I stole a piece of gum. I was 5 or 6 and there was a big wire bin full of gum in the store I was in with my parents. There were several pieces of chewed gum stuck to that wire bin and I was under the impression that people helped themselves to the gum and left it (disgustingly) stuck there. I would never have chewed it and stuck it on something, that would be gross and just wrong 😂.
Anyhow, I stole a piece of gum. I don't think I understood that I was stealing, but I was definitely being sneaky about it because I didn't want my parents to find out I had gum (it wasn't permitted).
After we got in the car, my oh-so-loving sister could smell the gum in my mouth and immediately informed my parents I was chewing gum. They demanded to know where I got it and I told them. They lost their minds.
I did not go to jail, but I was reminded that I was a delinquent for years to follow.

It's obviously not punishable but I've always heard the state I live in, anal and oral sex are technically still crimes that are on the books. So if this is the case and it was still punishable, I'd be locked up for multiple charges lol.
