I Drank Meths (pointless teenage things you did to shock)As a teenager I spent a whole summer bare-foot to show I wasn't going to bow to rules imposed by society.
(soon forgot all about that idea when the pavements got icy, I tell you)
I was telling a friend this when he trumped my story - he used to put water in a meths bottle and drink it in public. See, that'll bring down society.
What similarly classy nonsense have you got up to in the name of rebellion?
Apologies for accidentally closing this question earlier

Not rebellion, exactlyAfter taking my final A level, I got all nostalgic for that period of my life (the last time I was afraid of exams) and wrote an eloquent letter to the college director asking if could buy the desk I sat my final exam at. I had remembered the number of the desk, so I knew which one.
The director was so touched by the letter that she read it out to the gathered teachers and I was invited to the school to pick through the hundreds of folded desks to find mine. I paid them a fiver for it and carried it home. That was 17 years ago.
It sits at home now with a laptop on it. The graffiti has faded, but there are the marks of decades of exam-sitters still on it. Can anyone else boast that they still sit at their A level exam desk after almost two decades? Or am I the only one with no friends or life?
