Some Kids I Used to Know
Stories of Shenanigans, Debauchery and Growing Up
by Ettore Pesco


Andrew and his friends are bored with life and their only joy is creating
chaos and mischief. They’re highly talented, with aspirations and limitless
expectations, but they look for other sources of excitement and fulfillment.
It all begins with harmless pranks, but they continue to raise the bar,
crossing into the realm of cruelty and criminal behavior. Always looking to
the next big thing that will provide a sense of invulnerability, power, and
control, Andrew and his friends need a rush—each one greater than the one
before—spinning real-life legends of shenanigans, debauchery, and growing up.
Some Kids I Used to Know is a culmination of some of those stories.
