1. Back in HS, one of our teachers made the local paper for lewd acts with a student. I scanned the article, threw together a simple webpage mocking him and set it as the homepage on every computer in the library. At the time it seemed like fair retribution, but within a couple days I regretted getting caught up in the moment. I never found out the truth behind the situation, but I know I didn't have all the facts and was in no position to do what I did. What effect that had in the long run, I'm not sure, but he wasn't seen after that.
2. A few years back, some kid pissed me off on a forum, don't even remember why. I was mentally fragile at the time for other reasons and couldn't wait to get back at him. I picked up on tidbits of information he provided over the next week, found out his home address and mailed his very religious parents evidence that he didn't believe in God. I didn't immediately regret it and tried to justify it by saying they now know the truth......but now I'd give almost anything to take it back.
3. When I was 9 or 10 years old I was at my grandfathers house, watching a movie. I found a jar with change in it, mostly quarters. I put several of them in my socks and got away with it. I realize this isn't a huge deal, but we had a very good relationship and he recently passed away, with me having never confessed the truth.
4. I cheated on my SAT's, scoring over 1500. Granted, this didn't directly harm anyone, but by taking advantage of the system, I took advantage of the participants. The thing is, I never even planned to take them until I found a way to do it, nor have I used that score to further myself since then. Nevertheless, I still feel bad about it and wish I could erase the whole ordeal.
That's all for now, I'm sure I'll remember more low moments later.
