worst thing you've ever done (V2!)
 
Yes, I am reviving another ****ing favorite, but...let's see how it goes.

Whats the worst thing you've ever done? Even if you don't feel so bad about it? I think basically the worst thing I can remember is when I was in lunch one day at school. I was chatting with a girl in my grade, and she says, "my brother goes around the house saying he's not a virgin." Her brother is kinda chubby, and I open my goddamn mouth and go, "if your brother were to make out with some girl, he'd crush her." She just basically glared at me and wen't, "you asshole." I still feel pretty rotten about it. I don't know if she told him, but we're cool now, the three of us. Good thing they belive in forgivness, because I sure as hell don't, unless I feel the person deserves it.

I also can't stand how I annoy everyone in my class, it's almost like it's involuntarily the way I do it. I used to make fun of any fat person I would come in contact with. But i have since changted my ways a lot since then.

Hahahaaha! Oh that was great. I have to remember that one XD.

Hm... worst thing I ever did. I dunno actualy. I think I kicked a police officer in the balls once, but I don't realy feel bad about that ^^.
Can't realy think of anything now, but I will let you know! :P

I offered my band to play a "slow mellow song" at a friend's brother's wedding - instead we covered Orgy's "Pure". But that really wasn't the "worst" thing I ever did cause it turned out that the bride and groom were into cyberpunk anyway. I mean what were the chances? Oh well. The old people hated it at least.

This isn't really me but my best mate once took a goat into the fresh vegetables section of the local Tesco supermarket and left it there to munch on all the food. Someone said it apparantly appeared on crimewatch, but I didn't catch it so I dunno if that's true. I've no idea where he got the goat.

I once helped exhume a grave.

No, really. Okay, so it was 2000 years old but I still feel guilty about it.

I was working in an archeological dig/tourist site teaching tourists how to dig sand and go "ooh 2000 year old pottery, amazing!". It was pretty boring so when the boss offered me a chance to do some real archeology I jumped at it.

Judiasm holds dead bodies sacred - they should be buried asap and never exhumed, so I felt a little guilty at what I was doing but I reassured myself that the grave wasn't a Jewish one.

The first point at which I felt creepy was when the boss pointed out buckets full of human bones. I brushed away at the soil for about 20 minutes feeling kinda crappy until we found a ring made out of copper. Finding jewellery made it hit home that this was actually a person I was digging up and I almost puked on the spot. I climbed out of the cave and told the boss straight away to get someone else to do his dirty work.

I know it's a silly thing to get upset about but I still feel that there's a black mark on my soul to this day.

Bah, worst thing i've done?
Hmmm... Besides biting my mom and breaking the skin, stealing a crap load of stuff, being about as prejudice as i can (Hey, its my right, the brits enslaved my people.), and cursing once about every damn hour...
I once didn't pay for Ice cream... God i'm evil :P.

Yeah, the Brits were the only enslavers in the world, and they were the last to drop the practice.

Rex Tirano 09-23-2005 05:25 AM

[Has anyone seen Neighbours recently? Dylan would fit this thread perfectly. :p]

Hn... Worse thing... For me, it would be when I gave my friend's knife into a teacher. She was very unstable at the time, and was rather annoyed with one boy who was bullying her and she brought a knife to school to stab him. And I took it from her and after a few weeks [only because I had a breakdown in the middle of drama], I gave it to one of my teachers.

It doesn't sound like much but for a month I avoided my friend incase she punched me, and she's still pissed about it even though it happened months ago.

I never said that.
I said that the Brits enslaved my people.
God, why do you just assume that I think the Brits were the only ones?

Godlesswanderer 09-23-2005 08:48 AM

Just curious afos, where are you from?

Dino 09-23-2005 10:09 AM

He's a white American kid who lives in a quiet, attractive suburb somewere. Which means that what he's saying makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, unless by "my people" he means the I.R.A. or Nazis or something.

Did the brits even enslave anyone? I know they colonized A LOT, but can you clarify this?

Mojo 09-23-2005 01:27 PM

Them Dutch people did... Stupid Dutch-people...

Well, I'm quite a good boy, worst thing I've ever done is running around on the streets in my bare ass... Well, at night, so there weren't alot of people...

Hobo 09-23-2005 01:48 PM

Us brits pwnd teh slave trade, but we also gave it up before many people, including America. But then again Americans nuked the Japanese and the Japanese pwnd everyone, so who needs prejudice! Hate everyone else equally...

