Do they still teach this at school?

When I was a kid, if the swings were all taken, then you could stand there and count to 100, and then the kid on the swing would have to get off and let you have a turn.

The worst is when you just sat on a swing and some stupid girl runs up and starts counting by your swing.

I'm like, "for fucks sake, you stupid cunt, there's 7 other people that have been swinging for 20 minutes and you're going to start counting for mine? I just got here! No wonder your daddy left you!"

Anyhoo, do kids still do this?
 
Pretty sure teaching math is forbidden at public schools at this point. Also, never heard of this tradition. You just beat someone up if they don't jump off after the 10th swing and call them a pussy if they didn't jump at the height of the swing.
 
They would get to 100 and then I'd start some argument about how they skipped over numbers. That argument would get me another 100 seconds usually, and then they'd threaten to rat me out to the duty aid (that's what they called the grown up that has to watch us at recess).

Anyhoo, it would take the little brat another few minutes to get the duty aid to come back with them, so I enjoyed all that extra time and then just got off the swing and ran away before the aid got there.

Sometimes just for laughs I'd then return right away and start counting on that kid so they'd have to give me another turn.

They teach genders and stuff, or how to live a vegan lifestyle. Anything like maths or science is forbidden though. I think they said math was racist?
 
Shocked kids still play outside or on playgrounds still. Never heard of the 100 rule, just dont run in front of the swing rule

You should loiter around your neighborhood playground and find out for yourself

Never seen it. Never heard of it.

But, my neighborhood is filled with playgrounds, so there isn't a swing shortage.

Don't remember that. Maybe my elementary school was full of dumbshits who couldn't count that high. Kick ball or kick n catch was the thing.
 
I think the kids is too busy looking at their phones to count to 100 or to be on a swing

You never got to have a turn because you could only count to potato

While we're on the topic of swings, has anyone gone completely around the bar yet?

I've found videos like this, where dudes can do it as long as the chains are replaced by solid bars, but that's cheating IMO. I want to see it done with chains.
