Lighthearted, and risk free. Given that this is all anonymous and all that.

When I was fourteen, I was out with my friend after drama club. It was winter and dark and fucking freezing but I was sweating as well as shivering. We were walking to her grandma's house in the next village where I was getting picked up by my stepdad in about an hour. I was quite clearly ill, but my mum had not believed me and sent me to a long day at school. As we were walking, my belly churned and I knew that there was gastric trouble afoot. I excused myself into an innocent looking field for "a wee" but I knew it was not that. Thankfully, there were no street lights at all, so even if someone had come past, they'd not have seen. It was pitch black. My friend kept watch while my bowels evacuated what seemed like water and slime for about five minutes and sweat dripped off my body onto the ground, I can remember how much I was shaking and how I had the weirdest taste of metal in my mouth. When the onslaught ended, I didn't know how to wipe my bum. I took off my school tie, wiped with that and then had no idea what to do so I just discarded it at the scene and shamefully scuttled back to my friend. I was then off school for a week with some kind of horrible intestinal infection.

But the field. The quiet little field I'd chosen to slip over the fence into. It was a graveyard. And I'd relieved myself right next to a war grave. Right before armistice. And left my school tie there. How do I know? Because it was in the school newsletter as a "regrettable incident" and anyone with information as to who the culprit was could report in confidence to the headteacher. I expect the groundskeeper reported it to the school. Even my mum tutted about no respect. Thank god it was over 20 years ago. Nowadays it would have trended with a hashtag and a witch hunt.

And now I have finally told the tale. What's yours?

@Lifetheuniverseandeverything

Fair enough but so did he. When you hit your forties yourself you know how gross it is.

Prize onion is still the best confession so far!

Exactly this

I thought your story was funny @Suetully

You was a child and of all the stories to get picked on yours really wasn’t that bad.
But being a man you are the devil Grin

Thanks, yes I should have known not to identify my gender as people would say it was abuse, misogyny, etc and it was 'scary'.... when all I did was ring her house and made my friend who she knew look like a needy idiot and we were kids at high school, it's not like we were in our 30s. As I said if genders were reversed here nobody would moan.

@Suetully

I think suetully that if you had not used the phrase "creepy and stalkerish" when describing the phone call you made I would have thought nothing of it

It was more 'cringy and humiliating' than creepy/stalkerish but words like 'creepy', ''stalkerish', 'misogyny' 'abuse' get thrown about so much on mn that they have lost all meaning really in fairness.

Bet you're a nice guy Hmm too.

My Dsis exBF tried it on with me one night after they had broken up. I turned him down flat but I will never ever tell her because while they were together he treated her very well and I don't want to ruin her memory of him.

@ShaneTheThird

Oh I do have a minor one. When I was 12 I slept over at my best friends house and we hacked into a mutual friends msn account. Said friend was obsessed and spent every day going to the library to use msn. So we hacked her account to see who she was speaking to and found hundreds of names. Instantly a few popped up to chat and we realized they were adult men and not other 12 year olds. So we decided after a few disturbing conversations when we realised most of her contacts were random men we changed her password then deleted her account. She was so angry when she couldn't retrieve her account and we pretended that it must have been a glitch and we had problems on our msn. Neither of us ever told her the truth that we deleted her account.
I really like this one, you protected your friend and you should be proud of yourselves! Star

I left raw prawns out in the hot sun from early morning until dusk and made my ex (who was cheating) a curry with them, I at a veggie curry but pretended it was the same dish.
I also put tuna fish under the carpets of every room in his flat before I left him.

@Suetully the words you have used in your posts are really showing you to be quite unpleasant really.

Are you sure? Because this is the sort of thing anyone involved in should be feeling the kind of shame that makes them never ever want to admit it.

of course, many of these confessions aren't pleasant but because I am a male and telling stories of revenge that involved girls when I was a boy I must be hung for it. The WOMEN who did similar to men in acts of revenge in these threads can't be blamed.

They are pretty tame compared to the rest of the stories on this.

@CatJumperTwat

IT would never ask for a password hmm

Of course they would. It's a workplace, not a bank.

They definitely wouldn't or shouldnt not in any job I've had. In fact we have training that says IT will never ask for a password.

I've got a poo related one.
One night, as teenagers, me and my friends were drinking on the beach.. We eventually ended up at my friend's house, where we drank some more. And then passed out. When I woke up in the morning there was an awful smell.. I had no idea what it was, until I went to the bathroom, and realised I had pooed myself, badly!! What is worse, is that I had borrowed my friends boxers to sleep in, as I didn't have any sleeping stuff with me.
I took the boxers off, wrapped them in loo roll, then stashed them under my top. All the time agreeing with everyone, that someone must have stood in dog shit the night before. And that's what the awful smell was...
First chance I got I deposited them. This just happened to be the sannitary towel bin in macdonalds.
I know this is wrong.. I feel guilt about it now.. But at 16 I just had to get rid of the evidence.
I've never shat myself before or since.
But I did puke up all over his mums bed the next time I stayed at that same friend's house. He definitley brought out up the worst in me!!