They enslaved quite a number of black people - but one could argue that the standard of living that many had as servants was actually better than the standard of living they had as free men, women and children in Africa. Even those who were forced to work in appauling conditions were still better off than they would've been living in the bush.

They enslaved the odd few people from the countries that they occupied - mainly Indians. This is where Ghandi comes in and such.

But they didn't enslave or oppress any of AFOS's direct descendants.

Because you're stupid, and likely to be a liar.

My main point was that your 'people' (what a shit phrase) being enslaved gives you the right to NOTHING. Except maybe being enslaved again.

I asshat you Shrink. Yes, how COULD you brits enslave the gentle people of the ignorant, white trash, racist, intolerant, suburbian American? Why?

Another bad thing I did was that I once just upright called my mom a bitch because she called me an idiot for not knowing how to work the printer. I am not that soryt about that as much as other things, but I still don't like what I did.

a flock of seagulls 09-23-2005 09:42 PM

Bah, Everyones against me.
Brits enslaved the Irish before the blacks, I hail from Ireland.
And how could you prove they didn't enslave my direct ancestors?
Unless you have prove, you shouldn't act like you know my entire blood-line.

Hobo 09-24-2005 02:00 AM

It was a long time ago, my grandfather was captured by the German army in world war two, and luckily escaped as the the ship he was going to be transferred on got sunk, but we hold no grudge against the Germans in my family, my great uncle lost his hands and eyes while training to fight in a war not started by us, still no grudge. How about you grow up AFOS?

The British never enslaved the Irish, they merely occupied the conquered Ireland and held it under British rule. Some argue that because of the British rule, some of the Irish people had to live in poverty, but the fact was that these people would've been living in poverty had the Brits conquered Ireland or not. The only documents that suggest that the Brits enslaved any Irish are anti-British propaganda, and make horrifically incorrect statements like "the industrial success of Britain was mostly due to the mistreatment of the Irish" etc. and claims that the British enslaved Irish peasants. Where as actually the Industrial success of Britain had nothing to do with the Irish, and more to do with the people of Yorkshire, Lancashire, and Cornwall - No Irish people were ever enslaved by the British, but many hundreds of thousands of Africans were. These documents also tend to claim that many Irish people left Ireland because of British oppression and slave driving, when in actual fact it was as a direct result of the potato famine, and many of the Irish people who left Ireland came to Britain. Some of them left to escape British rule, on the belief that British rule restricted their rights as a citizen of Ireland - opinions on this are still divided.

It helps to get your facts straight before throwing wild statements around.

Back to the worst things ever?

Hmm, probably a teacher at my school. I hate the guy so much, he doesn't teach anything. Needless to say we've reported him to the right people plenty times but nothing has been done.

Me and a mate went looking for his house and gave his car a little treatment :D

SeaRex 09-24-2005 04:47 PM

Worst thing I've ever done? Laughed at this.

You see, I have this friend that is apparently a huge fan of YTMND, as well as laughing at human travesties and natural disasters (such as 9/11, Katrina, etc). He tried to show me a certain WTC YTMND, and this came up instead.

I think we both laughed for about four minutes, and I've never felt so guilty in my life. :p

You need to watch it for a bit, then one of the guys from Mario Bros that tries to squish you comes down on the trade center.

Perhaps I should have been a little less terse in my last post. WTF is YTMND?

Internet stupidity. Except the 'I'm a gangster' one that Neph posted ages ago.
It stands for 'You're the man now, dog'.

Silly internet fanboi talk for boring, tasteless crap that isn't very funny. Still that doesn't stop all the teenage geeks who're glued to their computers practically creaming themselves over it of course.

They make me laugh, bitterly. Little cabals of morons who think they're clever because they have this special little "underground" culture. If I had my/Jacob's way I'd turn them all into dog food.

Nate 09-26-2005 10:35 AM

So basically we're talking about the people who still talk in leet after anyone with any real computering talent gave up on it years ago? And/or the sort of person who still laughs at "All your base are belong to us"?

Hobo 09-26-2005 11:09 AM

All your base belong to us on its own isn't funny. But used in some kind of context could be amusing. YTMND is annoying though. And 1337 is totally labe. Labe like Peter's wang.

Anyway, worst thing i've ever done? God knows, probably intense bitching about everyone behind their backs. But there's probably something i don't remember

Shrink 09-26-2005 11:51 AM

All your base are belong to us was never funny, regardless of context.
Oh my God, certain Japanese phrases don't directly translate into flowing English sentances. The laughter.

I agree with Dino over that ytmnd thing.
