What's the dumbest thing you've done recently?

I'll let you define recently, but I'm sure we've all done something that makes us feel like complete dolts.



I've read some of your threads. I pay attention. And something tells me you lil' monkeys excel at stupidity from time to time.

blending up something in a cup that was too small


a bit like this but with this:

i spilled a soda all over myself whilst getting out of my car and then in my anger, i slammed the already-locked door shut with the engine running.

I cut my schnoodle's fur with scissors and he was supposed to look like this:




but looks more like this:

on or around may - i took a new job with a rival employer .

he would say i was a slacker and fired me .

i was tryin to do the ole "work 3 jobs and do a decent job" .... he wanted me to just quit the other jobs and i couldnt do that without trusting him 100% ...

long story . i lasted 2 weeks . (in defense of me - he did promise me a few things that never occored so ... i couldnt leave the other sources of income )

Expected more out of certain people.

Dropping my mobile phone AND my brand new Ipod into a toilet - at the same time. Don't ask...

Luckily, I have insurance for each. Explaining how the damage caused was a bit weird.

Oh, and getting home from the pub late at night, putting the rubbish out to be collected the next day, locking myself out of the house, cycling back into town to pick up my housemate's key, then cycling back... only to find I had the key on me the entire time.

Falling for someone at a nearby nightclub - best described as a "meat market" to be brutally honest - and the said person being in a relationship already.

The wife and I went Back-to-school shopping these past 2 days.
We bought the bookbags, the school supplies, new eyeglasses for 2 of them, and had lunch at a BBQ joint.

THEN we remembered that my car payment comes out yesterday (automatic debit).

Needless to say, we're walking around with like $40 until next Thursday.

I have been pretty smart lately.

As for me I refuse to think about it .

Yeah, we were in denial until this weekend (school starts Tuesday) which is why it hit us so hard.
This just after my wife spent 3 weeks in Florida with the kids, which is supposed to be a cheap vacation since they stayed with the in-laws...but I can't even begin to tell you how expensive that turned out to be.

sorry but

I don't even know where to start. I am a huge vat of simmering stupid lately.

Went to walmart...back to school MADNESS!
anywho...I paid for my stuff & got 100$- cashback...& then her debit machine FROOZE..we stood there for 30 minutes waiting for it to un-freeze...I had to call my bank to make sure the transaction went through...

so i finally said..were going! i dont care if i dont have a receipt..i dont have anything worth returning.
what amazed me was...they were clueless about how to handle the situation. 5 cashiers & 1 supervisor had no clue about what to do except stand there & wait for it to UN-FREEZE.

Stayed up ALL night so I won't miss work,,,,and now I'm doing such an effort not to dose off.

My sleeping routine has been fucked up lately.

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone

The dumbest thing I did recently was drink a bunch of gin and tonics last night.

Trying to seduce a woman who already told me she was on her period.

"Weighing all the options" instead of following my heart... then thinking that "speaking my mind" was the best solution.
Some things are better left unsaid.

You and my wife should meet. She did exactly that last night too.

As for me, hmmm, probably just the usual. If I have two things in my hand I'll put them back in each others' places. Say a spoon in the trash, used napkin in the fridge, scissors in the laundry basket or underwear in the cupboard, that kind of thing.
