In retrospect, what was the most stupid thing you did as a kid?
 

I mean something that you look back on and think "Why the fuck did I do that? It could have gone SO wrong!"

when I was about 12 or 13, we used to climb over the fence to my old primary school and lark about in the playground. This was obviously before primary school had to have 10-foot barbed-wite-topped fences and armed sentries on every corner, so getting in was a piece of piss.

13 years old, it's all about proving yourself, so when my old friend Ronnie (dead now, heart attack, aged 35. Miss him terribly) came along. He was a little more devil-may-care than the rest of us, so obviously, the first thing he did was get up on the roof of the school and goad us to follow. Of course we had to, so there's 4 of us climbing like mountain goats all over the sloping tiles of this quite large old building..



So Ronnie finally challenges me to walk along the very top of the roof. Obviously, I'm trepidacious about the task, but there's 4 other boys plus a couple of fit girls watching, so I do it anyway, walking along the ridge tiles at the centre of the picture. They're not as wide as I thought, so it was like walking along a telegraph pole with less grip.

There are probably more incidences, but that's the only one that really stuck in my mind, mainly because I always look back and marvel at how much of a moron I was for doing it.

That's me, who's next?

^^^ translator please???
:D

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, i climbed a fence, blah, blah, blah, trepidacious.

Most of the shit I did, I did in Jr High. I tried to better myself when I got into High School, when I realized I wanted to get out of my shithole town.

So these are all Jr High
-Was skateboarding on a tennis court, got thrown out. Went back later that night took all the light bulbs out of the scoreboard and broke them on the tennis court.

-Would go out at night and throw snowballs at cars as they drove by. Pretty sweet until one car chased us around a neighborhood for over an hour.

-Stole pretty much every baseball card I owned.

thats all I can think of for now.

FAAAAKKK why did I come in here....:( It was the stupidest thing ive ever done..:D ;)

are you a child? :D

ran from the cops.. oh wait. I was 27 the last time.

edit; and that was pretty smart considering the impending charges.

at least I spelt it correctly

Yesh...especially on the weekend. :D

in england everything is spelled 2 different ways. or so i hear:rolleyes:

SO I GOT THAT GOIN FOR ME...WHICH IS NICE

MWAHAHHAHAHA! :D Fix the FUCKIN REP ALREADY. +10 for Foetus! :D

Threw a tire onto a dark highway when I was 16. We thought it was pretty funny until somebody actually hit the fucking thing. There was first a boom, then alot of screeching, and finally some extended cursing. We were hiding in an arroyo underpass, shitting our pants when that tire came flying back into the ditch accompanied with one final "MOTHERFUCKERS!". I hate that I did that.

I hate that you did that, but your repentance will do for now

was it your car that he hit?

nah, unless he's got a VERY good throw

I used to put coins on the train tracks while the train was going by. It took good timing and was fucking stupid.

couldnt you just fucking leave them there and come back later?

+25 rep. still fucking giggling

Playing with matches in the bathroom which was locked so I would get caught. I got the curtains and linens but my folks broke in and put it out before it could get to the structure. I was then child abused.

thats what we did. left our quarters and then came back later to get them.

it was a bitch trying to buy a can of coke with them afterwards!

I lived in a fraternity house for four years, so I did plenty of shit as a kid. Sadly, most of it I can't remember. :D

One thing I can remember is doing a cannon ball from the roof of the house into a dunk tank. Not well thought out.

Poured gas across the road on a sharp turn, and waited for the cars to get near and then lit it. I loved doing that.

Too many cases of vandalism to count, and of course one of my personal favorites that I still have the scars from is trying to steal a manhole cover, carrying it across a field and hitting the barb wire fence.
I had the cover held tight to my chest and it was a single wire at thigh level.
I hit it, and stretched the fence, dropped the cover and was slung back off of the wire, I had about 10 little holes where the barbs went straight in and back out.

(Didn't get caught, but my mom wondered why I was limping for a few days).

glad you waited a whole year trolling this place waiting for the perfect thread to pop your first post

homo

That almost scared me away from posting for fear of ridicule but then I realized I don't give a fuck.

I've done tons of shit that was stupid. But there is a thin line between fun and stupid. Lifes boring always being safe and smart.


...and don't get the internet police to backtrace me...that's some serious shit.:rolleyes:


I was a graffiti writer...so there are tons of stories in that, was arrested once, but one time I climbed to the middle of a bridge along a steel girder during a lightning storm.

I went over a diversion dam on a river in a cheap walmart raft and had to be rescued by the fire department.

I robbed a house. Among stealing a lot of other things.

To celebrate my birthday one year I robbed some guy walking down the street and called his mom from his phone to explain why her son was lying in the street. - Still feel bad for that.

Shattered my wrist skateboarding in the rain and broke my jaw riding my bike when I knew the chain was fuckin up.

I blacked out from drinking, walked into my room where my girlfriend was sleeping, stood over her and pissed a nights worth of alcohol all over her. Supposedly then she threatened me with a butcher knife.

Maced a hippy with spraypaint and kicked his friend in the head.

Got a slutty college cheerleader pregnant and then was pissed when she had an abortion. Feels good not havin a kid now.


Do I win? What's my prize assholes.:D

No. You were a toy. you were never a writer. stop playing.

Not playing. I got down. Out of all the things you could have cracked a joke on all you do is question my credibility in graffiti?? You could never have done what I did, but whatever sucka, thats why the streets speak on it not bustas like you.

what crews did you run with? i was all over NYC, kid. I fell off 10 years ago and I still have ups. stateyourname kid

Holy zonkies. Your street cred is certainly tough if you can speak of it on the internets. I suggest you prove your mettle in the only way the streets respect - break dance battle!

I watched a documentary on graffiti...does that count?

I spray painted my car once, quite the whiskey tango move.

i painted a house once

cees is my boy. Tony Danza if you know the kid.

Tony Danza from Whos the boss?

I'm from California and have never heard of any of those crews what so ever so maybe I should just call you out as the toy. I have shit still runnin that's over five years old. New York doesn't have the buff that the westcoast has, totally different ballgame.

Is this you? hahaha...typical New York boring ass style.

Yeah. This is so much more what I see you doing gangstar:

You got me homeboy...I loved puttin your moms name and number up in the bathroom stall. Ever wonder why you had so many "daddies"...sorry about that...bitch was a slut.
