When you were young...

[Erana]

I was a very boring but smart child.
All I remember is, in preschool, trying to figure out how the Hell the other kids had issues with putting the foam letters into the appropriately shaped holes. I even remember being very annoyed when other people couldn't do it under my instruction.

Heh, I was like that, but with Mecano. And more violent.

You sit there in your, heartache!, ya im done with that refrence too.

i realized how the world worked when i was young. My brother and i were told by our mother to clean the living room. I started cleaning and he sat in a chair and said "ill supervise" and i actually believed him!

Actually, as a child I was very average, well behaved and didn't seem to do anything overtly daft.

However, at the age of 15 or so I discovered bicycles, suddenly a world of cliffs, half pipes, trees and For Escort windscreens opened up before me...

This. >D

Oh, just though of one. I was in year 3 I stuck a pencil in my ear and snapped the tip off. It got suck in the wax and it was only a month later when I started complaining about ear aches that it was removed. My dad rushed me to the local emergency, bless his misguided self.

When I was a kid, I remember taking the family dinosaur for walks...

Seriously, I was the kid who was always 'borrowing' the screwdrivers and things and taking apart all my toys, trying to figure out how they worked... and usually putting them back together again better than the factory.

Also due to this, until I was about 11 or so, I thought that the capacitors on a printed circuit board would produce different effects if tilted one way or another...

Referred to food as "nom nom nom". No I'm not kidding.

 

[jim_doki]

I saved my bother's life, he fell into our pool

I played Trumpet

I didn't have too much funny things i can remember

 

[PersianLlama]

I never stopped talked. Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever.

Seriously, I talked non-stop on our first 12-hour flight,
"What's that?"
"What does this do?"
"How does it fly?"
"What's turbulence?"
"Why?"
"Why?""
"Why?"

Exactly the same, I asked loads and loads and loads of questions.

Yup, same here. All my cousins told me as I grew up and became more mature that I couldn't ever shut up as a child.

I got a seahorse sticker from my kindergarten teacher, rolled it up, and stuck it in my nose really far. So far, in fact, that I went to the doctor. I also told my mum and dad that I wanted to be the inventor of plastic.

I do not know how I would achieve that.

Ok so in the past (aka yesterday) I rode down staircases in random objects. As I got older, it would get more extreme. Larger staircases in less safe objects.

I found two pieces of wood and a stair case with a landing and then another stair case...I wanted to go down the first one and then jump and to the plank I set up and go down the next one...I made it down the first set AND made the jump...but the plank just broke and I went down the stairs on my face =P

But as for when I was a kid...I'd put my cat in the clothes dryer...

 

[Labyrinth]

I started asking questions and just never stopped. The questions have become much more refined however.

 

[Doeo]

Tried to grab a quarter I dropped into the fireplace.

 

[Fuzzykittensmith]

No matter the situation, I was always soon distracted by waterfowl.

 

[Monkfish Acc.]

As a kid, I was far too submissive and shy to do anything interesting. I could list what my brother and sister did, but it would take way too long.

* At the age of two I tried to suffocate my baby brother (damnit, *I* was the one who should'v been getting the attention, not that little brat!)
* Didn't talk until 2 and a 1/2, then my first words came out when I was in a medics office and he was trying to work out if something was wrong with me "Daddy says the blue pills don't work"
* I, like others here, had "the knack". I would pull crap apart and put it back together.
* Balanced Mums china plates on one hand and practised tumbling with them. To this day surprised I didn't break anything.

There are others, but most of them have been over-said so I won't bother repeating them.

 

[VoleurdeThym]

I had this adorable knack at creating/developing complexes in other people.
Example-
"Mom, he's bald"
"Okay, shut up"
"BUT MOM, HE'S REALLY BALD."
It'd go on for sometime.

I wont even go into when I saw my male babysitter in the shower.

I once tried to kill a fly with a baseball bat in our garage. I ended up breaking a window instead. I did alot of stupid stuff as a kid without realizing it, but I distictly remember standing there, staring at the broken window, and suddenly realizing the complete stupidity of my actions. It was one of those duh moments when you cant imagine how something that stupid seemed like a good idea at the time.

Dude, why was he showering while he was babysitting your? Thats really messed up.

I liked to play with slimy creatures, and in mud. I got him dirty, and he somehow didn't have the foresight to think a three year old wouldn't go into a bathroom when someone's showering.
Nothing bad, I promise.
