What “rules” do you break?

I've never had one. I'm 48.

How is that possible? Do you have religious reasons or did/do you live where it's not common? Have you ever been harassed by a medical professional about it?
I am not judging, if anything I wish I could not have gone through that. I don't want the knowledge that some doctors really hurt me and say it's normal while some I cannot feel so I know the sadists are lying.

I've just ... never gone to a gynecologist. Once in my entire adult life a doctor asked about when my last one was and I had my period at the time so she said it could be done at another visit and never brought it up again.

Don't use it often, but it does come out at stadiums, concerts, amusements parks, etc.

It's amazing.

I don't feel TOO bad, bc those places usually have ample handicap parking and I've never seen it full (even when leaving a busy amusement park mid-day; still spots available).

But I know I'm rationalizing. It's wrong.

Thank you for this post because I didn’t realize I can get one for me when I drive my dad who doesn’t drive!
I mean maybe he won’t qualify for one but at least I know what to angle for

-Speeding. I exceed 100 mph at least once a week and normally drive in the 90s.
-I save old prescriptions, depending on the drug. I'll share with anyone who needs it.
-I use Psilcoybin mushrooms in micro doses. Not really breaking a rule as I buy them legally.
-I have outdoor cats
-I go off-roading and trespass on private property sometimes.
-I nearly always have a stash of fireworks. The good stuff. Very illegal stuff.
-I've been known to forge a document or two. Being a pro at Photoshop helps.
-I eat while grocery shopping. Don't always pay for what I ate.

The most audacity I displayed was when I walked out where I came in and not into another door (they had that signage due to Covid). It was just so stupid.

Otherwise it’s too many to list. If I think a rule is stupid and I can get away with breaking it - I break it.

At my request, my DH photoshopped a utility bill so I could get a library card in another state we visit often. What can I say, I walk on the wild side

My buy nothing group is a lot of leftover prescription drugs. Not painkillers though! (I do personally save leftover painkillers and anything else that might be useful)

And no, I don't also park in handicap, vet parking, or police only spaces.

If I forget to take my reusable back into the store and I use one of their bags, I never pay for it. I always hit 0 bags and move on with life.

I drive an SUV (gasoline powered) and I park the “green vehicle only”’space. To be fair though, my SUV is painted dark green.

This is my favorite.

My friend's dad is an accident reconstructionist, an engineer. When it's not clear how a car accident happened or who is at fault, he goes and evaluates and literally goes to the accident site and figures it out, then testifies. I was chatting with him once at a party, and asked what he's learned as a driver from doing this for so many years. He said "speed limits are there for a reason. Five miles over won't kill you, but ten will." I've adhered to that ever since.

Speed limits are designed for the least capable vehicles and drivers on the road.

No, they are designed for people like you who overestimate their abilities.

No, they were designed for average drivers at a time when cars were much less safe than they are today - no seatbelts, unibody construction, crumple zones, etc. Most (not all) speed limits are nonsensically low.

This is 100% true.

Speed limits, especially those on interstate highways, were set at the current speeds we have now 50 years years ago, when cars had drum brakes, leaf springs, bias ply tires and no power steering or power brakes.

A realistic speed limit for interstates now in modern vehicles would probably be about 100-110.

There are people still driving those types of cars. We can't change the speed limit because those people wouldn't understand that they can't safely drive at those speeds.

I never fold the clothes I put in my drawers. What's the point? I hang my work clothes and they're wrinkle free but who cares if I show up at the gym with a wrinkled cut off or shorts?

I buy sparklers in PA and use them in MoCo.

We did not keep track of how many hours my kids practiced driving. When we were confident in their skills, we made up the journal for the DMV. No idea if i was more or less than the required.

Oh and I once forged a drs signature on a camp form after they forgot to sign in one place.

Really, six months? I usually gift mine to my dates and boy friends, and a few unsuspecting men in bars, and weddings. My panties have a limited lifespan in my boudoir. Fresh panties are a godsend.

I don’t separate whites and colors when I do laundry. I don’t have red items that can run so it hasn’t been a problem.

100 mph?? OMG.

How does your car not just fly off the road at that speed?? Serious question.
