What kind of stupid stuff did you do as a child?

• My room was messy, but everything was a project of some kind. For example, the Jack's bag beside my bed was for a mouse. It would eat fries while I was in bed. It made me feel less afraid to be alone.

• When my mother would vacuum the house, I would get down on my hands and knees and bark at the vacuum. I can still see her facial expression to this day. It was the look of defeat and sadness.

• I would spend hours outside setting up toy soldiers, then shoot them with a BB gun. I would also set them on fire. I made all the sound effects, such as people screaming and explosions.

• I was the kid who dropped his pants all the way to the ground to use the urinal.

We lived in a pine forest. My friend and I would choose a young pine tree and climb as high as we could. If we chose well, the tree would bend way over, and we would let go and drop 5 or 6 feet to the ground. If we chose poorly, the tree would bend, but leave us 10 or 15 feet off the ground, making for a hard landing when we turned loose. Thank goodness pine needles on the forest floor were fairly soft.
@exexec I've done this before. Life really was better before the internet and smartphones. I sound old.

@exexec That sounds so nice. I don't like heights so typically I wouldn't climb [rare exceptions]. Exception being going climbing and getting weird "I'm considering pushing you from the edge because I'm intellectually curious about how murder feels" look from a sociopath friend I had when he put his arm out to 'help me up'.

Fuck that. I'mma pull [i]myself [/i]up, psycho. I still remember that day. Gives me a sick chill every time but glad I didn't fall for it. I'm not making this shit up. Anyone ever have a psycho friend?

@exexec That's what I call childhood. 👍
