silly putty thumb war
It may sound like a sad statement to some, but it's probably the most fun I've ever had in the back seat of my car. ;)
And since I was a kid, there has been an addition to the thumb war "chant" that I was unaware of. I was of the outdated assumption that after "declaring" thumb war, the intro chant was over and the game was on!
But as long as you have a little kid around to keep you in check, you will be quickly caught up on the important details that you are missing out on as an adult.
The current version goes something like this ...
1,2,3,4 I declare a thumb war
5,6,7,8 Try to keep your thumb straight
At which point I started cracking up ... the moment was only to be topped by the instant sticking of our thumbs due to the adhesive quality we love so much about silly putty. We knew it was going to happen, and it was still funny as hell. I don't think we stopped giggling for at least 2 minutes.
It was grand.
