Weird Things You Did When You Were Younger?

What are some weird things you did when you were younger? I personally used to store my art supplies in my hoodie sleeves and just randomly whip them out when I drew. I have no idea how it never fell out. XD My classmates would just look at me weird. When they needed a pencil, I'd pull it out of my sleeve as well. I was ten and under when I did that. Now, I just have supplies in my hoodie pockets.

 

When I was a baby...I ate crayons. I ate them because they tasted like different flavors. (THEY WEREN'T EVEN SCENTED.) No one knew, not even my mother until I told her. I never ate the paper, though.

 

So, what are some weird things you did when you were young? It could be anything!

Ahah! That's a nice story about hoodie sleeves, @Hippity Hoppity Sketch ^•^

Talking about me, I was drawing topographic maps of areas around my home with coloured pencils when I was a kid. It was giving me a such vibe of adventures.

Some of the games were a bit weird. I had a whole thing with the gulleys in the swimming pool, making waves go into them.

Nevermind the inflatables, or.. swimming, it was one of my favourite things to do in the pool  just splashing water into the gulleys. Fancy pools don't seem to have them, but the UK public swimming baths were full of them.

When I was 11 I was REALLY into Chucky as a character and I had this LPS that vaguely looked like him, it was one of those uggo "G3" LPS, the ones that were solid colors, so I pretended he was Chucky and I ran him around my room, smacking him into other pets as if he was beating them up

I was a weird kid

Oh man, where do I begin without saying too much?

Poplar trees would sprout up regularly on my grandma's property along the treeline growing up, and if left alone would gradually take over the yard. I thought it would be fun to climb up them, then swing back and forth till they snapped, and timber! Down I'd go, tree and all. My grandma liked that they were no longer taking over and started paying me to do it. 

One that I still do is on chicken nuggets from McDonald's, I eat the skin/breading first, and then the meat separately.

One thing immediately comes to mind. When I was a teenager, I rode my bike on dangerous stretches of road. What kind of roads? Major thoroughfares here, freeways there, and one time I almost made it to downtown Calgary (I lived there for sixteen years) before blowing the inside of the front tire. Okay, it's less me being weird than me being insane.

This isn’t exactly something out of the ordinary but it is weird when you put it into context. I never liked candy, even as a kid, and yet, I still went trick or treating with my sister. You’re probably wondering why I went trick or treating if I didn’t like candy. Well, I just liked wearing a costume, and any candy I got, I just gave it to my sister.
