Has any one of you been in a ball pit?

Bazinga.
 
As a child, I would always go into the ball pits at McDonald's or wherever else my mom took me that had them because I found so much treasure, most of it completely disgusting in retrospect, when I would feel around on the mesh floor.

Being inside them always felt strange to me.... hard to move in, and you're covered in that "plastic chair static field" sensation all over, especially if you were gross/oblivious enough to fully submerge yourself in the sea of germ-riddled, toddler snot-encrusted plastic.

I'm suddenly feeling very nostalgic. Not that they were ever "relaxing"... more like "trippy".

I must of always lived in the poor part if town because our McDonalds only ever had a slide, but Chuck-e-Cheese had a ballpit. Which is even more gross if you think about it because of greasy pizza hands and face rubbing all over the balls. :sick: I tended to stick to Skeeball anyway. :D I was too shy to go in the ballpit with other stranger kids.

If you ever have a chance to see Patton Oswalt do standup comedy, you should see him, sistasheila. You defintely know English well enough to follow (I noticed you watched it dubbed) and he is hilarious. :thumb:
