    Playing sick is easy. This 7 year-old got a little more creative :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: So what was your method?

    yeah, this video has most of his adventure. he was going up to 60mph, cutting thru a high school parking lot, and pretty much doing better than most teenagers.

    Like I said, most adults too :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Try driving in Queens all the time xD It's ridiculous. My first "accident" (and only one ever) was caused by some asshole making a u-turn in the middle of a big road you can't make a u-turn in obviously and he hit me right on the side, totally his fault, he "didn't see me". xD

    My brother and I would sleep in and go to "later church" (my parents went earlier). Later church was usually the mall.

    Once, my father asked "What did the priest talk about during the sermon?"
    I thought quickly and said, "Um...sin."
    "What about it?"
    "He was against it."

    ^ LOL.

    I still go to church, I like the rituals and community. Except it's a liberal christian church, not the LDS one (I'm not allowed to go to it anymore).

    Having athsma does have its perks :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I fake an athsma attack, then sit outside listening to my ipod :grin:

    i told my parents i was an atheist in middle school we had a big discussion about it and no church, we stopped going :grin: i really was having major doubts in faith as my parents where arguing a lot and a lot of family issues going on while they where together. BUT i did get to stop with the BS church :grin:

    Wow, CCD. That brings back memories. :slight_smile: I actually had some pretty good catechism teachers, actually, so I didn't suffer too bad.

    Haha. My mom was my CCD teacher. So it wasn't that bad. Funny thing is, she was never religious.

    Oh yeah, CCD. Almost forgot about that. Well, at least that was after school with friends. A lot better than having to get out of bed and/or stop watching cartoons on a Sunday morning.

    Well I'm pagan and my mother is perfectly comfortable with it so thankfully I was never made to go to church. Although I did have to go to a Mormon church once so I just wore jeans, trainers and a crap t-shirt. I didn't have to go back after that haha. They liked the well dressed people clearly.

    My family doesn't go to Church but at boarding school we have to go to services every bloody week. Once at my old school I decided I didn't want to go so I went to the music building and practiced (or rather played randomly) the piano for about an hour then went back to my boarding house.

    No one ever knew.

    I know it's dangerous and all, but that kid looks so cute running out of that car.

    Church and religious functions (at least the ones I've been to) are so boring. My parents knew better than to ask me to go.. my dad was kinda bored by them too, so it was easy.

    I went to church twice a week when I was in elementary school. There was a student body mass every friday morning at our school's church, in which students would do the readings and one priest would ask us questions during the homily and everyone would clap if someone answered correctly. Then my family would go on Sunday, like normal.

    During Lent (I think), rather than a student body mass in the morning, we would have the stations of the cross at the end of the school day, like at 2pm. However, classes would still have to go to a mass at some point during the week to receive the Eucharist.

    Once in seventh grade, my class went to a service on a Wednesday. I felt really hot like I was going to faint, and I threw up into my sweater. :eusa_sick I got out of that mass, I guess.

    Did I mention we had to wear ties?:eusa_pray
