If we're keeping with the more lighthearted stuff, I think the dumbest thing I did in middle school was openly walking around $500

The friend (we'll call him Mike) wanted his Runescape account back that he gave to me. After playing on it for about a week, he told me he would give me any amount of one hundred bills for the account back (from his mother's "stash"). I was convinced he was joking, so I sarcastically told him $500. He laughed, and said he'd get it to me.

The next day, Mike walked by me in the hall, put the money in my hand, and went to his room. $500 in cash is a lot of money to a seventh grader, so I walked around feeling like I had committed robbery. I spent two class periods inspecting the bills (they were indeed real) before I handed it back to him at recess. I'm pretty sure at least three teachers saw me carrying it, before then.

Maybe I was overthinking, but I recall it stressing the hell out of me for several days.
