what's the lamest thing you've ever been busted for?

[xfer]

stealing a 25 cent container of guacamole or whatever. nothing's too small.

me, i got busted with ephedrine pills and a bag of that fake weed they sell in high times that doesn't get you high (my roommate ordered it and had given me the bag in disgust the day before, and i hadn't even tried it yet). by my parents. it was really embarassing, like "umm, well, this is not only all legal, but totally lame shit. i really don't know why i have it." i was like 17.

 

[xfer]

i also almost got arrested and was taken down to the station house for SPECTATING at a LARP event. they were convinced it was some kind of gang war, but with swords and really fat gangstas.

age 18: graffiti

age 27: apartment raided by vandal squad. didn't find anything, but raids are embarrassing. (THANKS ROOMMATE)

UM.

you win.

 

[avi]

hahaha xfer totally wins for the LARP thing



I've been *almost* busted numerous times for stupid shit like drinking on the street, but luckily have never been arrested. I did however, get caught smoking weed in the bathroom at school in 8th grade. they made me cut my heavy metal hair.

graffiti is not nearly as lame as fake weed.

the "station house" was the Boston College Police Department on campus, so it's not like we were thrown in the downtown Boston brig with robbers and pedophile priests. still.

 

[minxnim]

fake weed is pretty bad. but the LARP thing... i had no idea you were into that alex.....

 

[minxnim]

it was actually a cop from boston that scared some jerkoff in boston into turning me in when i was 18. i've hated boston ever since

 

[xfer]

haha you got turned in

many years ago, when LARP was just starting, a couple of goth kids i knew got into it and were like "you need to try this shit out!" so i went along to a couple of events and eventually realised it was pretty lame. i would definitely encourage you to do the same if you had the chance to see what it's like.

 

[minxnim]

i have some social problems. and i think any LARP related thing might make my head explode.

also: the kid who turned me in was so stupid that he accidentally narced out his own brother at the same time. he also developed a severe limp and is still, to this day, perpetually shunned. it's been 10 years.

I mentioned that medieval LARPers practice down the street from me on the greenbelt every weekend, right?

 

[goatschool]

i'm just plain busted

 

[xfer]

whenever the guy at Eagle's Deli asks me what i ordered so he can ring me up, i always wanna say "a king kong" instead of "a king kong with bacon", but how embarassing would it be to be caught ripping them off for 75 cents?

 

[xfer]

haha "developed a limp"

 

[minxnim]

alex i sometimes think about doing that at the bagel place... no mentioning the peanut butter... it's like a 50 cent difference.

nix: NO U R NOT

 

[xfer]

secretly, i suspect they might technically charge for the grilled mushrooms i get on the burger, but if so, fuck that. they shouldn't and i don't mention it and they've never caught me out.

 

[minxnim]

it's funny too because i've never been caught stealing and i used to (unfortunately) do it all the time. but now that i do not steal i am always afraid of being falsely accused of it and embarrassed.

one time i was in a car late night in the middle of winter with a girl in a community college parking lot and got busted. the bright light shining in, total embarassment, whole thing. luckily they didn't do anything, just made us leave.

can't recall truly lame things like LARP, though. i did, however, as a kid often get busted for insignificant lame crap cuz that's all i did. i was golden in a geeky way.

lol when i was like 15 or 16 i was out with this girl after some high school chorus thing and we were in her car in a parking lot behind a 7-11 fooling around and this cop caught us. all he said was to go home since it was 4am and past the curfew for 16 year old drivers.
