Your first time ...

The first time I scripted anything, I was messing with one of Prexus' CMS's.  It had a horizontal command window at the top and the menus filled the whole screen when selected.  It had the map in the background.  Well, I decided that I didn't like the fact that there were four different gradients, one for each window (or however many of them there happened to be at the time).  I decided I wanted to create on big giant window that took up the whole screen, and remove the backs from the front windows so that there was only one large gradient.  I did not know what back_opacity was at the time, nor was the help file translated yet.

I created an entirely different Window_Base that used a specific window skin with the back image removed, and proceeded to change EVERY WINDOW SCRIPT to use that new class, to make it "easier" to call them.  So it worked.  I look back on this and think how stupid I must have been, when all I had to do was window.back_opacity = 0

Nerdy, aren't I?
 
I lost my virginity whilst on e, alcohol and weed and at Leeds Festival like four years ago.  I can't remember it.
I did at the second time like a year later but with a really weird looking lesbian friend.


God were they humiliating.
 
I toaly remember the first time I ever played a Street Fighter game.  It was at my cousin's house, he was a huge gaming freak.  We played against each other and he totally kicked my ass.  I couldn't believe it.  No matter what I did, I got thrashed.  I was a big jumper, I always jumped no matter what.  I still sorta do, but more so to evade instead of attack.  Yeah...  He still whoops me around in the game.  Oi.
 
I remember when I tried my first roller blading jump. I gained a lot of speed and when I lifted of the ramp and into the air, I landed on a stone probably the size off my fist and slid sideways and broke my right arm on a car  , I spun round trying to avoid landing on my right arm (yeah genius), but ended up dislocating my left shoulder on the railing next to the car (you know the railings with the poles in between), my left arm went through it leaving my shoulder to take the full impact and then I turned sideways (AMAZINGLY PAINFUL!!) and finally just fell backwards, to bad I was on the edge of the pavement....I ended up in hospital with a broken right arm, a dislocated left shoulder and major back pain for 3 weeks. It wasn't very nice, to make it worse it happened in first week of the summer holidays, 4 weeks later I was good as new with only 2 weeks to go till school :dead:

Never went roller blading again :down:

And most members here tease me about the time I........Nevermind >_>
 
Went to a mates place earlier this year, and since we're coming of that age, we decided to experiment with weed and, naturally, alcohol. We started off early, cracking a bottle of Coke and vodka at about four, and steadily got drunker whilst attempting to play Super Smash Brawl. We cracked the weed, had a stick each then soon after attempted to eat dinner with his mother. Time of my life.

I ended up missing the potatoes several times, spearing the tablecloth instead. Lets not mention the gravy jug.
 
I remember the first time I wore a skirt in public. It was a hot day, and I had just bought a new skirt at the dollar store, so I figured, "Why not?" and put it in my bag before I left for school. Bear in mind that, that semester, my first class that day started at 08:00; and My last class let out at 23:00. (I wasn't in class the whole time, I just had a couple large gaps between classes, too short to justify going home)
I put it on right before my first class, and from then until about 13:00 I had barely enough time to run back and forth across campus to get to my classes, so I was stuck with it that whole time, as I didn't have the three minutes it took to duck into a bathroom and change.

Well, this was only the third time I'd worn a skirt that long (it reached to just above my ankle), and I wasn't used to the limit it placed on my stride, even with slits in the side, up to the knee. So, for five hours, I'd keep forgetting, and try to take too long a step, and stumble. A guy in an ankle-length denim skirt draws quite a few looks anyway, and one who keeps stumbling draws even more. So I'm already self-concious, and every time I stumble, I see all kinds of people looking at me. Not to mention that I wasn't sure how to wash that fabric blend (it's a really stretchy denim-polyester), and I couldn't ask anyone, as nobody in my household knows about my preferred attire, so I'm constantly worrying about getting dirt, or ink, or coffee on it. (I'm extremely clumsy). I had to get used to the idea of keeping my wallet, keys, pencils, pendrive, and all the other micelleneous stuff normally in my pockets in my bag, as the pockets on this thing were ludicrously small. (Why girl's clothes have such small pockets, I'll never understand.)

All in all, it was a pretty good experience, as it helped me get over the embarrasment, as well as most of the terror of being caught. The amusing thing was the number of girls who gave me their phone number (sadly, I lost them all in my bag, damn pockets).

The funniest part of the day was when I did change at my first break, merely because of the mobility issue. A black girl I'd never met before cornered me as I came out of the bathroom. She was under the impression that I had changed because a few people were laughing at me, so she lectured me for ten minutes about how I shouldn't change myself to meet the standards of people I don't even know.
 
You go, skirtboy. And crazy black girl, she seems to have the right plan.

And moog, some people just like wearing skirts. They look cool.
Admittedly most of said people are girls, but whatever. I'm sure you've got your own odder habits.
 
Skirts have better circulation than pants, which reduces temperature, which reduced sweating, which reduces odor and itch, in a place where none of these things are wanted. The also are looser there, and thus put less pressure.

BTW, what did you thing my username meant?
 
To get off the topic of skirts...
I remember the first time I tried to use a stapler...I was pretty young, an young kids learn about stuff by touching it...hilarity ensued...
I was "smart" enough to only puncture the skin between my thumb and index finger...but it wasn't pleasant lol, getting it out again felt pretty funky too.
At least it didn't bleed all that much.

I also remember the first time I had a stomache flu-like illness...It came paired with terrible flatulance. Too bad for me, it wasn't just gas >_>
I farted again and *splash* something ran down my pants...good fun when you're in primary school, kids are fucking cruel
