Reasons I Miss Childhood

I just miss playing with toys. :crying:

Me too. :( I remember when I had so many wrestler toys and I would download all their songs and play them as they came down my plastic ramp to fight each other. Better days. :(

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hxuezdjj7cE, this I'll have you know rocked all kinds of soxorz.

And Wizadora was another one I loved.

And the wrestling figures...god I was obsessed with them. I had this awesome Nitro ring, with light fixtures and staging at the top. I seem to remember "storylines" I had including Sting running over Kane with a motorbike, a mammoth DDP/Rock feud (that ended, I seem to remember, with Rock landing a Rock Bottom through the staging and in to the ring)...such good, good times.

I didn't have wrestling figures, but I did the next best thing I could. I would use GI Joes. I even made title belts out of the silver and gold foil from Hershey's Kisses.

AND LEGOS!!!!

As far as TV....

Playing with toys was awesome. I used to while away many a lazy Saturday afternoon playing with my GI Joes and pitting them against whatever else was in my toy box.

There is hope guys, when you have kids. I have spent hours playing cars, army wars, and legos with my son. Now that he is grown, I do this with my godchildren. I have a landry basket in the hall closet full of soap bubbles, (some in my purse too, because they are just fun)water guns (keep two in my car just in case), action figures, matchbox cars, colors and coloring books, ball and jaxs and marbles. Also I have loads of board games. Sometimes I get toys out just because.

What I love to do is get out my Pez collection and have Pez gang wars. The Pooh Clan vs DC Superheroes! I really should film this and put this on youtube. :shifty:

Animals Of Farthing Wood. :wub:

My brothers girlfriend has all the series on knockoff DVD, which is partly why I love her. :shifty: One night when I was down there, the brother and I watched the entire first series, and even though I hadn't seen it in like 15 year or something, I was sitting there, absolutely smashed, quoting along to pretty much the entire thing.

Weasel is fucking brilliant..."What else are you going to call it...ALICE?!"...and the one where she gets drunk...fucking brilliant program. Dark as hell too.

Theme tunes back in the day were epic...a couple of my favourites;

TUGS (Most epic themetune of anything ever)

Farthing Wood

Henry's Cat (I can't find a version of the theme with lyrics...but the one that goes "If you know someone who knows what he knows, then you must no Henry's Cat!"...now the episode with the "FABULOUS FLYING CARROT!!" was epic television)

The Flumps

FUCK ME!!! BUTTON MOON!!!

Hahahahahahaa....:wub:

Dogtanian & THe Muskahounds

WILLY FOG!!!!!! (The start of the theme..."FOG!" sounding suspiciously like "Fuck" cracks me up...the dear in regalia, called "Brigadeer" was brilliant too)

Anyone else remember Barney the dog? Who had a mouse that lived in his hair, and they kept trying to get rich/famous and stuff...can't find a youtube video for it. :(

Power Rangers is still being made. They're on way too many different versions. However, Tommy wasn't my favorite. I always kinda' liked Billy. Everybody except for him and Tommy leave, at least until everybody on the original Ranger team got replaced. Even when JDF came back for Dino Thunder, I preferred the guy who played the Blue Ranger in that series.

*Shrug* I miss Eureka's Castle and Animaniacs...
