You will never again eat a glorious square pizza with tiny cubes of pepperoni, drink a chocolate milk, and then go outside for recess and play Butts Up, then come back in and get to play Oregon Trail since it's "Freeday Friday Afternoon"

How does this make you feel, /jp/?

My middle school ordered pizzas from a local pizzaria, because we're obscenely wealthy. It was all cheese, though.

Also, what the fuck is Butts Up. Learn to Four Square.

Also my favorite recess activity was the swings, they were just chill and was fun to see how far you could fling your shoes.

HOLY *SHIT*

they had those pizzas at other schools too?

I didn't play butts up though, I played four square.

I feel violated. Like my childhood was cheap now.

Those round Pizzas cost 2.50 each in my school, it was horrible. The rich kids always got in that line to buy a pizza, even if they ate only half of it. The act of buying it and being in that line made them feel superior I assume.

They had to move it from the little stand it was located though, since people would take two pizzas and put it in one box.

I had the square pizzas throughout all but one year of school. That year was spent at an inner-city highschool with a large black population. They had regular pizza slices and it was actually quite good. Only problem is that was all they served, along with a nasty chicken sandwich or a horrible soyburger. Each day it was the same 3 choices, and it indeed got old.

I'd always be grossed out by the kids that slathered their pizza squares in ranch or mayonnaise

We played dodgeball.

Usually Prison or Wizards and Warriors versions.

And we played Oregon Trail or watched Disney movies/cartoons. The ones before the jew takeover.

Really good times...

My schools always had round pizzas that had a normal slice.

All I did for recess was read fantasy books from the library.

Our school was too poor for computers at the time.

Our fridays weren't anything special. Same work, no freedom. What we had was one-hour-shorter wednesdays.

Ugh, speaking of that.
There was one version of those round pizzas with a strange name. I think it was spicy chicken special or something of the sort.
Never in my fucking life have I ever seen or smelled something so repulsive.

It was a pizza with ranch dressing instead of tomato sauce, with spicy chicken instead of pepperoni over the cheese.

It always sold fast.

Most of the time the gym teachers would make us play "matball," which was basically a shitty indoor form of kickball that the gym teachers did because all it involved was a volleyball and 2 mats.

I was already small for my age and was a year younger than my classmates so each day for gym I'd have to stand before all my peers and embarrass myself with my inability to kick a ball, even the girls kicked it farther than me.

I believe that these years aided in turning me into the submissive weeny that I am today.

I remember making these animated stick figure cartoons in Powerpoint by having the slides display at high frequency.
I spent entire years of IT on those things, so much time that I didn't learn to touch type until high school (years 7-12/ages 12-18 in this country) and I still know less about Excel than the average office worker.

Our pizzas came in individual cardboard trays which led to the bottom getting soggy, but the pizza dough getting dried out; it was terrible. My favorite thing from my lunches were my bagged chocolate milk. I liked popping them when I was done.

Why did kindergarten kids and seniors in highschool get the same amount of food? In highschool everyone would always have to buy extra, I wasn't made of money (had free lunch as it was) so I couldn't blow an extra $2 on a drink and extra piece of chicken.

I never really ate lunch when I was at school. I'd usually just get a milk or something and that was it. We also weren't allowed to use the computers without the teacher around, and all the schools I went to were too poor to afford many anyway, so I never did anything interesting. Four square was basically "make up dumber moves than everyone else" and I was pretty good at it.

This.

Back when I was in school I remember my stomach would growl constantly during the last period and it happened so often that I convinced myself it was all in my head until I overheard one girl near me talking with her friend about how I was always farting (she mistook my stomach growls for farts).

For those that don't know Butts Up is this game where you throw a tennis ball against a wall and you must avoid it touching you on the ricochet. If you get hit, you must touch the wall before the ball makes it back to the wall. If you're too slow, you stand and people throw the ball at you.

Chocolate milk tastes terrible with pizza. Why would anyone deliberately have them together more than once?

>> No.9796776

Reminiscing on the past as if it was somehow really great is a diseased way of thinking. Most people at the time couldn't wait until they got older and out of school since they believed they would be able to control and do more their own lives, only to discover it was as bad out of school as it was within.

The chocolate milk was garbage but people drank it because it had more flavor than the alternatives. Those pizzas were cheap-tasting. Oregon Trail was a boring as fuck simulation where you fiddled around for a while as your wheels broke a few dozen times and the characters starved to death because you didn't know how to make use of the interface. Recess was mostly standing around trying to figure out what to do then following along passively with whatever group you associated with that week.

People just remember these things in a more favorable way because of nostalgia: remembering the good things because the boring and the bad things aren't worth remembering, and remembering some things as good despite the fact they weren't back then.
