Being told off as an adultWhen was the last time you were properly told off? You know: treated as an errant child rather than the sophisticated adult you are.
The sort of thing that dredges up an involuntary teenage mumble of "Sorry, Miss" whilst you stare at the ground.
Go on, tell us what childish thing you were up to when you got caught.
Oh, and can we have more than one-line answers this time? Cheers!

An American told me off......which I think was a bit of a cheek because I was in Detroit and EVERYONE misbehaves there - it's de rigeur. Besides, the Americans I was with were being much naughtier.
See! See how this has reduced me to childish petulance, even three years later?
Anyway, I was in a bar and I pulled my top up for no other reason than I was tragically drunk, and he, being a security guard, came up and asked me to refrain. I put on my best Audrey Fforbes Hamilton voice and told him how terribly prudish he was being, but he was having none of it.
I was having such fun. My friends seemed disappointed too. I'm off to Texas for New Year - perhaps I'll compare those cowboys with the mid-west.
