This is a 6-panel relatable comic meme that depicts common pointless, random activities that children do for no reason other than fun or boredom during childhood. The six panels each show one classic random childhood activity: 1) a child stretching a chewy red candy over his mouth, 2) running a stick along the gaps of a stair railing to make clicking sounds, 3) climbing up stairs on all fours instead of walking normally, 4) pushing a pin through the tip of a fingernail for the odd sensory feeling, 5) holding a hand under running tap water just to feel the water flow, 6) pressing a light switch back and forth between ON and OFF repeatedly.

This meme features a photograph of interlocking textured roof tiles in three color variants: light grey, deep burgundy, and terracotta.
