retro fun – childhood trauma edition

Trials in life build character and make us stronger, right? 
Well, in that case, these kids will eat nails when they grow up.
Or, they’ll develop a debilitating addiction to prescription pain medication. 
It’s too soon to tell.

If these look familiar to you, that’s because you’ve seen them on my Retro Fun tumblr blog.
If they don’t look familiar to you, then I’ve succeeded in re-cycling existing content to appear productive.  I’m not proud of my trickery, but desperate times call for desperate actions.

  1. - and it’s paperless! You are single-handedly changing the world we live in, and saving the blogospehere from eventual destruction with your thrifty recycling!

    Those Diners in Hell are quite frightening. I feel threatened.

  2. I love the “act naturally” picture. The funny thing is, hipsters would pay big $$ nowadays for just about everything in it. With the possible exception of the accordian.

    • You don’t remember those salt and pepper shakers on sticks, so you don’t get your hands close to the flames while seasoning your meat? Yeah. Me, either.

  3. Your retro fun posts are so entertaining. Embarrassing too, because those ridiculous things from clothing to attitudes to objects were thought to be so cool at the time. Can it be that our aged parents were all jerks?

    • I can only imagine what we’ll we’ll think in 30 years about stuff we think is perfectly normal today. If our parents are all just jerks, then we are the jerks to future generations. I’m okay with that!
