In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

I need to rack my brain a bit for a firsthand story... other than some dumb/thoughtless stuff I did as a young (under 15) kid, nothing comes immediately to mind.

Blew a lot of people off, and was an asshole to lots too. Other than that, I ruined a "Heroes Quest" boardgame that I loved by steppng on all the pieces with tissue box shoes; prick.
I saw some horrible things in my younger days when I was prone to substance abuse. The worst was small kids with junkie parents. I didn't cause those situations, but I implicitly condoned it by using with those people.
Worst thing I did was to pick up frogs that would wander into our back yard. I'd pick them up, hold them out at arm's length and spin and spin and spin until I almost fell over. Then I'd set the frogs down and poke them to make them hop, and they hopped in circles.
Also, (and this is terrible) when I was a little kid, I picked up a few frogs and tossed them in the air. They made this crunch noise when they hit the pavement, and then they couldn't move very well or at all - and for some reason I did this a few times (maybe a half-dozen or so) and was just fascinated by it.
And just so that everybody doesn't think I'm a crazy animal abuser, 1.) I was really yound, like 5 or 6 maybe? and 2.) I later had major guilt issues for these frogs. There was one night a little while after I got over the fascination where my parents were calling me in from the back yard and I *swore* that I'd stepped on a frog as I was running barefoot. I made my dad get a flashlight out and we looked in the grass for a long, long time, 5 or 10 minutes. Definitely some latent guilt. For what it's worth, I cherish animals and pets today.

One time I found a small garter snake in the garage. It looked like my cats had gotten to it and it appeared to be fatally injured... he was moving, but slowly, and was bleeding pretty bad.
I wanted to put him out of his misery so I took a medium sized rock and dropped it on his head He didn't die but his head was pretty smashed so I did everything I could to do some damage then ran away.
I still feel bad about that. Thinking about it makes me kinda sad.

I was evil. Had a grudge against a friend, over something I don't remember the specifics. But at any rate, I was upset with him.
Built a batch file, packaged up with ANSI graphics, and made it look like an installer for Castle Wolfenstein. Posted it on a BBS. Later, at my friend's house, we 'discovered' the copy of Wolfenstein, and downloaded it to his computer. We installed it.
My batch file did a 'format c: /u/q' while my fake animated ANSI menu showed an ID Software 'installation' progress bar, counting up to 100%. I copied their design nearly perfectly. I spent hours creating this... After finishing the 'install', I had made it display a message from a 'warez group', claiming to support ID Software. And basically, a 'we formatted your hard drive' message. This PC we were using was my friend's father's computer. He was a CPA, and ran his business from that computer. I completely destroyed everything they had. No backups to be had.
I felt terrible about that for years. I sat there the whole time and acted surprised about what had just happened. And I had done all of this out of malice since I was upset about something trivial, like I said, I don't even remember WHAT made me upset anymore. I had to talk to him about it a couple of years ago, it was bugging me so bad. I did this when we were 15 years old - we're now 32. Sorry, Todd. I was a tool of massive proportions. Talk about passive-aggressive...

Ouch... That one is pretty bad.
Did you know it was his dad's computer or comprehend what would happen? What did they do?

that reminds me of this poor poor cat
It was a dark and stormy night, anyways I was driving on this back road and all of a sudden I see this cat, body broken almost in half wiggling in the middle of the road. After giving a look at the cat up close, I decided it was best to help the poor kitty's suffering and end it's life. I went forward with my car once and then back over it. Well right when I had stopped I see this car come up, guy gets out the car picks the cat up puts it in a box, and says thanks for watching out for my cat, she is still moving so I am taking her to the emergency vet, and hurried off, damn I felt bad

his weed, damn man I was only in high school
believe it or not he was actually a pretty big drug dealer so don't go feeling to
sorry for him
Part of why I did it was because his dad was always complaining about us using his computer, and claimed that some day we would screw it up.
I knew his parents would be pissed. (They were.) I knew he would probably get grounded. (He was.) He was banned from using the computer. They bought him a new computer of his own, eventually.
I felt bad about what I had done, but was too afraid to speak up and claim responsibility. I was a bad friend.
If I had a nickle for every time a "friend" broke into my house to steal my weed, I'd have exactly one nickle....

Not the worst, but the worst I'm willing to post here.
When I was a kid, I was playing with my friends at the beach. I really had to take a dump but I didn't want to run all the way from the ocean to the bathroom on shore. So, I dropped my shorts underwater and laid a couple floaties in the ocean. My brother told my parents and got me grounded. I was mad, but I totally deserved that.
__________________________________________
When I was backpacking, I was out on the town with my girlfriend and a group of people. I got ridiculously hammered and started whooping and dancing around with some of the guys. When she told me to cool down, I yelled at her "Fuck off, I'm having fun!"
I continued to get way more drunk that night, and ended up passing out in the shower for 6 hours. I don't even remember downing tequila, but others insisted I did.
My g/f took care of me and helped me pack up the next morning. I felt so guilty the next morning because I had been such an asshole. I can't recall even yelling at her at any other time in our relationship - I'm really not an aggressive person.
As well, I got really scared because I had never been so drunk in my life. I had absolutely no idea how much I had and I thought I might have been close to killing myself. I wasn't a huge binger before, but I have since really toned down my drinking whenever I go out.

Since there are people in this forum who know my real name, rank and unit i really can't tell you.
But when i was 14 i shot a friend in the neck with a bow and a hunting arrow, he was paralysed from his neck down until he died. It was ruled an accident and yes, it was an accident but it's the worst thing i've done that i can talk about.
You could probably find the story if you know my real name.
