No regrets like killing someone but there have been a few things I wish I hadn't done.
I sprayed a bunch of Round Up (systemic herbicide = it kills almost everything green) on a previous neighbors lawn. Did it by sticking the sprayer though a chain fence in the middle of the night. Took a few weeks but a big 12" circle of dead grass appeared. They deserved it IMO as they were a bunch of cunts who tormented my dog. I also sprayed one of their kids with a garden hose because he was trying to do the same to my dog. So no, I guess I don't really regret that.
A different neighbor I'd stand on my deck and pee into their yard. Kind of a dick thing to do. They had a big dog so I'd image it took the blame whenever they'd see yellow snow.
When I was in university it was the same time Dad was dying from liver cancer. I was quite angry at the time and broke things for no reason like elbowing thermostats in the classrooms. It served no purpose, probably cost a few thousand bucks to replace all the ones I broke.
And I did something very dumb that landed me with a criminal record. Not violent, literally a victimless crime with the only one being hurt was me. I fought it, first trial ended up with a conviction on one of the two charges. Appealed witch resulted in a conditional discharge (it meant 30 hours of community service and being an extra good boy for 2 years and then the charges were expunged from my record). This was around 25 years ago and if I committed the same crime today I'd likely have either not been charged at all or if I was been granted an absolute discharge (charges would be expunged immediately).
Aside from that it comes down to I wasn't a very decent person for much of my late 20's and early 30's. Not that you could point to a single thing, just a selfish asshole a lot of the time. I dealt with a lot of guilt because of that and beat myself up. Came to terms with that a few years ago and I know it sounds kind of cheesy but forgiving myself was what it took to move on. I'm at peace with what I've done and just try not to get back into those same patterns of what was really self-destructive behavior.
