It could have been years ago when you were young or even yesterday afternoon.
I think most everyone has gone out with the intention of getting into mischief at one time.
It could be from the simple act or an involved plan, but you do it on purpose.
I used to move for sale and political signage to different houses.
I used to throw tomatoes, eggs and apples at moving cars.
I pranked a co-worker by adding fuel to his tank for a week then removing it a little at a time. It was hard not to laugh as he bragged about what great mileage he was getting. Even harder when he began to complain when his mileage per gallon dropped lol.
I once filled balloons with paint and threw them at a guy's car that stole pot from me.
I was with a group of friends and we had a box of garage remotes and wandered until we found garages on the same frequency. We'd open the door. The guy would come out and look, scratch his head, close the door and just as he was about to go inside, we'd hit that remote and open the door. Our laughing usually gave us away but we were never caught.
I would put a rubber band on the kitchen sprayer here but the kids started doing it too so once their mom got it, we had to quit that game.
There were many other things but I want to weigh my mischief against yours. If you were guilty of purposeful mischief, please share some of your pranks.
Ready, go.

I've always been sweet and innocent.

The first time I got involved in a political movement I must have been 7. There was this older girl in the classroom who said that I was supposed to go with a piece of chalk she provided and write a big V with a 4 inside (the name of the candidate)in all the walls from the school to my house. I wrote walls all the way and was very proud until my mother learned about it. She was the rational kind of mom so she first asked me what did the V and the 4 stand for. I had no idea. So she filled a big pan with lukewarm water and soap and we went all the way erasing them. She was mean. She even made me erase the signs I had not writen.
I did worse things but donĀ“t know the words in English to explain it.

Hahah
I used chalk one time at school on the playground. There was an asphalt walkway and kids were allowed to draw on it at recess.
I drew a picture of my teacher that was unflattering to say the least.
Of course, kids squealed on me and I was called to the office.
They called my mom and said I had to stay after school to wash a sidewalk.
When my mom found out what I drew, she said I had to clean ALL the sidewalks. It took me a week working every day after school.
Your mom and my mom were cut from the same cloth.
You know what got her so upset?
When she asked why I did it, I said I don't know.

When I worked at a print shop, my boss was a big time prankster . . . I learned he ways of print shop press room pranks from him. I didn't run any machines, but he showed me how to mess with the presses to make the pressmen jump - daily . Little did I know those pranks would come in handy one day.
I worked for another print shop, and initially it was a bit difficult fitting in with the pressmen. I broke the ice by walking by the presses and pulling out the pranks . . . for a while they had no idea it was me .

I did nothing so bad, of course I played pranks when I was younger, but nothing that could hurt people or damage properties. I remember, when I went to school, that during the morning break, we liked to pour water on those who passed in the streets under our windows. We got caught by the nuns and it was not funny.
