Super User Columbia Craw Posted December 15, 2016 Super User Posted December 15, 2016 Everyone and I mean everyone has some deep dark secret, something they've done, seen or said at some time in their life. There are things that are so taboo, embarrassing and shameful you can't bring yourself to disclose it and it haunt your very soul. Well I'm opening myself up. I don't care of i'm chastised, ridiculed, shamed and or even shunned. It's something I have to do....for myself. I, I, I once bought a Barry Manilow album. There, I feel liberated. Thanks for listening. Anyone else take the challenge ? 5 Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted December 15, 2016 Super User Posted December 15, 2016 As a young lad, I was somewhat prone to getting myself in a bit of a bind now & then. On this one particular (Boring) Saturday morning, My best friend Johnny & I had gone down to the corner store for snacks. Upon leaving the establishment, we noticed that the local constable, Officer O'Mally, had set up a little speed trap. He had positioned his cruiser mostly out of sight of the road way in the small alley adjacent to the "snack store" (our name). Being a rather enterprising little spaz, I came up with a plan. Besides helping out a few of our neighbors, if it went well, we might even get a little more snack money. After a brief trip back into the store & a somewhat noxious dumpster dive on the other side of the store, we had what we needed and set to putting my "Plan" into action. Despite Officer O'Mally's perfect hiding place to watch for speeding motorists, he must have been more than a little surprised when everyone was under the speed limit. So he investigated and found the problem. What he found was Johnny, standing on the side of the road ahead of him with a hunk of cardboard sign which said “Radar Trap Ahead.” A little more investigative work led the good officer to Johnny's trusty accomplice: Me, about 100 yards beyond the radar trap with another scribbled cardboard sign that said “TIPS” and a bucket full of change. We were doing pretty good there for a while, but then the Jig was up. Me & Johnny got our first ride in a police car that sunny Saturday afternoon, but it wouldn't be our last. (this may or may not be fictional - mostly) A-Jay 8 Quote
Super User Columbia Craw Posted December 15, 2016 Author Super User Posted December 15, 2016 I've got thirty or forty more issues I could give up but the statute of limitations hasn't expired for them yet. " enterprising little spaz ?" Give yourself more credit A-Jay. You're not that little. 2 Quote
Super User Gundog Posted December 15, 2016 Super User Posted December 15, 2016 When my brothers and I were kids we were well known on the street as being the trouble-makers. I bet my brother that he couldn't throw a rock over a neighbors house and he couldn't. However, he did make it to the second floor window. My dad had to replace the window. But the best was when we decided to make a baseball field out of one of the neighborhood kids backyards. We got 5 bags of lime, 10 bags of sand and all the bases. We even made a pitching mound. We really didn't care that the backyard was about 1/8 the size of a regulation ball field or that his parents didn't know we were doing this. We just dumped the sand down in a somewhat straight line and then layed down the lime. When I think about it now I can't believe we didn't get in trouble for that. Quote
Bassinohio Posted December 16, 2016 Posted December 16, 2016 Me and some friends were all hanging out one friday afternoon. I play hockey, and I have a hockey net. We started throwing a semi large log at it. I gave it a hood hurl, and it hit the crossbar, and shot up in the air. it came down on the other side of the fence in our backyard. I ran and got it and we continued our fun. I noticed when I got the log it was near my neighbors new shiny red car. No alarms, so were good, right? About f minutes later, the neighbor came over and asked if we knew anything about a large dent on the roof of the car. As teenage boys, we denied everything and went inside. We never saw that neighbor again. Quote
riverbasser Posted December 16, 2016 Posted December 16, 2016 When i was about 14 I had some friends come over to pick me up. One of them was in the bathroom and I took that spare time to show the other guys an antique rabbit ear double barrel 12 gauge that was at least 50 years old. It had been in the gun cabinet since I was born and I'd never seen it shot. Well I'm showing it off and pull one of the hammers back, it slips off my thumb and I put a round of buckshot through the wall. (My friend in the bathroom thought someone got shot) apparently my dad decided to load it just in case and I didn't come home that weekend until I absolutely had too. 1 Quote

Super User N Florida Mike Posted December 16, 2016 Super User Posted December 16, 2016 One time I was walking around outside the house with my loaded 12 gauge.I stupidly pulled the trigger for some reason,thinking the safety was on. It blew through my wood garage door and a pellet hit the gas tank on my little 3 horse kicker And I was taking my boss fishing with it the next day! My wife had just gone out of the garage right before that.She actually asked me was I shooting at her! Still ashamed of that.I have always been all about gun safety.Just shows what can happen if you get careless. 3 Quote

papajoe222 Posted December 17, 2016 Posted December 17, 2016 At age ***, I worked at the local drug store stocking shelves and such. Being inquisitive about things, my sticky fingers provided me with a twelve pack of condoms for examination. My curiosity was quenched upon opening the first pack. Unable to return the open package, a friend and I decided to make reusable snow balls (they actually looked like fat sausages) and throw them at passing cars. We could then retrieve them and repeat the 'fun.' The second car to pass was my target and as I let fly, I noticed the elderly lady behind the wheel and momentarily felt a little ashamed as my 'snow sausage' was about to hit her windshield. It didn't, however bounce off as anticipated, but stuck to the wiper arm waving back and forth as she passed. I had to go home and change my pants as I literally soiled them from laughing so hard. 4 Quote

Super User Columbia Craw Posted December 17, 2016 Author Super User Posted December 17, 2016 Godzilla ain't got nothing on me ! When I was in high school I worked for guy who had a ski boat moored at a local " Yacht Club." He allowed my best friend and I to use it when ever we wanted after work as long as we cleaned it and filled the tank. One hot summer evening we went water skiing and somehow someone happened to acquire some alcoholic beverages. Being the daring "young lad " I was, much like A-Jay, and not having any water, I was forced to drink some of those devil's brews. Well that led to nude water skiing. I was on doubles and squat down low so my tansducer was just getting a reading when a huge water craft filled with fine folks from yacht club came into view. My buddy of course took a bee line right to them. Rather than dump it I remained in my modest position just as we passed each other. I stood up, smiled and waved as we sped by. I'm sure I heard one of the ladies comment, " what I nice tan that young man has." 1 Quote
