| 1983 | Article | Vaporman87 | I think you are right that our desire for nostalgic feelings rests with the experiences and trials of our youth. Though, in my case, I was the kid with lifelong friends... Living and growing in the same community all my life. I still had to deal with the fallout of divorce and all that brings with it. But in the end it afforded me a new brother who I still consider a brother even now (his mom and my dad are divorcing now too). I think in light of that, what I'm looking for is to celebrate the good times and have them somehow benefit my children. | Feb 12, 2015 |  | |
| 1993 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 I appreciate your final thought there. This has really struck a cord on my Facebook page too, judging by the comments. Hey, if we can raise a kinder generation of kids it would be great. Otherwise we can just help our kids to deal with the inevitable times of being singled out for our differences and teach them to celebrate that. Sure I got picked on, but I never changed for other people. Eventually they appreciated who I was. OK, off my soap box now ;) @NLogan It's so cool that you had back-up all those years, great to have a partner along for the ride. Al That moving must have been rough. Your point about the possessions is pretty well founded, sometimes they would be the only constant. | Being The Fat Kid | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 4717 | Article | Dalek227 | Oh I love this so much!! I especially relate to the comments your friends dad made. People don’t think they sound as bad as they really do LOL I’m still adding parts to my article because it’s almost like therapy. What I find hard is when I’m writing, I’m thinking in the mindset of how I felt back then, but I don’t want people to think my childhood was all crap because it wasn’t. So I feel like I have to throw in a reminder here and there that it wasn’t total crap it just wasn’t the normal skinny kid childhood haha | Being The Fat Kid | Dec 15, 2018 | |
| 4718 | Article | Vaporman87 | Looking forward to the next part, Dalek. I think time helps to sort the good from the bad. Some people tend to forget the bad, whether consciously or subconsciously, and focus on the good. I think I fit that description. | Being The Fat Kid | Dec 15, 2018 | |
| 1960 | Article | Vaporman87 | Well that stinks. At least there was forgiveness for you in the end. I know there have been interactions with my friends growing up that I definitely needed forgiveness from someone for (just see my comments on Hoju's "Being The Fat Kid" article). Even so, these are really just innocent, youthful mistakes that don't matter in the grand scheme of things. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 11, 2015 | |
| 1961 | Article | Benjanime | to be honest both me and jesse had a pretty curious nature at the time, though i was more of the troublemaker when it came to finding outdoor activities. i still thought of the consequences but i always went for risk. the only problem was, the more i'd gotten in trouble, the more my belongings my parents would sell. back then i remember losing a sega game gear and a vhs player. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 11, 2015 | |
| 1962 | Article | vkimo | Wow, haha. Your friend's folks seemed a bit uptight, but sneaking in to play some games is pretty bold, I would never had the nerve to do that! As for the TV, just unplug it. The neighbor would have given you up either way though. Great story | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 11, 2015 | |
| 1966 | Article | Benjanime | they weren't nearly as aggressive as my stepdad, he's the one who came out with the 2x4, though the mom was scared with how i got in the house. his dad on the other hand didn't have much to say other than that he'd be the one making sure the doors are locked from then on. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 11, 2015 | |
| 1989 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I totally thought you were going to get away with it and that Jessie would help you escape out the window or something. At least you weren't there to steal his games. I had a "friend" who did that that I wish I could have seen smacked with a 2x4! Uh, what was the premise of Normy's Beach Babe O Rama? Definitely never heard of that one. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 12, 2015 | |
| 1992 | Article | Benjanime | True, but I don't know about him helping me. When I visited him again for his Birthday he had a suspicious look on his face, so he possibly did get the idea that I'd steal them. From what I recall in Normy it was about some hippie guy that has to rescue a group of clad beach girls after an alien abduction. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 13, 2015 | |
