But that's not bad! That's fucking amazing, that's the sort of thing most kids don't have the balls to do, aged ten, that sort of thing just doesn't pop into your head because, at least from my experience, a primary school's main function is to make the kids too scared of authority to rebel, thus making them nice little conformists who will go on to be nice and factory-standard in secondary school, etcetera.

Admittedly it doesn't really work very well.

I had been playing alot of Abe's Exoddus and Abe's Oddysee. It felt like the satisfying moment where you continually slap a slig only to realise once you stop you're gonna get shot. Yeah, if not for the story of Oddworld I'd be a lovely little conformist. :)

That was amazing. I swear to god I never expected that! And you were in year 4!?

Yeah, I'm usually pretty tame. It's just people like that get me annoyed beyond belief. Cause she wasn't just wasting her time, she was wasting ours. I'm the only one who's aloud to waste my time by procrastinating. :P

You should really be quieter about procrastination.

I personally see nothing wrong with openly admitting one of my flaws. It's better that I admit them than give the impression that I'm perfect.

J_Dude, that's fucking amazing. I love this thread.

Now let's see the things I've done in the past... I have a lot of memories of when I was twelve, being a little shit, running around everywhere and causing chaos; just usual shit like swearing at teachers and yelling in class. I think it had a lot to do with being bullied a lot back then since I've never done any of that junk previously. I was in detention almost every week.

From 13 years onwards, I’ve been quiet and kept to myself. I have however been in a few fights mainly in terms of self-defence but nothing too major.

Just recently I went to a mate’s house with a few others for his birthday and drunk for the first time. I don’t remember too much of the night but I awoke the next day on the floor and my small school laptop on my face. I saw on the screen a bunch of messy code I vaguely remember writing the night before.
One was a VBS Script which opened MSPaint.exe under an infinity loop, which when executed, would no doubt fry the CPU. The second was a disturbing game I made based around Club Penguin, which was one of my tabs opened in Firefox. I even published it on Yoyogames.

That’s basically it I guess. Never had sex, never smoked (and never plan to) and have never drunk regularly.

MOD EDIT: The context of this first paragraph has been lost somewhat. This thread had gone off-topic and was discussing piracy, which has been split off to here.

Wasn't there another thread or discussion about the ethics of piracy a while back, especially with this ACTA and SOPA lark going on? In fact, didn't I start it?

Still, I just wanna say that there's some good stories in here, especially from J_dude - Teachers are meant to teach kids lessons, but I suppose that day you taught her a lesson instead - Like why she shouldn't be such a terrible supply teacher. Hope her disappearance from the school was because she got fired for negligence.

Anyway, I was a very stupid child, although I somehow managed to avoid being influenced by the wrong people or doing anything too bad - Just minor, tame stuff with friends or cousins such as prank calling insurance companies and takeaways from call boxes, exploring an abandoned (and derelict) mansion/old college building, and going into the woods to burn a few of my old toy cars using a lighter and an aerosol can/smash bottles using a catapult. Although that's all general pissing about like most kids do. Unless your childhood was sheltered and boring, who hasn't done stupid things like that?

The worst thing I did as a child though was this: My parents used to light bonfires to get rid of rubbish. I ran around with a stick that was smouldering on one end 'cause it was fun to watch it glow and make a trail of smoke, except I wasn't watching where I was going and my sister was oblivious to what I was doing - I accidentally hit her just below the eye with it and could have easily blinded her... I learned a good lesson about spacial awareness that day.
