I did this in the 2000s too!

But they're cute.

kah-chunk

I still have mine, in working condition. Mind you, I grew up in post communist Romania, so having this was the utter most lavish thing my parents could afford. But it made my teenage years so much better

Oh yes, ashtrays everywhere

I still love these guys lol - the excitement you feel as you yeet it off the top of the staircase - ah, the good days…

Kids still do this in preschool

Then there were 10 boxes of just the strawberry part left in the freezer

Omg YES!!!!! Frickin LOVED doing that

My favorite colors were the gold silver and copper ones. And I can still imagine the smell.

I had a clear CD discman!

the only reason you had that case for a nokia was to attach it to your belt. It was NOT to protect it, nokia 3210s could survive a direct hit with a 10 megaton blast with only minor scuff marks

I am sorry, but that is awesome, that was/is a cool magasine

I had my first kiss at the local roller rink in 1990 when I was 13. Cal-Skate lol. It's still in business in the same location 😊

I still have mine circa 1963. My desperately want Christmas present. Now my grandkids have grown out of it.

This f****r would ALWAYS get accidentally set off about 0.000001 seconds after you laboured for like an hour to set it up. >.>

Lol that's a picture of the new one I still say the old one was significantly better.

I got this for my birthday but, it didn't have the diving board. My dad used a small wooden ruler which worked just as well.

My nana still has her's! We always played it when I came over as a kid.

You can still buy this game so not obsolete

This game was ELITE!! I wish we still had it. Of course we lost pieces every time we played lol

Never once played the game. Just assembled it and set it in motion.

I remember this from when my daughter was little.

I don't know of anyone who was ever able to put that thing together properly.

I had one but didnt know how to use it.

We never wanted to play the game itself, we wanted to play with the trap!

This contraption never worked, but it was still a fun concept for a board game.

My go-to gift for young families to this day,

Loved playing this!

We younger 3/6 played it frequently 😂👍💗 but it often led to squabbling 🤭

Never actually played the game, just built and operated the mouse trap part. Favorite gimmick was the guy who “back flipped” from the springboard into the bath tub.

I had this game in the late 80's, and had hours of fun with it! I told my daughter about it and she would love to play this game, but I have no clue where it ended up...

My sister had that. We weren't allowed to touch it, but it was to cool

Finally learned how to put the damn thing together at 39. Still don't know how to play because ny nephew is 4 and loves just setting the trap off, but I finally know how to put it together. Though it is Sligh different setup from the one pictured

I Never played the game... but, I Loved putting it together and watch it work! Specially the "old diving guy" WHEEEE!

...with the sounds of creaking door and hooting owl...

the original unfriend

"Joey, have you ever been in a turkish prison?"

They would bounce and bounce and bounce if you dropped them. No hiding it!

My great grandma at one point had a Highlights subscription, one issue included a game that she carefully removed and taped together, we played it with buttons. I wish I could go back and actually listen when she talked.

I honestly miss, that you could have a game on a disk or simliar, install it and then play (without downloading another x Gigabyte data), use it without Internet connection, lend it to friends etc

Me too

Yup, totally wouldn't still do that as a full grown adult, honest!

They look like party pills

Just one whiff would clear out your sinuses.

And now I'm remembering lucky bags

I've got a big candy dish full of these right now beside me in bed right now! My son and I both are on the tail end of a week long COVID infection. Thank God it wasn't anything worse than having the flu (thank you vaccines!). Those body aches, though, there's no description for them they were so intense. Anyway, Luden's cough drops are the best cough aide you can buy, other than liquor😁!

I refuse to accept this is obsolete. Every one of my nephews was given a Busytown book as their first gift from me.

NO DISASSEMBLE!

I wish I still had mine.

Yes. It was bloody awful!
