Deviant Acts
 

I'm in a sociology class right now. We have an assignment to commit a deviant act and then write about it. This includes things like staring at people in the elevator or sitting on the floor in class. Things that go against the norm. I want to be original/unique in this. Problem is, I am a goody two shoes and can't think of anything good. So, I am turning to you all.

Any suggestions?

PS: Can't break any laws, school rules, or ethical rules (mores).

I will be gone for the weekend but please keep posting ideas...thanks

Re: Deviant Acts
 

walk backwards down the cereal isle in a grocery store over and over again until people start staring.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Good one there Stu:p I'll think of something later

Re: Deviant Acts
 

buy a box of condoms and put it all over the teacher's desk before she/he arrives to class...:p


then you wont have to write about it :D:D:D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

You could only bark when people speak to you

Or lick their fingers when they say hello

Maybe walk around the whole day backwards

Walk with a sock on your hand, talking to it for answers

Give all your professors a pop quiz and see how they do

I don't know :(

Re: Deviant Acts
 

um. here is just a few things I thought of:

1. Talk in lyric. When someone ask you something, reply with lyrics from a song. If you cant think of any, just sing your answer.

2. Use internet lingo to talk. ex. When someone says something funny, say "lol"

3. walk around with your eyes closed.

4. Stalk someone. For like 2 hours. :D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Just go to class and trun your desk/chair around and sit backwards in it.

That or just where alot of ****ed up makeup and screw up your hair(try to make it stand on end or something) take the whole day go shopping and such.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

I like the Internet Lingo one. soo many possibilities with it.:D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Ehm, I already do that. :p I often say lol, sometimes rofl.


Pretend you don't remember ANYONE. When they talk to you, look as if they're moronic and slowly step backwards.

Start talking in another language. If you don't know what to say, make up your own language. Then laugh in their face as if you made fun of them.

:confused:


I gotta write a small essay about ethics. Cause there are different forms of them... like 'consequence-ethics', 'moral-ethics',....

When I ask someone to stop smoking when they're not allowed to, I 'break the rule' to leave someone alone, to mind your own business. But the consequence is that the dude will stop smoking so other people are happy. :)

Makes me think of another one for ya:
Ask people to stop smoking when they're not. :D Shout 'somebody make this man stop smoking' occasionly.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Color your body so it looks like you're wearing clothes but you're really not.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Yeah I like that one. Be sure to make and post pics. :)
GM, that's called bodypaint. ;)

Re: Deviant Acts
 

If you eat lunch with people, eat COMPLETELY different from them. Eat cow eyes, put pepper on things if you don't. You know.

And yeah, the walking backwards one is good.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

I walked backwords for a few hours with my friends through the town one day and people in cars usually turned their heads......meh...wasnt that fun:p

Ummm,

1.dress as the opposite sex

2.walk on your hands if you can

3.whisper and then say every other word really loud when your talking to someone

4.dance in the public bathroom........with glow sticks

5.chew with your mouth reeeeaaaallly open, chunks of food flying off everywhere.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

That was going to be my suggestion :unsure:

i guess great minds think alike :D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Everytime you walk by an asian try speaking random gibberish that sounds like chinese.

Thats what I do everytime I walk by the (Chinese) Internet Cafe.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

I actually can say 'how are you' in Chinese. :D Sounds like 'nee hou'. :)

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Hey, thanks for all the suggestions... some are good, some not so good... I still haven't decided what to do though (this is sooo hard )

Re: Deviant Acts
 

1. Anytime you eat in a public place, chew your food, spit it back out, and THEN eat it.

2. Walk around campus with a cup. Leave your mouth open like a retard so that you start drooling. Anytime it starts coming out, catch it with the cup, drink it and say, "I've got to stay hydrated!!!"

3. Introduce yourself to a bunch of strangers. Whenever you meet one, lick your whole left hand and stretch out your right (dry) one, as if you want to shake theirs. That will get people looking at you very quickly.

Interesting assignment. So many possibilities. :sneaky:

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Err, talk to someone you respect on the phone (parents maybe) and use foul language, and act like it's normal... then write about it, then call back and say that it was for a class assingment. Unless you live with them, then I dunno.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

I tried the walking backwards thing a little bit in school today. Hilarious. I knocked some poor kid right on his ass :lol:

*thinks about designing a hat with connected rear-view mirrors*

Re: Deviant Acts
 

:rofl: Hilarious!!!

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Another thing that you could do and that won't take much time, is every time that someone talks, answer back in rhyme.
It maybe hard to think of one, reciting on the spot, but once you get the hang of it, just act like you totally forgot.
Like you don't know that your doing it, or that you just don't care, some may find it funny, others might just stare.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

You could also NOT make the report. Than that would be the act. :sneaky:
*wonders if they'll appreciate that*

Re: Deviant Acts
 

When you eat at lunch.. don't use utensils OR your hands... eat like a dog would... and then walk around with the food on your face.

YUCK!

good idea though :)

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Haha. Breaking folkways, how fun.

In my sociology class we had to break them too.

I hid in between clothes racks at Target, jumped out, and scared people. This lasted about 15 minutes before I was banned from the premises....

My friend's, though... His was awesome. He went to a public restroom, stood at a urinal, pulled his pants down to his ankles and just stood there for an hour. Every time the place would empty out he'd whip out a small note pad and jot down peoples reactions. :D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

:rofl:

LOL OMG how funny is that?

Re: Deviant Acts
 

oh, too bad i'm not a guy... the bathroom one is great...

i still haven't done mine, i'm a wimp... i think i'm going to go to fast food restaurants and order unordinary things

what do you think?

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Yeah, or go to a gas station and get like 1 cent of gas. :D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Youre good at this. :)




...A little too good.... :p

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Do a twist on the bathroom one. Might not be too good, because the cleanliness of toilets can be quite different. But how about sitting on a toilet seat and talking on a cell phone or having a conversation with yourself and letting anyone who enters the bathroom have a clear view?

Re: Deviant Acts
 

lol, yeah that would work... but I also have this thing about public toilets (i don't really like them very much...too dirty)

actually, store toilets and certain gas stations tend to be clean but I hated going to the bathroom in highschool

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Agreed

my highschool had all kinds of smokers and i didnt have the feeling of taking a **** there either.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Eh... There was a group of guys at my school that would kick in the door to the stall if it was closed.

I stopped it from happening to somebody else twice. But it happened all the time. So I never went in school...

Re: Deviant Acts
 

They put cameras in our toilets. :unsure:
Oh wait, this isn't the "I have it worse" thread. :D

Re: Deviant Acts
 

At school, there are auto-flush toilets, and I sometimes wonder how it knows when to flush at the right time, and sometimes it doesn't...........

Re: Deviant Acts
 

Maybe you should use the mens urinal at different stores (obviously pretend to pee)

Re: Deviant Acts
 

go to a pron shop and buy a fake penis. put it in your purse go to a store and when they have you pay start shuffling thru your purse pull out the penis put it on the counter then pay for the stuff and start walking out with out your penis. and have someone else watch and record the guys reaction.

Re: Deviant Acts
 

haha, that's awesome... i might have to do that just for fun

bye the way, i'm done with the project... didn't do anything fun, just stared at people in wal-mart like i was high

Re: Deviant Acts
 

the only problem with that is, most folks are probably use to it.

Heck, I know I wouldn't be bothered with it.
