What's the craziest thing that you have ever done?

[GingerSnaps]

I took my clothes off in traffic one time on a dare and I soon found out why the traffic was backed up. The traffic was backed up because It was a police road block. It was so embarrassing but they let me pass without pulling me over.

[Mojambo]

1. I streaked

in front of 200 people wearing only a Santa hat one Xmas...

I also drove home from the bar naked one night.

[skygazer]

2. Probably the time I hitchhiked across the country

with no money at the age of 18.

Or possibly the time I robbed the bank.........

[GingerSnaps]

8. You robbed a bank?

We have something in common sort of I was robbed by my bank for fees due to a bank error.

[skygazer]

16. Hahaha

Yeah, they're still getting back at me.

It sounds more interesting to say it that way. I was a teenage kid and I forged a withdrawal slip and took some money out of a friend's mother's account for her (because she was too chicken to do it herself and I was stupid enough to say, "Oh, I will"). Settle out of court - it was a long time ago and a simpler time.

[nuxvomica]

3. I voted for John Anderson in 1980

Helped elect RR for the first time and I was surprised that he won. D'oh!

[CanuckAmok]

47. Wow, John Anderson from "Yes"? That IS crazy!

[richmwill]

4. At an office party...

I asked the main female boss in my company (after a few drinks) if she wanted to "come back to my place". :o

Thank God it was never mentioned by either of us ever again. (And no, she didn't accept the proposal)

[Guy Fawkes]

5. Well, there was this one guy... Oh, wait... craziest *thing*...

I drank a can of 7up from the early 60's last year... It was very bad.

[yelladawg]

6. Got married

The #1 dumb thing I've ever done.

[HEyHEY]

7. The time I piked up those two hitchhikers in the middle of nowhere

at midnight. That wasn't crazy as it so much was stupid

[WindRavenX]

9. do tell!

Sounds interesting...:think:

[HEyHEY]

13. It was only a month or so ago

I was driving through a Native reserve at midnight and I saw two guys tumbling around on what was basically a country road.
I pulled up and said "Are you guys okay"
I didn't realize they were hitch-hiking...the started to get in my car.One almost sat on my CD so I reached to grab it and he sat on my hand and got up quickly.
"You touched my ass" he said
I explained I was just getting a cd. He calmed
Then they said they were going to "the sub" I didn't know the way and when they began directing me off on a secondary road I became scared....we kept going up and I was sure I was gonna get mugged...then suddenly it broke into a sub-division.
"First drive on the left" the guy said
Then they got out.

That was it

[LibDemAlways]

10. I took a 24 hour turn-around bus trip

and channel crossing from Paris to London and back in the summer of 1980. Couldn't sleep on the bus because a totally wasted guy from Scotland felt it was his obligation to amuse me with jokes all night.
Arrived in London at 5 am to "sightsee" and ended up napping on a lawn chair in St. James Park. Caught a bus back that night and arrived in Paris in time for Bastille Day festivities - which I slept through.

A close second would be a couple of g-rated rock star encounters -which even today are too embarrassing to discuss.

[Senior citizen]

11. Send money to the Kerry campaign.

I was sort of a legend in my own time, and for many years when I was younger, "crazy" or some variant thereof, appeared to be part of my name. But nothing I've ever done compares to the insanity of sending money to the candidate of a major political party. It had to be done and I did it, but I still think I must be out of my Cheneying mind.

[alittlelark]

38. uh, yeah..... n/t

12. Fun with elevators

In college, my friend (who I knew in high school), Doug, and I liked to play in our dorm elevators just to see people's reactions. For instance, we would play chess in the elevator and ignore people who would come in - that made most people very, very nervous.

So St. Patrick's Day was coming up. We had already gotten in trouble for drinking beer in the lounge - it was actually beer colored Ginger Ale, which we then revealed to the RA after getting yelled at (which made him madder that he couldn't do anything), and we needed something to do.

As it happens one of my best friend's dad was replacing a toilet last time I went to visit. He tried to sneak the old one into my car, and I told him he was being silly - I would find a use for it and would gladly take it. My use for it was to put it on the elevator, drop my pants (skimpy shorts underneath), pick up a paper and sit on the toilet and just go to whatever floor called me. Doug was in the corner. Most of the time, I would glare at the person who called the elevator and yell, "Excuse me! A little privacy here?" before hitting the close door button while they stood there shocked.

