I've had 4 or 5 teachers in my life tell me I'm their 'favorite student', so even when I was in the third grade, I knew a sucker when I saw one, and I used to bum cheetos off some of the staff

I own 'Signs' on video and the first 2 seasons of 'The X Files'. I own a TV set that has a color knob and another to change channels, because there's never been a remote for it. And yes, I have an extensive collection of Nirvana records/CDs. Yes, I am very nerdy...

I let my kid open a xmas present early this year. He told me I was the only one that ever did that for him.

I sing to every Disney song I know when I hear it, no matter where I am, even if I have to whisper it under my breath. :3

I had to go to a funeral once...it caught me by surprise...and I had nothing to wear and no time to go home and change...so, I went to Wal*Mart and bought an outfit...Black Shirt, Black Slacks, Black Socks, Black Shoes, Black Belt.   It all cost about $70.   After the funeral, I returned everything to Wal*Mart and got my money back. The shoes were too big and didn't fit and when the lady asked me if I had worn them (because the bottoms were scuffed) I told her yes I did, that's how I know they don't fit.  She didn't want to but she gave me a refund on all of it.

I had to dig deep for this one....

When I was little, may be four/five not sure, a tot any ways....
I wanted to do something nice for my mom.
So,
I cleaned the bathroom from top to bottom...... Scrubbing away for hours, i was, got through a roll of toilet paper and cleaning fluid. Working my way around every little nook and cranny. Carefully, lovingly, I went in all those awkward places, under the rim of the toilet, around the taps, in and out. Until it was all done, shiny, spotless and ..........And then,
I put the brush I had been using back in the place I found it........
In the,
Ermmmmmmm........Tooth brush holder.


Not realising until now, That I had actually used my poor mums toothbrush, as the ever so nifty fine brush to get around all those tight bends.
Oh my,
Sorry mom.
I really didn't know.

I don't think I be telling her that one, any time soon. Oh dear, the shame....
Oh my.....

Don't feel bad; when my best friend's grandmother died I went to the funeral, and we were sitting in a back row together, and for God knows what reason I started laughing. Thankfully my friend understood, sometimes you think of something and can't help it.

When I was younger I told my little sister everytime she shirked her homework duties she was slowly killing Santa Clause. Not the best de facto parenting technique, let me tell you.

When I was in second grade I yanked the chair out from under this girl who was both retarded and had epilepsy.  She hit her head on the concrete floor.  My mother and teacher were standing there aghast at what I had done.  I still feel bad to this day...however, I did make it up later...I danced with her at our 25th High School Reunion.  It made her entire summer...I know it did because she sent me several cards telling me how she couldn't wait till the next reunion so we could dance again.  We haven't had another one since then.

I kind of collapsed a marriage

[Titanicneversank]

I've watched the Back To The Future movies at least four times each, including one Italian-language version on an overseas vacation.  Did I hear someone say "Get A Life?"

(Actualy I've done a lot worse, but seeing as it's Christmas Day I'll stick to something totally silly and harmless... )

When I was in my early twenties, just after a rain, I was driving along a country road.  A family in an SUV pulled out in front of me.  I had plenty of time to slow down...but I thought it was rude of them to make me slow down...they could have waited twenty seconds and the road would have been clear...so...

...I passed them on the shoulder...shot them the finger as I passed...and then hit the wet grass off the edge of the shoulder and went into a 360 spin into the ditch where I was stuck big time...I walked to a farm house and called a tow truck...he pulled me out and wanted 45 dollars.  I told him I only had 6 and he told me it wasn't even worth his while for six, to just keep it...
...I still feel like a jerk...but it is funny to think about now.

That is so very hilarious and sweet at the same time.
