Topic: Have you ever rebelled? If you have, how did you do it?

You know standard teenage ...stuff.

Things like taking my dad's car out when I was underage, drinking beer when I shouldn't and proclaiming how misunderstood I was and how no one gave a shit about me. Yeah, not my best couple of years but I was young so what else did you expect?

Rebellion's fun whilst it lasts and before you realise just how stupid and dumb you're being, that usually hits you the morning after and you're stuck in some random jail cell with a guard called Burley.

Guard called Burley gives you one phone call and instead of calling your father like any sensible teenager would you decide to call your friend DK who instead of coming to bail you out ends up passing out on his couch because he drank too much the night before and you're stuck there for two days until your father gets the truth out of aforementioned friend.

Dad rocks up, does not look happy but bails you out anyways only to tell you later how exactly you're going to pay it back. Turns out instead of spending your summer in some faraway exotic place you're getting a summer job in some backwater haven't seen the light of day supermarket where you will be stocking shelves and working long hours for penance.

You think it's hell on earth and you spend a lot of your shift time cursing your father but at the end of the day you pay back the bail money and you learn a valuable lesson.

If you plan on getting so drunk that you streak down a road naked and get arrested for indecent exposure, be sure that you have a friend waiting on it with bail money so your father never needs to know. Preferably a friend that can hold his liquor.

What? You expected something else?
