UnfairRepresent 10/28/25 4:35:36 PM #1:	Feels like "You're not allowed to go outside and have to stay in your room with all your stuff" hits different in 2025 compared to 1975. If anything "You have to go outside and do stuff not involving your phone." would be the punishment. --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair! http://i.imgur.com/yPw05Ob.png <cite>UnfairRepresent posted [p:986867301] in Does groun...

My dad would hide all of my power cords and chargers (and batteries back when I had Game Boys that still ran on them). Still having the physical device but only being able to stare at it and not use it really made being grounded feel a lot worse. --- https://i.imgur.com/PmF1p9q.jpg <cite>Calwings posted [p:986867392] in Does groun...

Bugmeat 10/28/25 4:54:56 PM #11:	Losing accessto fun devices was always part of being grounded for us, along with extra chores to "help with the boredom". I didn't get to play my Nintendo or go online. We were able to watch tv still, but only if someone else was already watching it. If I were a kid today I would have lost access to everything that kids today have. --- Next week on Reviewing Men's Restrooms with Corey Feldman, we'll be checking out the restrooms at the Home Depot on 4th street.
