Not that it was something to be proud of, but what have you done in your life that your children will never be able to accomplish?

    My first time driving I hit a pedestrian with my sideview mirror. He wasn't hurt but he was pissed.

    Edit: I was only going like 10mph

    I hit a girl in the face with a dodgeball 2 weeks ago. She's 7. She was fine.

    I'm 33 and was allowed to have a non concealed gun in my truck in the parking lot my freshman year of HS.

    (About half the guys deer or bird hunted before school in season).

    in elementary school, i made a finger pistol and pointed it at another kid and said "bang!" without having the local SWAT team called in to arrest me.

    We used to play wall ball and purposely throw racket balls at each other as hard as we could- too violent apparently

    Skipped school to go to the beach- I no longer live in Florida and attendance is always reported online everyday now

    Traipsed through the woods and only had to check in every couple of hours- kids can't just wander and explore anymore without a neighbor calling CPS or some creep trying to mess with them.
  • Well? Did she come back with that mouth again?

    I elbowed a boy in the nose and made his nose bleed...on accident of course. I also was kicked out of two different high schools. Oh I also once got myself into a classroom by making a note stating I was in this class, teachers didn't notice until a week later. These are the PG stories.

    Excuse ME. It wasn't just the guys... I did too. We came to school with a 12 gauge in the truck all the time.

  • I shot a bottle rocket (one of the big ones) into the window of a car passing on the highway. That was the day I got my start in long distance, cross country running as well.

    used to play a game where all the kids were on bikes and you had to knock each other off their bikes, if any part of your body (even your foot) touches the ground, you're out. Last one to still be on their bike wins.

    another game, ball-he on bikes... same as regular ball-he (whoever's it has a ball, it throws the ball at the others, whoever gets hit by the ball is the new it) but on bikes

    british bulldog on ice with no ice hockey kit, not tag bulldog, takedown bulldog, as in they're not out until their back is on the ice

    football on ice with no ice hockey kit

    the british version of dodgeball... kids line up against a wall, it has a ball (preferably not a cricket ball) and throws it at the kids as hard as they can from about 3-5m away. whoever gets hit by it is the new it

    and cricket in the middle of the street (we got out of the way when cars came along)

    fist fighting with the boys in my street, for fun, not out of anger or anything

    oh and pointing my finger at other kids and saying "bang" and pretending to shoot and kill each other... including lying dead on the ground and pretending to kill each other with swords, and fire toy arrows at each other with toy bows and stuff like that. And we'd shoot spud gun pellets at each other, and fire cap guns at each other, in fact the best guns were ones that were both spud guns and cap guns at the same time so they'd go bang *and* fire a spud pellet at the kid you were shooting.....

    actually I want my kids to have some of these experiences... I hope they still sell spud guns....

    I pushed a swing sideways and hit the girl next to me was swinging *properly* and very high. It was honestly an accident.

    She had to get 8 stitches in her face. Her family never forgave me, called my parents for months threatening lawsuits and we were never friends again.

    I was paddled by the dean for giving my 7th grade teacher the finger.
  • We were lighting off bottle rockets by just holding them up in the air with your hand by the stick.... I lit one, the fuse backfired, and landed in my- at the time- long hair. Lucikly it went out before I was totally bald.

    A boy kept stabbing at me with markers and leaving dots all over my arms and on my clothes, so I got mad. I got mad and I held him down and drew all over his face.

    You're lucky you aren't 5 years older. This could have happened during the Aqua-Net Decade...

    that did happen to me, at smoker's corner at my high school in 1988. I was lighting a cigarette and the wind blew my hair across my face and it lit up just about like that on the left side of my head. Aqua Net in the purple can.
