30 People Who Messed Around And Found Out

Some things can be learned without having to go through a traumatic experience; after all, common sense can go a long way. But there are certain life lessons that we can only understand if we go through them ourselves.

People in this popular Reddit thread realized this by accident. Their unfortunate “messed around and found out” stories range from learning that ducks can bite to discovering that poison ivy is actually poisonous. If you’re curious to know more about how this went down, scroll down below.

We also reached out to AyrionUpaka, who started this discussion in the first place.

You can find our interview with them below!

When i was a kid I was short and fat and I got picked on mercilessly. Then one summer I went and worked in the Alaska Bush and grew to 6'3" and got pretty ripped. I also got taught some very basic moves from some of the surveyors I was working with. Came back to high school and got into it with every person who bullied me. I won and learned all the wrong lessons.

New kid started at my school and I was the a*****e this time. He was always polite, walked away, and generally asked me to stop but I didn't. Finally he told me that he'd meet me on a Saturday and we could have it out. We showed up, he asked one more time for me to just stop. That's the point that I should have realized I'd done f****d up.

I went after him and he took me apart. It was the proverbial "He hit me with so many rights I was desperate for a left." But when he had me down he stopped, helped me sit up, and then sat down to talk to me. He gave me advice on how I was acting, how i was just doing the same thing that had been done to me, and that I'd never be happy if I went down that path. Then he helped me clean up and sent me home.

That conversation made such an impact on me it 100% changed me overnight and I owe it to him. I absolutely f****d around and found out, but in the best way possible.

The same thing happened to me. I got ripped over the summer in middle school, and my attitude was basically the same after I got over the shell shock of instant popularity. Luckily you learned the lesson early. I was in my 30s before I realized what I was doing and began to take corrective action.

I've always told my kids not to start s**t, but don't take s**t either. Don't let someone bully you, but until someone throws a punch, you don't either. And violence should always, ALWAYS be the last option for a "solution" because violence usually isn't the answer. However, this person is a prime example that some kids just won't stop until you stand up to them. My kid won't be punished for that.

I was a teenager working retail with a guy named Stephen and I always just called him Steve. He pulled me aside one day and asked me politely if I could call him Stephen since he preferred that. My smart a*s replied “Well I want to be called Gladiator but you don’t see me complaining.” He just said “deal” and walked away.

For the next two years he only referred to me as Gladiator. Need help finding something? Gladiator here would be happy to help you. He would get on the intercom and be like “Gladiator to the front desk…Gladiator, front desk.”

Learned not to be a smart a*s and never called him Steve again.

I was late for work and starving. The chicken I pulled from the fridge for a quick dinner smelled a little weird. But it was organic and I had roasted it myself, so it must be fine.

So very f*****g wrong. 18 hours of pure hell. I would have gone to the hospital but I literally couldn’t get off my bathroom floor. Fainted twice and ended up with a black eye from hitting my head on the toilet.

If they were to answer this question themselves, they would go back in time to when they were just six years old.

"The playground teachers always warned us not to venture behind the outbuilding towards the back of the playground since it was dangerous back there.

One day, I heard a bunch of kids playing behind the building, and curiosity got the better of me, so I went to join them. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking and found the "danger" when I accidentally stepped on a board with an upturned, rusty nail in it. The nail slid straight into my heel.

Almost immediately after, a teacher found us all, scolded us, and told us to come out. Another unfortunate part of the story is that they wrongly believed I was crying because I'd been caught breaking the rules, so they didn't think to ask me if anything else was wrong. As a 6-year-old, I was shy and not very articulate, so it took them a fair while to figure out that I was actually injured. My mom was called, and I got to take the rest of the day off school, so it's not an entirely unhappy ending."

I tried to break up a dog fight. Was holding my dog, on leash, when an unleashed dog ran in and began attacking him.

I went for the dog's scruff to try to pin him to the ground (while also trying to hold my dog back with the other hand). The attacking dog bit my hand three times quickly, the third time he punctured my thumb bones and got a real good grip. Proceeded to try to rip my thumb off. All I remember thinking is, "That's my primary hand, even if I let go of Fitzy (my dog) with the other hand, you are NOT going to be able to pry this thing's mouth open."

This was all of course happening in the span of 5-10 seconds. Out of nowhere my then girlfriend swooped in like f*****g Batman from behind the dog, sunk her fingers into its' scruff, and her knee into the back of its' neck, ripping it off me. Anyway I ended up proposing to her after that and the settlement paid for a big chunk of our wedding. In retrospect I'm damn glad this thing went after me, it was a 4th of July party and there were little kids everywhere.

What makes me angriest about this whole thing is the way it impacted my dog. He was very social and friendly with other animals before this, but it has been ten years and he won't give any other pup a chance now. He has lived a life lacking what he deserves due to those poor dog owners.

