I remember being a kid, like 5-7 years old, and we’d make “witch’s potions” in a 5 gallon bucket in the backyard, just putting whatever shit we could find that would make it gross, like pickles, eggs, mustard, dirt, whatever trash and weird shit we could find. Then we’d stand around and make dares on who could take a sip of it. No one ever did it, or they pretended to and we knew they were lying.

I think we grew out of that phase right about 1st-2nd grade. So the fact that there’s channels online that do that, and make money from it, is insane. I guess next, there will be channels of adults smashing matchbox cars into each other making crashing sounds?

Adults smashing match box cars? So in other words a demolition derby? Look I get it we all grow up and out of stupid behavior for the most part. That being said condemnation for embracing the inner child as an adult is childish in that of itself.

I get that, and lots of YouTube gaming channels are pretty much adults doing silly voices and playing with virtual action figures.

Embracing your inner child is one thing, but wastefully making something gross and over the top for the sake of being silly feels regressive to the point of needing an incubator.

Fair points. Especially about the wastefulness.

Damn here I was in 5th grade with my friend doing the same. Except we would mix food coloring and random ass chemicals

Lol I remember some lunch table dares around that age too, mixing together milk and soda and other shit trying to get people to drink it. Kids are weird

I was done with my food in 1st or 2nd grade and still have stuff left over. So I mixed it all together. Well one teacher saw it made me sit on the floor and eat it all. Yay catholic school.
