Devient Behaviour


Gail

Recommended Posts

My daughter has been studying devient behaviour in school. Some of the examples that she told me about were not really that far out of the realm of "just having fun"

What kind of stupid stuff (or just plain fun) have you been guilty of- you know, long, long ago when you were young and stupid?

Let's see. . .

"I can eat more dirt than you can."

Sewing the tips of our fingers together with needle and thread (through the skin).

Seeing whose hand could get bluest, coldest, and bulgiest by cutting off the circulation (during long church meetings).

Having an onion-cutting contest (raid the garden for onions first). First kid who can't keep his or her eyes open is the loser.

"Operating" on all kinds of insects, reptiles, amphibians and rodents, to see how they were made. (Nowadays they would keep an eye on me, in case I turned out to be a sociopath.)

Icing the driveway in preparation for fun winter sliding, but forgetting to notify the postman.

Making "cigarettes" with a roll of paper around a piece of dry ice and pretending to smoke it.

Making medicine for our kid-sized "hospital" by putting fruit juice in little brown bottles and setting them in a row on a sunny window sill. In a few days that stuff was rank enough to taste suitably medicinal.

Pretty innocent - but not exactly smart.

And Amelia, you are funny. Subtle, but funny. <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

I dont recall doing anything warranting attention - I was probably a very boring child <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. But Gail if you are having that party can I come and set out to make myself laugh until I cannot stop ? I do remember trying that once and frustrating my mother considerably, it really is possible to engender mirth <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I plead the fifth! If I told, you wouldn't believe my pranks!

The greatest want of the world is the want of men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true & honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty..., men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall.{Ed 57.3}

For our friends from Canada and Austraila that don't know, "the fifth" doesn't refer to a bottle of booze. It refers to an Ammmendment in our Constitution which gives us the right not to incriminate ourselves.

Well, you know these ideas are also good for Darlene, I think... She's always looking for fun stuff to do with singles

Got married

(Grins, ducks, runs for cover)

But seriously... I was too busy with school and with the activities my father got us in to for anything that really fits the stupid label.

Unlike the talent show at the summer camp my daughter is TA'ing at, where 26 academically extremely gifted kids lined up with one toothbrush and one glass of water and one tube of Crest and, in turn, said "I like Crest - it keeps my teeth and my [each kid filled in their choice of item] clean", cleaned their teeth and whatever, and passed the equipment to the next kid...

I think the statute of limitations may have run out on this one by now... We broke into the school after Grade 12 graduation (I know, stupid in the extreme) and in the art room made a large, ahem, phallic sculpture from clay and left it there. That wasn't the best bit though: one of the teachers carried it all the way up to the principal's office through the school when it was discovered, much to the mirth of all the students.

You're safe, now, Bravus--seven years is the statute of limitations on everything (except murder). I notice you say you are a teacher now. Is that ironic justice, or what?

We may be able to escape the long arm of the law (except for murder) but we cant escape the memories.

Bareback naked could not have been comfy to begin with. What were you thinking? <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/AAdoh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/mittelgr124.gif" alt="" />

Amelia, must you ask? Was it yesterday or this morning that you were born? <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

And Restin, sounds to me like this was a time when the work fell on its but... er, foundation. "Ooooch, ouch, ouch, ouch! Ouch, ouch, ooooofff!!"

<img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/AAdoh.gif" alt="" /> ("There's gotta be a better way than this!!") ... or is this what got the foundation weak in the first place?

Last year at my daughter's school, the kids wanted to bury the principal's car. They hit a water main and broke it.

One of the kids left her cell phone at the scene

BUSTED!!!

[:"blue"]Main Entry: de·vi·ant

Function: adjective

: deviating especially from an accepted norm <deviant behavior>[/]

With a definition like that, just about everything can be considered deviant. I mean, what exactly is "the norm"? My norm? Your norm? Norm from Cheers? <img src="/ubbtreads/images/graemlins/tomato.gif" alt="" />

Ok, on a side note.

If a clothed person runs through a nudest camp - is is still streaking?

None of our opinion of you will change...although we might be enlightened as to what you are capable of ...

Devient Behaviour

Does riding a bike slowly thru an active jump rope and getting caught by same rope under the chin qualify?

Does placing a lighted short fused firecracker in a coke bottle and capping it, qualify?

Does making out in a poison oak patch qualify?

Does placing paper into the locking mechanism of a school so that you can return to browse thru school while no one else is there on a weekend and allow others to come back and mess up a teacher's room or two, unknown to you , qualify?

Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve.

Heh, yep. I think it's practically *compulsory* for teachers to have a mis-spent youth. Either that, or for those who mis-spend their youth to become teachers - not quite sure which way around it goes... Anyway, let's call it a tale of redemption!
