What Was The Weirdest Thing You Did As A Kid? (Ended)

Oh boy... I definetly have a few.

1:
I used to play this game called "Trash Can Fishing" with my friend Annie. We would dig around in the trash cans at school and fish out anything looking particularly delectable, especially chips. No, we did not wash it off.

2:
I read Harry Potter for the first time in second grade and I loved it!!! ...Buuuuut I was then afraid to go to the bathroom because basalisks. I always checked being the faucets for carvings of snakes.

3: I layed down on cement becaus It was warm.

4: One of my favorites: I wore heels to school every day pf third grade. Yes, even during P.E. Never sprained an ankle once

5: When I was in fourth grade, some sixth grade guys started picking on me. I told them to quit it. They continued to make fun of me. I just smiled innocently and told them, "I hear that the big kids like you are awfully afaid of teachers..." and they just laughed and pointed so I quick marched up to the office. One of them cussed and strted running. The other made somme scrawny excuse. As they turned back to look at me, I waved sweetly at at them and called, "Bye bye!"

When I was very very small I picked unopened buds off the hydrangea bush in our yard and took them in to my mother to cook for supper because I thought they were broccoli.

I used to collect snails I found in the garden, put them in a giant glass box as pets. Go to all the neighbours and ask for permission to catch snails in their gardens. I would then cry every time they went missing every morning I woke up. I had no lid for their "home"..

I use to play an air guitar and i did it for 4 hours and i ate a sandwich at the end

Whenever I slept, I always wore a heavy blanket, even if it was extremely hot outside. The reason was because I was afraid of aliens biting off my toenails while I slept. I needed to cover my legs.

I spent a lot of time playing with chickens. My favourite game was to turn them into stunt chicks. I picked them up and ran around with them for hours, holding their wings closed, to let them experience what it was like to be flying like a stunt plane. I would hold them like that and let them run up the diagonal supports of the fence. So after a couple of days they actually learned to escape, running up the supports, wings flapping. :D

When I was a little girl, I went on a long car trip with my grandmother and other relatives. I had learned to read recently, and I was showing off my new skill by reading out loud every billboard we passed. After about an hour of this, my grandmother snapped at me: Dont you think you've read enough billboards? We all know you can read.

When I was.about 7, I decided to walk to my mom's friend's house. I got hopelessly lost. I remember being taken home by a police officer. Boy did I get in trouble.

Does trying to eat your own poop as a toddler counts?

Me and my siblings put on a "play" for my parents. This included banging around on pots and pans, having each other ride on top of us, and wiggling around of our backs like turtles, and spitting and pooping cars. Yeah. We were weird kids.

When I was 8 I had an Im a celebrity get me out of here birthday party and forced to eat bugs and gross food served by my EVIL brother who was 6 at the time who tried to make my friends to eat urine and then he asked one of my friends to pee in a jar so he could trick me into drinking it

I have two... the first one: I used to plug my nose like you would when you jump in water and put my hand up behind my head to make a "fin" and pretend I was a shark... have no idea what was with the plugging of my nose or where I got the idea but 30 + years later I still treat shark week like a personal holiday... and also terrified of sharks... wth??
The second, not sure how "weird" it is but I get it from my father. I rock in my sleep (yes I wrote that correctly as in present tense because I STILL do it) I broke three cribs as an infant from doing it and still do it. Sucked while dating to try to explain this to people. My husband is awesome he knows that I do it and he also knows that if I do it a lot in a short amount of time (days) that I'm overly stressed. He also knows that IF it wakes him (I found a sound sleeper thank God) all he has to do is touch me ever so slightly and I'll stop. It's weird because I never knew I did it until my teens. I spent the night with a friend and she told me. I went home embarrassed and my dad was like, "Oh you get that from me... I broke beds too." I was like fantastic thank you. lol I've tried everything to not do it, but I can't break it. I've noticed one of my kids do it too. They never broke a crib but still inherited it. I just hope she doesn't get my insomnia as well.

My nephew was attending the Camp Fire Daycare & would religiously get on all 4's growling & barking like a dog. Then Govenor (Texas) Ann Richards visited & he locked teacher in broom closet & turned into a watch dog lunging at anybody trying to rescue taech, growling & biting. That was his last day there.

I used to dip plain white bread into koolaid! I know it sounds gross but at the time I thought it was great!

My dad was once called the garbage disposal because he would eat everything. I was just like him and would eat out of garbages, go to international markets, and would literally try (almost) everything edible in front of me! I still do some of these things!

Created a story about a monster who comes out at night and kidnaps the kids who are still awake.
The weird thing is that I believed it. I believed the story that I created from my own imagination.

I used to take a big hand mirror, hold it horizontal and look into it while walking around the house. I'd pretend I was walking on the ceiling, stepping over the doorways and lights.

I was about five and I would take my dad’s ashtray and hide behind the living room drapes. Then I'd scrape at the cigarette ash that was ground into the bottom of the ashtray with my fingernail-and eat it!

Also, at that age I took a wire hangar and held it in front of the wall plug, and then plugged the vacuum in to see what would happen. After the first electrical shock, I never tried THAT again.

I guess I had a death wish. LOL

As a kid I always had to clean up all the dog poop every week before mowing the lawn. I hated this so much! The only way to get through the chore was to imagine they were cities that I, Alexander the Great, was conquering to build my mighte empire! And then I would mow the lawn.

Ok here we goooooooo

Eating ice (this was when I was 13-15, due to an underlying medical condition I had at the time)

Wishing that I could be like my idols (2014/2016) little did I know I achieved that dream in July 2018

Give my villagers in animal crossing new leaf weird catchphrases e.g I made Bluebear’s “AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!” (She has since moved away from my town and I miss her)
