Besides "J" turns, burn outs, brake torques, and neutral drops; what wacky crap do you still do?

At the age of 51 I took the "20 Stamp" label and mailed my son a letter to college in Michigan. He got it so I sent him one to California - success. So I mailed my niece a letter to the Western Chicago 'burbs - great.

Ride shopping carts in the parking lot. I turn 38 tomorrow. I will never stop. Never.

That's not wacky, that's brilliant! I'm still in school so I feel like i don't have to refute the "i'm too old to do 'x' stupid thing" argument.

As a favour to a customer of ours, we were fixing up a pair of those cheap, chinese off-road go-kart, almost-a-utv things for him.

What was the first thing we did when they were running?

Hooliganism in the hayfield behind the shop. Donuts, drifts, races, everything but play bumper cars.

I'm 35, the boss is 36, our apprentice is 19.

Guys never get past the age of 17 do we?

I blow all my weekends under a crappy old car, spending money and time not on my wife just to spend three days in Florida with a bunch of other mentally challenged weirdos.

Oh and I am 50.

I'm 34 as a preface. I still push all the buttons in the toy aisle. I played the meow mix song on a meowing piano at target, and took video.

I wound up all the hand-held back vibrators at Costco and let them go all over the floor. Almost got kicked out of a store in Niagara Falls for totally losing my E36 M3 over a large rubber finger, that when you pulled the end, it let one rip.

I'm 50

I am 26, and I make silly faces, dance around, and inject terrible singing about everyday observations into most conversations with my girlfriend.

In reply to Lesley:

I spent about five or ten minutes winding all the egg timers in the bin at Ikea while the wife was looking at something else.

She came over, looked at what I was doing and gave me hell.

I looked at her, smiled and said "we have three minutes to get someplace safe!"

Sometimes at my parents house, when nobody is looking, I sit in my project and throw the unhooked shifter around making straight piped fiat SOHC noises.

I guess that's not too terrible at 21.

I make medieval figurines and trebuchet catapults from large bolts, nuts, all thread, and other random garage scrap. I have no idea why. I'm 30.

I'm 52 and I still get a kick out of embarrassing my kids by winding up all the wind-up toys in an entire aisle at the same time.

Actually, I get a kick out of embarrassing my kids in whatever way possible.

I also insert my dog's name into pop songs and sing them loudly at inappropriate times

I still listen To WESLEY WILLIS. One of the greatest musicians ever.. If you decide to search his music, keep in mind this.. None of his music is safe for work ever.....

Well to be honest he may have one or 2 "Commercial hits that are". But they suck compared to the rest of his work!!

Forgot to mention 38.

I'm 34. I still play with LEGO, Hotwheels, and Transformers. I still think farts are funny. I graffiti things at work with my magic marker: i.e. like removing the I N S from the "Otis Spunkmeyer Muffins: boxes or naming the meat cart REO Meatwagon.
