people over 30 should be dead

[Mr Pheer]

According to today's regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were kids in the 40's, 50's, 60's, or even maybe the early 70's probably shouldn't have survived.
Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paint.

We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets, and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets. (Not to mention the risks we took hitchhiking.)

As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.

Riding in the back of a pickup truck on a warm day was always a special treat.

We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle. Horrors!

We ate cupcakes, bread and butter, and drank soda pop with sugar in it, but we were never overweight because we were always outside playing.

We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle, and no one actually died from this.

We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then rode down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the street lights came on.

No one was able to reach us all day. No cell phones. Unthinkable!

We did not have Playstations, Nintendo 64, X-Boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, video tape movies, surround sound, personal cell phones, personal computers, or Internet chat rooms.

We had friends!

We went outside and found them.

We played dodge ball, and sometimes, the ball would really hurt.

We fell out of trees, got cut and broke bones and teeth, and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. They were accidents.

No one was to blame but us. Remember accidents?

We had fights and punched each other and got black and blue and learned to get over it.

We made up games with sticks and tennis balls and ate worms, and although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes, nor did the worms live inside us forever.

We rode bikes or walked to a friend's home and knocked on the door, or rang the bell or just walked in and talked to them.

Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team.

Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment.

Some students weren't as smart as others, so they failed a grade and were held back to repeat the same grade.

Horrors! Tests were not adjusted for any reason. Our actions were our own. Consequences were expected.

The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke a law was unheard of.

They actually sided with the law.

Imagine that!

This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers and problem solvers and inventors, ever.

The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas

We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all. And you're one of them!

Congratulations.


Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors?

Hello Mr. President....

[smack]

yeah unfortunately all the subsequent generations of kids are growing up to be pussies. pretty soon parents are going to be making children wear a helmet even to jack off.

[nwbsd]

and now we smoke

[Gemini]

Amen MrPheer...

But you forgot one that I am going to dedicate to Sarah-Webinc ;-)P

We had to WALK to school!!



5 miles!!!




In the Winter!!




With SKIRTS on (pants on girls?? OMFG)




In 2' of snow!!



With poor soakable leather shoes! No Boots or 200 buck waterproof tennis shoes!!




And the worst part was:









It was freaking UPHILL... BOTH ways!





Only about 2% is not the truth.

[mastamindz]

I drank from the hose today....



It tasted like shit.

[eiht_98]

hehehe...uphill both ways

[SexxxyChat-T]

Im 21 years old now, and for some reason, people in their 40's-50's-60's think that it is somehow our fault that growing up has become the way it has.

Who do you think makes the helmet laws? Who do you think sues the other parents? Who do you think tells their kids not to go play outside all day? Who punishes their kids for drinking from the same bottle as their friends? Who lobbies to make sure all "sticks" have padded ends on them to ensure there are no eye injuries?

When I was a kid, all of this stuff was really coming into existence, and it wasn't me or my friends who told lawmakers that I needed to wear a gay looking helmet if I was going to ride my bike... it was my parents... those 40-50-60 year olds who now spread bullshit like this on the internet giving the impression they were so much tougher and more "independant" growing up.

Get bent.

I guess you arent old enough yet to recognize the sarcasm that is there. Its much like the walking uphill to school in the snow shit that people my age had to hear from thier parents while growing up.

You shouldnt take things on the internet so seriously, it can cause high blood pressure

And maybe you are too old to recognize that every single line of that article is a barb directed at children of the 80's and 90's.

This is more then just an internet issue... I have to deal with this type of shit from my parents, from other family members, older friends and aquaintances, etc. all the time, and I know I'm not alone.

"We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all. And you're one of them! Congratulations."

But you have failed to keep your childrens lives from becoming everything that is mocked in that article... good job!

[Mr Pheer]

Man you're gonna have a heart attack before you turn 22.

And I'm not too old, I'm only 32. You think I didnt have to hear that shit to when I was growing up?

And I moved out on my own when I was 16, while I still knew everything :D

Great post

[Mr Pheer]

Ok, obviously some people cant see the humor behind this. I'm sorry if I offended those that cant see it.

You know, when I was kid, we didnt get upset over shit like this, we just dealt with it.

oops, there I go again

i concur


My hubby and I are always telling our children of how it was when we were growing up...as we yank the nintendo out of their hands and throw them outside to play....now a days they can buy shit with their own money.
I do have a hard time letting my kids out of my site too far... we didnt have as many serial killers or child molesters on the loose as it seems today.

[ytcracker]

my generation is a bunch of dicklickers

i feel bad that i am a part of such weak filth

[m00d]

Great Post!

But you forgot one thing...
Spending hours and hours sitting in a little
wooden box in a tree. Man, the good ole tree house days.
And not some fake ass tree house kids now buy at Lowes, I mean the real deal, rusty exposed nails, loose boards, likely to fall out and snap your neck, tree house.


First place I smoked by the way, and first place I kept my stash of P0rn!
