Title: Don't eat the Bonk!
Post by: Blasta_Mazta on August 29, 2005, 12:37:58 PM

i remember my first year in junior high school, it was 1992. i guess that was the year the turboduo :wink: s released. i remember sitting in the lunch room on one of the first days of class. " yo, he's eatin' the bonk!" that was what the they called free lunch in the cafeteria in those days. i checked with highschoolers recently and they didn't know what i was talking about. but it is really funny when i think back to it. every time i heard that, and i heard it alot, i would always think about Bonk and his big head.

don't eat the bonk!

there's even more to it though. their was like this mini-student government like thing at the school. they got up on a microphone in the cafeteria one day and announced they got the school to make a seperate and new free lunch. a little girl standing up there: "we know te students don't like the fre lunch, calling it the bonk--the crowd laughs.

anyway, the new lunch was far better than the bronk, edible. however, we called this new lunch Bonk's Revenge. when i first heard that i was dying laughing. "this sin't the bonk!" "yea, that's Bonk's Revenge." "yo, don't eat that man, thats Bonk's Revenge." there was no escape from the ridicule any student who ate the free lunch at the school cafeteria received. :lol:
