Here are some of the items that were used in some way or another to administer some pain in my youth. Whether it was disciplinary or an angry friend or sibling.
Disclaimer : My parents/ grandparents always were more upset after I got my spanking so it was done with love and teaching in mind. I do believe there are A LOT of youths that need a good smack nowadays. What comes to mind is all the news we see of the youths at the "MALLS" and posting on youtube of the violence they are imposing on others. Maybe if they got a good beating they would realize that the punishment is worse than what they are proposing to do. The "ANTI-SOMA" has a good post on this today. Although she does't mention spanking per se, I would venture out on a limb and say it would help to curb these animals.
So here are some of the items that issued pain back in the day.....

I have had run in's with all of those as a kid.
ReplyDeleteMan those Hot Wheel tracks were almost as bad as peach tree limbs.
I used to take tennis balls and fill them about 1/3 full with black powder and go fishing as a teenager.
The good ol days.......
We used to have trench warfare (WBTS) with our Red Ryder's. My father was blind in one eye as the result of the same.:)
ReplyDeleteGrew up before some of those. My father was a traditionalist: he used a belt or a switch (willow, not electrical - which reminds me of a joke that's NSFW).
ReplyDeleteChris.. this site is NSFW so please do share your joke :D
ReplyDeleteWe all need a good laugh!
Cheers!
I got the switch, belt, and the wooden spoon and I don't think I saw a pair of scissors on your list. But yep one of my sisters got mad at me growing up and a pair of those barely missed my head. Good thing cause she would have got her ass beat if they hit me :)
ReplyDeleteMan my mom would use a wooden spoon on me, one day she smacked me with it and it broke, well I laughed and said" so whatcha gonna do now?..." Let me tell you...famous last words...she grabbed a larger one and proceeded to beat my ass all over the house with it.
ReplyDeleteMom broke her favorite spoon on me too.
ReplyDeleteAs far as BB guns go- did you know kitchen matches are just the right size to go down the barrel...and they light when they hit things.
Did you ever see those really big wooden spoons and forks that were used for kitchen wall decorations? When I was 12 my mom broke the big spoon over my back on the third whack. Then she took off her shoe and proceeded to beat the hell out of my head with that, screaming the whole time that the fork now looked ridiculous hanging there all by itself. I’m adopted into an Italian American family, I’m Irish. At the age of 12 I was 6’3” tall. My adoptive mom was 5’1”. The whole time this is going on she’s standing on a kitchen chair. I was laughing my ass off and the more and harder I laughed the harder and faster she hit me with that friggin shoe. She finally gave up when her arm got tired. God I miss her.
ReplyDeleteAnd just think.... these days we have to pay someone to do stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteI mean, that's what I hear...
Other than the hockey stick and lawn darts, I've had experiences with all those items.
ReplyDeleteWhile the Hot Wheels track made for a decent ass whooping, you haven't been beat until you have been wore out with a Tupperware Cake Strap. Holy Shit! That brings back some memories...
My Mom would slip off a sandel and just start swinging around the back seat. Mom beatings were the worst.
ReplyDeleteI mother used to spank me with a long handle, plastic hair brush which was about 18inches in length. Finally, it broke on my rear end one day and my mother said "That's the last spanking you are going to get, since it doesn't do any good anyway!"
ReplyDeleteSince you asked:
ReplyDeleteA little boy was bugging the heck out of his momma one day while she was trying to clean the house. (Even my jokes are old.) So she told him to go down the block to where a new house was being built and watch the construction for an hour or two.
He comes back home after a few hours, and Momma asks him, "Was it fun watching the men build a house?" He replied, "Yes, momma, and I even learned some stuff." "Like what?" she asked.
"Well (holding his little arms out about 3 feet), this is a yard, this (now 12 inches) is a foot, this is an inch, and this (holding his thumb and forefinger just barely apart) is a cunt hair."
"That's nasty language! Go up to your room and wait until your father comes home!" she commanded.
Well, when the man of the house arrived, his wife (having an attack of the vapors) tells him that his son used horrible language to her, so bad that she couldn't repeat it. So Dad went up to his son's room and asked him what happened.
The boy described his visit to the construction site, repeating the descriptive measurements. His father, outraged, said, "That's unacceptable! You're going to be whipped - go get me a switch!"
The boy replied, "Fuck you, I'm not an electrician!"
Chris....LMAO!! good one :)
