[debm55]

[OldBaldy1701E]

[Lochloosa]

[Lochloosa]

8. As a child no... as a teen every chance I got.

But not completely my fault. The drinking age was 18, no one ever carded, and I grew up in a college town where the university was rated as one of the top party schools in the country. And… we made the cover of High Times magazine for the best weed in the country. What can I say other than so thankful cell phones weren’t a thing then.

[debm55]

12. Thank you for sharing with us. Phoenix61. It wasn't Penn State was it?

[Phoenix61]

34. No, University of Florida.nt

[lark]

60. Just from your description I had guessed UF!

I lived in Jax. and the reputation is and was strong.

[Permanut]

9. Shoplifted a candy bar at Safeway when I was eleven..

The store manager caught me just outside the store, and instructed me to come back in the store and to his office.

A lecture, of course and then he said -

"SON, HAVE YOU EVER RIDDEN IN A POLICE CAR?"

There were. consequences at home of course but no ride in a police car.

That was the end of my career as a criminal.

[debm55]

13. Thank you very much for sharing with us. Permanut. I fill sorry for you.

[True Dough]

10. I still get into mischief as an adult!

Just by the answers I type here to a lot of Lounge threads!

[debm55]

14. Very true. TrueDough.

[calimary]

15. Too busy trying to get good grades,

basically so I could get into a decent college - AWAY from home.

[debm55]

19. Me too, calimary, Me too.

[Ritabert]

16. I was in Catholic school for 12 years and the oldest of 6 kids.

I was in charge so I never got in trouble.

[debm55]

20. Thank you very much , Ritabert. for sharing. I went to Catholic school for 8 years. Family moved to the suburbs and went

to public school

[Ritabert]

22. So you've been there. 🙂

[debm55]

24. Yes, I I went to Catholic school in a mill town outside of Pittsburgh,

[Mister Ed]

21. I would just leave school if I wanted to.

Elementary school, Junior High, High School. I felt vaguely puzzled by the concept that the school had any authority over me. I wasn't a troublemaker, I just didn't understand the concept. So I'd leave if I wanted to.

[debm55]

26. That's very intersting. Thank you Mister Ed.

[kimbutgar]

23. My Mother brought me a toy gun at a second hand store because I was into cowboys and Indians for a time.

I was playing outside and my Dad came home and I pointed the gun at him. He snatched it out of my hands and my Mom and him had a “ spirited “ discussion about her buying me the gun. I never saw that gun again.

[debm55]

28. Oh my. Glad it was a toy gun

[rsdsharp]

25. I, of course, was a perfect child; well behaved in every respect.

That unfortunate incident involving the hammer and David Hahn’s head have been greatly exaggerated over the years.

[debm55]

29. Oh you, It wasn't you was it?

[rsdsharp]

40. It wasn't? I mean. . . Why no, of course not!

[debm55]

41. Good to hear, rsdsharp. I was afraid it was you.

[MaryMagdaline]

27. Suspended from school once

Smoking cigarettes

[debm55]

30. Thank you very much for sharing with us. My HS had a patio where kids could smoke.

[MaryMagdaline]

33. Ours, too! Beginning in 8th grade

[debm55]

35. Wow. ours was in 10th,11th and 12th grade.

[KS Toronado]

31. When I was 6 years old out at my grandparents farm

my younger brother asked me how that rifle with the lever worked. The rifle cabinet was locked so no one
could take anything out of it but you could touch everything in the cabinet.

To short to reach it myself, I lifted my brother up and told him to move that lever out and up and back where it
started, then pull the trigger.

The 30-30 went off with a bang, the bullet going through the floor above and the floor above that and lodged
into a rafter or something in the attic, if it wasn't for the rafter it would have gone through the roof and it was
raining that day.

Uncle got a ass chewing from grandpa for not unloading it before putting it in the gun rack.
And me I got a paddling on my rear that hurt for quite awhile.

[debm55]

36. WOW. Thank you for sharing with us. I think it was more your uncle's fault for not unloading. Did your kid brother get

in Trouble?

