And for those of you who are still children... tough luck ;) But post anyways.

Anyways, to start off, one thing I *LOVED* doing was sticking my tongue to a 9 volt battery. I'd never be without one for this distinct purpose :E

And I dont just mean a passive interest, one or two times. Obsessed with it! I could swear it used to help me turn traffic lights from red to green, right as I wanted to. It helped that by stroke of luck, it happened more often than not. But all cooincidence :)
 
i would always stack all of my stuffed animals on top of me when my dad left for work, it was kind of like a mountain of animals with a little peep hole so that i could watch TV
 
I would wrap myself in a blanket and pretend to be in a cloak. Alot.

Also, I would find interest in some trivial thing for a day, then leave it in my bed and sleep with it, or bathe with it :|

Thank god my childhood is over.
 
I used to get BB M16s and other assault rifles and shoot them at passing cars. :|
 
I used to chew Barbies feet. I hated Barbie with a vengeance, I used to think it could feel pain. I was such a sadistic little child.

And we used to shoot them at each other, which resulted in pain and having good firing skills. :E

No, we decided beating up poor defensless police officers was worse than beating up evil protesters that inhibit the continued prosperity of the fatherland.
 
i was in love with a scrub brush....brought it everywhere with me
 
Did you rub it against your face causing cute permanent scarring?
 
I don't remember any silly/odd things I used to do as a child, but I do recall an interesting thing about my brother.

When he was about 3 years old he used to take his socks off in the kitchen and put them in the dishwasher.

.... I did that too :D. Except I also remember crawling around carrying every single stuffed animal I had with me. I think once I brought one out, I felt bad for all the rest and couldn't leave them behind. I also used to rearrange the sofa cushions around myself to make a fortress. A soft, squishy fortress.

Whenever my mom mopped the floor she would move the chairs over and line them up. My sister and I used to pretend it was a train and put all our stuffed animals on it.

We also played with laundry hampers. There was this round green one, and we'd turn it on it's side and try to get in and roll around. That was the most awesome thing ever......
 
eh im am so ****ing tired, nothing makes sense to me at the moment...
 
Imitating video games.

I apparently also used to love sticking metal objects into electric sockets, according to my parents. I'm guessing that all changed when I finally got the shit shocked out of me at about six.
 
My cousins lean and bounce around when they play video games, as if that helps them avoid enemy fire or turn a corner tighter. LOL

I do that too. I mean, did that... I also started talking to my video games when I was in maybe 3rd or 4th grade. I think it started out as insulting the monsters and stuff. Now it's developed into screaming "Run Gordon, run!!!" :eek:. I think maybe I'm just insane.
 
In games like Super Mario and so forth, I always left a few enemies alive because I didn't want to be responsible for the total extinction of goombahs and koopas.

I do that all the time! Its so much fun........my mother thinks I should see a councillor
 
I used to buildg spaceships, forts and inexplicably shrinking machines out of sofas, stereos and other assorted objects including multicoloured slinkies. Talking of slinkies, I once lacerated my hands with a metal slinky. I think some of you might remember it. D:
 
I took a shit in someone else's garden.

Feel free to sig.
 
When I would get angry or pissed or whatever, I would go outside, and bank my head on the cement as HARD AS I COULD.

That is one reason that leads me to believe I have some downs in me.

*EDIT* just remembered I would play a power rangers like game that inspired me to create a nice little short story! It was like a cyborg...that was fighting an EVIL cyborg..thing...yeah. Anyways, one of the bad guys names was CyberTrap. I drew it, it was a giant..mouse trap...

Dea God, I WAS a downs kid!
 
I used to pretend to be a cat :| I think because I really liked them (still do).

We have a huge house with like 6 bedrooms and we have a big living room, so I would build an actual fortress (spanning through the entire living room). My mum always got so angry :p
 
I loved building dens in the woods. They were always gone whenever i went back though :( so i rebuilt them :D

Used to love playing shooting games out in the street too... noisy buggers we were :p
 
I used to eat bowls of brown sugar with a spoon. I used to cut my pizza with a fork and knife and dip each piece in creamy italian salad dressing. I'm 29 and I STILL put ketchup on my steak, chicken, beef, etc.
 
I used to have this little blanket, I would always pick at the little threadings and ball them up... sometimes I put them in my mouth and made little spitballs of thread.
 
Climb things, or try to explore places that probably didn't exist, such as climbing on top of a wardrobe or trying to find a secret cave/bunker under my house.

Also sneaking around, I was convinced I was a ninja, so I used to sneak into the church across the street and climb about in the rafters etc.

One other thing I remember, I made a pirate ship out of: a Table with benches on it, 5 doors, lots of timber, a climbing frame, some random car parts and some utter shite I found in a scrapyard near me, I love that scrapyard, every time I look at it, I think about making the car from HL2 or a gravity gun.
 
i was a fort making champ. the best forts always involved the use of every sofa cushion in the house. i also used to run around pretending to be a ninja everywhere i went.
 
Hmmm lets see what i loved as a child.

I used to love making "bases" either from furniture inside the house, which pissed off my parents or i'd go and build them in local forests or garden.
Gokarts were another thing i liked to build, i'll never forget the incident with a gokart down a nearby hill, lets just say i avoided riding them for a year after that.

My parents were quite poor but we had loads of land and old cars/bits and bobs so i was forever building stuff.

Also i painted myself black (completely all over, yes including you know where) when i was about 6 because i wanted to see what it was like to be black for the day..........
 
You remember that speak and spell thing? I used to play with that for hours...maybe that's why I can spell good.
 
I was a pyromaniac. BIG TIME. got major 3rd degree burns on my feet and toes. I used to burn every ****ing thing in sight and eat cat food. specifically dry cat food "Meow Mix"

I also used to catch snakes, lizards and various creatures I was an expert like that crazy guy australian guy who always says"ooo look at the colors! just beatiful, gorgeous! shes getting mad now" -- even caught a copperhead (its poisonous).. but left that water-moccasin alone when i saw it and never caught snakes again
