double dawg dare

I was 9 years old when I took my first dare. My cousin dared me to show my naughty bits to his neighbor. I lifted my shirt. Funny how my 'naughty bits' looked just like his chest. Sorry dude, the boobies were not fully formed.

I was always a bit of a risk taker--there were never too many dares that I wouldn't take. In high school, a friend of mine and I were dared to sneak over to the boys' gym and peek into the locker room while they were getting dressed after football. We did and then the kids who dared us, pushed us inside.

We ran laps for a week as punishment.

Totally worth it though.

What's the craziest dare you've ever taken or have you always been a little too afraid to act on a dare?

  1. Um. I can't really talk about that in public.

  2. Either I have buried transgressions deep into my subconscious or I have never done anything crazy on a dare.

    I'll come back and post if I remember something.

  3. I wouldn't say I was "too afraid" to act on a dare...but perhaps too sensible. (I never saw the logic -- why would it prove my bravery if I did something stupid? And why should I have to prove my bravery? And why wasn't the guy who made up the dare doing it?)

    I guess while other kids did dares, my friends and I were rereading the Oz books... :-)

  4. I was and still am, a chickenshit. I can't come up with one good story.

  5. Probably something involving skinny dipping, or running around naked or sneaking into Susie B's brother's room and peeking at his porn.
    You didn't have to dare me to do something nutty.
    Now I'm a little smarter, and only take my bloomers off for one fella.

    I honestly don't remember anything crazy, although I have never stepped down from a dare. But I can't think of anything specific right now, off the top of my head.

  7. Usually my brothers started off daring me but somehow found I turned it back on them.

    Honestly the dare thing never worked on me. I've done a lot of stupid showing off, but it was usually my own idea.

    Now I can't decide whether that makes me dumber or smarter. LOL

  8. I'm sure I've done some stupid stuff, but nothing insane or over-the-top. Probably prank calling was about the worst of it...
