Crazy/goofy things you have done for entertainment
I used to throw dryer lint into the paddle fan when I was younger.
When my sister hurt her back, we would call 1-800 numbers on the back of products and say how much we liked them, or something was wrong to get free stuff.
When I had my cat, I would love playing with it with the lazer light, the kittie loved it!

What have you done that could be considered "fun for the feeble minded"?

7. That is so fun to watch!
I always liked how the cat would look around for the dot when I turned it off for a second.

2. As a kid, I pulled the speaker wires from my dad's stereo
and stuck them in an electric outlet. AC electricity is LOUD! :D And not too good on paper coned speakers.

11. Funny stuff
I had a rubber cockroach I would tie a string to and tape on the toilet lid, so when someone opened the lid the roach would fly out. That always got me some scorns...lol.

5. My best friend and I used to order free depends samples for our
for our parents. We stopped when her Dad, a heavyset Japanese guy, put his on and did his Sumo wrestler impression. Eeeeeeewwwwwwww.

Oh, and as a teenager I did my time in AOL chatrooms. Talk about fun for the feeble minded! :eyes:

6. The night before I left for basic training, this was back in 1987
My best friend and I, rather than doing the normal thing and getting drunk, just ran all over town taking businesses garbage dumpsters and pushing them out in the street.

Why it was fun, I have no clue, but there were about 15-20 dumpsters sitting in the middle of Main Street in Visalia, California when I left the next morning :).

10. I used to go to this knoll overlooking the highway where I grew up...
and bring a high-powered rifle with a scope. I would then proceed to shoot randomly at the drivers.

It was such fun!

12. we piled 10 girls into a hardtop KarmanGhia and drove around
town, serenading the Frat Houses. Then we went to Frisch's and had late night breakfast. At each of the Frat Houses and dorms we piled out of the car sang some songs and piled back in. Managed it all without leaving anyone behind.

TEN< TEN< TEN girls in ONE!

This was a real accomplishment since a couple of these women were close to six feet tall.

We had just finished a fabulous rush party and were celebrating in advance the fabulous pledge class we anticipated..which turned out to be every bit as fabulous as we hoped.

15. Replaced one of those sample shampoo bottels...
with Nair hair remover and left it in a mailbox of a cranky old woman who was the neighborhood kid hater. A few days later she had a very prominent bald spot on the back of head and we almost pissed our pants trying to avoid giving ourselves away.

Replacing Chiclets gum with Fenn-a-mint laxatives was another good old stand-bye to which we could always find a victim.

16. My cousins taught me this neat trick
We did this when it was near dusk on summer days and we had nothing better to do:
Two of us would stand by the side of the road till we could see a car coming in the distance. Once we were sure the driver could see us, one of us would run to the other side and then we'd both mime that we were pulling on a rope across the road. Cars would often stop. Some would slow down but a few would just barrel right through. When cars stopped we'd just run away of course. :-)

21. A friend of mine accidentally did that to an undercover cop car
Let's just say he never did it again.

17. I threw myself down a flight of stairs to cheer up a girlfriend once
She enjoyed slapstick humor, so it worked like a voodoo charm.

18. I danced in my underwear to reggae with my former dog.
He got excited and nipped me in the crotch. In retrospect, that was a bad idea.
