The engineer in me says, "I wonder how big I could make one of those..."

Barbaricballoon · 7 months

I hated the ones with the holes in the top. I liked the ones without them, so I could stick them to my face.

wabeka · 7 months

They had nothing on this guy

WHAT ARE THEY CALLED?!

razgrez · 7 months

My old girlfriend put one on my penis while I slept. not the best alarm.

[deleted] · 7 months

Until they become a weapon...

TrendyGame · 7 months

Fun fact: I used to "arm" them and place them on top of my finger and then proceed to pretend that my finger was one of these enemies from Rayman.

lfod · 7 months

NO SIR. stuck one to my forehead with suction, had a giant hickey from a plastic popper. bad week in 4th grade. baaad week. =(

KinkyK · 7 months

I'm 20 years old and I only figured out what these things were a few weeks ago. What did I miss in my childhood?

ka88ie · 7 months

I have never seen these before and am lost.

ailli · 7 months

I got my niece some of these to put in her Easter basket; she's seven and I don't think she's ever played with them. She will have JUST as much fun with them as I did when I was her age. Have an upvote!

missminicooper · 7 months

I liked these but my mom hated them.

jeffanie96 · 7 months

I miss those so much

DforDrew · 7 months

My brother once stuck one onto his forhead. When he found out that it was not popping or coming off, he went to remove it by pulling it off with force instead of sliding it. After a full minute of rigorous pulling, he popped the toy off. To his suprise, it left a nice, perfectly circular bruise on the middle of his forehead. It was there at least 2 weeks after this occured. Fuck, that was funny.

anoxy · 7 months

oh my god. i completely forgot about these. thank you.

[deleted] · 7 months

You got invited to birthday parties when you were a kid? ... ... ... What was it like?

I am beginning to think my parents hated me.... :(

Cronus6 · 7 months

As someone born in 1969...

What in the ever living fuck are those?

And why did they interest you so much?

Kayak_God · 7 months

I once had one hit me in the balls... actually, it was the first time I can remember getting sack-tapped.

geeklimit · 7 months

This is the safest way for kids to learn to be wary of unexploded fireworks.

Avalon143 · 7 months

We gave so many fake hickies...

RullyisJRM · 7 months

I always got an orange one. No one would ever trade me for theirs.

hemlock_tea · 7 months

Poppers were awesome, but these were always my favorite.

Neur0nauT · 7 months

Frogs are more fun.....but most folk don't love frogs.

babycubbybear · 7 months

For all the folks that don't know what these are they're called "eye poppers" the we're just rubber... Uh... Poppers... That you'd turn inside out and put down on something, and after a few seconds they'd pop and fly into the air,... And they were awesome!

superboredguys · 7 months

try putting it on the tip of ur penis.. it hurts. i tried it.. when I was little.. don't judge me.

thescribblery · 7 months

I am so freaking perplexed. I look at those things, and the most vibrant memory that pops up is their taste. Now, I don't remember eating these things, or attempting to eat them, or licking them. But my god, I can taste them. WHY.

Mexipad · 7 months

Child sized condoms?

Smorsh · 7 months

How is this funny?

SH3RB3RT · 7 months

My favorite thing as a kid I got out of a Rice Crispies cereal box.

brianbrianbrian · 7 months

I was at a wedding once, and one of our little cousins came by. He picked one of these up and started eating it. I leaned down and told him "no, don't put that in your mouth."

He flung it at my face as hard as he could and walked off.

roboticwife · 7 months

OH MY EASTER BUNNY, YES! The best!

GMBeats95 · 7 months

I put one on the tip of my penis. Worst mistake of my life

greensthecolor · 7 months

seemed to me like all the other kids (and most adults) were too dumb to make them work.

tihssihtkcuf · 7 months

I put one of those on my forehead and got a toy hickey once. Yeahh I had to go to school like that.

Prinnydood333 · 7 months

X-post to /r/nostalgia?

ColeSloth · 7 months

They're way better without the stupid hole in them that was forced as a "safety" feature.

ukp42 · 7 months

what are these used for? Am in the UK & never seen these before. Thank you

tamazin · 7 months

I don't know what these are. Clearly I missed out.

IDWALLI · 7 months

Every time i went to cicIs pizza i'd spent all my quarters on these at the €25 machine!

noccusJohnstein · 7 months

I used to use these as automatic timers for disposable cameras. I was a pretty brilliant kid.

BigGazoo · 7 months

Put that on your thumb, will go all the way across the classroom.

Megacomics · 7 months

Bitch please, that is still my favorite thing to get at parties.

CordouroyStilts · 7 months

A friend of mine got one of these in a Cap'n Crunch box when we were younger. He put it on his little brothers eye trying to turn him into a Pirate. His brother "broke" blood vessels in his eye and had to go to the hospital. Long story short, it made the news and a bunch of Cap'n Crunch boxes with that as a prize were pulled from store shelves. Thanks for listening.

shaneisgreenland · 7 months

I always loved getting fake rings with these huge gemstones, because I would wear them and pretend to be a Planeteer.

Hiafolks · 7 months

I got one once, but i never really knew how to use it...

DeleteAsAppropriate · 7 months

Why do seeing these make my mouth water?

Red76 · 7 months

My husband put one of those on my car seat today, as I got into the car with him. Surprise.

