Waaaaaaait. What do you mean you "believe" in Santa and the East Bunny way too long? Did something happen to them?

I love this list. I love this list. I love this list.

I'd add a few things.

Nurse Shoes
The noise you make when you pass people that looks like aliens. (we were kids, and we were mean)
Centerville Rosebud is more than just a street.

LOL on #15!!! Why were you scared of your grandpa? And poo poo undies? WTH is that? Actually, I'm not sure I WANT to know.

Thanks, that was fun. Even though I don't know what most of it is. But that's part of the fun, right?

Let's just say my Grandpa took skiing VERY seriously. He had a no quit attitude which frankly was terrifying. The whole poo poo undies/dirty black underwear is what my dad used to say to us to make us laugh when we were sad/angry/scared.
