Back in my day...

Post by Jiggers McCoy »

We had to make beer bongs out of shit we bought at home depot and we had to stumble half-drunk into a gas station and ask if they had any ping pong balls so we could play beer pong.

None of this horseshit!

Our American friends have those strange college traditions with lots of quickly swallowed beer and drinking games.

If it needs gear, it's too complicated. You have to put the line in somewhere.

Back in my day, we had steam-powered bongs and played beer pong with .69 caliber musket balls.

Aye, Home Depot came later. It ate things like Builderama, a southeastern chain that may have shown me my first alcoholic. Friend's dad was a CPA for said southeastern chain. Rarely saw him. When I did, he was next to a 12-pack. A warming 12-pack. He just took it to the bedroom and drank it, and wasn't seen around the house.

The mom was hyperactively Christian, and the kids ranged from future pastor to future state patrol...and whatever came of the other one.

Back in my day, we just got drunk and threw random things at each other. Sometimes, we stumbled down the road to the TG&Y store and bought us some Superballs to throw. They were some kind of fun, on account of they bounced better than a golf ball thrown offa a nine story building. (ask me about my time on the Rock, bwaha-haha-snort).

They had in Superballs in Germany at the end of the 19th century?