Doug, however, did something far more clever. After I had been called up to the top floor several times to the amusement of a growing number of people, we went to the lounge where Doug and I put poster tack on his shoes and then put them on the ceiling. Doug then got on the floor underneath them and held his head and moaned everytime someone walked by. The first few people got the joke... Then it got weird...

We had three separate mobs of people crowding around us believing Doug had been upside down on the ceiling and asked him if he needed to be taken to the ER. Between the first and second mob, I came up with the story that Doug and I had developed this super-adhesive in chemistry class, and we were testing it. I had lifted Doug up to the ceiling (easy enough since I've lifted weights most of my life, and Doug weighs less than 140), and he had stuck there. However, when I was untying his shoes and trying to keep a grip on him, he slipped and bumped his head. People easily believed it because of our reputations.

No one ever thought to try and pull the shoes off the ceiling.

[alittlelark]

39. That is soo clever

while in Reno for the BBQ festival my kids and I will do that!

[TlalocW]

62. Here's something even better...

That I regret never getting around to doing.

Get some white lab coats, clipboards, paper, pens, etc. If you wear glasses, great. Just stand in the elevator and when people get on, look at them intently for a few seconds then start writing something down. Look at them again; write something down. If they ask what you're doing, give a non-commital grunt or go, "Ah..." or "Interesting..." and write something down. Guaranteed to make people paranoid.

We got these ideas after seeing an old Candid Camera where everyone in the elevator was in on the gag except whoever got on. As they traveled up the building, everyone would turn a quarter turn to the left. Not wanting to feel left out and experiencing the ultimate in elevator peer pressure, the guy not in on the joke would do so as well. This would continue until they had done a full revolution and were facing forward again.

14. Straight A student (me) graffitied the school with liberal messages

in chalk on the night before the school hosted the really big, 3-A wrestling championship. Literally, thousands of people from all over the state there for it and big pink fem signs and "Bring back the separation of church and state" and "get god out of this school" "no special privileges for boys" and all sorts of other stuff.

Never got caught, either.

I was pissed, had been watching "Pump Up The Volume" late at night by myself, and was tired of the oppression.... It was chalk, true, but I glazed it with that cheap aerosol hairspray, so it wouldn't just brush off. It stayed up until someone power washed it off... and the Wrestling tourney had finished....

[LibDemAlways]

21. You have a little bit in common with

repuke Senator George Allen of Virginia. I was a witness to the craziest thing he did as a teenager -- graffitied our high school -- but definitely not with liberal messages. His graffiti was racist and hateful - just like him. He was caught, and had to apologize over the school PA.

[politicat]

27. I would not do something "racist and hateful".

I'm sure it was hateful to the administration of the school at the time, but ...

being a 15 year old who can't date because mormon boys aren't allowed to go out with Gentiles (yes, that's what they called me...) even though I knew there were a couple that the affection was mutual.... having to compete and get better grades than the other kids because they had 6 classes a day and I had seven (they had religious education release time; the Catholic Church had catechism in the afternoons and evenings) so they ended up having an easier time of it... getting told my only options for college were BYU, Ricks College (a CC.... ick) and NAU (I managed to get myself accepted at Harvard as it happens, no thanks to my GD guidance counselor...)

It was a hard place to grow up. Very painful. That was the only time I really blew off steam.

Glad I got out, though....

15. I porned up a house when i was a teen.

My friend’s father had a ton of Playboy/Penthouse/Hustler magazines. My friend used to steal them from his dad by the dozen. We had quite a large collection that we had kept in a fort that we had built in the woods. I forget the circumstances, but we got pissed off at this old crotchety couple that lived on our block for blaming us for something we didn’t do. So late one night we retaliated! We ripped pictures from the magazines and taped them to every window on their house, but the porn party didn’t stop there! We climbed up into their trees and hung all the centerfolds from the branches. Then we hit the mailbox, their cars, the front, and back doors -- even the doghouse. Almost everything was covered in porn. We weren’t there in the morning, but I could imagine the old guy’s face when he pulled up his shades. "AAHHHHHHH!!"

