If it was me you were smiling and nodding to, you'd get a hard strike across the face back :)

One of the interesting features of IoP for me is that it seems free of concern about consequences that will follow. ?It's the urge that counts at the time and that urge is ardent.

I once ran for a bus and reached the stop just after the doors were closed. I pressed the emergency open door button and entered the bus. Needless to say I was thrown out.

I smashed all the windows of my Grandpa's greenhouse - then blamed my cousin who was visiting us from Australia cos "he made me do it"

[Alan Medic]

Why did you do it?

What is it about the words "imp of the perverse" that you don't understand?

I was carrying my mate's son around the walls of St. Malo and had an overwhelming urge to hurl him down into the street. I kept the secret for years but told the father recently and he didn't bat an eyelid.

The boy is a strapping eighteen year-old now. I haven't told him yet

Once during a heated game of Trivial Pursuit (clearly a long time ago) I acted on a passing impulse to kick my then BF for being a rubbish player.

Wish I'd kicked him more often, really.

Throughout the 90s in those sorts of bars I regularly pissed on the top of the bogs in the gents knowing that a bunch of twats would be snorting my urine up their noses...actually that's reasonable

[Robert Poste's Child]

Actually that's not.

Dear God, I hope not. Any other crimes of hygiene to declare?

Years ago when I worked in IT for a large London solicitors I used to work night shifts. One night I wandered the large multifloored building locking shut any filing cabinets that had keys in them, removing the keys and swapping them for keys from other filing cabinets on other floors.
