True Confessions, When We Were Wild (the best, woman, kids, high school)

This is a great thread. Very funny.

When I was younger, telephones were hardwired to the connection at the baseboard and most homes had just one phone. We would call people and tell them that we were the telephone company and that we were going to feed more telephone line into their house. We'd ask them to pull on the cord when we gave them the go ahead. We'd say"Okay, now pull hard." They would always do it- pulling the cord out of the wall.....

One time the person kept pulling, but no luck...so I asked them to get a broom and wrap the cord around the handle. Once that was done, I gave the go-ahead .."Okay, now grab it with both hands and pull...." success....line went dead. ha! I haven't thought about that in years.

I have played different tricks on a number of people with today's technology. Just by dialing your own phone number, listening to the message, then hanging up, your phone will ring. Anyone can do this on a regular phone. Of course, as long as the person you are playing the trick on doesn't see you dial your number first and press the button they just think the phone rings and never suspect you did it. I then come out of the room I was in dialing and answer the portable phone I am on, or pick up another one up. You then just talk and listen as if you are on the phone with someone else. The person you are playing the trick on thinks it is a regular phone call and can get the gist of the conversation by what you say and your reaction. One year for April Fool's Day I did this and convinced my husband we were being audited by the IRS. Another time I convinced my husband (my favorite victim ) that I was being fired from my job by my boss.

Wow, I'm not ashamed anymore... I'm am angel compared to some of you.

Okay I grew up in a small, podunk town in NW Iowa, the population was about 1500. On Friday nights we'd take all of our cars on Main Street (the hangout) and either do "mains" or park at a repair shop and hangout. Basically about 20-30 of us just driving around or talking but sometimes we'd like to change it up so one Friday night we literally BLOCKED OFF main street. We put our cars end to end and just sat there; people were honking and cussing but we could care less until someone called the local popo on us and he chewed us all out and threatened to give us all tickets.

Other Friday nights' we might go to another podunk town and **** the high schooler's there off until they chased us out (and they literally CHASED us). Sometimes we'd even play ding-dong-ditch at midnight (the fun part was evading the popo that was out looking for us).

Saturday nights' we'd go out and party like there was no tomorrow. Then on Sunday we'd all see each other in church with red eyes and smell like we just took a bath in a vat of Bud Light.

We might've broken a few laws but we sure as Hell had a good time.

This one was played on me and my friends by my sister and her boyfriend Tony when I was about 12 or 13. It was around holloween time and we were in our garage telling scary stories Tony suggested we drive pass the neighborhood haunted house (doesn't every town have one when your a teenager) Well, we all piled into his car and he drove pass there sooo slow (no street lights on the block) stopped in front of the house honked the horn we started screaming and he took off to the end of the block but instead of turning the corner without us seeing he put his car in reverse and said "Oh my god it's pulling my car back to the house OMG we started to scream and climb out of the car windows until Tony and my sisiter started to crack up laughing at us. I can still remember how much that scared all of us and I still think that old house is haunted

When I was a junior in high school, we played a joke on one of our English teachers by writing love notes and putting them on the windshield of his truck to make him think somebody had the hots for him! He was single and around 35-40 years old at the time, and everybody knew that he was an eligible bachelor, and looking for that special woman. Now remember, this was in 1974, and the thought of one of his students having the hots for him definitely never crossed his mind, and he didn't say much about it, but we all knew that it drove him up the wall! Some of those notes were not exactly G-rated either!

We all liked him, and he was a good teacher, and we started doing this a couple of weeks before Valentines Day in 1974 and continued until school ended. Yeah, I know it was cruel, but hey for 16-17 year old teen-agers, it was fun! At one point he thought another teacher was writing these notes and putting them on his windshield, but I think he talked to her and found out that it wasn't her.

I don't think he ever found out who was doing that, and it wasn't until almost the last week of school when he figured out that somebody was just playing a joke on him.

Mr. Spencer, if by any slim chance you're reading this right now... Please accept our apologies

When I was 16, my friend and I were cruising around one night and saw a bakery truck with the back open and a tray of lemon merrangue pies in plain view. We stole six of them and cruised around to gas stations, finding guys pumping gas and would walk up to them and pushed a pie in their face.

Another time, when I was involved with a legislative talent show, we paid a college guy ten bucks to run across the stage in the middle of a skit being done by legislators and push a whipped cream "pie" into a state rep's face. This was short sighted, as we used a tin pie pan and it cut the bridge of his nose...
