I recently washed my hair in a public bathroom with nothing but the sink, some hand soap, and lots of paper towels.
A couple days ago, I had slept really poorly for the third night in a row (my own fault). I woke up so late that, if I wanted to get to work on time, I would have to skip my shower. So... I did. I still shaved, brushed my teeth, applied deoderant, and so forth, so I smelled fine 
However, there was still one problem. I'm a habitual hair-washer, so by not doing so that morning, I was constantly aware of how filthy my hair was.
The problem got worse at work. Our air conditioner doesn't work well and I was sweating like a pig, making my hair feel dirtier. After a few hours of this, I just couldn't stand it anymore. I concieved a bold plan, born from a marriage of desperation and mental exhaustion (did I mention I wasn't sleeping well?).
While I was on break, I snuck off to the restroom (which is largely unused since 80% of our staff and clientele are women), slicked up my hair, scrubbed a little hand soap in, then quickly rinsed it by simply wetting my hands and running them through my hair. I didn't really need to comb it since I'm wearing it so short these days, so after drying with some paper towels, I stepped out feeling so fresh and, dare I say, so clean.
I don't know how well it really worked, but if nothing else, the placebo effect was very soothing.
I was really rather proud of my daring plan at the time, but now that I'm well-rested and thinking clearly, I plan never to do it again.
Anyway, I shared first, so now it's your turn!
Should've said something, but I've said it enough
By the way my words were faded
Rather waste some time with you...

I bought a can of air, a container of coffee creamer, and a snickers bar at Wal-Mart near 3 am.
Hows that weird? Me and Mattimeo went to 7-11 at 3 AM, in the rain, for some Soda once, just cause he was out of Coke(But still had other sodas.)
Friends of mine and myself were hanging in a basement, and we discovered my friend's parents' stash of broken machinery. They had thia thing against throwing out anything that cost over 100$, thinking it HAD to be repairable, even when it was, like, cinders. So, we kept trying to fix stuff using stuff from other stuff. Somehow, we got a sewing machine working, upon which we became aware of just how much cloth was around. Shirts, couch cushions, nothing escaped the Sewing Machine of Doom.
Including my hand, apparently. I was trying to keep it away from my pants and got a few unforseen fuschia stitches run in the back of my hand. Ow X.x
When I was 15 or 16 I purposely branded my right breast with a celtic cross. You can barely see it now though.
And yeah, I was a stupid kid.

Dude have you seen some of the freaks at Wal-Mart at 3am?

It's freakily scary, but oddly comforting at the same time.

And they were waxing the floors.

The Wal-Marts around here aren't open that late unless its around a Holiday. Then they're open 24 hours.

What sucks even more is there's still plenty of people there, but they funnel you into a single register and close all the rest, so you've got this hugeass line and you're surrounded by freaks on either side of you the whole time.
I've eaten grass, got punched in the face twice, prayed to God to spare my life, puked, and dunked my head in a pool four times in the same night.

See, the dog wasn't eating them, so I decided to try them out and see what was wrong. Apparently the dog was just too picky. So I took what was left of the biscuit I had just sampled downstairs with me to the computer room.
As I was downloading music and talking to people and stuff, I ate the biscuit. And then I realized how hungry I was because I hadn't eaten all day. I went back up to the kitchen, and looked around for food. Didn't find anything except some ketchup and really old lunchmeat... I nearly despaired... but then I saw the dog treats.
And so, by the end of the night, I had downed a good quantity of those things. They actually weren't too bad. Didn't really taste like anything, though.
It was fun.

I had to walk to school for the rest of the year. [ 09-01-2003: Message edited by: Cool Hand Luke ]
I was playing Unreal Tournament over the 'net, CTF, Facing Worlds. Friendly fire was on, and one of my teammates was carrying the flag to our base. We were all using team voicechat, I can't recall how. I THINK it was GameVoice, but I could be wrong. Anywho, I was covering our flag carrier.
I have no clue what the hell I was thinking at the time, but instantly, I pulled out my rocket launcher, annihilated the flag carrier, and took the flag, shouting, "I am the great Cornholio! You must all bow down to my bunghole!"
I then proceeded to pace in front of the enemy base base singing about laying waste to people's bungholes until someone from my team sniped me. We still won the game, though.
