Cheating cheaty cheatsI'm rubbish at cheating. I was asked to help run a stall at a local fair. We sold squares on a treasure map for 10p a go, with the one closest to the "hidden treasure" winning stuff.
I told my sister where it was. I'd not really thought through how obvious this would be. I've kind of avoided cheating since, what have you cheated at? Confess all, it'll make you feel better.

Stealing candy from babiesNot me this time, but my former boss used to be the head of his (much more sandstone than MY sandstone) university's German club. This had several benefits:
1) the constitution of the club specified that decisions must be made by the president and one other executive member. Not by "3/4 of the membership" or any other democratic quorum. Cue my boss appointing his girlfriend secretary and running the German club as their personal fiefdom.
2) The university granted money for the club's "educational" role. Me: "So what did the club do?" Him: "Drank beer and ate sausages." Cue sandstone university paying $1000 a term for the club to eat sausages and drink beer. Awesome. The "educational" grant was kept by the expedient of teaching one word of German per swill session. "The word for the week is... BOCK."
But that's not the best bit...
3) At orientation week (I don't know what you Brits or Seppo's call it, but here the first week of term is O-Week) vulnerable first years, bloated with excitement and free beer, sign up for every club and society in sight. Cue my boss and his girlfriend charging about 150 dumbass first years 15 Pacific Pesos to join their club, knowing damn well that only about 1/3 of them will actually turn up for the beer and sausages.
Chris, you fucking rule. Really.
