Every Single One of These Images Will Bring You Right Back to Elementary School

Just try and tell me you weren't putting your index finger in these while walking through the halls.

Man these things just stank. Never looked forward to putting them on.

Bonus points for making little circles. I still do this when I ride back on a bus from the city.

My teacher was especially fond of "Mary had a Little Lamb."

Was lowkey jealous of the kids who could skip in place.

The best is when you memorized the "times table" and sped through it like an OG.

Seriously...but every class had them. Bonus points if you would use them as a monocle like you were the monopoly guy at a Pride parade.

Loved it when they busted this bad boy out.

But who cares, it was delicious. Who else was afraid of getting tongue splinters?!

And grape. This is where our idea for flavored vape cartridges started, I know it.

Such a great thing to look forward to.

Worse if it's a nice eraser, too.

But I'm showing my age here, aren't I?

Heck I still get excited over these pens. Why aren't all of them like this?

Hurts more when it came from one of the bolts on the chair, too.

But that didn't mean I wasn't surrounded by them on a daily basis.

Or bad things will happen. A great ab workout for kids, too.

But it's chocolate, so who cares? The only thing that comes close is Yoo-Hoo.

But if I was in elementary school when they were around, I'd be all over these bad boys.

Poor kids would at least get a cool book marker, or some discount Goosebumps from last year's collection.

1. Learning cursive is hard. These helped to make things easier.

But I could be on Microsoft Paint for hours, drawing a sun wearing sunglasses with a cigarette in his mouth. Then I'd get sent to the Principal's office.

Once you learn the concept or 3D, there's no going back. Pixar, here I come.

we were all upset at first, but then just held these in our hands like little firm water balloons...or breast implants.

The best is when you wore some thick Tims or steel toe Mountain Gears and sent these things flying.

I never knew how to make these, but it was a good day when it got passed around.

You weren't allowed to sharpen anything but pencils in it, anyway.

They'd swoop in and stake their claim while the rest of us humps waited for microwaved pizza nuggets and a fruit cup.
