The kids yearn for the mines
Is that why they play Minecraft?
Always has been
Child labour in Frostpunk intensifies
These things were NEVER fucking left open at the park near me. Could wait there the entire day and the same fucking kid would be using it the entire time, completely oblivious to your attempts to get him to move.
I swear, I probably only touched the thing once when i was a child. I came back with my daughter a few years ago and nobody was giving it a second glance. Used my kid as an excuse to finally get to play with the thing...
Hahaha you and I had the same experience. Always watching, never actually getting a chance to use because of some kid hogging it the whole time you were there.
These were the shit growing up
They still are
I did not use one, but now I'm jealous
Oh, it was so much fucking fun. More fun than it looks, which is saying something. Not to make you more jealous lol
Kids in my generation:
“Mom, can I have my GameBoy back?”
A girl in my class: proud owner of a PS1, plays Spyro and Medievil constantly.
Same girl as an adult: "I don't even knew what a video game was, I played outside."
I remember opening parts of the blinds so the street lights would brighten my Gameboys display for some quality past bedtime gaming
That's a really nice memory, thanks for sharing
Are we becoming boomer now? I certainly feel like it
Smaller kids still love playgrounds, even if they also want/love screentime. Heck, it is not infrequent there are a group of younger teenagers at the playgrounds we frequent.
Boomers without any entitlements are just loosers
Best fucking toy out there. Me and my friends used to throw pennies into the sand and bury them, and the kid on the machine would dig them up.
Core memory resurfaced from the playground near my late grandma’s house.
Still yearning
A huge chunk of my childhood was spent playing in the dirt and mud. I lived in bumfuck nowhere Pennsylvania, so that's all I had to do when the neighbor kids were busy.
I was playing with dried out dog shit in some forsaken sandpits of Eastern Europe just after the Soviet’s collapse.
I wish I could romanticise it somehow but no matter my attempts it never sounds super cool.
We called that area Pennsyltucky
Yup. It's an.... Interesting place to live lol
Diggy Diggy hole
These sand things just don’t exist where I am in the US. I remember when I was staying in Europe as a kid the setups with sand and water pumps being the most interesting part of a lot of playgrounds.
Yeah I've literally never even heard of these before this post
Minecraft early access.
Rock and Stone!
To the bone!
If you ain't Rock and Stone, you ain't coming home!
alcoholic noises
And here I needed instructions just to play with Legos! I remember wondering how others had such active imaginations
What do you think they are playing on the iPad? Minecraft.
The children yearn for the mines
We all played minecraft, just some of us played it in real life out of scrap metal and discarded bricks
What the hell! Wish I had that as a kid!
I didn't have this cool ass crane, but I did have a chill ass nature trail.
I didn't see this being pressed in that new apple ad
