When I was a boy Grandpa would hand us sharp pencils and tell us to stick them in our eyes.

You had pencils? And they were sharp???

When I was a boy we had to poke our eyes with sticks that we found on the ground and we were glad for them!

What? You had ground to prance around on? We were too poor to have ground or be allowed on ground where I grew up; we had to float around tied to balloons.

What? You had balloons? We were told to go jump in the lake and float there!

...we had to float around tied to balloons.

You had string to be tied to your balloons? You had it easy. We had to hold onto the balloons on our own ...
