Oh, one time I facepainted my face to match the tribal tattoos that my Dragon Age character had.
Do your Mummy and Daddy know you are talking to Grown-ups on here?
I killed my parents.

With sadness?
With hammers.
M.C. or House of?
There's a small new stretch of road near me, that I'm tempted to drive down, just to try it out. Is that sad, or is it sad that I've never driven along it (despite wanting to) because I think it would be sad to go there for no reason?
A few years ago I was well known to my immediate area as someone who didn't want to work for a living. The next logical step is of course to post leaflets advertising a grass cutting service, to which I had a reply. She wanted all the extras done (I split the job down to it's components to make more money).
We agreed that I'd go to her house the next morning and start work. I had carried all the heavy equipment to her house and no one answered the door. I gave it about 15 minutes then left.
In the afternoon that day, the same woman walked past my sister's house while I was mowing her lawn, and she gave me a grin. Clearly she had set me up, to waste my time because it's hypocritical me not wanting to work for a living and then working for a living.
I started welling up at the injustice of this. I had been got at, and there was nothing I could do... except call 999. I asked to be transferred to the Police, and told them what happened. I was told that what the woman had done was not a crime. My blubbering response was "...but...but... I'm don't know what I'm gonna do" then hung up.
The extra-sad thing about this is that I was 18 at the time.
The saddest thing I have recorded was the horse racing to watch that night and I hadn't even had a bet.
But the saddest thing I have done in the true sense was last Christmas when I was a pall bearer for my fathers coffin at his funeral.
I was very sad but also very proud to be looking after him on his final journey.

Come to think of it, that's more tragic than sad.
Did you tut at the plebs choices of entertainment?
And make laconic remarks about Tarrantino films to the other staff?

with disapointment?
BOOYAH!
Sad things Sootyj has done?
Hmm
Gone to Gencon 3 years in a row
Been called smug by a man who sings James Bond songs
Cried when watching Beaches
Thought he was concealing his drunkeness at a party, till he realised he'd put his trousers on back to front in the toilet.
Been menaced by Elim Pentecostalists for mocking their faith
Been abandoned pissed when working on Kibbutz 10 kilometers from home
There's more I think.

Thats not sad. It's tragic you've not driven on that new road!
I once ordered a little flashing Tardis thingy you can attach to your phone. When it came to the order page you could add a gift card to your purchase at no extra cost. So I filled it in to say 'From The Doctor'.
I WIN.
