Old School Playgrounds
The reason kids these days have such low self-esteem is because, well, just look at their wussy playgrounds. (This just in: I've officially become old).
Here's a list of things they need to reinstate at all playgrounds:
1. Rickety Merry-Go-Rounds because the one with the strongest stomach survives. It's darwinism at its finest.
2. Tan Bark because splinters add character.
3. Long Metal Slides because the burn marks on the back of your thighs are nothing compared to the spanking your parents gave you at home.
4. Lead Paint because it killed your taste buds so that mom's cooking would taste like heaven.

And how about backyard playgrounds shoddily built by the father of the family...my best friend growing up had one of these...a wooden slide, with nail tips sticking out into the slide surface was the hallmark of it...hello massive cut and ensuing gangrene and leg amputation! (Never actually happened, but it probably should have knowing that thing)...ok, rant over
