What is the most embarrassing thing you thought you did as a kid but it turned out to be cute in hindsight?

1 Answer

Answer :

I was about 7 or 8 at the time, and my neighborhood girl friend and myself (female) would “prank” call phone numbers without blocking it through a landline phone. We would ask the people in a modified voice acting like we were 4 years old, “Would you be my friend?” Than hang up the call shortly after. We thought we were so clever and hilarious, and we really thought we were messing with people. Than we kept getting calls back from the callers and they were all being so incredibly nice and saying, “Of course I’ll be your friend!” We we’re scared, embarrassed, giggling all at the same time. Now looking back I think how adorable that was, and how we probably made so many adults days. Can you imagine being at work and a little kid gets on the line and asks to be your friend? You would just forget you’re working  It always makes me smile reminiscing about it.
