the couch that my parents had when i was very young (younger than 6) was poorly upholstered and had some staples or something that were not flush. i was sitting on the couch and swinging my legs and hitting one of them with my achilles and it hurt like a mf

I think i stole every game manual from every game i rented when i was young

yelling at the TV in my foyer with a friend, trying to sing along to the skylanders drill bot. we kept hearing it because we sucked at the fight

Tying star wars action figures to the ceiling fan with fishing line and turning it on.

Those things would be worth a fortune today

My dad's red pickup truck burned up in the driveway.

I actually cried about it and had nightmares. It was fine, really, no one was hurt and the truck was old. It caught on fire because my dad was burning ditches and his gas tank had a tiny leak. He made it home fine, didn't get burned at all, but the truck burned quite a lot, it was quite charred and my young self was pretty freaked out.

getting so excited after hatching the Century Dragon in DragonVale that I forgot it was 4am and I woke up my Dad who was absolutely ticked and made me uninstall the game (probably for the best tbh)

My cousins introducing me to Dragon Ball when I was 5.

Watching an apartment complex engulfed in flames from the balcony of our own apartment across the street/a block away (can't remember exactly how far away it was)

Bouncing a recently sharpened pencil up and down on my desk and suddenly getting stabbed by that pencil and the tip broke off in my hand under my skin (I never got it out)

My first time hacking an online game was GunZ online, where me and a friend used a packet editor to capture the death/revive packets, and alternate sending them super fast so the other player gets max exp, then switching off so I can do it to my account.

Playing beyblade tournaments during recess and I was the one with the portable stadiun

My Dad sent our cat down my childhood slide

I stepped on one of my mom's pin cushions as we were watching a movie

Watching the important videos Playlist on the tv, it somehow cutting out to an impractical jokers episode and we kept watching it for like 5 minutes waiting for the joke

stapled my thumb through the thumbnail on the last day of school because I thought it was unset and I pushed up on the staple hole (attempt at Good Samaritan behavior) (it was a curved-back stapler)

burning trash on the trash pile

a small firecracker exploding in my hand

winning handily at checkers against someone sober while I was tripping pretty hard

having to pull a car out of a ditch after the driver puked on themself after taking a big hit off a fat joint I rolled

My absolute earliest memory is me looking up at some dinosaurs in a dark room with flashes of light and loud noises and being terrified, only to get to the end and find out it was an amusement park ride. I never found out which ride or amusement park it was.

The day I finally beat racing my friend to the best swing on the playground. He was typically always faster than me, including after that day.

I totally would have got to pet that cool looking crab if my cousin didn't push me off that rock we were climbing.

Playing with mom’s hair and pretending it was a curtain in her bed while she watched Dateline.

My dog Woody laying in the grass outside the window while I cried about not understanding my homework.

Eating sticky rice and soy sauce at my aunt and uncle’s house, and his bracelet that looked like two snakes.

got interviewed in a bulk thing and my vibes were so immaculate the newscasters commented on me specifically after-action
