The old ones like singing "100 bottles of hooch on the wall" repeatedly until Mom goes berserk? Or saying "He's on MY side of the car!" repeatedly until Dad goes berserk? Or beating on your brother until both Mom and Dad go berserk?
Nothing wrong with those at all.

Hey, I got your rear seat entertainment option right here.

"Mom, he touched me!"
"He's looking at me!"
"Are we there yet?"

Our mother distracted us once by the simple method of asking us to define what the word "touching" meant as both active and passive activities. Bonus points were awarded for rationalizing the offensiveness of each activity.
It wasn't all intellectual, though. She loved puns.

Puns are great entertainment ... tho they might well interfere with any romantic inclinations ... unbridled laughter (or projectile vomiting) frum a co-occupant of the "back seat region" has a way of detumescing sum folks ...

I am surprised how many thought of the back seat as a childhood place. My thoughts did not go back that far. Real teenage entertainment.

$1600 for two 8 inch screens? DVD players that size are under $100 each new, or about $20 at yard sales, etc. Of course they do have to be strapped on to the back of the seats, or have your dog chew holes for them.

Yes, Ralph. But, if you keep your Caddy a couple hundred years, you pay for the cost of replacement batteries.

Backseat entertainment was something totally different in my day.

Peggy, Charlotte, Geneva, Phyllis.....and a couple I forgot.....really good backseat options back in the day.

Ah, if only it really were an arms race. There'd be one fewer Prius-driving taxi bozo in town, this morning. Prat.

In my day, you had to bring your own joystick to the backseat.
