Going Too FarEver had one of your mates go too far? Back when I was a teenager I went to stay with a friend in the country. We took his dog for a walk in some woods - which was fun.
We came across a breeding pen for the local pheasant shoot - which was interesting.
But then my friend broke into the cages, grabbed a pheasant, strangled it and proceeded to throw it around, only managing to rescue it from his dog's jaws seconds before a gamekeeper turned up to see what the hell was going on. Now, that was a bit too far...

Biology dissection againSheep's heart. Only one person in the whole class had refused to take part as she knew she absolutely could not stomach this. The day arrived as did 30-40 sheep's hearts, she refused point blank to take part in the dissection and debated this with the teacher.
Now for some reason, I'm not sure why the teacher must have decided that she HAD to atleast be there if not take part because she appeared not to have been allowed to leave. She got more and more pale every second, nowadays; a more sensitive man, I would have pittied her but at 14 I seemed to find this immensely amusing. In fact, so amusing did I find it that upon discovering you could stick you finger in the aorta and use the heart as a finger puppet I decided that she simply had to see my one man production. "Be my friend" the little heart puppet uttered in a voice strangely similar to my own and right next to her face, "be my friend, I love you" for added realism I wiggled my finger in time such that it gave the impression of speech.
That was definitely going too far especially when she ran outside and threw up all over the place. What do the critics know anyway, 'twas art, a beautiful and layered performance.
