A Twitter User Wanted To Know The Dumbest Thing We Did As Kids, and the Answers Are Unbelievable
...how are some of you people still alive?
Across multiple social media platforms, a trend has been emerging, and it's all about stupidity. A Reddit user turned to AskReddit for stories about parents realizing their kids were not the brightest crayons in the box; the answers were hilarious. Now, the concept has reached Twitter, but instead of asking users to shame someone else, Twitter user @MotherOfDoggons asked people to share some of the stupid things they did as kids.
Reading through the responses is pretty much guaranteed to invoke copious amounts of laughter, but we'd be lying if we didn't admit that many of these stories left us genuinely wondering how kids made it past their childhoods long enough to share their dumbest moments. Some of them are just that bad...
