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...

Imagine this...a child at Christmas eagerly awaiting the promised present. A digital camera. Have wanted one for ages, droped not so subtile hints, and just KNEW I was getting one. I go downstairs on Christmas morning to find many a present under the tree. My dad smiles and hand me one that is camera-shaped and said "I knew you wanted one." I open it with an expression of pure joy. This quickly changes to surprise (like biting into a chocolate and finding a turd filling) and anger (Hulk-like in intensity). What was in the box that had so changed my emotions? It was indeed a "digital camera" as my dad had proclaimed, but this was no ordinary digital camera. No, my dad had to be an ass. It was a disposable camera crammed into a rubber glove with a hole for the lense. My dad was laughing his ass off and smiled a shit-eating grin then said "Don't you like the digital camera?" I think that's when I developed the eye-twitch.
A later present turned out the be the real digital camera, but damnit that pun was going to far.
