'82 here.
I used to ride my bike so much. The more spokes you had in your bike rims, the cooler they were. If you had plastic mag rims, those were even cooler. I don't know how the fuck I survived. We used to ride our bikes in hella crazy traffic a LONG ways from home.
We used to steal bikes n chop 'em up and split up the parts n shit haha.
All summer long, I'd stay in the pool (lived in a townhouse neighborhood).
I used to get stacks of these coupons from a movie store for a free ice cream cones from McDonald's, so I was in there all the time gettin' ice cream for free.
We all had NERF guns so we would have NERF wars.
We would play football all the time, whether it was a regular tackle game or smear the queer/fumble rumble.
In the neighborhood, we would make ramps on this dirt trail for our bikes and see who could get the most air.
There was a creek between the neighborhood and the high school and we would find different spots for jumping across it. I broke my foot on one jump and had to be carried home haha.
We would all stay over at each others houses and play Nintendo, and then later Sega Genesis.
We used to collect comic books, comic cards and baseball cards. If you got the special holographic card, everyone would try to trade you a gang of crappy stuff for it.
So much fun stuff was done back in the day.

played sports and stayed outside. occasional fights but nuthing serious. Rock fights and the scrambled porn channel for sure. big ass tackle football games were the shit. maybe sneaking in a beedi. Fingering and bitches getting their tiddies in were big topics of discussion. Choco tacos. going on long ass walking missions to buy stupid shit like candy. Sigging. hiding raging boners that popped up at fucked up times. Draw. comic books. Looking for salamanders or craw fish. Shooting things with the homie's bb gun. Putting a quarter up on the machine, to get in line to play street fighter 2. Buying cigarettes from the cigarette machine at kentwig. Guess overalls were big but I didn't have any. Listened to bbd. Hella looked forward to Halloween. Humping a pillow and wishing it was punky Brewster. Basketball, as a sport to watch and play. Duck tails. Ellesse shoes.
