Gee, I remember back in the day when all we had were regular rubber bands that were shaped like ovals, circles, truncated rectangles, and occasionally a twig and berries (if you thought you were clever and could hold them properly in two hands). And instead of wearing them, we'd put one end on our index finger, wrap it around our hand, and hold the other end with our ring finger, aim at each others' eyes, and let go! Now that was the pinnacle of fun right there. This "wearing" thing is for passive weenies. Anything that doesn't draw blood or come at you at high speeds wasn't worth having, no sirree, no way no how, not in THOSE days.

Pogs are going to be cool again?
One can only hope.
I still have my pogs in their airtight, vacuum sealed tubes and slammers at the ready for the inevitable revival of the ultimate game that "totally isn't gambling" (Timmy G, 14) and "Has like, cool pictures and [stuff], and you can trade them and some are gross" (Aaron F, 15). When will this glorious day come?
Actually, I really do still have all my pogs. I have a full set of... I think they were called "Slugs," which were disgusting lenticular prints that often frequented gross creatures or an eyeball that frequently got dismembered in unpleasant ways. I wonder if that collection is worth money, you don't see that kind of printing done much these days.
EDIT: Apparently, it's worth 15 dollars.
