In elementary school a classmate started going around and crushing the single serving potato chip bags of other kids at lunch time. Well do I remember my dismay at seeing a stream of orange dust pour out of my Laura Scudder's BBQ bag. Rather than vow to work for peace and denounce this evil practice I am ashamed to say I turned around and started doing it to other kids. Then I understood: It was fun!
What idiocy have you experienced that instead of shunning, you became a just another link in the chain of suffering?
One more. I believe it was in 4th grade that the infamous Texas Tittie Twister gained popularity at my school. It made me wonder about Texans! Still, I couldn't resist visting the pain on someone else after experiencing it myself. It was oddly enough, something guys only did to other guys. Come to think of it, I never saw girls emulate this behavior...
I've since stopped doing both BTW.

If you discover this amazing trick after consuming your first beer, it is delightfully funny, so I did it to someone else's beer, of course.
An older, wiser companion asked me if I wouldn't prefer to simply take our friend's beer and pour it out on the floor for him. I was ashamed of myself.
Purple nipple is the result alright. So Texans actually did practice this. I wonder if California has exported anything like this...
At last, a window into Ivy's passive aggressive style. ;)
well..someone is teasing you..just tease them back..lol...
I'm trying to make this sound nostalgic -- how'm I doing?
It was nostalgic. No point in rocking the beer boat. Girls often get out of buying beer. Your crush sounded stuffy and killjoy. Did you move on or consign yourself to a life of appropriate behavior? ha ha.
The unrepentant Ivy L. Thats what makes you so special!
Rima, my hand still makes involuntary crushing motions when I see a luch mate with a bag of chips. Its a temptation to this day.
Were you a spiteful little monster Amy? No one would believe it;)
Cindy, I am shocked and surprised at you!
