It's fricking disgusting. Might as well just be Cumming on people.

Dead leg! We would do a pit of five to seven kids and one would walk through getting dead legged. Man the memories.

We also had the "bush" where we would come in from recess and push a kid into or over a short bush.

I had a dead leg once that lasted for a week from my brother. that and Indian sunburns and wet willies were common being the youngest by 8 years

Could never gleek. Just can't do it.
Or crack my knuckles really, not the way kids in school could. I still can't.
I remember deciding in 4th grade one day I'm gonna dedicate the next week to learning how to whistle. I think after like an hour the first day I could do the star spangled banner
The stuff like doing backflips with another person throwing your foot up is just insane. I don't even know how they learned to do that.
But then we did make each other pass out. And BB guns wars, one time I got hit off a ricochet on the bridge of my nose about 1 cm from my eye.
But I can flip my eyelids inside out, and spell "blood" with my fingers.
The dumbest thing I was jealous of was the kids who could spike their hair just running their hands through it. Mine was so light and fell back down. I realized later they were just grubby kids with greasy hair and the only difference was my Mom actually made me bathe every day.

We called it gleeting as well. Gleeking is for geeks.

I hadn't thought about gleeking in 20 yrs, it came up on KSR this week and now here is this thread. fricking weird man.
