So nobody else played with boxes? :******:

We played with boxes C_A. We had an appliance store adjacent to our property and we would grab boxes from refrigerators, washers, dryers, you name it. We would set up forts in the backyard and sleep in them at night. They would get destroyed when it rained, though one is still standing and I live in it!

I used to live near a park with HUGE hills. We all would get boxes and sled down the hill. Good times.

And this is why I live with another guy.

This might make me sound like a huge fag, but I don't care...

When I was younger, I used to sleep with a Premium Link Upgrade in one arm and Premium Link Upgrade from Fraggle Rock in the other.

I also remember the one remote control ******* truck called the ****** that had retractable claws on the tires. I think my ****** got mad and threw it into the back of my ******* with the claws out a long time ago.
