    Years ago when WWF: Smackdown and Resident Evil 2 were just out for the Playstation, my uncle brought me home the games from America. However, as the Playstation games in the US and Europe are different, they wouldn't play on my Playstation. So I had this brainwave - went into Xtravision, rented the games out and swapped them out for my US region games. Poor sods who rented them out next.

    That is genius.

    I do that when I accidently hit my Xbox and it eats the disc up something awful.

    Years back when I was with my first ever girlfriend I had three other girls on the go at the same time. Felt like an absolute boss at the time. When found out I only ever admitted to the one she found out about. Kept going with the other two.

    God that was nasty nasty **** to do.

    I don't like chocolate desserts,she does. So when in M&S I sneak a toffee one into the packet and put the other chocolate one in a different pack, she gets her chocolate one and I get a toffee one.

    The next person buying them will be left with the same combo.

    That's kind of a nice sneaky thing though! Your deed means that the next loving couple can have a choice of desserts!

    (Or a fight over who gets what ... one or the other ...!)

    Feel bad about this now, genuinely, but..

    One night, when I was 16, myself and my mates popped the bonnet on my Dad's car and disconnected the distributor cap so that when he got up for work the next morning, the car wouldn't start. Four or five of us went on the bounce that following day and waited down the end of the road until we seen him now being able to start the car and then ten minutes later someone who was on the same shift as him pulled up and gave him a lift to work.

    Then we reconnected the distributor cap and headed off on a road from North Dublin to the Dublin mountains and Tallaght to see The Square which had just been built. Was an insane day and we nearly got killed a few times as I could only just about drive and at least three Guards in different squad cars gave us funny looks. Just about made it back in time before my Dad came back.

    Somehow I always got the feeling he knew I did it but he never said anything about it. Sorry Dad.

    When I was a teenager my mom had bought a carton of buttermilk and put it into the fridge and she was planning to have some the next day.

    Now in our house, buttermilk was a very rare commodity that was bought only when the moon was full on an Indian Summer night in the midst of October after it had rained for 3 full days and 3 full nights. Buttermilk was a magical elixer of life and I loved it. I lusted after it like a teenage boy lusted after his Farrah Fawcett poster in the 70s.

    Well there it sat in the refrigerator overnight and it haunted my dreams.

    After a restless sleep and a hearty breakfast the next morning, I suddenly found myself alone in the kitchen before heading to school. Now was my chance!!

    I downed that container of buttermilk, rinsed the carton out with water, filled it with more water and sat it in the fridge just as if it had never been touched or opened. Then I took off out the door to school. :)

    Let's just say mom wasn't too happy with me when I got home from school and it still makes me laugh to this very day thinking about it. :D

    When younger put about 40 penny sweets in brown bag.
    Tell person at till you have 30 in bag.
    Save 10p.

    The guilt made them taste better

    A used to set my own alarm to go off really early in the morning and I'd sneak into the hall, switch off the house alarm, and then hit the trip switch on the ELCB board, thus resetting my Mothers digital alarm clock.
    More often than not this would earn me and my brother a day off school.

    Also, I used to carefully open all the Christmas crackers and steal the toys and trinkets from them.

    That's all I'm willing to admit to at this stage. I'm saving the rest for my death bed.

    One year I went on sabotage at Easter.

    Ate half of alllllll the eggs, kept the uneaten half wrapped in foil at the 'window' of the box so you couldnt tell.


    The chocolate coma combined with the confused faces of my brothers and sister on Easter Sunday was completely worth it!

    Such a **** thing to do and then pass off as "sneaky" when you are too cheap to actually buy the products you want!

    My current sneaky thing is to take pictures of crosswords in some newsrags, then print them off in work to do during my lunch. :)

    That's probably the scummiest thing I've read on this thread. Even worse than dress-pebbledashed-with-vomit girl.

    Titfecked a mates bird. He was an eejit though, and treated her badly

    My brother is severely allergic to certain fruits and as a result of almost suffocating on a banana as a toddler, is deathly afraid of them. If he annoyed me as a child I used to stuff bananas into his pillow, line them up in his bed so he'd pill back his covers and hey-presto, he'd wee himself a little. I also stuffed them into his toybox, his schoolbag, into his sock drawer or basically anywhere he'd put his hand without looking. Sometimes even in his shoes.


    He got me back when he realised how afraid of bees I was :p

    Justifies nothing.

    Ya he wouldn't even "titfeck" her


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,144 ✭✭✭DVDM93

    He wasn't your mate so, or shouldn't be, for a few reasons.

    If you disagree then that's a real scummy thing to do, hardly sneaky.

    "Titfeck"? Christ.
