Ive always wondered about this.

Im in my 30s, and when I was a boy me and my friends used to play war, like we was in Vietnam.

But do kids in Italy play Roman Legionary? Do the French play Musketeer or the British play knights anf shit? (well I suppose everyone plays Medieval shit at some point). Did the Spanish kids play Conquistadors or the Portuguese play Planet of the Apes?

Im seriously curious.
>>
children playing war? that's fucked up
>>
>>61733120
No.
>>
>>61733120
We just used to play war, I don't think it was a particular era. Sometimes it would be guns and other times it would be swords, sometimes both (all done with sticks of course).
>>
>>61733197
You never had capguns or waterguns and ran around like you was in a firefight?

Maybe the memes about your cou try are true

>swe-stan flag

Oh, that explains it.
>>
>>61733229
>sometimes it was swords

Oh, dont get me wrong, we were ninjas too.

But our main thing was smoking gooks at the 38th parallel
>>
We used to run around the forest and shoot at imaginary russians with rifles carved out of wood. Good times.
>>
>>61733120
No that's stupid, I didn't know what a conquistador was when I had the age to play that kind of games.

I played [insert here popular violent tv series or movie].

@61733120
Its ok OP (You)
>>
Nah me and my mates just used to stand about 30 metres apart and chuck stones at each other
>>
We used to kill the Japs! Great times riding our bikes hanging out at the trails.
>>
>>61733120
We played DBZ and every kid wanted to be fucking Cell because he could do everything.
>>
When I was younger I used to play in the bush with my friends and we'd pretend to be knights and shit and just beat each other with sticks.
>>
From the netherlands, used to play cowboys and indians here. (dont think its pc enough for todays audience tho)
>>
>>61733342
>rifles carved out of wood
+1 xp

We just bought like 30 of those little 80 cent waterguns from the supermarket. Then in the 90s Supersoakers came out and we all became Delta Force Elite Squadron.
>>
>>61733541
I feel you. Every november aroumd thanksgiving wed start playing pilgrims vs indians and blasted many a redskin
>>
We played Arabs vs the police. Not kidding.
>>
>>61733641
We had some watergun wars too. Balloons made amazing grenades.

The season for that is just a little short here, lol
>>
Soldiers, Cowboys, Ninjas, DBZ shit, Knights, etc. Used to pretend our bikes were motorcycles or space ships or whatever vehicle was appropriate for the game we were playing.

Do kids nowadays still have imaginations or do corporations do all their imagining for them now?

parents played cowboys and indians when they were kids

i remember knights were really hot when I was a kid
we made swords and shields in shop class at school

when the phantom menace came out we played that (i was an edgy sith of course)

we also made pea shooters out of pic related and a balloon and had wars with them
>>
Any excuse to fight really, we used to just hit each other with flax plants one time
>>
I sed to live in a commieblock when i was a kid and the kids from my block and the other from the other block used to wage war against each other, We threw pranks, bombs in front of theirleader apartments door and even alliance.

Shit was fun as fuck, we even did some kidnaps during the whole day.

How is that any different from what adult Brazilians do?

Not enough rape.

Entirely. Why?

>>61733398
>I played [insert here popular violent tv series or movie]
pretty much this. we would play G.I. Joe or X-men
>>
>>61733120
my friends and i played knights desu, it was good fun. much better hitting each other with "swords" than with guns because there comes the problem where you say "i hit you!" "nuh-uh!" cuz there are no fucking bullets, whereas a stick hit is very absolute.

>portuguese play planet of the apes

Subtle Masterpiece, very artfully done, exquisite, I can taste the oaky cinniamon vanillin sweetness, with a hint of savoriness from this post. Magnificent. Marvelous.

I remember that we used to go to this glen and play war, one kid had borrowed his older brother's soft air gun, I had a rifle carved out of wood and the other kids improvised using sticks. We alternated between WW2 and Caroleans. Other than that we would "explore" old, abandoned cottages in the nearby vicinity, play football, go swimming in the summer, race our bikes and look for porn mags hidden out in the bushes.

It was quite different from what my younger brother and his friends do.
>>
When I was a kid, I use to play
Dragon ball Z kind of shit, walking around in my yard after school, picturing fake dudes coming at me to kick my ass off

Main scenario was about me getting knocked the fuck out at first, and then transforming into a super sayajin and getting up and bombarding the face of the bad guy with punches
and winning before being forced to do homework
