26 Rules People Are Proud to Be Responsible For

pioneer’s spirit, however, sometimes you can find a way to do something that’s definitely not a good idea, but isn’t yet actually forbidden.

The honor for achieving this feat of originality isn’t a plaque or a jersey in the rafters like warning sign at the pool that’s clearly newer than the others? They know that’s someone’s trophy. 

Below, Redditors who were able to rewrite the rulebooks through their own ill-advised hijinks share their stories.

Fuck_you_Reddit_Nazi . 3y ago Edited Зу ago My older brother got a curfew enforced at Boy Scout camp when one of the leaders noticed him walking around the area in the daytime with his eyes closed, counting steps. Не may have just been practicing being blind, but the adults assumed he was figuring out how to get around at night without lights so he could get into some kind of mischief. Which, knowing my brother, was also possible.
foursheetstothewind Зу ago Minor one, but when | was in elementary school we had one of those bridge-building challenges using toothpicks and hot glue. My partner and I realized if we just coated the entire thing with a thick ass layer of hot glue it would make our bridge strong as hell. So we used like a full pack of hot glue sticks, like 20 of them, it was more glue than toothpicks. So after that they limited the number of glue sticks you could use.
MoreMegadeth . 3y ago In history class in high school, there was about 10 of us really close friends. We would take every opportunity to make your mom jokes. A couple months into class the teacher made us sign a treaty promising to stop making fun of each other's moms. We signed it, and started making fun of each other's dads.
TheThrowawayMoth 3y ago My mom got a library card at a new place many months before I did. When she got hers, she was welcome to check out however many books she wanted at a time, so she left with her shiny new card and 30 books for a project. When I got mine, those boots had still not been returned, and new card holders could only take out like five? books at a time. She still has those books, so like I definitely don't blame the library.
SpartanDawg_15 . 3y ago Back when Taco Bell had the spinny game where you could win food with a nickel, dime, or quarter. I could feed my whole friend group with $3s because | could win that thing at a 90% clip by jiggling the spinner. Taco Bell then posted a piece of paper stating that individuals could only win once and that no jiggling was allowed.
Pollowollo Зу ago I got our HR box taken away at work because the HR lady threatened not to pay us if we missed a clock in or clock out (in our defense the phones didn't always work and the clock in system was really unreliable) and I printed out the law stating that was illegal, highlighted it, and put it in her box when no one was around. She threw an unholy fit and tried to figure out who put it in her box, and from them on everything had to be handed in personally lol.
Orbitalconfusion e 3y ago In middle school i would use sharpies to tattoo myself, other kids thought it was cool so i started charging $1 per drawing wherever they wanted. Principal found out and after i wouldn't stop, she put a ban on sharpies for the entire school. even the teachers couldn't bring them in. i'm a tattoo artist now.
sprittytinkles69 . 3y ago Edited 3y ago Male students are not allowed to wear hair accessories. We had the rule about hair not touching collars, couldn't be past eyebrows, or over the ears. I grew my hair out and just put it up in head bands. After receiving multiple detentions and fighting them and winning, the next year, they made the rule
FartAttack911 . 3y ago My junior high made a rule against yo-yos in class after I tried to do a trick and my yo-yo flew across the room and broke a glass beaker set. I'm sorry, guys.
thatbitchlol a 3y ago I put a croissant in one of those hotel toasters. It soon became engulfed in flames and needed extinguishing. Next day at breakfast they made a sign that said if you'd like your croissant toasted, please ask a member of staff
YT4000 . 3y ago My elementary school was located in the center of the neighborhood, and my 5th grade class was the first to get outdoor trailers for classrooms. We'd ask for bathroom es and then walk home. Next year they built a fence around the school
idontcare4205 Зу ago Local amusement park added a no blindfolds on rollercoasters rule because of me. When I was in middle school, my friend and I thought it would enhance the overall experience if we blindfolded ourselves on the biggest roller coaster at a local amusement park. We got one of those pictures they take on the ride and there we are, blindfolded in the middle of a tunnel, having the time of our lives. Looking back, we easily could have strangled ourselves or worse because we literally just used scarves tied around our heads. Next year we went back
