartridge to get it to work.
- When you bought a video game, you got the whole thing, no microtransactions or add-ons.
- Video games that were difficult and didn't handhold the player through the whole thing.

The cops always made US dump it out...truly traumatic, watching 10 hard earned dollars pour down a storm drain...

You got caught. ;-)

The "Service Merchandise" catalog. I used to love to look through that.

Making a collect call from a payphone, but instead of saying your name, saying "come pick me up" so your parents didn't have to accept the call and get charged.

I don't remember being able to make a voice recording on a collect call. It was operator assisted and my folks would decline to pay for the call. It didn't matter, because that was the signal that I was ready to be picked up.

Anybody else remember clackers?

Playground games such as smear the queer and red rover.

I got clotheslined so bad one time playing red rover. The line rose their arms and caught me in the throat and took me off my feet. I thought I was going to die.

Ah, the good old days.
