-Playing a game with a friend, and the friend says "OK now it's my turn" even though he just had a half hour turn and you were only playing for five minutes
-When you're playing games at a friend's house and they hog the good controller and you have to use some third party mad catz stuff. I had one friend who only had one regular ps1 controller and a steering wheel with a d-pad on the base
-Kids on the playground stealing your pokemon when they said they'd trade right back after their haunter evolved

Doing chicken fights on the monkey bars on the playground. Everyone knows that you are trying to pull the other guy down through leg grappling, but the fun comes to an end when some rear end in a top hat decides to swing in as hard as he can and kick you in the chest.

That reminds me of another one - arguments over the rules of hopscotch. It's hopscotch - it shouldn't be that hard to decide how it's played.

That one kid;
"I get to go first, It's my house."
"I am the guest, I get to go first."
Why did we invite him again? I know lets just hit him with sticks again.

Also the kid who snitches on you, when you gang up and hit him with sticks. What a jerk.

Also the loving Gingerbread Man in Candy Land. I was 5 spaces away from Candy Castle you rear end in a top hat. There is a reason that card goes 'mysteriously missing' first.

That one motherfucker (and it was always the same motherfucker) who ended up with a perforated eardrum and now nobody is allowed to throw snowballs.

Also when you'd have water fights and there'd be one poor kid who brought a squirty bottle that was formerly used for some domestic cleaning product and he'd end up either staining everyone's clothes or giving everyone rashes.

Playing football and loving Chuckie Izumo's idiot dog would get free, poo poo on the playing field and then try to eat the ball. gently caress that dog. I was so glad when it got killed by a car.

Ehhhh?
Playing Goldeneye with the spergy kid down the street that would only ever play with proxy mines because he went and figured out every single spawn point and where you would spawn depending on where you died in a level. If you got killed first it was best to just leave because there would be a proxy mine at your feet every time you would spawn back into the game.

Of course if he died first, you might as well go home because he would just restart the game saying that it didn't count.

Also, sore thumbs after playing StreetFighter 2 all weekend.

Summertime edit: That one kid who would only have a squirtgun fight at his house because he was the only one allowed to use the hose.

Pausing the game when your friend was in mid-combo.

After defeating my brother in Tekken 3, it used to drive him insane when I kept punching his character after the KO, before they collapsed. Needless to say, I constantly did it until he refused to play anymore.
