Dirt ball fights, yes dirt balls. that were hard ass rocks, one hop (a form of baseball here in the dirt souf). Hide and go get it with the neighborhood girls, kick ball, dodge ball. Then when the neighborhood kids would leave for the Summer I'd get bored ass fuck and started playing with fire

We use to have parties in somebody's basement. All the neighborhood girls would come down and we would try to fuck. Mainly, we would kiss and feel them up.
We would stay out to 2 or 3 in the morning some nights. Pops didn't give a shit, All the 13-17 would be hanging out.
1996 - While in college in ATL
- Being in the library all fucking day doing research. Even on weekends
- Getting to school mad early just to get a PC to use.
- Lining up at a PC in the computer lab to write a report.
- And as a CS/CIS student, in the lab all day working on code
I grew up in Nigeria (From 84-96) so shit was different:
- Summertime - playing outside all fucking day long. Just make sure your ass is home before it gets too dark.
- Stealing peoples chickens and cooking them. We had a gang of folks who will steal the chickens, while someone else brings rice or something else. They'll cook and have a ball
- Turning abandoned fields to soccer fields and play all day.
- Cellphones/Phones - Nah, you walk your ass to your friends house and pray that motherfucker was home
- Walking everywhere. Long ass walks to school
- Rock wars, throwing rocks at one another, or using rubber bands with paper bullets.
- Fights - Our weapons were knives and bottles. I was an expert in cracking a bottle and using it to stab motherfuckers.
- Not using calculators to solve math problems. We had what was called a Math Log book, which is what we used to look up the Sine, Cosine or Tangent values for angles, or to find the log value of a number.
- TV not coming on till 4pm, kicking off with the National Anthem, and goes off at 12am. These days folks in Nigeria get the same stations we have here. 24/7 TV.
- Shooting pool all day long. Be in the pool hall from like 11am to 9pm...What a life...
- Porn - Hard to come by. You had to get a tape from someone back then.
- Just lounging without a care in the world.
- Tapes - you cherished your cassette tapes. MP3...what? If your tape pops, or if the player eats it, you're in tears...
I can go all day...
Women weren't plastic and we wore belts.
We climbed trees.
When is the last time you saw a kid climb a tree?
Bitch assed kids.