[KS Toronado]

38. He walked scot free being the youngest.

[debm55]

39. Thanks, KS Toronado.

[sinkingfeeling]

32. Only time my dad ever spanked me. I was

probably 6 and my mom was talking on the phone. I got bored waiting for her and carved my initials into a lamp table with bobby pin.

[debm55]

37. Oh I am so sorry , sinkingfeeling.

[Talitha]

42. I was about 4 or so.

I really liked orange juice and poured some into the bowl of Fido, our Goldfish so he'd be able to taste it. Mom caught me red-handed and acted mad but was sort of laughing all through the lecture about how it might have made him sick. We changed his water and she said it was really nice that I wanted to share, but to ask next time. (My punishment was not getting any orange juice the next morning.)

Like every kid, I got into other trouble while growing up and the punishment was a lot worse than not getting any orange juice.

[debm55]

43. Thank you for sharing with us. I got beat with a broom for letting a 5 year old boy kiss me. I was 5.

[Talitha]

44. So sorry that happened to you, Deb.

[debm55]

45. Thank you, Talitha.

46. Got caught by the Navy Police

I was about 11 years old and my father was stationed at NAS Memphis. He was a Captain working directly under the base commander. There was an old transport aircraft display by the flightline so me and a friend decided to explore it one weekend. We played in the cockpit, the cargo area, and the rest of the plane. After about 20 minutes the Navy SPs drove up to the plane and we tried to hide in the plane but to no avail. They put us in their vehicle, took our names and addresses, and drove us home. Of course, this was reported to my father on Monday and when my father got home I got a spanking. Oh well, it didn't stop my curiosity and me and my friend still roamed the base but we stayed away from the flightline.

[debm55]

49. Thank you LogDog75 for sharing, with us. That sounds like a real adventure.

[irisblue]

47. deb, I am sorry you got beat. Physical punishment was so common once

[debm55]

50. Thank you irisblue. Back then it was what it was.Sorry to say.

51. Being the 2nd of 4 boys

I have so many to choose from.

One stands out, on one Easter morning everyone is getting ready for the obligatory visit to church, my younger brother was in the bath tub, my older brother was standing near the tub. I don’t recall what started it but my older brother made me mad so I pushed him in the tub, fully dressed ready to go.

Needless to say my butt suffered the consequences.

[debm55]

55. HAHAHAHAH. Thank you for sharing. Did your family ever make it to church?

[Sailingdiver]

52. When I started school

We walked to school. We lived in a growing neighborhood so lots of new construction. I would get interested in the construction work more than going to school. I can't remember the number of times my mom had to drive around the new construction looking for me after she got a call from school that I was absent.

[debm55]

56. HAHAHA That;s funny that you for sharing.Sailingdiver.

[CanonRay]

54. I got in a fight in 2nd grade

The kid was a least a foot taller than me, and was bullying me. I broke his nose. The principal was not happy with me.

[debm55]

57. I bet she wasn't.to happy with you. thank you very much for sharing with us. CanonRay.

[doc03]

58. I was an angel, never did anything wrong. That's my story and I am sticking to it. nt

[debm55]

59. HAHAHAHHHAH. Thank you, doc03.

[HappyH]

61. An easier question to answer:

Was there ever a time when, as a child, I was not in trouble or creating mischief? I'm not going to answer that one either!

[debm55]

62. HAHAHHAHAHHA. Thank you very much, HappyH

[gopiscrap]

63. I lived in Frankfurt Germany

I went to a Catholic School and I hated it. The Cathedral next to the school was open all the time. German winters were really cold. My mom had this clear gelatin powder to strengthen her nails. When mixed with cold water it turned into jellow. So on a Saturday late evening I slipped into the Cathedral and poured that powder into the holy font so the next morning when church goers were to dip their finger in the front of water to bless themselves, they were met with this hardened jello.... yes I got paddled for it

[debm55]

64. Oh that is funny, but bad at the same time. Thank you for sharing your post with us.
