STUPID THINGS YOU DID AS A KID

In the fall, we would load up my entire truck bed with pumpkins from a pumpkin patch. Then we would drive real slow through town until we had about 10 cars behind us. We'd then go up what was called Warner Hill, floor the truck, and drop the tailgate. My god, seeing a wall of pumpkins fly out of the truck and bounce down the hill all over other cars....there must have been 50 pumpkins...:biggrin:

Good times must have been had by all.

I was at a party in HS that was busted by the cops, and we were all told to wait in the basement until they got our names and let us go. After waiting a while, and being an impatient drunken teenager, I asked one of the cops if they could take my information and let me go. He told me that I needed to understand that they had a process in place and I needed to wait until it was my turn. I then replied to him that he was the one that needed to understand that I had a curfew and had to be home in 10 minutes so they needed to take my information or I was leaving any way. I ended up in the back seat of police car.

While I was waiting, I could see through the windows that one of my buddies was walking up to each cop car and opening the rear doors. The windows of all the cars were fogged up, and he couldn't see into them otherwise. He was almost to my door when the cops came out. I remained in the back seat of the last police car he needed to check.

After taking my information at the police station, they needed to call my mom to pick me up so that they could release me. They called her at a party, but my mother didn't go to the phone... she simply asked the person to just tell her what the caller wanted. The guy then yelled accross the room that her son was being held at the police station for under-age drinking and needed to be picked up. My mother had been talking with my HS principal and superintendant (I was subsequently kicked off of the wrestling team for the consumption of alcohol).

When she came to pick me up, she came in and gave me a pretty stern lecture. I asked the cops if they could release me and let me walk home, as I didn't want to be berated any further. The cop said I either had to go home with my mom, or I had to spend the night in a juvenile detention center. I snidely asked if the detention center would also lecture me when I got there, while looking at my mother. She then gave me a huge slap accross my face. I paused for a second, and then asked if I could press charges for parental abuse.

I couldn't.

It was a long night.

Aren't you going to tell any great stories about how you and your geeko buddies once played Dungeons and Dragons for 16 hours straight?

Two reasons why that won't be posted:

1. the thread asks for stupid things- Not considered stupid at all by Thump

2. you did as a kid - Still ongoing with Thump and his crew

Then maybe he could talk about how his devilish ass once took apart a rubic's cube and put it back together with all the colors lining up. Then, he told everybody that he figured it out. That little rascal....

My friends and I would egg houses...but we would find houses with screen doors and the front door open. When the egg hits that screen, it just smothers the inside of the house with egg.

We would also knock on a door, the knocker would run, and when the door opened, we would light a bottle rocket and aim it at the open door.

Spielman36 and I "borrowed" his grandfathers car while his grandparents were on a trip to Colorado. We rolled through the BK drive through where TRON worked and load up on free food.

My entire life has been littered with embarrassing/stupid moments.

In the movie, Now and Then, one of the characters puts pudding into a balloon in order to stuff her bra. After seeing the movie I thought it was a good idea and I put pudding into plastic baggies and stuffed them into my bra. I then went to the county fair and when someone bumped into me the bags exploded and I had chocolate pudding all over my shirt.

When I was six years old I was playing American Gladitors joust on the wooden bannister in my house. I was wearing socks and my mom had just dusted them so they were really slippery. When I went to swing, my feet slipped and I fell off the banister to the floor below. My dad thought that someone had slammed the front door and came out to investigate and found me on the floor. I was bleeding from my eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. I fractured my skull in four places and was in a coma for two weeks.


Two friends and I went to an away basketball game when I was a JR in highschool. Our team was terrible and we were playing some team out in the middle of no where. We were the only fans that weren't parents and were the only ones sitting in the section. I had brought a whistle with me and we started to blow it periodically. The players thought it was an official's whistle and they'd get really confused. It was hilarious to see the looks on their faces. They'd stop playing/dribbling/whatever and just hold th eball and look around. After about twenty minutes they figured out it was me and I was kicked out.

My best friend and I used to steal road signs. My favorite was Funk Rd.

I threw a dead squirrel at the boy I had a crush on when I was eight years old. Two days later I was riding my bike, White Heat, when he shoved a stick through the front tire. The bike flipped and I flipped with it. When I landed I had a broken wrist and the pedal of my bike stuck in my knee cap. Never throw a dead animal at the one you love, they don't appreciate it.

There are just so many others.

Those are some good ones!

How Dumb?

I don't know if this is stupid but it is ornery. A bunch of us borrowed laundry detergent samples that came to the doors of many houses. We took the detergent to the bank on Morse Road that had a really nice outdoor fountain in front. The fountain sprayed water up in the air and then collected on tiers. We put the detergent (lots) in the fountain. Bubbles everywhere even out to Morse Road.

