little acts of anarchy

[sunflower68]

Does anyone else  like to keep away the mundanities of life with a little anarchy? I enjoy paying for 3 or 4 GROCERY items at the cigarette counter of Sainsbury's (woah - I don't even smoke).  I sometimes put an old parking ticket slip upside down in the car if I'm only going to be a few minutes...dunno how this will help tho.  I have been known to place my groceries WITHOUT THE BARRIER THINGY on the conveyorbelt. Why do people in front have a half-hearted belief that without the barrier thingy they will be forced to pay for my goods. Welcome to the sad little world of me.

Beeping at ppl you don't know is great (luckystrike!) ....but it's even better when your the passenger, and you ask your mate who's driving, "Do you know him/her?"  They will ALWAYS slow down, have a look at the unsuspecting pedestrian, and that's when you bip their horn for them!!  I have had HOURS of fun on this one - especially as the lights change to red!!

Another good one was when I was in Tesco with my neighbour's bloke - he said he was off to beat me to the bargain section (I am quicker than a granny on speed when it comes to bargains!!)...well, I was wearing flip-flops (NO good for running!), so in a very loud voice, I said, "Excuse me sir, security, can you stop please?"  I thought he was going to die!!  Was VERY funny tho!

As for looking suspicious in shops, I seem to have a high-electrical charge (don't even ask!), and I can set off the buzzer things on the way INTO a shop!!  Got stopped by a security guard the other day about this and he was trying to explain it all to me (blah blah), and I just said, "Are you going to frisk me, or what?"  He declined and then I waited until another bloke was walking out, and ran thru the doors at the same time, set the alarm off (as I knew I would do!!) and shouted, "It's him, stop thief!!"

Yes, I am a complete child but I just love mischief!!!

Another good one for girlies is to go into a kind of expensive make up shop - you know, Debenhams etc and the two of you make each other up, but no nice colours you understand - as gross as possible!!  My friend left myself and my other friend, as she thought we would get thrown out - and the girls behind the counter were "tut tutting" but hey, we had a laugh...until we had to walk thru the centre of Birmingham with BRIGHT PINK lippy on, RED cheeks, and some god awful shade of blue on our eyes!!

Happy shopping y'all!!

Bondgirl that is fantastic, i worked for a very short while helping out in a department store, if you get the chance have a go with make up and stab the eyeshadow testers etc haha its well annoying for them, i like to make people get things out of akward boxes to have a look at the itme sinside if they are not already out on display and then decline to buy it. I have been known to chnage peoples mouse buttons over to left handed if there right and vice versa that is pretty funny!

When I worked as a Secretary (within a group of three secretaries) I had one boss who always seemed to treat me as the "tea lady" because I was the youngest. All of the bosses we worked for made their own tea except him.

He came up one day and said 'Are you not making me a cup of tea today then?" - I was getting pretty annoyed with him by this time so I made him a cuppa and spat in it. Then took great pleasure in watching him drink it.........

I do the same things really (although not really the cig counter one, unless the other queues are busy).

I think as long as you are not putting anyone else out, what's the problem?

I kind of get amused at "THE BARRIER THINGY" etiquette - the way people look at you if you don't put it behind your stuff, and if you don't reel over in gratitude if they do. 

I call it harmless little personal entertainment.

actually i don't spit/urinate in people's food and all that kind of disgusting thing.  i do a lot of the other things listed here, but i figure, if it's okay for me to do it to other people, then it i can't complain either.  there are a few things here i will be trying though!

actually it pees me off when people arrogantly park in the pickup thing in a car park.  if i'm waiting for someone i deliberately block them in until i'm ready to go (which happens rarely as i don't tend to stick around).

great tip about the parent/child one - i know that tesco's are going to start clamping down on that now.  so they should.

also disabled bays when people havent got a disabled sticker.  they should clamp down on this more.  i saw someone do this once and a couple of minutes after a one-legged man got out of a car (don't ask me how he drove it!) and had to walk further because of them.  Good on him though - he parked right behind the other car so that they couldn't get out!

Yo - the disability bay is for people with disabled bodies not disabled brains!

One more thing - I don't tend to play pranks on people but I couldnt resist this one.  A friend had some workmen at her house and one brought in a couple of boiled eggs and a couple of slices of bread for lunch.  He left them on the kitchen table and went to the loo and I quickly swapped one of the eggs for a fresh one - LOL - I didn't see him try and eat it though, sadly!

Driving in through Out gates and out through In gates - guilty! Also grabbing parking space at supermarkets when I see someone competing for it.

Don''t usually go over the limit at express counters at supermarkets.

And Natalie_1982's story about the father in law got my memory jogging. I threw away some manky looking lemons from my fridge, only to see my FIL who was visiting) search high and low for  them that evening. Instead of admitting that I threw them away, I pretended to be surprised!!!

Taking photos at a Brussels Art Gallery, when this is banned.

Not sticking to dress code at work at couple of temping jobs in Catering. I'd make excuses that my shirts needed washing and wear my comfy tee-shirts instead (hey, the weather was hot!!)

I work in an off licence and when me and my boss get bored we break all of the chocolate in the their packets, then snigger when people come buy them. Hee hee heeeeeee!

Forgot to say this (its not mine, but a good one) Someone said that she was once caught heavy rain, minus her umbrella, while out about town. She went into the local M&S and told the Lost and Found Counter that she'd been shopping there a few days ago and inadvertently left her umbrella behind. Whereupon she was taken into a room where there were loads of lost and found stuff, where she'd promptly identified her non-existent umbrella, and trotted off with it!!
