>Hi, Graeme, > >I'm going to assume that "getting in trouble" excludes >"not getting caught". Too bad because that then also >excludes several juicy tid-bits. Then there's the >problem with the definition of "getting in trouble". >A logical definition would be "doing something that >your parents thinks is so unacceptable that they spank >you for it", which sort of negates the very premise >of this thread. That leaves us with a wishy-washy >definition of "doing something that <i>somebody >else</i> thinks is deserving of a spanking but not the >person, like a parent, who would actually deliver the >punishment." Good lord, that includes way too much >for a forum post, even a Jerry-length one. What's >left is misbehavior so trivial that it only merits >getting crabbed at. Things like removing an olive pit >from your mouth at the dinner table using your >fingers. Did you know that etiquette demands that if >you have something in your mouth that you don't want >to swallow like an olive pit or a piece of bone you >are supposed to bring a spoon up to your mouth, use >your tongue and lips to push it onto the spoon, then >lower the spoon to your plate, or saucer if you have >one - not on the table! Besides me, how many of you >have actually done that and is that number >distinguishable from zero? That's what fingers were >designed for! When I use them I get told off - does >that count as "getting in trouble?" At least I don't >spit the pit out aiming for the trash can in the >kitchen. Maybe I should give that a try and see what >happens... Nah, I'm not that curious. Then what >happens if I up the ante and fart at the dinner table? > That brings forth a rebuke even from my dad but I >haven't been spanked for it...yet. Then there's >sneezing without putting your hand up. I do that >sometimes because a sneeze happens out of the blue >with no warning and no tine to cover up. Scolded but >not spanked. > >That leaves us with these: > >Once, when shopping for school clothes, an activity I >prefer to getting a spanking, but not by a whole >bunch, I got fed up with it and issued a disparaging >word - several of them actually - which my mom found >to be disrespectful. Fortunately for me my mom is not >one of those mothers who spank whenever and wherever >the misbehavior occurs. She didn't take into one of >the changing rooms and try on a new belt, but she did >tell me I was getting a spanking when we got home. >When we did get home we were so exhausted that she let >me off the hook and only reprimanded me. > >Then there was the time on a long car trip when my dad >got tired of me asking if we were there yet and told >me to zip it. I didn't and he said that that was >enough and I was getting a spanking when we finally >did arrive. That shut me up because suddenly I didn't >want to get there anymore. When we arrived he forgot >about it. If you want to bet that I reminded him, >don't bet anything substantial because you will lose >the bet! > >Oh, yeah, the time I chased a cat up a tree and then >couldn't get down. It's supposed to be the cat that >needs rescuing not the owner! Fortunately, my dad had >a ladder long enough so we didn't have to call the >fire department. The local news would have had a >field day with that one - I'd still be trying to live >it down! Almost didn't want to come down because I >was sure I was going to get spanked, but no, just a >talking to. > >Then there're the times I committed two felonies but >only got spanked for one. That means that I didn't >get spanked for a crime that I got in trouble for. >Like the time my buddy and I went hiking in the burned >out section of Los Angeles after the fires. We were >forbidden to go because it was too dangerous. We went >anyway, with me hiding in the trunk of the car out of >sight. I got spanked for hiking in the charcoal >forest but not for riding in the trunk of the car, an >activity that several adults here on the forum >declared was far more dangerous and said they would >have set a fire in my behind for that that was worse >than the forest fire! > >-Jerry
