  1. Hi, glad you figured it out!
    So for me, once when my brother was mowing the lawn and it was really HOT I "fixed" him a COLD glass of [already chewed] watermelon to "cool him off". He had been punking me the entire week of summer break - this was his pay-back! After he drank it I told him it wasn't a slushie,it was ABC watermelon; he nearly threw-up. I still smile about this story.

  2. Haha this is a good story Ms. Uptegraft! Well one way I like to be evil is definitely for vengance. My sister was teasing me when I was younger and there was some pay-back I had to give her. She went out somewhere after our little scuffle so that was the perfect time to seek revenge. So I took some of her make-up and dropped it in the toilet! The smile came upon my face when I was watching her apply those ill-willed cosmetics . She was completely oblivious to my satisfied expression. :]

  4. Hahah. Steph mine is like yours except worse! So one day my sister decided to wear my shirt to school with out telling me! This mad me so angry because whenever I do that to her she gets so mad. This is when i thought of my revenge! I decided to take all her eye shadows and drop them so they broke into tiny little pieces. When she got home and saw she was so furious! I eventually got caught but until this day, I laugh every time i think about it!

  5. Hahah Steph mine is like yours! So one day my sister wore my shirt to school without asking...I would've said yes if she asked to borrow it but of course she didn't. The thing that made me really angry was that when she got home, she spilled cranberry juice all over it. This is when i thought of my revenge! I decided to take all her eye shadows and break them! When she got home i told her it was an "accident" just like she said about my shirt. In the end she told my mom it was on purpose and so i got grounded. But everytime i think about the story it makes me laugh!

    one time me and my friend were bored so we went to house of humor. We bought this thing called a stink bomb. we thought it would be funny if we put it on his dad. a little later he woke up and got really mad. It was funny because it stunk up his room the rest of the day. The funny part about it was that we blamed it on his little brother and he got in trouble. [truly evil!]

  7. This is my answer for "What is something you wanted so bad you were willing to do harm to others if you didn't get it?"

    Since I am not a person who resortes first to violence this isn't a question that I can answer easily. However this happend to me a few time with my brother when it comes to video games. My brother hogs the game I want to play eventhough he has a lot of time on his hands, so I can get annoyed when refuses to share. In a few cases I do use excessive force to get him off. However the "excessive force" is often just moderatly pushing him off the chair in front of the computer.I guess it could be worse.