AlixTengusa · 7 months

I have one of these in my purse just cuz they're fun:30

lalsldlflglhljlkl · 7 months

when i was a kid i thought it would be a good idea to pop one off my tonge.. my friend said he was going to get help but he only got a camera.....

nextplzzzz · 7 months

Ow! my head :o

All_the_other_kids · 7 months

I loved those things

saraaacrawford · 7 months

I could never get these to work!! They would always undo as soon as I let to of them

flaccidcompanion · 7 months

i used to just immediately begin gnawing on those things once i got them.

SteveZi · 7 months

hickey makers!

ADancingRobot · 7 months

I work at an arcade and this is still sold at prize claim and the kids love them! :)...for a few days. but man. what a great few days.

apoole97 · 7 months

I loved the things you blow and they pop out and make a noise.My mom would always "lose" them on the way home.

JakJakAttacks · 7 months

My favorite thing to do was put it on someone right before it popped. You hear the little slap and the howl afterwards.

Crocoduck · 7 months

In elementary school my brother stuck one of these on his forehead long enough that it left a big red circle. His teacher freaked the fuck out and sent him to the nurse's office. The nurse then called my mother and explained what happened, only to hear my mom laughing hysterically in her face/ear.

Venguard · 7 months

I knew what they were in my mind, even before clicking it :3

ironicinorironic · 7 months

The ones without the little hole were the best, but i think they started putting the hole on it so people didn't put it on their faces

BobbyTrouble · 7 months

ITT: Forehad hickies everywhere.

IBEATUPKIDS · 7 months

G.I. Joe landmines!

DestinedTobeObscure · 7 months

I was at Six Flags Magic Mointain as a kid and we won a bunch for prizes at an arcade and were walking around popping them seeing how high they would get. I popped a hot pink one right into the light with a metal grid and it got stuck. For the next year every time we went back it was still there and I would get so excited. IT'S MY POPPPPPERRRRR!!!!!

thekenturner · 7 months

What are those? Plunger bottoms?

superevie · 7 months

I never knew what to do with these ever. I'd usually put it back in the favor bag and scarf down the Hersey's Kisses in there.

[deleted] · 7 months

Bitches don't know about my novelty whistle.

skinnymatters · 7 months

I have one of these sitting on my desk at work right now. I'm 27. I rather enjoy firing it at coworkers.

Velocity17 · 7 months

I would always put it on my nose, and regret it about 30 seconds later.

theresanapp4this · 7 months

wait for it, here it comes, waaaait pop!

teh__sukc · 7 months

the other kids mom's diaphragms?

thirteenthirty7 · 7 months

I used to lie flat on my back and then launch off the lenses of my glasses.

One time I tried doing it on my eye.

Hurt so fucking bad, I thought sure I went blind for a minute

Science.

empresspenguin · 7 months

I dont know why but I always chewed on these..... and they always got stuck to my cheek. Weirdest sensation my mouth has ever experienced.

Bmelko · 7 months

These were perfect for a nice afternoon of ant genocide. Ah the childhood memories.

lostincleveland · 7 months

Oh man. Hadn't thought about these in so long. I put one on my sister's forehead while she was asleep. It didn't go so well. She spent the next week or so with a perfectly round bruise right in a perfect place that couldn't even be covered with bangs. Never seen anyone so embarrassed. That bus ride the next day was pretty interesting when she had to explain it to all her friends. Probably why they started putting little holes in the top.

The--Plague · 7 months

I always find it difficult describing these to people.. because I cant remember what the fuck they're called!

sunnybrookmusic · 7 months

Female condoms!

BrushieBrushie · 7 months

I never had these as a child. One of my jackass friends had one though, and then she ate it and went to the hospital.

lythandas · 7 months

Oh god I had forgotten these... i loved them...

Merrilin · 7 months

These things were terrifying.

purecanadian5 · 7 months

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure these are the reason 90% of the population is scared shitless of sudden noises.

Also, I used to trap ants and spiders underneath of them and wait till they popped. God, what a horrible way to die.

Scarydoll · 7 months

What the heck are they?

lawlzorz17 · 7 months

i'll never forget the time i broke a light with one of those. i was the coolest kid in 4th grade for like a week.

[deleted] · 7 months

Dafuq are those?

creepypaste · 7 months

We put some of those in the easter eggs for our family's egg hunt, and all I heard after were kids saying "What are dese for??"

:( Kids, they don't know anymore.

SweetLeafKush · 7 months

Children's Diaphragm's with holes in them?

futt · 7 months

When I was about 4 years old I was playing with one of these while taking a bath. The bath tub had a flat porcelain edge.

I couldn't push the thing down on the edge of the tub with my hands, so I got the bright idea to use my chin to push it down.

Since the popper was wet, the toy slid to the left of my face, and I slammed my chin down on the porcelain, breaking open my skin and needing 2 stitches.

tldr; Played with this in the tub and broke my chin open at age 4

MTGandP · 7 months

I don't think this is very funny.

Secret_Agent_Bear · 7 months

Not to be that guy or anything but I believe the phrase you're looking for is "party favor".

On a more relevant note, those things are awesome. I remember the first time I had one of those it disappeared into the black whole under the couch after like two minutes. My dad comes out of nowhere with a paper clip, bends it into shape and makes a paper clip pop

Rynosaur1 · 7 months

Is this funny? Do you really think this is funny?

whydoipoopsomuch · 7 months

Isn't that a woman's contraception device?

julijet · 7 months

BrenFar · 7 months

cervical caps?

zee83 · 7 months

A diaphragm?

ceeeh · 7 months