cwesttheperson 3y ago My younger brother was always late to school (small school) and was tardy. Не figured out if he just skipped first period and went to second he was counted as being on school and no late penalty because he was at 2nd period on time. They changed this the following year.
ForeverKeet Зу ago I used to ride on the bottom area of the shopping carts at our nearest grocery store. I thought it was fun to put my hands on the front of it, sliding them along the ground while the cart was moving (yes, I was gross). One sticky spot on the ground later and my hand was pulled back and thumb went right under the wheel. Crunched my little thumbnail and my mom had to remove it. Anyway, the store put up signs after that saying it's against the rules for kids to ride in the bottom of
Poonjangles ® 3y ago No more than 4 margaritas per person on dollar margarita (& beer) night.....In college, some friends and I used to go to a mexican restaurant every Thursday (?) and often on Saturdays for $1 margaritas. As a group, we would go through A LOT....then they put the rule in....then they changed it to $2 margaritas (& $1 draft beers)
HelpfulCherry 3y ago No typewriters in class. I was kind of a shit kid and while my school allowed us to use laptops, I would play videogames. Primarily Warcraft 3. In class. No sound or anything so I wasn't being a complete nuisance, but I wasn't doing my work. A teacher told me I couldn't use my laptop.
Зу ago Uber expense with drinks for clients at my work. Years ago we took a bunch of clients out and everyone had way to much to drink so I ordered everyone ubers home. Turned in the expense report to our manager (just under 400 bucks in ubers) and she had no clue what an uber was. I explained to my bosses that we expense drinks for clients why not expense ubers. Now if we pay for drinks for clients we also pay for ubers.
RosieQParker . 3y ago The dual major on my degree is no longer offered after I proved it would have been logistically impossible to graduate with it without my specific transfer credits.
nadirbahama Зу ago freshman year of high school, I had to give an oral presentation on a random Greek god. this was at a Christian school, for context. I got Dionysus, so naturally I spent many hours researching on YouTube how to act drunk (wasn't much of a partier, so I didn't know) and pretended to be absolutely wasted for my presentation. it was a great success but my teacher unsurprisingly banned Dionysus for the following years. it didn't help that Dionysus was basically the god of orgies and bestiality too, if | correctly
BelthazorDK . 3y ago Local jobcenter no longer has working usb ports on public PC's because I found private files on multiple PC's with far too much private information about strangers.
RjBass3 . 3y ago Military school I went to. After me, an adult is required to check the parade cannon to ensure it is clear, and closely monitor the students as they load it. There is to never be another flaming rubber chicken flying over the parade grounds ever again. Circa 1989.
Applesintheorchard . Зу ago Don't trick your siblings or friends into eating soap. I would cut bars of dove soap into pieces, wrap them in old candy wrappers, and pretend like they were mints. I was 8 or 9.
AlisonChained . 3y ago No citing the Geneva Conventions or accusing management of war crimes.
o1eaceae . 3y ago not me but a coworker- the whole company now requires that if you have a lanyard for your name tag it must break away on the back because she got it caught on a top shelf and it choked her
Cueball-2329 . Зу ago Edited Зу ago A friend of mine in a military school found out the regs never stated what color the bed sheets for a bed made for inspection had to be in. So this mad man went and bought power ranger sheets and made the perfect regulation bed. I have never seen so many Sgts lose their shit but be unable to do anything since the regs were perfectly followed. Needless to say the next year they were updated to state sheets must be plain white.
pikkdogs 3y ago As a kindergartner I once fell asleep in the bus. When I woke up the bus was in the garage and I had to yell to get someone to get me out. So to this day every bus driver in my school district needs to walk to the back of the bus and check every seat before they park the bus. Seems like a good rule to have.
