The Black Death
Our festering boils
Living in our own filth
Not finishing our homework because we spent the night burying most of our family
Studying by candlelight and the stench of our own vomit
“My hovercraft is full of eels.”
I remember…
The jousting
Getting laid in a hog wallow
Swordfights
Merry men
but most of all, I remember the Religious persecution, those were the days. And we should all praise mighty Allah fo… <ACK> crackle
Where’s my side of FUN!?
Kisses!

LOL.
Just what I needed while being bored here at work.
Burning witches was always fun. And torturing the heretics. And I really loved getting the sh*t kicked out of me by some rich landowner because I asked for some table scraps. Ahh, the good old days.

Getting to see that merchant daughter’s shift
Six hour Mass
…but what I’ll mainly remember was the rats.
“I guess one person can make a difference, although most of the time they probably shouldn’t.”
Prom getting cancelled due to another stupid Crusade. Boy, did that shit get real old.

Warren ZevonHey you guys, remember when the Widow Smythe got turned into a frog?
That was me.
No kidding! I turned her into a frog! My Aunt Elspeth was teaching me some really cool stuff (she said not to tell anyone, but it’s been long enough now), and I wanted to try it out. I was walking to market one afternoon, and the Widow started yelling at me about the length of my dress (had a little too much ankle showing), and well, I just got a little mad. So poof, frogsville.
The Great Apothecary Shoppe Explosion was me, too. That was an accident! I swear!
This space blank, until Wally thinks up something cool to put here.
I always liked the grime and the stench of unwashed bodies, and sleeping six to a moldy pallet (what “bed”?), and the way the pig wallow turned into a stinking, festering, putrescent mire after a rain… :::getting out old scrapbook for more memories:::

This has been your offical Holy Grail post into this thread. Thank you.
DON PEDRO: Your silence most offends me, and to be merry best becomes you; for, out of question, you were born in a merry hour.

I remember when every teenager in the village wanted to be a troubadour. Every woodshed had a minstrel troop practicing in it. I stole a pig to buy my first lute. I spent 3 weeks in the stocks, but it was worth it.
getting jealous when one of your friends got an apprenticeship…
Trying on your dad’s armour and falling over and having to wait 4 hours til he came in from the fields to help you back up…
nonstandard spelling was accepted, winning the spelling bee because the way you spelled it “could be pronounced that way”…