[Mojambo]

20. A friend and I

once broke into the home of another friend of ours. He and his whole family were out of town for the weekend.

We ate/stole all the food we could find in their house. They came home to a completely empty kitchen.

Don't feel too badly for them, they were quite well off.

[2cents]

17. Skydiving

Jumping out of a perfectly good plane trusting your shoot will function properly is kinda crazy when you think about it.

[alittlelark]

18. Mine is HORRRRRIBLE.

4 years ago I went to a wedding shower. The shower was for my 1st grade daughter's teacher. This is in a Silicon Valley elite's home. I live and work in a VERY wealthy area (Los Altos). The luncheon was held outdoors, beautifully catered, great canapes. It was hot. I was in the sun. I have the palest skin of anyone I know.

Anyway, It was hot, and I was thirsty. They were only serving white wine and champagne. I drink red wine. I drank the white. It was hot, and I was thirsty. I drank a lot of white wine. According to friends, I was found twice hanging out w/ the hostesses mother (she was toooo cool) and drinking white wine.

OK, this is getting too long - I became 'the life of the party', took off my dress and jumped into the pool. I was wearing black bra and panties - so MOST attendees did not know I was not wearing a swimsuit. I barely remember jumping into the pool. A number of the other party guests started dangling legs and wading.

I was driven home by the hostesses maid.

Bottom line - 3/4 of the people there thought I was 'cool' the other 1/4 knew better, and the hangover I experienced was epic.

Oh, and once I got home I called misc. people and insulted them (Somebody, PLEASE invent a Breathalyzer for the phone).


By the way - did I mention it was a WEDDING SHOWER for my daughters 1st Grade teacher

[GingerSnaps]

22. You brought back an old memory

I got so drunk at a party one time that I removed my dress and I walked around in my panties and bra. I don't remember what went on but everyone verified that it happened and I also slept with my ex's best friend that night.

[alittlelark]

25. Damn, doesn't that suck!!!

At least I slept w/ hubby that night. He says it was great, but I only have blurry still-shots.

[CanuckAmok]

46. i find you strangely attractive after hearing that!!

Whew!

[barackmyworld]

19. more sad than crazy

maybe 6 years ago, I took an 8-hour, $120 greyhound trip to go to an nsync concert. I guess I wasn't that crazy, cause another girl was doing the same thing.

[kodi]

23. well......

me and a couple of buddies dropped two hits of acid each, grabbed a case of beer, a couple of kalishnokov-type rifles and my 9mm ruger and went bat hunting in a cave.

we must have fired off a thousand rounds that night listening to pink floyd and the who's quadrophenia

weirdest fucking night of my life.

never hit a damn bat the whole night. but holy jesus, the sound of small arms fire in that cave was intense.

[GingerSnaps]

24. You killed poor defenseless Bats?

Are you Ozzie Osbourne?

I am just screwing with you!

[kodi]

32. there is more to the story of that saturday night. and it is tragic

on the following tuesday the local paper had a story about a woman who was murdered. she had been picked up in a bar in knoxville by a man and woman who robbed her and bludgeoned her in the woods near the cave......about 1,500 yards from one of the entrances to the cave we were in. had we gone into that cave from that other entrance, its axiomatic that we would have run right into the murderers on the road to the cave before they killed that poor woman.

[GingerSnaps]

34. You were lucky

You might have not been here today if you had run into the murderers.

:scared: :hug:

[kodi]

40. well, my buddies each had a rifle and i had a handgun that night

chances are that we might have saved that lady since we had not yet dropped the acid until we were in the cave. had we seen a car that night in the woods we would have scared them or checked it out.

one thinks about the road not taken as such times and wonders what a world we miss by not turning a corner and instead walking on by.

[2Design]

26. too many to mention......but there was one.....

stuck in traffic on the interstate at 11pm......had just been some where .....and drank umpteen cups of coffee.....

the roads were glazed in spots because of temp changing to lower....

the traffic did not move for 2 hours.....men were going over the bank of the road to relieve themselves.......

there were three lanes of traffic.......I was busting....
all cars and trucks were turned off.....

I got out and walked to the car behind me....thank god it was a woman...

