Why isn't Power Rangers or Playstation/Nintendo 64/SNES/whatever console on this list? Those, Hot Wheels, WWE action figures and Lego were the only toys I played with.

Yep, I never did have a bike growing up, never have ridden on one either. No interest in that at all, so why bother learning to do it.

With crayons, I always used pencils to do art work. I preferred greys to the colour so I used just straight pencils to draw with (it does kind of hold true in my decorating style now too oddly enough).

I did grow up poor, but that was not the reason. I just never had a real interest in toys, more so interested in reading and viewing art of varying forms than that. New ideas and perspectives were always the thing I found most interesting. My parents hated trying to find things for me at christmas/birthdays. Biggest pain in the ... to things buy for because none of it interested me whatsoever.

I was a bit odd.

Fair enough. Just suprised. Can't imagine being a boy and not knowing how to ride a bike.

Buddy that's been here since August was able to connect the two posts together and figure it out without having to know the meme?

Agreed with Lego. Should be #1 on every list. I was just out with a co-worker and she bought a gas station duplo set for her kid. It was really tough leaving it in the car as I wanted to bring it in the office and play with it.
