porn panic

"My boyfriend had been working so much that I decided to do something nice for him and clean his apartment. As I was doing his laundry, I found an erotic magazine at the bottom of his clothes hamper. So I took a break and started flipping though it. I must have dozed off on his sofa, because I woke up to the sound of keys in the front door. In walked my guy and his parents. I was still groggy from my nap, so I didn't have a chance to stash the mag, and now they think I'm a porn-loving girl."--Tammy, 21

dressed to spill

"When my boyfriend's company was having a black-tie party, I wanted to wear something special. There was this gorgeous strapless gown at the store where I worked that was perfect ... except it cost $2,000. So I decided to borrow it for the evening. I requested to work the shift just before the gala, as well as the next morning, so I could take the dress and replace it before anyone noticed, it looked great on me, except at the end of the party, this girl accidentally bumped into me, spilling her cranberry and vodka over the front of my dress. I freaked out! When I got home, I tried my best to clean the gown, but the stain wouldn't come out. I didn't have the money to replace it, so instead, I slyly slipped the dress back onto the rack at the end of my morning shift, and the girl who works after me got blamed!"--Leslie, 28

bumper car

"Right after high school graduation, my friend Meredith and I got into a huge fight and stopped speaking. We ended up going to the same college, which sucked, because whenever Meredith saw me, she'd whisper to her friends about me. When she got a new convertible, it was all I could do not to slash her tires. Then I got an idea. I went to a copy shop and had them make a bumper sticker, which I stuck to the back of her car. For weeks, people would lay on their horns whenever she cruised around campus. The Honk If You Want a Blow Job sticker had done the trick."--Annie, 27
