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!

My wife is a teacherWe were walking in the woods one day with the kiddies when a bloke comes roaring up on a trailbike and starts squirting dirt everywhere, coming within metres of us. My wife waves at him, he pulls up, she says 'You do know motorbikes are not allowed here, don't you.' He shakes his head. 'Take your helmet off please,' she says, and the bloke obliges, looking remarkably shamefaced - he was in his thirties.
She then berated him for (what seemed like) 10 minutes about the dangers of biking around little kids, and how ignoring roadsigns is an indication of the moral degeneration of the nation. To show my support I wandered off into the woods, whistling, trying to hide.
