The gum in the hair post made me think...do you have any stories of sticky or messy situations you were in as a child?
ie. Tongue stuck to a metal poll in mid-winter, Gum in hair, or maybe you did something that you tried to hide from your parents? How did you get out of it?

When I was around 13, I was fighting with my big brother. I got mad at him and went to kick his shin but he moved and my foot went through the hallway wall. My parents weren't home at the time, so we ran to the basement and got the wall plaster and some masking tape, and tried to patch it up as best as possible. It's funny how the fear of our parents finding out brought us together. It took 2 days until my parents noticed it lol

There was a mean lady who would constantly scream at us at our school bus stop. One day she had her yard sodded. Some of us went over there and pulled up the sod, and stacked it on her front porch. She called the police. We climbed the water tower and watched them look for us. I finally confessed it to my parents after I graduated from college and moved about 1200 miles away. :)

When I was 21 I joined a sorority here, and we were doing a photo scavenger hunt with a few of the fraternities. One of the things that we had to get was a photocopy of your butt (jeans on, of course). Well I was new and I figured okay, I'll do this since I'm new. So we head to the university's science lounge where it was empty and I hopped on the photocopier. The first one didn't work out so I went on again, I suddenly hear this cracking sound and quickly jump up off as the glass shatters underneath me. We put down the lid, and I guess there was a student council meeting next door, so people come in and we're laughing so hard at this point. They just looked at us like we're being stupid and left. We slowly walked out of the lounge and around the corner and then booked it to the car. We made it so close, when campus security said, we know what you did, come with us. They put on the scare tactics saying that it will be on our permanent record, and cost us thousands of dollars to fix.

It ended up costing 300, and we had to have a meeting with the Dean of Science, in which he laughed and said 'you don't even want to know what I did when I was in University, this is nothing!' Not the most honorable thing that I've ever done, a pretty stupid thing really, but now I have a story.

When I was 4, I stuck my head through the metal fencing that's around hotel balconies so I could look at the turtles in the pond below and I couldn't pull it back out.

My twin and I used to have a bunk bed, and when we were young (5 years old or so), we'd slide down from the top to the bottom in between the wall and the bed, and one time I got stuck.

I've broken my arm three separate times. Once in the first grade when I jumped from a swing and thought I'd land on my feet (I didn't). In fifth grade I was playing tag and tripped and fell and broke my arm. A couple of weeks after getting that cast off, I fell while rollerskating and broke my other arm.

One time my dad and my sister tried to scare me while I was home by myself. They turned on the water hose and were spraying it at the window and throwing stuff at the window. I heard someone laugh and I swear it sounded just like that stupid doll in the SAW movies and I really started freaking out. When they came inside and I saw that it was them, I started crying. They wanted me to think it was storming. At one window?? They felt really bad. :p

In the church foyer, when I was in middle school, I was being goofy and jumping from one tile to the next, and at one point I slid, fell, and broke the water fountain.

When I played volleyball in highschool, a girl on the opposing team spiked the ball, it hit me in the face, I blacked out for a second, and when I came to I realize that my team had played the ball off of my head and ended up getting the point, somehow.

I also found out recently that tree sap is NOTHING like syrup and is really hard to clean off your hands.

Those are more embarrassing stories than sticky situations...:eek:

Too many to count! Here a few.

In Year 3 I dared my best friend to splat his rotten banana on my head during lunch time. I didn't think he'd actually do it! Stunk to high heaven for the rest of the day.

Around the same age I played 'Monkey Magic' (a Japanese martial arts TV series) scenarios against my middle brother. We we're just play fighting but I had the better weapon (a material roll, complete with metal banding). Needless to say the fighting got out of hand and my brother ended up getting 12 or so stitches in his forehead. I got in a lot of trouble for that and my parents banned us from watching the show. It holds up pretty well as an adult, if you enjoy so bad it's good English dubbing.

In Year 8 I received my Tetnis shot but it wasn't as simple as all that. I hate shots at the best of times but all the students made it worse, they were telling me how terrible it was. My fears were high. I went in. They gave me the injection. I fainted and they couldn't remove the needle. I came to and freaked out, almost fainting again but they removed it. I went back to Maths class, went to ask a question, fainted again as I was asking the question and awoke to find myself in the School sick room.

Here is one of many "sticky" situations:

I was in junior high school and it was the middle of winter. We had been getting a lot of snow and the plow fleet was out in full force. A friend and I were walking through the neighborhood one day and I was acting quite silly as I usually did. I grabbed a chunk of snow that was on the side of the road, which was about a foot in diameter. Thinking it would be funny to splatter this snowball on the windshield of somebody's car, that had not had the snow cleaned off yet, I ran and chucked the snowball right in the center of this woman's windshield. Instead of crumbling on impact, this "snowball" sunk right down into the inside of the car! This was no ordinary snowball as the core must have been a chunk of ice. I remember thinking that it was quite heavy for a snowball as I was picking it up.

My heart immediately began racing as I am sure I blurted out a few obscenities. I didn't know what else to do other than run home and hide. My friend and I made it to my place just around the corner and not more than 15 minutes later, the sheriff was knocking on the door alongside the woman who's window I had just shattered. Since my parents weren't home, I answered the door and put on the calmest, most collected face that I could muster. The woman said that she had seen me throw the snowball at her window and take off running. I responded by telling her that she must have confused me for my little brother, who wasn't home at the time. Somehow, I played it off and they ended up leaving without any sort of charges being pressed.
