What's the most spontaneous thing you've ever done?

[Delsana]

I went skinny dipping at 2am the other week.

There was also when I got my mohawk:

Damn, I miss that thing.

Since the topic was the skinny dipping the picture should of been the skinny dipping.

I was listing 2 things and I actually had a picture of my mohawk.
Also: SHOULD HAVE. Not should of. Not ever should of. Never should of, no, never, ever should of.

You mean to say:

Also: It's not "should of". No, it's never "should of". Instead it's "should have", but not ever and yet never "should of".

In any case... I've never been corrected before.

Gave a guy my email, with the excuse that it was for a project.

Also, deciding to go to church when I fully knew I was an atheist just to be close to a guy.

I'm not a very spontaneous person.

This has made me realize I'm more spontaneous when in love.

*Blushes*

Wow you blasphemed for a guy...

I bet he'll hate you after he learns that.

I was dramatically emphasising my point, it didn't need to make sense. Also "not ever and yet never" is redundant. Don't mess with my lingo, *****, I'm an English teacher!

Do many "dogs" or to be more accurate "female dogs in labor" communicate with you over the net?

An obnoxious English teacher, perhaps.

Redundancy is the law of society, if you EVER want to get something across.

I have only done one truly memorable spontaneous act: Participating in a prank over granola bars...

Around the end of senior year, I was hanging out with my group of friends during lunch, like every other day that year. "Friend 1", while Friend 2 went off to get a snack from one of the vending machines, decided to take one of 2s granola bars from his lunch bag. 2 didn't seem to notice, and we finished our day without 2 calling out 1 for his grave misdeed.

Now: 2 always brought lunch to school, because the school-served lunch was atrocious on a regular basis. He also had a penchant for pulling minor pranks on people that upset him. These granola bars were his crack, and he did not enjoy losing any of them. This was a call to war for him.

2 calls me later that day, and tells me that he knew that 1 took his chocolate granola bars, but just played dumb to prepare for a prank. He tells me to meet him at 1s house the next day, and bring clear tape.
When another friend and I arrive, 2 led us into 1s house, and tells us to start taping up some posters he brought all over the walls.

Each poster had either a creepy/demonic image and related text, or a granola bar on it. The granola bar posters (about 20) were each placed in 1s room, and all said "WHERE'S MY GRANOLA BAR 1!?!? I KNOW YOU TOOK IT!!!!!". One was placed on his pillow that had an image of the devil from Legend on it, and told him to "GO TO BED WITH YOUR LOVER!!!". Each poster was creepier and more rambling/insane than the last.

We drove out of there just as 1 was supposed to be heading back to his house. About 5 minutes into the drive, 2 and I get a call from 1. He's freaked out, and asks if any of the guys had been in his house lately, to which we decline.

At this point, he starts to panic, and asks if any of us are nearby to check on him, asking about criminals in the news, etc. It's at this point that he pauses in his freaking out, and asks 2 if he knows anything about granola bars. 2 and I lose it, and give 1 a speech about not stealing a persons granola bars. 1 said that he was in his kitchen with a penknife, and was convinced that a killer was on the loose or something.

All was forgiven later. It was awesome.

I once combusted. That was pretty damn spontaneous if I do say so myself...

 

[ShadowStar42]

Moved to California on a whim to meet a girl I had been chatting with online. Got there with a bag of clothes, a bag of games and $20 in my pocket, ended up homeless for about a year before I got back on my feet. On the other hand I was with the girl for about 7 years so all told it wasn't a bad deal.

While homeless, what did you do?

Looked for work, slept in a park under the play set, and ran games of 7th Sea RPG for dinners. One thing I'll say about being into table top RPGs is that anywhere you go you can always find a group of friends.

One time my sister and I went to a popular beach cove in between two very large cliff sides that have excellent views of the ocean. At the actual beach itself there are a few smaller cliffs that people like to jump off of to get in the water. I decided that just before my sister and I left I would try jumping off at least once like the other people were doing. I knew that I wasn't a very good swimmer so I decided to jump where the water was more shallow and if something bad happened I would have a better chance of getting back to shore.

Unfortunately the tide swept the water away very fast as I jumped meaning that I landed straight on the sand, which hurt quite a bit stunning me long enough for the the water to come back and sweep me off my feet. Fortunately I was swept back to shore and I got off with a limp in my leg rather than a broken leg. Not going to do something like that again.

I combusted once... not sure about anybody else.

Marry my husband. He got off the plane from military training to come and visit me, and I drove him to the court house. A justice of the peace married us. It was better than our actual ceremony, with family and friends.

This thread makes me sad because I haven't done anything spontaneous
Uhmm...one time......ah I got nuthin.

Does that mean I'm a boring person?

 

[LongAndShort]

I once combusted. That was pretty damn spontaneous if I do say so myself...

I thought the same thing of my own combustion. Then I learnt of an alarmingly complex chain of events (involving, amongst other things, an angry horse and a photo of cumulus nimbus cloud on a bright, sunny day) that could have had no other outcome other than me combusting. It was a shame, as I was much happier thinking it was spontaneous.

OT: I'm quite predictable. Even the wild stuff is usually because people know I'm up for almost anything.

 

[Jinxd]

woke up in wales
woke up in random forests (i always had a tent somehow)

I've burst out into song in the middle of a gift shop. Strangely enough it was a Disney gift shop. I guess the musicals Disney loves to release are contagious. Either way, I was tired and buying something from the gift shop, so I shut my eyes for a second and apparently started singing. After I got the strange looks, I purchased my items and left. Fast.

 

[Delsana]

Decided I was going to get a motorcycle, just one day it seemed like a good idea so I took a rider's course and went out and bought a Harley.

Why not a sport bike?

 

[Leemaster777]

Oh, I know what MINE is.

Me and my sister shaved my head. The very INSTANT I took the razor to my head, and shaved a clean line from front to back, I thought "Wow, this was a HUGE mistake". But at that point, there was no going back. So, I finished the job.

The second confirmation I got that this was a horrible idea was when I stepped out of the bathroom. My dog ran up, and started barking angrily at me. HE DIDN'T RECOGNIZE ME. I swear, I have never seen a bigger look of confusion on a dog than when my dog realized it was me.

Back in high school during a class where we were doing a bit of 3D animation, my teacher noticed I was pretty good and asked if I wanted to sign up for a national competition that was coming up. Without any real experience or ever having been taught I said yes.

About a week later I was representing my province in a national competition and ended up on tv briefly (fortunately not the part where the camera guy walked up from behind me while I was working and scared the shit out of me by shoving a camera in my face).

Anyway, had a great time and even managed to win a bronze medal.

When I was 3 I jumped off the back of a slide, because I wanted to see if I could catch the rungs on the ladder before I hit the ground... I couldn't.

I ended up breaking the cartilage in my left heel and was in a cast for over a year. Needless to say that after that, whenever I was curious about something... I asked someone about it before conducting my own "experiments".

Aren't life's little lessons grand?