We also though we had the formula for gunpowder and made humungous smoke bombs. A policeman who lived on our street found out when the smoke bomb exploded and stuff flew everywhere. Unbeknownst to us, he spoke to our parents and made a show of arresting us and put us in the cruiser to the Karl Road police station. Parents made a show of "bailing" us out of jail. Scared the poo out of us. We learned our lesson.:biggrin:

When I was about 4 or 5 I think and my brother was 3 or 4, we lived very primitively in a literal log cabin in Oregon somewhere. We mostly ran wild, no neighbors for miles so our main entertainment was the surrounding woods. I would take my brother walking and if I saw something that looked interesting and edible maybe, I would make my brother taste it first and wait about 15 minutes to see if I could eat it.


A couple years later when we moved to Seattle briefly, we both somehow got up onto the roof of our apartment building which had a tar and gravel surface. We started launching the rocks into the street, hitting parked and driving cars.

On his first day of Kindergarten, my brother skipped school. Stayed away the whole day cuz that's what his big sister (in second grade) did. Our mother was FRANTIC. He walked in to the house about the same time I did and didn't understand why she immediately grabbed him and yelled at "where have you been!?"

In high school, before I got my license, while my parents were in Mexico for a week, I took the car out at night in Reno, NV. I didn't really know how to drive, I couldn't see very well because I needed glasses and it was night (I have astigmatism) and ended up driving on the wrong side of the road somewhere for about a mile. Did NOT get caught. Good thing too, I had people in the car with me.

Others Im sure that I'm not thinking of right now.

I was trying to drive golf balls over my house when I was about 13. This is stupid not only for obvious reasons, but there is a high-traffic road on the other side of the house, and a house on the other side of the road. I hit our back window and shattered it. It's a huge window.

..also hit the side of the house and knocked some siding off. Parents were, once again, happy.

In high school a friend and I would sneak out of the school and go get food. Punishment was 10-day suspension at the time. Wasn't worth it, but we did it for about a month and never got caught. You'd think people would know, since we were walking around with McDonald's and bottles of pop.

A friend of mine had a neighbor that threatened his sister multiple times and hit his dog with his car (looked like he hit the dog on purpose to me, I saw it happen). So me, that friend, and his cousin all drank a ridiculous amount of Mountain Dew one night. We funneled our piss into a container, grabbed the paintball gun, and drank more Dew. We walked to the guy's house and did the following things:

Dumped the container of piss on/in his mailbox and mail.
Pissed on his leather seats (car was unlocked).
Pissed in his gas tank.
Shot his house/car with paintballs.
Put all of our cans in his piss-full car.
This I still do not regret, that guy was a fucking asshole. I wish we could've done more, only without urine.

The friend from the previous story and I went to catch some bait for fishing. Just so happens that where we went to catch bait was surrounded by a field that has buffalo in it. We'd manage to get ourselves trapped by buffalo (there was a place that we could go that the buffalo could not get to, but it was extremely inconvenient and uncomfortable).

Me and some friends had this bad habit of going as fast as possible down a strip of 146. A few times, we passed cops who did u-turns on the road and tried to catch us. Fortunately, we were going 100+ and were never caught.

I threw rocks at a hornets' nest when I was young. Never did that shit again..

I've matured a lot in the last five years. :(

I was walking home from school with two friends, and there's an 18-wheeler trying to make a turn from the shopping area into my town's main street.

My best friend dares me to run under it.

So I do, and as I'm underneath it, the brakes let out and the 18 wheeler starts moving. I make it out to the other side scared to goddamn death.

That was stupid.

Growing up, I played soccer for like 12 years or so. I played on a very good traveling team up until High School. When I was 10 or 11, just before a game started (when you line up to have the ref check the cleats), I kicked a ball towards the sideline. My dad was one of the coaches, and about 20 yards away from where I kicked it, it nails him right in the balls. To this day, he thinks I lined him up and tried to do it.

Me and one of my friends roller bladed to a movie theater about the age of 12. Mind you, it wasn't a very close theater (probably 5 or 6 miles) on a few main roads.

I used to throw the lacrosse ball against the side of my parents garage that is all brick. Except my mom had tons of plants and flowers, and I just mowed all of those down every year. lol

My next door neighbor growing up was an alcoholic named Julio. He used to break into our garage and steal beer out my dad's "Man Fridge." When I was in third grade my best friend and I decided to have our own version of a lemonade stand. We put drops of lemon juice in water and sold it to Julio for a dollar, claiming it was expensive alcohol from France. We made $25 before my mom realized what we were doing.

I dognapped my neighbor's dog. I coaxed the dog out of the yard and replaced it with one of my stuffed animals. I tried to lie and say I was being framed, but I'm a terrible liar and was holding the dog as I said it.

When my mom was asleep on the couch I decided to give her a makeover. I was going through a hair stylist phase and I wanted to show off some of my skillz. I ended up giving her half of a mullet and some bangs. She was not pleased, but dad thought it was funny.

My "play name" growing up was Rainbow Rainbow. I can't believe I actually had/have friends.

For longer than I'd like to admit, I thought oral sex meant making out.
