things you still do from time to time

[steampunk42]

basically what are things you do now that you still did as a kid and still get entertainment from. for example i still play day-long sessions of "the floor is lava" in my college dorm room when i know nobody can see me. why? because it makes me feel nostalgic...and it give me a chance for creative thinking.

I still try to avoid stepping on cracks.

Now that I'm an adult I can buy all the huge sidewalk chalks I want. And I do use them.

 

[steampunk42]

also...i secretly love playing with army men...twice my roomate at college came home to discover id turned the floor and some of the table tops into a giant war-zone...good times

Really, I have never thought of this as a kid thing, but as some do: I still watch 2D animated films. The reason I list this is because many of these are or were aimed at children but I still find them enjoyable. However, some people will just never understand the genius of Don Bluth.

This. It's like an instinct now, I just have to look where I'm stepping whenever cracks are in the vicinity. And my mother's back is in pristine condition as a result.

This. I refused to let my mom throw away or give away any of my action figures and army men. I turn my entire room into a battlefield every now and again, just for the fun of it. It's more entertaining than most of the video games that are out these days, AND you can make the storyline go where YOU want it to!

Build forts with pillows and blankets and stuff. My friends and I built one in the backyard that was multi-roomed. It was awesome.

I still try to avoid stepping on cracks.

Oh, man! This! SO this!!
I've gotten so good at not stepping on the breaks between concrete sidewalk slabs I don't even have to think about it, or even look, anymore. Then, I'll just be walking down the street and- "OSHIT THAT ONE IS CRACKED NOOOOOOO!!"

I still bring out my old LEGOs from time to time.
I also still pretend everyday household objects -like a TV remote, game controller, or a headset- is some kind of space ship and spend hours having make-believe space battles on my bedroom floor.

And, of course, I still watch cartoons and play video games.

HOW DARE THEY! DON BLUTH IS A GOD TO ME!!

If I had army men I would do the same thing but I just use whatever figures I can find lying around.
Also still play board games and stuff by myself (chess,checkers,etc)

 

[Hamish Durie]

i still avoid stepping cracks now and forever
and i still occasionally play yellow on my GBC

 

[Dr Jones]

Masturbate... (jk u guyse!)

 

[Giest4life]

If I see a tiled floor and if no one is watching, I try to make sure my foot steps exactly within the boundaries of one tile. It's pretty fun and can be very challenging with the smaller ones.

 

[shadowslayer81]

I breath in step (two in, two out).
I also make sure not to step on... how to explain it... imagine if every corner there are three lasers shooting out, two in the direction that the wall was going, and one between that. The lasers also cancel each other out when they hit one another.

 

[Ikaruga33]

Holy shit I so want army men now

 

[LobsterFeng]

Does anybody else still jump on their trampoline?

 

[Tartarga]

Sometimes when no one is looking i'll find a wheel shaped object and pretend i'm a race car driver. I'll maker all the sound effects and everything.

 

[Wrath 228]

Holy shit I so want army men now

Come to my house! I need an enemy General to fight!

 

[DasDestroyer]

Avoiding stepping on cracks, and lego. That shit is awesome.
