Nerf (trademarked in capitals as NERF) is a toy brand created by Parker Brothers and currently owned by Hasbro. The acronym NERF stands for "Non-Expanding Recreational Foam". Most of the toys are a variety of foam-based weaponry, but there are also several different types of Nerf toys, such as balls for sports like football, basketball, and others. The most notable of the toys are the dart guns (referred to by Hasbro as "blasters") that shoot ammunition made from Nerf foam. Since many such items were released throughout the 1970s, Nerf products often feature bright neon colors and soft textures similar to the flagship Nerf ball. The slogan frequently used from the 1990s advertising until now is "It's Nerf or nothin'!".
Nerf foam is made from a solid, spongy cellular material. To produce it, polyester resin reacts with another compound in the presence of CO2 from another reaction. It is this gas that creates open pockets within the polyurethane that, in turn, make the material soft and light.

In a series of flashbacks we see the young Dito, his parents, his four closest friends, and his girl Laurie, as each tries to navigate family, race, loyalty, sex, coming of age, violence, and wanting out. A ball falls onto the subway tracks at a station, small things get out of hand. Can Dito go home again?

It's like you never forget
The way it's got to be
It's nobody's concern
Cause they don't know how it burns
When you're not here with me
So am I wrong or up my way in the sky
Cause I can never deny
These feelings
How can I ever stop
When I don't want to give up
This is my reason
Reason (repeat)
Cause I get you, I get you
And you get me, you get me
It's that simple, It's that simple
Don't matter what we are
Cause we don't ever fall
When the puzzle connects
It's like you never forget
The way it's got to be
It's nobody's concern
Cause they don't know how it burns
When you're not here with me
So am I wrong or up my way in the sky
Cause I can never deny
These feelings
How can I ever stop
When I don't want to give up
This is my reason
