I need your stories!?

Question

I'm collecting stories, life experiences, and memories.
Stupid things you did as a kid, the things that have made you laugh till you cried, recipies gone horribly wrong, the time your husband tried to be nice and destroyed all of your clothes doing laundry, The story that starts... "we were so drunk and". Anything that stands out in your memory.
Here is an example... When we were about nine or ten, my best friend and I built a wooden sled. It was about 3ft long and 1.5ft wide, complete with 2x4's for runners. In our juvinille brilliance we decided to pull this along gravel roads with one another driving the tractor at about 30-35mph. It got really exciting when we decided the best way to ride was to surf! I was left with a few scars and one of the best memories of my childhood.

Answer 1

I remember being about 7 and I wanted to see if standing on the end of a rake would really make it come up and hit you in the head, and it did. Funnily enough I told my folks i walked into a brick wall because i thought that was less embarrassing!?!?!

Answer 2

When I was 16 I went on a 1st date with a guy that I worked with. We went to his house with some friends and watched a movie. Getting there was the most adventerous part of the date. I guess the 1st date jitters made my date forget one significant detail. His stepdad bought him a new car, a stick shift, and to teach him (the cruelest way possible) how to drive it he told him that he had to take the car to work. See, he had NEVER driven one in his life. So, after an hour of whip lash causing stops and stalls we FINALLY made it out of the parking lot at work. It took us about 2 hours total to make it to his house. To make matters worse for him, the other 2 friends were behind us the entire time. So, instead of watching a movie, he spent that whole night getting ribbed by his buddies.

Answer 3

Me, my brother, and three other guys as a young teenage got an Automobile Hood and was sledding down a hill behind a neighbors house. This was years ago. Well we did not think about how to steer the Hood, and we ended up running into the Cinder block Wall of the foundation of the house, and it about "killed" all of us. That was the LAST time I rode on it, and I was tore up like a Big Dog. We all were. It hurt like crazy when it was over, but we still laughed at ourselves.

Answer 4

After a twenty year seperation the love of my life and I got back together. On my 46th birthday we went to a club, my son and his wife and a bunch of friends were there. It was karoke night at the club we were in so my boyfriend went to the microphone and said" I have gotten the women I love back and it's her birthday then he looked at me and said baby this one is for you." He then launched into THE WORST(he sounds like two cats fighting when he sings) rendention of When A Man Loves A Woman you have ever heard. My son was standing there beside as I lovingly listened to the song and he said(my son is a three time honors show choir singer and has competed at the National level)"That is the sweetest thing I have ever heard, it's also the most awful thing I've ever heard but it is definitely the sweetest thing I've ever heard." Then he kissed me and walked off so he wouldn't have to lie to the man I love's face if he came back to the table and asked him what he thought. It was the sweetest thing I ever heard and the sweetest thing any man has ever done for me, except give me my son.

Answer 5

HI
When I was about 4 it was before i started school, my older siblings were playing hide and go seek and wouldn't let me play. I went and hid in a dryer anyway I fell asleep and soon the whole house was looking for me so I actually did get to play. I thought everybody had joined in to find me because I picked a great hiding place, I didn't really understand they were panicked parents recruiting the household to find me.

Answer 6

when i was about 3 or 4, My parents used to sleep in till about ten, but every morning i was up at six. I went downstairs early one morning and put one of my videos into the video player. It was a show about these two monkeys called bangers and mash, and the trouble they got into. this particular episode, one of them decided to "hatch an egg" on their dads favourite chair, and it did, of course, go wrong. I thought i knew exactly what they did wrong. "Of course it didn't work," i told myself, "Because those are boy monkeys, and only women can make babies." so i went to the fridge , brought an egg back to the carpeted lounge room floor, and tested it out for myself... thankfully, i managed to clean the mess up with a wet towel before mum and dad woke...

Answer 7

One time I went to summer camp, and the counselors were all teenagers and always stoned (this was during the 70's). They told us all that we were going to play hide and seek in the woods and told us all to go hide, then didn't come to find us. Twenty kids spent the whole day and half the night in the woods before those stupid stoners remembered us.

Answer 8

there was a show i used to watch when i was little, but i dont remember the name now. in the opening song, there were two wolves getting married, though in the show it was obvious they were both boys. Curious about this, i asked My Mum one night at bathttime, if boys could marry boys and girls could marry girls. she tried not to show her concern, and said that it was true. unaware of the fact that some people see that it was wrong to like someone of the same gender, i announced that i was going to marry a girl when i grew up. since i had no proper feelings for boys yet, and saw them as pretty boring, it seemed perfectly logical to me. unfortunately, the next day at kindy, i told everyone i could, including all the children's parents, that i planned to marry a girl when i grew up. some of them still think im lesbian!

Answer 9
