Childish things you've done

I have one! I had just entered 7th grade, and the way the school system is set up is that 7th graders are mixed in with every grade leading up to 12. This isn’t particularly important but it’s good to emphasize how used and gross my school constantly was because of the large capacity of kids. My best friend at the time and I would coordinate sitting out from gym class so we could have a ‘free period’ to talk. We sat at the very top of the bleachers and my friend looked into the gutter - you know that place where all the dirt collects from shoes, lost pencils, and just general grime? Usually it’s too disgusting for anyone to wanna touch, but she found a starburst. This thing was disgusting, I mean literally rancid. This thing looked as if it had been here for years and it was probably expired, on top of being absolutely filthy. For one, it had a footprint on it and secondly, there was an intense layer of grime that she had to scrape off. I look at this starburst after she “cleaned” it and I had the brilliant idea to give it to somebody we didn’t like in our class. Who do I choose? One of the mean girls that bullied everyone for no reason.I walked over to her and offered the starburst, I don’t know how she didn’t see how disgusting this thing was but she accepted it and ate it right in front of us. My friend and I busted out laughing and she looked at us like “???” as we just walked away, feeling proud of ourselves.

In hindsight, it was a really crappy and disgusting thing to do. We definitely shouldn’t have done that because she could have gotten super sick, but thankfully she didn’t & we had our sick laugh.
