I would bury my action figures in my backyard and would say "I am digging graves!"

I would wrap them in a paper towel put them in a small cologne box, dig up some dirt and bury them and I would do so near this mini playground that was installed in my backyard.

There were swings a slide and some monkey bars and this fort thing.

After burying my action figures I would play on the swings.

I used wooden chips as "tombstones."

The empty cologne boxes were the "caskets."

I did that!

It was pouring it down with rain, so I buried a star wars action figure in the backyard using a wooden box as a coffin

I wanted to see if he would still be dry the next morning

He was wet!

That was far far from the most cringe thing I did

I do something similar even today.

I do a “durability test” on my old hardware tools and bury them in my backyard for a few weeks and see how it looks/works.

Lol! That is almost similar to me except I used toy soldiers and some other action figures that I don't remember what they were based off now because its been a long time.

What were some other cringe things you did?

I would obsess over a favorite WWE wrestler and that was seen as gay by my classmates, though I think it was perfect childhood behavior

I would love watching violent movies and overall loved violent media.

I would watch war movies involving foreign countries.

One time I told my classmates in the 6th grade in the boys locker room that when I was overseas for vacation in the 3rd grade I saw "kidnappers outside my grandmas house" based on what I was told from the adults in reference to the people loitering outside her house.

Looking back now I don't think they were kidnappers, they were probably just a group of friends hanging out or maybe some workers on a break. My grandma sometimes makes statements that are rather far fetched.

Looking back now it was a rather cringe thing to say.

I have little knowledge of how hardware tools work as I almost never use them but do the tests pay off?
