I thought that was some super high tech toilet roll holder in the first 3 pics. Part of me still hopes it is..
- Simon Wicks
I can neither confirm nor deny that is the case, Simon.
- Louis Gray
I Googled it, now i know what it is. I win the internet :)
- Simon Wicks
Super cute!!!
- Beau Liening
and this is not a specific to twins phenomena nor does it matter if girl or boy. ;)
- Jim Turner
Hey a hepa filter! lol Sometimes I want to forget "responsible" and play in the toilet paper too. :)
- Heather
Man, they're cute!
- Ayşe E.
lets see a video of which one can unroll the roll faster
- Allen Stern
Thanks Ayse, and Beau. We're spoiled. :)
- Louis Gray
they're so adorable!
- Valeria Maltoni
OK, time to get out the water buckets and brushes, and let them "paint the fence" My Uncle pulled this on us little tykes, and when we got to the end of the fence, we had to start over! Finally caught on when we caught my uncle laughing on the back porch! Very cute twins!
- Nicholas Chase
Too Cute!

WOOHOO TEEPEE the house!

I've had a couple of puppies that do the same darn thing! God loves toilet paper, that's why all the children of the world find it so fun!

hahaha I remember those days.

I had tons of those!!! I get that "excited about going back to school" feeling just looking at it.
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
I had one in red.
- Mary Carmen
oh yeah!
- BEX
Hahah. YEP.
- Rochelle
Dude. Trapper Keeper was life.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I always wanted a new one.
- Yolanda
The beginnings of my office supply fetish, I'm sure. Pens, pencils, folders for each class, narrow rule paper. Those were the easy days and we never knew it.
- CAJ, somewhere else
yes, I had several, and love how I kept everything in order!
- magali
I refused to get a Trapper Keeper because *everyone* had one. Instead I got the off-brand ones and would get a sticker and write "BINDER" on the spine. Yes. 5th grade me was HILARIOUS.
- Admiral Anika
Didn't have a trapper keeper. Also had a knock-off. Didn't really see what the damned diff was though..LOL
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Anika, OMG, you're such a creative rebel! OMG OMG OMG SOOOOOOOO COOL.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Those were awesome. I probably owned like 10 while growing up.