I asked her if she would hold my coat around me while I took a 'pee'
we went to the front of my car and I swatted and relieved myself.....
in the middle of the interstate....and I know anyone around knew exactly what I was doing.....

It was embarassing but ...... I felt so much better after......

Finally the traffic started to move.....there had been a tractor trailer that had jack knifed and turned on its side up ahead.....

[alittlelark]

41. Relieving youself is not an embarrassing moment!!!!

It is a Homo Sapien Sapien moment.

[GingerSnaps]

43. Same here

I have done some crazy things in my life.

[politicat]

28. oh... yeah I'd forgotten. 6 of us dressed up in flowered sheets one night

Klan style - really grotesque things.... big purple and pink psychedelics from 1968....

and went and stood on the (very oppressive, very racist, very conservative) vice principal's front lawn and sang

camper van beethoven's

Take the Skinheads Bowling.

It was surreal. No cross burnings, though. No burnings of anything.

[DemWitch]

29. craziest...

When I was 18, I had decided that I wanted to get married. The girl I was dating knew I was gay and didn't have a problem with it, so we set the date. I was to graduate high school on the 21st and get married on the 27th of June. On Saturday the 13th, I was given a bachelor party, where I proceeded to consume way to much alcohol for 3 people. Now mid you the last thing Sheri said to me was I don't care how much you drink, just don't drive... haha...

I had this really hopped up Torino (hey... it was 1981, OK)... headers, straight pipes, ass jacked to the moon with wide slicks and mags. Off to the field days I go... to get a beer of 5 of course. I got into a fight with some guy there, and decided to leave after I had kicked his ass (later I discovered he had done quite a bit of damage too, but I was kind of pain free at this point). I left the field days, and stopped at McD's for a BigMac and fries. As I was leaving McD's I kinda peeled out of the parking lot and came to stop at the light. And then Officer Friendly pulled up aside me and said "when the light turns green, pull through the intersection and pull over to the side, son". Yes, sir was my reply, and... I hit the gas... hard... I remember looking at the speedometer and thinking the cop was doing pretty good keeping up, since I was doing 110mph... on the Boulevard... heading out of town... long story short... the engine blew after 15 miles... I hit the cop when I got arrested... threw up in the back of the cops car... had to deal with my ex-wifes high pitched whiney ass voice... lost my license for a year... paid a shitload in fines to keep out of jail... had 10 years of VERY high insurance rates... and had a hangover, along with the injuries I got in the fight that the next day I wished I was dead...

Young... and very stupid...

[aquaman]

30. When I was 16 years old..........

I went airborne into the mayor's yard of a neighboring town. He came out of his house and I told him to help me get "my god damn car out of the god damn ditch." He was a preacher too, and called the cops, and I got a DUI. Oh, those were the days.

[aQuArius]

31. Posted TWO threads that got LOCKED on DU

That whole no sex threads thing was my hang-up... All I wanted to do was "Do a DUer" What in bloody hell is wrong with that?

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

33. Not so crazy but sort of exciting: had sex in my then-boyfriend's (now

husband) front seat of his car in the parking garage above a hotel. It was pretty hot!

[Kire]

35. slept with a girl in her boyfriend's bed

I ain't proud.

[miss_kitty]

36. oh yeah this reminds me of the time i...

drank a lot of tequila in a short amount of time (half a fifth in 20 minutes)...my boyfriend was having a party...this is BAD. he lived in a big house with some other guys..ok not THAT bad...the house next door was a friendly biker dude house...i passed out in my bf's bedroom....at one point, i came to, and my bf was puking, and it got on me.
i got up and walked out of the bedroom and thru the kitchen to the bathroom. party was still goin strong. i was still really, really drunk. i went into the bathroom-this was 30 years ago-i remember looking down at the 50 buttons on this tight little puke covered poorboy shirt i was wearing thinking "whoa! what the-why'd i wear this how'm i gonna get it off?" it seemed like it took hours to get all the buttons undone
i washed it in the sink, and cleaned myself off, gathered everything up and trundled back through the kitchen into the bedroom and kicked a clean spot on the floor where i passed out again.
i had this weird memory of Mark, a guy from the biker dude house next door staring at me still to this day with his jaw dropping, and i remember smiling back at him, wondering "wass tha' look abou'?"

i think it was prolly years later, i finally realised i had not bothered to put my shirt on no bra, to go back to the bedroom. Mark had been shocked and he never mentioned it to me...i had a three day hangover and did not drink for a couple years..

