Premo! Sculpey

First to recommend

Description

Ahhh Sculpey such fine fine memories with you. I was one crafty bastard when I was a kid and boy could I make a Sculpey animal. One evening my brother and I were making animals... he made a turtle I made a moose. Well, he pissed me off so I smashed his turtle. I have never seen someone cry so hard over clay so naturally my parents taught me a lesson called paybacks a bitch and they smashed my moose. That was one good looking moose too.

Commercial All-Steel Standard Folding Chair

First to recommend

Description

Remember the heavy metal folding chairs from the 1980's? I sure do- I have been folded into them during an innocent game of musical chairs. Not pretty, especially when you are 8 yrs old.

Rubik's Cube

8 people recommended this item

Description

This is not the Rubik's Cube from my childhood, it was actually a Christmas themed cube...but the toy is traumatic all the same. My brother and I are no geniuses when it came to this toy so we of course did what any childhood idiot would do-- ripped the damn stickers off and put them back on, ran up to my parents to show them how smart their children were. It worked once but taking off the stickers again and again eventually ruined the cube. My parents were not pleased.

Mr Sketch Assorted Scent Markers

First to recommend

Description

Eck, where do I begin on this one.

It was my first year of kindergarten (yes my first...shut up) and I colored in a kids face in a coloring book purple- I can color it however I like--zip it! Any way the ridicule that came from the other children was just horrible. Did you know I was accused of eating butter, what kind of insult is that anyhow?

I never look at butter the same way now. Kids can be so cruel.

Hellmann's | Real Mayonnaise

First to recommend

Description

Mayonnaise is a very traumatic product for me... not only is it fattening but my own mother used to slather the white stuff into my hair as a child in order to tame my wild hair. She believed it was a conditioning agent- when really the only thing it did was cause me to smell like a sandwich.

If only they made the ouchless version when I was a child. The hair elastics of my childhood had that big hunk of metal in the middle and have metallic threads woven through- I have to cut a many a hair elastic out of my childhood hair.
