Us GenXers 🤣🤣💯🎯

Millennial here. I can confirm I did 86.3% of all those things.

@amylmaclellan Did most of those, and lots of this and this 😅

Remember pencil fighting?

Yep

She forgot this one 🔥

What life was REALLY like before cell phones...💯👇

I still have one of those pens and I still try to push them all down at the same time, even though I know it’s not possible I will succeed. And I will become the Gen X master Legend 😂

I’ll add one. 😂👌👌

This is why the average IQ of gen z is lower than all generations that came before it. We used to make games, toys, ornaments using the stuff that was available to us at that moment. Like MacGyver. Now, all these gen z kids do is play with their phone apps. No creativity at all.

Guilty of doing all of this. Brought back memories

Holly shit!!! I've literally forgotten about all of these wondrous things. What about folding a paper clip to make it pop and jump if you touch it. Or disassembling your ballpoint pen and making it launch the pen into the ceiling to make it stick.

🎯

I did all but the 1st one (heart pumping) and the paper clip braces (I used aluminum foil as grills).

It's missing one thing...grabbing the wooden ruler that had the metal stripe on the edge. Then rubbing that metal edge on your shoe to heat it up then touching the persons neck who sat in front of you in class.

You know what’s quite interesting? We all use to do this in school but from miles away in New Zealand. Considering we didn’t have social media and most didn’t have internet, Why did we all do this?

😁

Do you remember the 12-inch rulers that had that little strip of metal on the edge so you could draw a straight line? Guys in my middle school would rub the strip real fast on the bottom of their shoes to bear it up with friction and then burn each other with them

What about talking into a fan so your voice sounds like a robot?😂

Best fucking days of my feral life !!! GenX 73

the best of it is that somehow it went viral and universal, saying this as a 39yo Brazilian

In grade school we put Elmer’s glue in the curved “divot” that was in the middle of the length of a ruler…let it dry…then made fake nails out of it😂

Since a whole lot of people are talking about GenZ, may I remind them that GenZ starts in 1994 and ends in 2012. The majority of Gen Z did the same thing as all of you Millenials Gen X’ers. As a 2000 baby, I didnt see any kids with smartphones until 8th grade in 2013-14

DAMN U GOT ALMOST EVERYTHING HAHAHA I USED TO LOVE SPIT BALLZ , EVEN THE RUBER BAND WITH FOLDED PAPPER USE IT AS A SHOOTER! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 👌🏽

It was shit wasn't it? How bored we were on a regular basis. You looked forward to the summer holidays all year...then they dragged like fuck

Same for us Xennials!

Remember lots of them.

Increíble que fos global sense ni tan sols existir internet
