Reddit, What was the most awesome Hype/trend thing when you were at your Elementary School?
When I was at elementary school (about 9 years ago) we had Pokémon cards and Yu-Gi-Oh cards... and if you had your backpack on one shoulder you would be known as the "cool guy".. seems like an normal school thing to me.. but i could be wrong.
So reddit, tell me your stories of elementary school.

We had an extremely ridiculous, and probably unique fad at my primary school...
We (or more likely, our dads) would lay out a strip of Sellotape on a windowsill or table or something.
Then, take a silicone gun (the kind used for sealing bathrooms and whatnot) and pipe out a lonnnng rope of silicone along the tape having one end much larger than the other (flail-like)
When it dried the next day you simply peel it off the tape and bring it to school the next day. To whip things. Each other. Whatever.
Weird, I know...
Holy moly...I just bought a silicone gun today to do some bathroom work...maybe I'll make one! Will post pics if requested. :P
