Things we did that didn't kill us.

I made brownies tonight. Of course it said on the package DO NOT EAT RAW BATTER. Same thing on the back of the cookies I made the other day. I said fuck that shit..and I licked the bowl and spoon like I always did as a kid. I'm still here, ain't I. So I wondered if y'all did or do the same? Ignore the stupid instructions and lick away?

What did you do that didn't kill ya but snowflakes are afraid to step out of line and as they are told nowadays?

Drink from the hose. Ride in the back of a pick-up. Rode motorcycles for over 20 years with no helmet. In my 30s before I used a seat belt.

I still refuse to wear a seat belt.
And if thirsty with no water bottle handy...I will drink from a hose too. I let it run a few seconds to clear the old water still in it, though.

Hide and seek in the yard. At night. With no fence.
Climb VERY tall trees.
Halloween candy gobbled up without being xray first.

I always used seat belts. Not to keep from being injured, but to keep me behind the wheel when I was driving hard.

HaHaHa, they didn't even have them available for the first 15 years of my life and they weren't required for the first 30.

Do we really need a label on products warning us about what "the State of California" believes is good for us or not?

Raw chocolate chip cookie dough is one of the most delicious thins on this planet and no one is going to make me stop eating some when my wife bakes them.

I go out and pee on statues of little kids peeing.

WTF?

The plastic taste is part of the experience.

I bet if they bottled "hose water" with that taste added in boomers would buy it by the case.

I've been making faces for decades and, despite the consistent warnings from my mother, my face never froze that way.

 

[strollingbones]

Repeatedly asking my mother "why?"

The warning to not eat raw batter means that the batter contains raw eggs. Raw eggs is known to sometimes contain salmonella.

I have a fear of being stuck in the car and it blowing up while I struggle to release a seat belt. I'll take my chances being flung from the car and THEN it can blow up.

I used to play slap jacks...with forks. Everyone always pulled away, so I guess we all were chickens, lol.

They make little extrication tools that break windows and cut away seat belts.
