Name something stupid you did in the past and vowed to never do again.
for me it was polishing off a bottle of peppermint schnops with a friend. I can't stand the smell of the stuff to this day without getting sick.

1. Snort Altoids or ride in a desk chair tied to a freinds bike.
The latter was pretty fun, but goddamn did falling off hurt like hell. Scraped the backs of my legs so bad they scarred.

3. Yep
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 03:58 PM by PeterU
Last year, after hurling a good part of my meal in the bushes outside my friend's wedding reception (and splattering some of it on my rented tux), I came to the realization that "I'm too old for this."

5. Yep. Jane's Addiction concert. Berkeley.1989.
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 03:55 PM by Colorado Progressive
My head hurts thinking about it. 151 I believe.

edit: OMG! I just realized it was Love and Rockets, not Jane's Addiction. That is how fucked up I was!

9. go up on a 15 storey building with no railing to take pictures
I still think back and dread what would have happened if I'd been backing up to frame a shot.

Luckily, I'm not an idiot in that sense, but still :scared:

19. It was 2 years ago
:scared:


I was ultra careful, checking where I was before I moved my feet at all. Still, one screwup would have been all it took.

15. Snorted crystal meth. My stars, that was over 20 years ago.
All I got was serious jitters and a big fucking headache.

24. I did exactly the same thing. Never again.
I married a control freak awho ended up abusing me and trying ot kill me then I married a total loser-user (he seemed really nice at the time as compared to the first one.)

My divorce lawyer's advice to me: "Don't ever get married again. But, if you do, come to me and I'll draw you up an very good pre-nuptaul agreement. (because, as she explained ot me even a pre-nup will not protect all of your assets in a marital property state like Georgia.)

:(

26. Attended a "Christian" school
Not my choice. Today the older and wiser me would be chronically truant and would opt to sit for the GED.

28. Whitewater rafting on the New River without a guide
without helmets, without life vests in a raft about half the size we should have had......

I went under, tied by my ankle to a bail bucket so I couldn't surface and my head bouncing on rocks......

That was my last really stupid flirtation with death......I was 31.
