At least that fellow doesn’t have Thoreau’s regrets:
… if I repent of anything, it is very likely to be my good behavior. What demon possessed me that I behaved so well?
Have you ever had fun misbehaving?

Have I ever had? I not only had, but I continue to have fun misbehaving. How can anyone have fun behaving himself?
I had great faith that you would say this. Yay, Rummuser!
I don’t misbehave on purpose. Can’t see the point.
Which doesn’t mean that I don’t put a foot wrong in the eyes of others.

You’re still young. There is hope for you yet.
I definitely need to have more fun misbehaving than I do. I’m more of a “quiet satisfaction in getting things done” kind of person.
By the way, referring back to a recent post of yours on the relative benefits of promoting what you love versus bashing what you hate, I just read that Thurman and Salzberg have written a new book, Love Your Enemies: How to Break the Anger Habit & Be a Whole Lot Happier.
I hadn’t heard of the book, but it makes sense to me. I have read that anger can become a destructive habit. I also believe happiness can be a habit. That’s the one I aim for.
i will have to my stock word : it depends
on/of what the situation is
Agreed. I assume that means you sometimes have fun doing it?
I was always that very good kid and followed every rule.
Yep, they could always count on me to do the right thing.
I guess I was a late bloomer, because I kinda snapped at 23 and started misbehaving, majorly… for about 10 years.
I gotta say, I better much enjoyed most of it!
Lol!
Good for you!
