They just don't make 'em like they used to.
This phrase applies to about anything. They don't make yo-yo's like they used to. They don't make airplanes like they used to. And they certainly don't make gas prices like they used to! Right?!? That's for damn sure.
But you know one thing they really DO make like they used to? Babies. Sex is how you make babies. Guys and girls, in and out. That really hasn't changed. Sure there's "test tube" babies out there, but they aren't real. That was just made up by your parents to keep you from doing drugs. Trust me, I know these things. I looked on wikipedia.org to read about the very first test tube baby, and I didn't find much. Whatever I read was probably lies anyways.
You wanna know another thing they DO make like they used to? Castles. You can't make a castle any other way than the old way. If you try to make it using
new techniques or with new materials, it gets classified as a "modern-day" castle. Not the same, now is it? Eureka. Eureka's Castle.But that's really about it. Babies and Castles. And those plastic parachuting men toys you would get on Easter.
What was the best way to wrap those guys up? I used to go for the "bundle up the parachute neatly as a backpack" formation with an overhand toss approach. I've seen others go about it by wadding up the parachute in a ball (dangerous) and with the great big underhand heave (unrealistic). This really needed to be a two man operation though: one dropping/throwing the parachuter from a high location and the other with a loaded and ready BB gun rifle pointed towards the sky. This is to re-enact the official atmosphere of a paratrooper jumping into battle. Just...you know...doing it over and over again until you'd get bored then just set him up on top of a pop can and shoot from 3 meters away. Korea, the forgotten war.