Jesus Christ. This story sent shivers down my spine. See this is the reason I don't have pets. I love cats, I love dogs even more. But you're responsible for your animal, you have to feed them, bring them to the vet, train them clean up after them, provide a safe home with enough enrichment, if you travel you have to make arrangements, it all sounds like a lot of work. It's all the owner's reslonsibility and some people just shouldn't have pets because they aren't responsible enough.

For them, life lessons learned the hard way seem to stay in memory longer. "I always believe positive reinforcement is the way to go when teaching lessons, but lessons learned the hard way do tend to stick out for me personally. I'm 34 now and remember being 6 years old behind that school building like it was yesterday, but I'd find it more difficult to conjure on the fly a memory of a lesson learned via positive enforcement."

For my 40th birthday a friend of mine, who is about ten years older than me got me a really nice 12 year old scotch.

Up to that point I had never tried any type of whiskey, or bourbon. Only was drinking vodka, gin, margarita's, and rum. Would only drink one or two saturday's a month, it was no big deal.

I fell in LOVE with the taste, the look and feel of having a glass of scotch or bourbon every night, like the classy dudes in those old movies I grew up watching, so much so, that I ended up drinking some everyday and developed a drinking problem.

I Have spent the last two working hard on getting completely off alcohol.

I can now say, as I approach my 50th birthday, I am off alcohol all together.

It was a hot sweltering day and I wanted to get my bike fixed. Played outside all day as kids do and didn't hydrate enough. Walked to the bike shop in the late afternoon, got my bike fixed and felt faint walking back but thought I'd be okay after drinking water.

Came home, drank some milk then some water. Immediately puked everything and then some more. Everything I'd eaten since the morning(not much) was in the commode. Stomach hurt and my face went pale. Went and lay down, puked in a few minutes again but only bile came out. Puked bile every few minute for the next hour until my father came home and saw me weak and pale. Went to the doctor and he said I'd been severely dehydrated barely away from hospitalization. Put me fluids for some time. If my dad hadn't come home when he did I don't know what would have happened.

Drink water folks.

Decided at the tender age of 8 or 9 that I was immune to poison ivy, since I spent quite large amounts of time outside and had never once gotten a rash from it.

I was admitted, then had emergency surgery to have a chest tube put in. Spent 8 days in the hospital with 4 days in the ICU. Remember much of those days.

Cheating on a partner is scummy and I was raised to be better than that.

EDIT : I was 19 at the time. Not married, no kids. I still should have been better, but no lives were ruined.

A fascinating thing about our species is that we don’t always seek out the best, healthiest, logical, most appropriate forms of validation. Especially when we’re younger.

2013, then 94 year old william webster started rceiveng phone calls from a man with a jamaican accent saying that he had won a lottery of $100,000 and a range rover s.u.v. he just needed to give a $10,000 deposit to claim it. even though old, mr. websyet still had ALL his wits and knew this was a scam and ignored the calls. the scammer continued, hoping to wear down the old man. the scammer also knew that mr. webster had been a naval officer, a lawyer and a judge. mr. webster did not budge. the calls then became threatening. big mistake! the scammer missed two VERY big things in mr. webster's bio. hi was the ONLY person in united states history to have been in charge of the f.b.i, 1978-1987 and head of the c.i.a., 1987-1991. the scammer served 10 years in federal prison after being extradited from jamaica. mr webster will be 100 this year.

I decided it wasn't that slippery outside and to not use my spiked shoes. Well I slipped and fell and broke both bones in my lower leg. In the end I had to have surgery, nine screws and a plate to correct it. Still recovering so no idea how well things will turn out in the end. But thank god health care is cheap in my country.

With all the dog fights on this thread I feel like I should mention what happened when my own dog f****d around and found out. I was like, 13 at the time and was on a walk with my sister and our elderly mini poodle. We got to the end of the street and this little (unleashed) white rat dog ran out and started barking at ours. So our dog barked back. Oh boy bad idea bc the little devil thing started to bite her face. Our pup wasn't hurt, just suprised and we had to kick the thing before it tried again. That's not even the first time that dog had bitten someone. The owners would just let it out in our neighborhood to wander around. Last I heard though it got hit by a car, and all I can say is that nobody was sad about it.

I'm not sure I'll ever understand how BP maintains such a kid gloves atmosphere of nonjudgmental supportive affirmations. Do trolls just find this place boring? It's completely antithetical to nearly every comment section on the internet and gives a strong impression of a support group. Photos and comics are used as ink blots and everyone is encouraged to share their thoughts and feelings. It's honestly kind of peculiar, like life thriving in inhospitable environments. These aren't pandas -- these are extremophiles!

Well, well, well, then we are extremophile pandas if you like. But we like it here. It's a kind and happy place to most of us
