If so, what/who was your person or thing?

Mine was a go-kart, jumping every hill and gap it came across. If there were light poles it would weave in between them, and if there was a guard rail, it would do a grind on it like a skateboard would.

Mairuzu

Mental illness.

Read a book, maybe listened to music. My sis did the license plate game, I never could figure out WTF she was doing.

I slept, but I also imagined I was in a spaceship and there was a massive, epic battle going on around me and that every bump in the road was our shields taking a hit, and we always made it to our destination just in the nick of time to deliver the badly needed medical supplies...

i actually bobbed my head up and down around a drop or a blemish on the window so that my perspective changed so that it would jump over stuff, thus creating something like a videogame.

It was a guy who jumped from shadow to shadow. I still do this.

Sometimes I have him jump from oncoming car to oncoming car.

...that's still using your imagination.

Anyway, I used to always iamgine it was someone jumping from shadow to shadow, or between the cracks in the street, etc.

I would imagine the sound the car would make, reflecting off of the grass as each clump passed (it sounded rather cool in my head big grin ). I would also imagine reaching out and letting the blades of grass hit my hand as I rode past it.


Most of the time, I would just play around with my older brother. We had fun.

I still do that when I'm bored.
When I was a kid, it was a stick men, sometimes a ninja taking down minion, or a red one versus a blue one. Another one was a running man dodging obstacles, my original superhero fighting his supervillains, or even numerous Ultramen fighting their classic enemies.

Mine was always a horse running along side the car confused I don't know why...

BakaXero
thanks now I'll be forever cursed with running figures on a landscape just because of this thread
i used to just count trees and grass or just go "tree, tree, road, tree, cow, grass, cow, cow, grass, tree, grass, grass..."

HoldenCaulfield
I imagined a little fella on a skateboard and did the jumping movements with my fingers. I also used to make little surrounding noises into a sort of tune, to be young, eh?

Rogue Jedi
Sometimes I talked on the CB radio, sumbyatch pile of monkey nuts.

leonheartmm
