balls
There was a time when I was at primary school (probably aged about 8 or 9), when bouncy balls were all the rage. Many a playtime we'd rush outside and see who could bounce theirs the highest off the tarmac (ideal surface!) playground. After a while throwing them hard just wasn't cutting it any more. There had to be a better way...

Cue jumping in the air and then throwing the ball as hard as you can while at the top of the jump. Oh yes. We were geniuses. One day, young beanojam decides to go for the record, jumps the highest ever, throws the hardest throw... and it bounces straight back up into my eye extremely hard. Ow.
I think the game may have stopped permanently following that incident...

Also, wearing a bin. Didn't seem so stupid at the time (I was very drunk) but looking back on it, when I think of some of the shit that must have been in there.... nice

Bouncy balls ftw!
They are single handedly responsible for my mum crying with laughter at asking my brother what I and my friends were doing, to be told "They're all out in the garden bouncing their balls around"