[GingerSnaps]

37. I maced a guy one time

A couple of friends and I were coming home from a bar one night and this guy started following us on a two lane road that soon turned into a one lane road. He kept yelling out his window that we were bonita muy bonita and los chicas esa muy bonita. He kept on my tail end for a few miles and he got in front of my car and slammed on his brakes and we were on a bridge with no way to turn around. He came up to my window and I maced him and the mace got into my car and we were all choking on it and we had to get out of the car with this nutty guy standing by our car and it was pitch dark out. :scared: I maced the guy again and we got in the car and backed it up right on the bridge and choked the whole way home.

[miss_kitty]

45. damn we needed mace in mazatlan

in the 80's my sis and i and another friend were there...we went to a really great restaurant in the 'bad' part of town...when we came our of the restaurant, we were all gigly, wearing short skirts and heels.
a bunch of local guys spotted us and gave chase yelling "barata putas! barata putas(cheap whores)!"
i assure you...we were in no way "cheap"

[GingerSnaps]

42. I have done so many crazy things in my life

I pulled my panties off on a dance floor one time because it was so hot in the club that I thought that it would help me cool off.

[Baja Margie]

44. This was many, many years ago...

we took our mom to "Blacks Beach" and we all went au natural and got tipsy on wine.

but it happened in Canada. Damn Canadians ;)

[Lovecrafty]

51. Dropped acid and rode "The Titan" at Six Flags Over Texas!!!

I took the LSD in the parking lot and waited about an hour to go into the park. I wasn't yet peaking..but close. Me and my group of friends made our way through the park, stopping occasionally to marvel at some now bizarre scene, and decided to ride the Titan! As we waited in line for the ride the acid really kicked in and I started to peak! By the time we got on I was tripping VERY heavily! All I could do was sit in silent awe as we clak-clak-clakked up the steep slope of the rollercoaster, staring down into what seemed an abyss of swirling color and lights. The coaster finally reached the top after what seemed an eternity and we dropped straight down. I remember the sensation of speed and intertia, coupled with the dreamy effects of the LSD. After the initial plunge my conciousness felt like it was torn away from my physical being and trailing behind the coaster like lag on a phone modem! There was a distinct seperation of mind and body that to this day I cannot fully describe. It was the most out-of-body experience I have ever had! When the coaster abruptly slowed for the final crawl into the station, only then did my conciousness come back into my body and I felt whole again. But for a little while I was two unique beings travelling outside the bounds of the material world...

[MirrorAshes]

52. I ate mushrooms at Carrowinds in NC one time.

Though I don't think I had a genuine out of body experience, I have some idea of what you're talking about.

Crazy.

[SarahB]

53. Nothing really

I'm still waiting on this one. Got any ideas? :shrug:

[GingerSnaps]

56. If you get an idea go for it

If you feel like pulling your clothes off and driving down the highway go for it as long as it's past the kids bedtime. :evilgrin:

[SarahB]

61. I have loads of ideas.

Plan on going for them A.S.A.P. ..... film at 11:00!

[JohnKleeb]

54. yawn Ive been up for since 1 yesterday

heh hey guys.

[Tom_Foolery]

55. I had an affair with a married woman...

Now that's crazy shit because it was the exact opposite of my character. I still feel guilty about it.

[Magrittes Pipe]

57. On the advice of my attorney...

...I am going to invoke my rights under the fifth amendment and refrain from answering that question, on the grounds that it may incriminate me.

:evilgrin:

[flvegan]

59. Another sex one

With my long-term girlfriend on the hood of my Corvette (I was young and materialistic then). It was dark, but it was on the side of the road, in public, in full view. Nobody drove by, thankfully.

[Nikia]

58. Stole debris from a building being torn down

It was an old academic building that my husband and I had classes in the previous two years. They tore it down during the summer and we happened to be in the community. They had stopped tearing it down for the night, but the whole area was fenced off and they had security guards around. We waited until the security guard went around back and my husband lifted me over the fence. I stole a few pieces of concrete and he helped me back over the fence. That building meant a lot to me so I kept part of it.
