Good Clean Fun?
 

I had a conversation with a friend yesterday about the "good ole times" ... I'm not THAT old ;) but... I still remember as a child having some good clean fun.. meaning pranks, and jokes and just being mischievous. Nowadays, some of the things that we did then would be considered worthy of jail time, juvenile detention or worse.

My friend and I discussed that kids now mostly just get their entertainment through video games, and electronic gadgets... while as kids, we were outside playing with sticks, and boxes, and building forts and tree houses, and playing occasional pranks on the neighbors... which neighbors realized it was all in fun and didn't mind at all. Nowadays, some of those things we did would have landed us in jail, or worse.

Wondering if we could walk down memory lane and share some of our favorite good clean pranks and fun ...

I remember one time in particular, where we loaded up a box of laundry detergent, and headed over to a local water fountain in town.... it was good clean fun let me tell you... :happydance

You mean like shooting china berries at the police? Yeah, they loved that. :heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Filling a nice purse with cow manure and putting it besides the road... watching as someone stopped, grabbed it up and after a hundred yards braked and tossed it out!

My friends did this. Clean? no Good? no Fun? YES!

Oh man, I've played some nasty jokes on people in the past (and had it done to me). LOL

My wife was on a mission trip to South America as a teen for the AG and they pulled a good one on another kid who was in their group. They opened up some Oreo's and scrapped the white junk off of them and replaced with mint toothpaste. Of course he ate one, then another, and then another.

We toilet papered A LOT of yards... and had it done to us plenty times too...

Not long after we'd been married, some pranksters thought it would be fun to toilet paper and shaving cream our car. The only problem was.... when we got up the next day, the sun had already come out, and the shaving cream literally had peeled the paint off our car... we were NOT happy about that prank!!!!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

What a STINKER you were!!!! :heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

OUCH! that was really mean!! At least they could have told him the difference after the first oreo!!!! :happydance

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Maybe he later in life, helped invent the Mint Oreos! :heeheehee

One time a girlfriend and I, when we were in college, heard about some runaways. We were walking down the street when the cops stop us and asked for ID and told us about the runaways and said we looked like them. We decided after the cops left that maybe those runaways had a reason to run and we would help them out so we decided to look suspicious. We took off running as fast as we could go in sight of the cop. He chased us and we ran into a car lot. I opened a car door and jumped in and hid. The cop came up to the door and opened it and asked what we thought we were doing. I said I was looking for a car. LOL! He said that was the strangest way he ever saw anybody look for a car in his life. But, we weren't the runaways, and you can't arrest someone for running down the road and jumping into a car in a car lot! LOL!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

They sure would now. I am surprised I got by with as much as I did, before I finally got locked up. SMH

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

We did all kinds of stuff back then that they would lock you up for now. Sheesh. You can have any fun nowadays! LOL!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

We used to whip donies out on the frozen lake. Actually, my husband and I did that a couple of years ago for fun. LOL!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

In some states you can go to jail for that, or at least get a ticket. I saw that on TV, it was either in Maine or Alaska.

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

What are donies and why did you whip them? lol :heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Well, maybe we're criminals! LOL!:heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

:heeheehee

She probably meant donuts..........:toofunny

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

LOL! Donies are when you take a car and spin it around in circles. It's just called whipping donies. :heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

In the South it's called donuts. :highfive

We had a youth leader who was a wimp if ever a wimp walked this earth. The pastor's daughters and I were 3 peas in a pod. We did everything together. We did all kinds of rotten things to this poor guy. One day we took all of his brand new underwear (tightie whities, just so you know) and smeared a streak of mustard right down the center. Then we put them back in his dresser drawer. After a while, we decided we might end up in trouble for that one, so we better wash the mustard out before he saw them. When we tried to do that, all the mustard turned blood red and stained. Aacck!!

This same guy slept in a jock strap under his pajamas (don't ask how we knew that!). We took his jock strap and hung it in the tree out in front of the pastor's house for the whole town to see. He was so backwards that he was mortified by it!

Now here's the kicker...... Guess who this guy is married to now? Walt's sister Pam - which now makes him my brother-in-law!!! Good grief!!!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

but speaking of things that we did then that our kids would spend time in jail for ------- my brothers were always blowing things up with one sort of explosive or another. Just for kicks. They used every means or concoction ever known to man to do these things! And got in trouble with our parents - but never the law.

On the other hand, when Keith was 14 he and 2 friends decided to make a drano bomb one night. They blew up a 2 liter pop bottle. And Keith spent the rest of the weekend in juvenile jail for it!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

We got in trouble many times for doing donuts in the church parking lot after a good snowstorm. But it was the pastor we got in trouble with - not the law.

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

those same pastor's daughters from earlier spent the night at my house one summer night. At 2:00 in the morning we decided we should go get their bikes on the other side of town. But since we were sleeping outside in our camper and our clothes were inside, the only choice we had was to ride across town in our little shortie pajamas. Twice. The cops saw us several times on those two trips but didn't do anything. It was 2:00 in the morning and the streets were deserted, so I suppose we were just their entertainment for the night. I got grounded in the morning for it. But the girls got beat with a rubber hose until their legs were black and blue by their father, the pastor for it. I lost a whole lot of respect for him at that moment!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

LOL! Aren't paybacks tough?? LOL!!!!!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Yikes! The pastor would get thrown in jail for that now!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

I think that might have been my husband. :heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

I know someone who helped to blow up a porta_loo. Do you call them that in the states? The explosive went off too soon and the stench ended up all over the conspirators.

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

LOL!!! we call them porta-potties.

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Aaaaah... porta_ potties.... do you guys call the bathroom the pottie too, or is that something you say to the kids? We call it the toilet, the dunny, and some other less wholesome names here... lol

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

This thread has become about not so clean fun. :heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

LOL!

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

:heeheeheeTrue... I'm glad I wasn't' t there for the porta-loo incident.

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

This has become a rather stinky thread and Hoovie is to blame :lol

It feels great to lighten up a bit... and I've enjoyed everyone's stories, just don't have time to comment on each one, as we have company right now and I'm just checking in for a minute ;)

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

I remember building a tree house with my friends. It was great fun.

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Was that the house that you rented with Paul and preached the gospel from?:heeheehee

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

Re: Good Clean Fun?
 

:heeheeheeNice tree house... where's Paul?
