Is it cruel to go to a pond in mating season and to catch a male toad and to
wear it as a watch, because they clutch everything when they are in heat?
Things we did in our youth, nowadays kids don't even know how a toad looks like,
because they've never met one in their shooting games!!
Freaking topic led me to that freaking question. Freaky, hm?
Yeah, the good old times!

  Is it really that important, in modern life, to have seen a toad live?

  I haven't seen a giraffe live. That fact doesn't diminish my quality of
life in any way. Why should I care if I haven't seen one?

Do you know that, or are you guessing?

Not the fact to have *seen* a toad. The more important one is to have *felt* one
around your wrist!! It's really a bound to nature. :-)
 You have to have worn one to be a *cool* boy. Or are you afraid of feeling that
glibbery warts? Do it, soon we'll have mating season again!
What did you do (do you do)?

Ugh.
What should happen doing such a nasty thing?
I would pray to the porcelain god, seeing a princess kissing a toad like they do
in some fairytales.
As far as I remember, there was one doing that, I think. Ugh.
Hm, but perhaps... ah no, forget it!

No, it's just one thing kids were doing in times long ago.
P.S. I've never seen a kid rolling a giraffe around its wrist. Show me a link
(regarding to the modern times).

Freaking toads.

I remember a friend of mine caught a tadpole from this little murky 
looking pond. Plopped the thing in its aquarium. We watched it grow 
legs, and arms, and eventually take the form of a frog, then released 
it, probably to an early death as a road pancake. But it sure was cool 
to see it change form over the weeks.

My God. Are you advocating that we all allow a toad to hump our wrists? 
My life is complete without *that* experience, thanks.