One year, I found some MEGA TRAPPER KEEPER that was also some off-brand but it was twice as large, twice as nerdy, and I instantly became twice the virgin. School ruled. [crying]
- Akiva Moskovitz
I never had a Trapper Keeper. I was very picky about the way rings in notebooks looked and didn't like the Trapper Keeper rings. I always chose a plain white binder with the clear front that I could slip a sheet of paper into. I then bought several 8.5"x11" sheets of printed paper (like scrapbook paper) to slip in the front as decoration.
- Rochelle
Never got any because they were too expensive. We were po'.
- pea
I had one once, but it only lasted about 2 months. I was rough on a binder. *edited* Still am.
- ha3rvey (wants confit)
I remember the first Vietnamese Nerd who showed up with a D-ring binder. It was like someone discovering fire and showing it off.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I've always liked these. Even today I have a bad habit of buying leather portfolios with way too many pockets.
- Rob Haas
I would get one and never use it. I'd put paper in the folders label them for each class and proceed to not use it the rest of the school year. Total waste of money but I had to have it.
- Give 'Em DBizness
I had that exact one in purple!
- TheDiva Rockin
Can't you just feel the vinyl separating from those brads in the spine? And smell it? And hear the velcro rip? Man that brings back memories....
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
@Lindsay: The sound of velcro separating makes me feel uneasy.
- Brandon
Really? What started that phobia for you? I like that sound. :)
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
The all black ones would get sold out first. Brandon - I am TOTALLY allergic to the sound of velcro, too!!
- Mona Nomura
I never had one. I've never been the most organized person. Maybe its because I never had one? *ponders*
- Derrick
I wanted one of those so bad. I don't think I ever did get one.
- Trish Haley
@Lindsay: I don't know when it started to happen, but now I don't feel alone bc Mona feels the same.
- Brandon
I had some of these too. I still liked the Pee Chee's a little more? Good memories!
- Michael Fidler
I get this uneasy feeling at the pit of my stomach and a not so good tingling up and down my vertebra which finishes with the shakes. I think i am really really allergic.
- Mona Nomura
My friend gets that way when she hears markers on white boards or paper.
- Yolanda
omg we were just looking for these the other day!
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I think mine was purple. LOL! Loved it!
- Gabrielle V
Thats exactly how it makes me feel, Mona.
- Brandon
I heart you for this, Derrick. New Trapper Keepers every year were the highlight of back-to-school prep. /nerd
- Kisha, Well Conditioned
from BuddyFeed
YES!!! This brings back memories. I remember getting a new one every year. I was the anal organized type so I absolutely loved these. It made each new school year extra special :)
- Grant Gochnauer
My red Trapper Keeper had punk band logos all over it. I was such a little Sk8r Grrl back then. lol
- Leslie Poston
I would doodle them on the Trapper Keeper and on the white areas and soles of my Chucks and Vans... no wonder I can't do math to this day...
- Leslie Poston
That time in my life was also my first Sharpie experience. I never did decide whether I preferred the permanence of the Sharpie of the heady smell of the thick black Magic Marker (also, too many comments in a row, sorry!)
- Leslie Poston
We always had the "just as good" kind (to quote my father) with names like "Keeper Trapper" and "Trooper Keeper."
- Noah Belson
I liked the thought of them but they were way too pricey for our budget. Plus I hated how everyone else's looked like crap after the first few weeks: the white edging would tear away from the plastic at the corners and hurt like a mofo if it slid underneath your fingernails.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
@Tina - YES! That was part of the Trapper Keeper experience!
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
Loved those!
- Cheryl Jones
I decidedly hated those... you know the whole conformist lemming thing... such a waste of time all that high and mightiness.
- Sajida H Khan
LOL @Sajida! That's a lot of school-supply angst there! :)
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
We...are...Trapper Keeper. We...are...one.
- Neal Jansons
I broke those all the time.
- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Classic... haha!
- MahoganyGirl.com
Each of us kids got one Trapper Keeper at the beginning of the year. If we took care of it, then great. If it got messed up, then we had to wait until the next school year for a new one.
- Jason, Incognito
ha ha
- Sajida H Khan
holy shit. i LOVED my TrapperKeepers
- iTod Pouch
Old school!
- orionstarr
"I don't wanna wait, for my Trapper Keeper to be ovah!" lol I was one of those kids with the dolphin or tiger folders, the ones with stars and planets in the background, inside the bright colored Lisa Frank imitation binders. The ones that I had at home though were self decorated. @hitchhiker, my school had the duct tape trend too, but it wasn't many kids doing it.
- Heather
oh, lord... unleashed desire for a binder? admin-geek!
- T. Brent, technopeasant
School supplies!!
- Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
My mommie and daddie never bought me a trapper keeper... *sniffles*
- Joel Robert Perez
I never wanted one because I didn't want to lug it around to every class like everyone else did. I preferred just taking one folder to each class. I didn't need something extra to put my folders in.
- Katy S
After an initial "WFT is a Trapper Keeper?" I checked. I'd say we were po', but it's more that it didn't exist when I was going to school... Suddenly feeling very old.
- Walt Crawford
They still exist?!?!? http://www.mead.com/webapp...
- Joel Robert Perez
Mine was completely covered with Garbage Pail Kids stickers - every inch.

Those were so vile. I collected them because everyone else had them.
- Yolanda
Yes... but do you remember "What's grosser than gross?" jokes?
- Ladybug Heather
How velcro and a flap changed notebooks, LOL.

Oh! Oh! i had this very one!
