And American culture accelerates its circular tour of the drain.

Some students -- and these are friends -- play "bloody knuckles," which involves slamming their knuckles together as hard as they can.
Good to hear this schoolyard tradition is still alive and kicking; with any luck the "rub an eraser on the top of your hand until it bleeds" gag is still around as well.

I hate so many things about this century...

Fucking Americans, why are you losing the common-sense battle?

And yet, I bet their football team still slaps each other on the asses constantly.

See, I'd be the asshole student that walked around shaking EVERYONE'S hand upon first meetings.

In a suit.

Totally part of my childhood too. We also did "blood brothers/sisters", where you literally cut open your hand and mashed it with your friends' cut open hand. Then AIDs reared its ugly head and put an end to that little game.

My version of the "bloody knuckles" game involved taking turns flicking each other's knuckles until someone either a) pussed out and quit, or b) started to bleed. The best thing about it was that it usually became as painful for the flicker as it was for the flickee. So many memories...

Kilmer Middle School? Surely Val would be more progressive.
