I don't have an exact count, but I haven't had too many WAM sessions. I'd estimate between 20 and 30 times.

The first WAM experience I had was pieing myself with a huge shaving cream pie in middle school. I used some shaving cream left over in a can that my dad never really used. I did a few small solo things (cake, mud) until few years later the summer after high school, where I actually convinced some friends to get pied. Did a couple WAM things that summer.

I didn't get to do any WAM in college, which looking back now I regret (would have been a great time to do so since I lived in the dorms). However I did get a couple sessions with other friends during breaks. Ironically (?) I did some pies stuff with college friends right after graduation. (Some of these are public videos on youtube.)

It took over 4 years after graduation to have another chance to WAM with someone, but it was worth it, as it was the first time I got to slime someone, which was great. After that I had another pie only event with a couple friends. Since then I've done a handful of sessions with both pies and slime, but only once per 2 to 3 years.

So overall it's not a lot of mess, but I really do treasure the stuff I have been able to do.
