What were you like when you were 8?

[Dazmi]

I was obsessed with getting a dog or cat, addicted to TV (the shows were crappy but I was 8), and fighting with my brother 24/7

[StoneColdSoul]

Having gay sex.

I was nerdy, very virgin-like, and in my opinion a social failure. But I've changed so much, it's scary to look in the mirror sometimes.

I can second that gesture.

[Shawn]

Same way I am now...

[PoJoX]

I had a very small penis.

And how the fuck can you be virgin- like and a social failure at eight?

well, I went to a strict catholic school, dressed like a douche bag, did what I was told and didn't think for myself. Their was no way I was going to be laid at that rate.

Becaus it's pertinent that you have sex when you are eight years old.

[Jefroid]

i would just go around breaking shit and being a fuck up, basically what i do and am now

[porter9]

I was a nudist and ran out the streets naked making monkey noises.

[ShitOnAStick]

I swear I wasn't crazy or anything. But I was super curious about death and would always want to die to see what it was like. But then I realised I wanted a pet rabbit, so I couldnt die until I fulfilled that desire. Funny enough, I never got around to owning a pet rabbit ever. I think that might have saved me a short life.
Altho I could socialize amazingly at school, I didnt bother out of it, and just sat by myself with my toys most of the day and did my own thing, day dreaming and thinking about what death might be like. And then I drew some monsters out of my brothers D&D monster manual book.

I dont think I was a typical 8 year old.

[Xookie]

Pokemans.

[SUPA-SAMOAN000]

I played a shitload of video games and had lots of friends :D

[Peaceblossom]

I was a fatty.

I can't believe how absolutely unhealthy I was. I would eat cream cheese out of the fridge whenever I got hungry. And whenever I was bored I was hungry.

I would eat 4-5 raw hot dogs and shit like that.

I'm so happy I'm not like that any more.

[Grammar-Nazi]

That was when I went through phase of making 'movies' with my friends with my cheap video camera I had. It's fun going back and watching them.

[Kuro]

Exactly the opposite of what I am now.

I was energetic, couldn't sit still, loved to be outside, and had plenty of friends.

Oh how things change.

[Gagsy]

I think when I was 8 my mum got me this silly boys haircut, and a girl in school actually said to me - "Are you a boy in a skirt?" =(

Rough times.

Also, I can't remember much else to be honest, I sucked at spelling and most anything in school, but I was the 2nd person in the class who was allowed to use a pen to wirte with not a pencil ^_^

[Frostbreath]

I was a real emo kid listening to all sorts of metal while my all my friends listened to Britney Spears. I was ahead of my time :P

It's all electronic now btw.

ok, the question is, at 8 years old how can you not look very virgin like?

[Bantilan]

having sex

[Kidiri]

Like the average Newgrounder: ignorant and bad at spelling.

[NightmareV3]

masterbuting 24 hours a day o.0!

[Gunter45]

I was very active. I'd play football and soccer every chance I got at recess and I'd explore the neighborhood with the kids who lived around me after my mom picked me up from the after-school program the school offered. I'd draw and joke around a lot at the after-school program with my friends and we'd get to go outside and play on the huge playgrounds my school had. I liked to keep to myself a lot, though, I still do. I played a lot with my friends, but I also liked to go off and do my own thing a lot, too. I was a little bit of a bully, but it wasn't excessive. If one of my friends did something stupid I'd make fun of him, but the same happened to me, it's how we played. Some of the kids couldn't take it, but that's just how we were, it wasn't malicious, it's just how we conversed with each other.

It makes me realize that all of this bullshit about how kids need to be nice to everyone is softening kids up and making them unable to deal with criticisms and jabs. It's all part of being a person, embracing our faults, not treading lightly, is how we overcome them. Now we have a generation of people who feel like the world needs to understand and cater to them, as opposed to them going out and earning the respect of their peers.

Bad ass.
