Oh my. I once got jealous and angry because a girl was talking a lot to a guy I liked, so when she wasn't looking, I grabbed her handphone and took it to the bathroom, flushed it's battery down the toilet, and threw the phone up under the sink at the bar. She never found her phone that night, and later on another night when I went back, her phone was still up under the sink. I got it and took it home and trashed it at my house. It took her a while to get a new handphone, too, because she would use the bar's phone whenever she would come in there. Now, I don't even know what I saw in that guy in the first place.


That would be theft. Theft is criminal princess.

Reading skillz?
Oops...Guess I skipped over the non-criminal part. Oh well.

When i was in uni, my mom came to visit me once. She didn't tell me she was coming to visit, she just drove 2.5 hours and popped up at my place. At the time, my place was frequently used for drugs and debauchery, and her showing up without notice freaked me the hell out. So I screamed at her. She started crying and left. Probably one of the lowest points in my life.


Jesus Mikowee (and OP)!! You guys are brutal. I've been 20 different kinds of Assshole in my life, but I'm pretty sure I've never made my mum cry.

back in my single days.....

i was 'dating' a girl (meaning i'd been on a date with her) who i wasn't particularly enthusiastic about. she met me in hongdae with a friend of hers. her friend was a bit hotter and more fun to talk to than the girl i was 'with'. after quite a few shots of tequila chased down by as many 500cc glasses of beer, i decided to do the honorable thing and tell the girl i was 'with' that i wanted to sleep with her friend.
needless to say, this didn't go down very well. i (deservedly) felt like kind of a dick and decided to leave the two of them alone. the girl i really wanted to get with chased me outside and told me to come back in. but i thought i had done enough damage. so i took a taxi home. on the way, i got into a panic. i called 'my girl', and asked her if she had my mobile phone. she said something along the lines of 'what the hell are you talking about? you're calling me from your phone!'
it wasn't until several minutes after she hung up on me that i figured it out and saw the humor in it.
but yeah... i think that's about the lowest i've sunk. or at least a good example of a couple of similar situations.

I just hit my low- I was out late last night and didn't get up to see my Mom off to the airport. Not seeing your mother off to the aiport in a foreign country has got to rank pretty high on the "worst non-criminal things you can do" scale. God, I feel awful.


That's pretty crazy man.. I don't know if anything can top that.


Here's a somewhat similar, though far less brutal, story anyway. When I was in the US last time, I took a plane up to Tennessee to visit my grandparents. Real conservative, straight-laced Southerners. Naturally, they outright refused to let me have a drink or a smoke around them. So after a couple of days when it came time for me to catch the bus to the next place, I was dying for a stoge.

They drove me into Nashville and to the Greyhound depot, and I found out the bus didn't board for another 25 minutes or so. My grandma was crying, grandpa trying to play it tough but getting emotional (they're all alone up there, family rarely visits) so they said they would wait for me to get on the bus. I tried every polite decline I could make and they insisted, so finally I said they need to leave so I could have a smoke before getting on an 8-hour bus ride. So they left, and said they'd let me smoke.

I did feel like a sh[i]thead after that. Still do.

i don't think that's low at all. surely they could have 'tolerated' the presence of smoke for just a bit in order to see you off. i don't want to say 'shame on them', cause they're your grandparents, and the relationship between you and your grandparents is none of my business. but from a completely distanced and objective point of view.... shame on them.

Well, in a fit of final desperation, they did tell me to just go ahead and smoke. But come on.. who can smoke in front of the parents/grandparents? There's no way I could've enjoyed it, so I told them to just go. hehe..

i guess you've got a point there (provided your grandparents don't smoke).

but then again... weighing both sides of that. i would have probably dealt with the discomfort of smoking around them rather than telling them to get on their way.

hmm... that sounded worse than it was meant to. sorry. i'm going to go have a smoke.

I had a friend (seriously, this wasn't me) who got his best friend's girl to go down on him at his best friend's birthday party. His friend caught him. Not a real happy birthday.

By the way, my Mom made it to the airport fine. Thankfully, she's a very forgiving person.

I am surprised that your mother didn't wake you up - motherly love here again.. knowing that you slept late and didn't want you to be tired.

Glad she got home safely.

Many moons ago a friend was celebrating his 21st birthday. He put on a huge catered party- pig on a spit and everything. For his birthday-present his Dad had bought him all new stuff for his bedroom- TV, stereo, bedroom suite, bedding etc.
We were all pretty smashed at the end of the night, so 4 of us gathered all the left over meat, salads, puddings- everything- into a garbage bag. Then we emptied the whole lot on his new bed and covered it up with the duvet. Ruined the bed.
We met him in the supermarket a few days later, before he knew who did it. Felt really low, but didn't confess. That was quite a betrayal. He eventually learned it was us. Haven't ever heard from him again and I don't know where he is to apologise; I still feel quite rotten.

So that's not a figure of speech, right (although it should be- I'd like to hear someone say, "Boy, I really fingered the nun last night")? You actually fingered a nun? I'd like to hear more about this. Where did you meet a nun to finger? Did you come on to her or did she approach you?
