So, what did Russ spend all his allowance on?


When Russ is dragging Ron by his shirt and Ron is pleading with him to not tell on him. He threatens to tell on Russ. I'm pretty sure I know what the answer is but I'm wondering what everyone else thinks.

Probably something too inappropriate to mention in a Disney family flick.

Probably a new attic window for the Szalinskis.

What does every teenage boy spend his allowance on?

Dragon Ball Z action figures? :p

Too early, pal. This film came out in '89, and the Dragon Ball Z crap didn't become popular until the late 90s.

saving up to buy new technology?

heroin.

Even the most primitive society has an innate respect for the insane.

I was going to say Steroids.

I'm guessing dirty magazines from a friend's older brother. Or he blew it at the arcade.

reply

maybe a baseball bat or a baseball glove

My money's on the arcade. Many kids were like that in the 80s and 90s with their allowances.

reply

Probably porn. A shy guy like him, I can relate.

He was obviously on crack, and your mother sucks six for crack!

Weed, he was a slacker, quitting football and wanting to relax rather than lift weights or help load the truck.


\o/ STEVE HOLT!

It was probably Playboy magazine.

The finest adult content known to man... is the obvious answer. It could've been something else, maybe he spent it all somewhere he was not allowed to go to (or as already mentioned, blowing it at the arcade is not out of the realm of possibilities). Anything.
