While my parents were gone and me and my brother were video gaming, I got hungry and ate all the bread.
When my parents got home, I said, "It turned invisible and fell out of the bag!"

what’s something weird you did when you were a kid? i assume many of us are still young, but think back and share your goofiest childhood moments

for instance: i used to hate music class and would sing like a robot (or not even “sing” per se) during the christmas musicals my elementary school did every year. idk why, i just did. which is a far cry from now, when music is the lifeforce of my existence

now it’s your turn :yellow_bouncey:
The weirdest shit i done as a kid was usually opening an optical disk drive (it was built in on my toshiba laptop) and play with it many times
like closing it and opening it.... theres this weird thing that my father told me is that i used to scratch cds but i dont think i did that lmao
Dude SAME! I remember doing this with my aunt's laptop.

I used to marathon video games like crazy. When Friday night hit, if there was something I really wanted to play I would sit for 24+ hours at a time and just grind through stuff. I don't know how my parents tolerated it. Renting a game over the weekend was more than enough time to grind through most stuff, so needless to say I was disappointed when the last one in town went out of business.

When I was kindergarten-aged I used to boot up Twilight Princess on the Gamecube to do not much else but wear the Zora armor and swim around Lake Hylia. I never took that armor off. I really wanted to be a Zora in the game so I would just pretend that I was. I guess that's what happens when Link is piloted around by a 5 year old

I did a lot of weird shit as a kid, especially with my toys.

I remember once, when I was 7 years old, giving some of my Barbie dolls some tattoos on their legs and faces with a black pen one evening because I thought tattoos were the coolest thing after noticing the ones my mom has on her shoulders and near the back of her neck.

I also remember pretending I was a Winx fairy at recess and at the play area of one of my childhood malls at that age (I so badly wished I were a fairy that could shoot out powerful bursts of energy from my hands, not to mention fly, because of that show).
So here I am, it's in my hands, and I'll savor every moment of this...

reminds me of how me and my brother would pretend to be smash bros. characters. i… wasn’t the best at role-playing

on a related note, i remember how i used to refuse to play as female characters in games, or wish that female characters i liked were not girls. yeah, yikes… glad i grew out of THAT phase :orange_paranoid:
