In my day, we did not get a school lunch, we had to kill our own food or starve...

[texas1928]

5. Lawn. Pfft. I've seen deserts with more grass.

[texas1928]

10. GRASS GRASS?!?!

We had to go find leaves to crush up to make a dye so that we could dye the dirt green. Hell we had to invent color first.

[jobycom]

22. All that free time, ALL THAT FREE TIME!?!?!

Inventing color, dye, green... When I was in school we was too busy walkin to school in the dark, 50 miles! 50 miles! In the dark and the mud, mud everywhere because we had to EAT the grass! And we ate the LEAVES, too! Weren't no durn leaves for no dyin' the mud green! Leaves was food! ANd you know what? We liked it! We was just fine! Some people didn't even THAT!

Why you younguns with you free time and fancy foods and dirt yards.

One time we had to shoot Old Yeller's daddy, Older and Yellerer, just for stew-meat. And we liked it.

8. Now who would be proud of that?

Or, perhaps, Hu would be proud of that?

:wow:

:yoiks:



(Sorry, bad joke and I do understand the practical reasons behind eating dogs, sad as it is...)

[east texas lib]

9. Jokes aside, that's one entree I could never partake of.

That's what o'possums are for!:9

[texas1928]

12. PFFFTT

We had to tame dogs first.

[Xipe Totec]

7. Amateur

we just followed the buzzards to the kill site.

saves a lot of effort.

[texas1928]

11. Not when your weak with hunger.

we waited for the buzzards to come to us and then ate them.

[krispos42]

13. You and your fancy-shmancy pointed sticks

Must have been nice. We didn't have those wussy luxuries. We used non-pointy sticks! Now THAT'S hunting!

[texas1928]

15. Sticks???

where did I say sticks?

We used our hands.


Now if someone says they did not have hands I am calling bullshit.

[krispos42]

18. You used your hand, huh?

And I bet you had those newfangled 'arm' thingies between your wrists and your shoulders. Well, not when I was your age!!!

We had our hands attached right to our shoulders! And we had to throw a dull stick into an animal without any arms or elbows!

You youngsters today...


<sadly shakes head>

[texas1928]

19. UHM

That is BS, prove it.

[krispos42]

21. No arms, can't operate a camera

:P

[undeterred]

14. In my day we fought the rats that hung out by the dumpster

and grilled them to eat for lunch.

[texas1928]

16. Must be nice to have something to attract them...

We had to attract them ourselves.

[undeterred]

17. They came for the maggots that were feeding on our open sores.

:nopity:

[latebloomer]

23. At least you had maggots!

It's a LOT better than eating leaves!

[Danger Mouse]

24. In my day we learned about evolution the old fashioned way...

by eating each other! Survival of the fittest...we didn't read 'Lord of the Flies'...we LIVED it.
