What dumb things did you do as a kid?

Question

I used to eat dirt!

Answer 1

I stuck a stone up my nose, I wanted to see how far it could go, Mom had to take me to the doctor to get it out!

Answer 2

I took pretend play to a whole new level when I went "shopping". My friend and I would walk to the store down the road and get a shopping cart and fill it with things that we needed "for our house". We were like nine or so. I still don't understand why we were never followed or stopped. When we got everything we "needed"- we'd simply leave the cart loaded with our "necessities" at the back of the store and make our way out to go do some other such nonsensicle thing we could cook up.

Answer 3

My friend and I wanted to see if a .22 slug would put a hole in a nickel but neither of us was a good enough shot to actually hit it, so we snuck into his dad's room and got his .22 cal rifle. Then we took it out in the field behind his house. We placed the butt of the rifle on the ground with the barrel pointing straight up to the sky and put a nickel on the end of the barrel and pulled the trigger. We both felt little bits of lead hit us in the face, neck and arms, and a short time later we heard the nickel fall into the weeds about ten feet away. We went and got safety glasses and tried it maybe 4 or 5 more times but could never find the nickel after hearing it fall into the weeds so we gave up. Straight pins worked better than tweezers to get the lead bits out of our skin. We each told our mom that we ran into big picker bushes.

Later we found a cylinder of insecticide -- a short, fat cylinder sorta like a propane torch bottle. We set it up on a fence post and shot that with the .22 rifle (it was easier to hit than the nickel). It fell on the ground, spun around like one of those spinning ground fireworks, and made a funny smelling cloud about the size of our house. If we knew what DDT really was, we prolly wouldn't have done it.
