What's the stupidest thing you ever did while growing up?

Once, on a dare, I sat on a ski lift during the off-season during a thunderstorm. Never thought anything would happen. Young and invulnerable. Nothing did happen, but I look back every now and then and wonder why I did it. What about you?

I couldn't even begin to tell you all the stupid things I did. It'd be the length of a novel!

I'm with you there on that one. At least one novel, maybe 4 or 5. :)

Definitely. I think most people could write a few novels... for all the stupid things they did before teen years, during teen years, 20's, 30's, 40's etc. etc. etc.

I think the stupidest thing I ever did while growing up was; "Shaving my eyebrows"...If fact I would say that it aslo qualifies as being the most embarressing!..lol...I was in the sixth grade and saw so many Mexican chicks with cute thin eyebrows and wanted to have the same for myself...so like an idiot!..lol I grabbed a shaver abd tried to do it myself, but naturally I messed up, I had one side barely sputting hair and the otherside as thin as a stand of hair...lol....eventually, my mom had to jump in and explain to me that the best and only option I had, was to shave it all off and use a eye pencil until it grew back...lol....No~one really said anything about it to me, but I did feel the smirking and giggling as I entered a room. I am now thirty but I still refuse to do my own eyebrows...lol...I often ask some~one else or go to the beauty parlor.

Oh no. That would be pretty embarassing and to wait until your eyebrows grow back. Myself, I love my wild eyebrow hairs... those ones that sprout up that are way longer than the rest. Hahaha, I know people stare at them but I don't mind looking goofy sometimes.
