I don't know about my parents, but when I was younger I was afraid of Crocodile Dentist and Don't Wake Daddy. I still played them but I was always afraid of the jumping motion.

My mom hated that game Operation. She didn't like for us to play it because she thought it was too nerve racking.
My dad pretty much hated anything that made noise or got in his way.

My cousin and I used to play Jenga a lot, and I remember a time we were doing it on the kitchen floor for some reason. Anyway, when the tower toppled over, the pieces hitting the floor were loud as HELL and my Grandma nearly jumped out of her skin. It sounded like somebody was doing a drive-by on the house. She was a little pissed off for a few minutes afterwards, too. :lol:

I don't really remember when did I had those toys that really urked my parents. Maybe in my older ages, I've play chess against my bro and mother, and that really made them shocked that we made tricky things.

I was never allowed to have one of those pregnant Barbies when I was little. I don't know why but my mom never wanted me to have one. It was so cool though, because Barbie would have twins and stuff. lol.

I recall my mom threatening to throw my gameboy out the car window on several occasions.

well lol,

my dad broke the stick that got my cakes out of my easy bake oven...he slammed it off the floor he was either mad that i didnt clean my room or that i made better cakes with a light bulb than he did in the oven....

me and my brother were banned from our "my kid brother" and "my kid sister" dolls for a while because my mom was across the alley and we were alone in the house and me and him got into a fight and he was dangling "my kid sister" doll out the window and my mom from across the alley thought it was my REAL little sister and she came running over and as soon as she reached the yard he dropped it and i started crying and my mom thought it was my sister crying cause she was dropped out of the window....im surprised she didnt have a heart attack it was sooooo funny

and we couldnt play with that ninja turtle slime anymore because it ended up everwhere :(

:rofl: I can just imagine this. :lol:

Another game my father hated when we played it was "Hands Down" We had to slap the hands in the game and he would just do a nervous jump. :lol: I guess we should've played it when he wasn't around. :lol:

I was scared to death of Operation. I still can't play it.

Same here.

I dont think there were any games/toys my parents couldnt stand. Even the loud obnoxious things... like the xylofone, or Brain Warp, or Bop It... my parents would play those w/us, we'd have competitions.

Ha, yeah. I can just picture Christmas at my cousins house with 6 person Bop-It tournaments...mostly with adults playing.

Oh, yeah.... and the "Guess Who?" game always intrigued me. It had some of the scariest-looking faces I'd ever seen! :eek:
