Survey: Stupid Things

[Sarah-Leia]

What have you done in your life that has been hilariously stupid? Or am I perhaps the only one who can ever classify to post in this thread...let's hope not, otherwise I will be humiliated.

I once thought that I lost my glasses. I started to panic.

I was wearing them. Not just on top of my head, but actually wearing them.

Now, share.


SHARE!!!! :zap:

Last year I was talking to my niece about obeying traffic laws and I turned left on a red light. That was pretty stupid.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Once I was walking down the street and there was this seriously stunning woman walking across the road, so obviously I was looking at her and not where I was going. Unfortunately so was another guy walking towards me and so we collided, but just laughed when we both realised why!

[Obidobi]

I said yes to my exwife in church.. That was very stupid....

[Tovor]

This is sort of, kind of, like this thread here, in a way. It's archived though. :scratchchin:

Just sayin'.

[Tovor]

I said yes to my exwife in church.. That was very stupid....
:lol: x 88.

I wish that was posted in the Negating the Crap thread, because it's a good contender:

Crap- I said yes to my ex-wife in church.
Negating the Crap, we made 2 beautiful kids anyway. :yes:


That's not actually funny like the original statement was, but I do (try to) have a positive perspective towards certain things. :)

[Salacious Crumb]

It was a bright sunny day, and I went out the patio doors to take the rubbish out for collection. Unknown to me my friend had closed the doors, so on my return I smashed into them :blink:

It was such a shock, he told me it was the only time I had ever gone cross-eyed :banghead: What a noise it made too, I thought I had broken them. I now have one of those adhesive markers so you can tell when the door is shut.

[Aayla Secura]

Once I spent 20 minutes looking for a pencil that was in my hand the whole time.

I've also sent an email to someone saying to open the document I attached to it and...of course, I forgot to attach the document. :banghead: I've done this so many times!

[Sarah-Leia]

Started this thread without searching for similar threads. Stupid.

[leiaorgana]

Looking for my sunglasses when they were in my head :rofl:

[Obidobi]

:lol: x 88.

Erm... I made just one with that beotch... But yes...! I love him very much indeed!!!!

[Tovor]

Meh. I can't keep track of all the women and children you've had. :wink:

[Obidobi]

Me neither..... :giveup::rofl:

[Tovor]

:lol: That one just earned you a special rep from me. :ok:

[Darth Massacrus]

constantly and unintentionally misspelling 'Rogue' as 'Rouge'

[Sarah-Leia]

I did something stupid, very stupid the other day. I forgot what it was. That was stupid.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

I once stole a 4 foot high Alsatian dog which was the mascot for a local cricket club. More details available on request. :lol:

[Sarah-Leia]

Requesting now.

I put flour in my coffee.

[STar war spUNK]

I skipped school on an early release day in junior year of high school to visit my now ex-boyfriend at his school. I got caught and was almost charged for truancy, suspended from school, and revoked of my National Honor Society position (President).

stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid.

[Sarah-Leia]

Oh dear!

[JackBauer24]

I said "Sure, a transfer sounds fun!"

[Sarah-Leia]

I'm listening to an engaged phone tone for no reason.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

I'm listening to an engaged phone tone for no reason.

I imagine that the reason is that the person you are calling is already on the phone. :nahnah: :lol:

[Sarah-Leia]

No, but I was listening to it for about 5 minutes before I put the phone back down.

I did it again.

*sniff* I can't talk to Hannah!

[JackBauer24]

Dumb story:

At the entrance to the administrative offices of my company, there's a pair of large glass doors. One of the doors is always kept open. A couple of years ago, I had to go to the offices to pick up my check, and I was on my way out, opening the check as I walked. I looked up once and saw the doors in front of me and looked back down to read my check. Of course, I was off to the wrong side as I was walking and walked head-first into the closed half of the glass doors. Closed AND locked glass door. I had a headache for three hours!

[leiaorgana]

I'm listening to my cat snoring...

[Jedi Master Harrison]

I was carrying some shopping tonight and I had my jacket over my arm and it was slipping towards the floor but I thought I could open the front door in time. Nup, jacket on the floor, all sorts of crap over it, so I spent 10 minutes brushing it down. :banghead: End to a perfect day. :giveup: :mad:

:lol: Stupid, stupid Andy!

I did something stupid. I picked up my full to burst, filthy pencil case which is full of sharpenings, but I didn't know it was open. Now my floor is messy.

[JackBauer24]

Not something I did, but something I saw...

I pulled in to the parking lot at work this morning and as I was getting out of my car, I happened to turn around to look at the one-way road that our parking lot sits off of. As I'm watching, a large jeep heads down the road, swerving to avoid traffic. Going the wrong way. I honestly can't tell if this person was too dumb to realize what they were doing, or if they had a "I don't give a s**t" attitude about it. Either way, I kinda hope they get into a really bad accident and are never able to drive again.

[Slick]

I had the bright idea to walk home today as supposed to taking the bus. Ten miles is a lot further on foot than it is in a car or on a bike. :thud:

[Sarah-Leia]

I...did many stupid things, but I forgot them.

[Orandhite]

I once had an illuminous orange mini Boglin (a little monster creature thing) that I got free in a cereal box.

For some reason I kept it on my person (maybe because it's the same colour as I am).

Then one day, at grammar school, we were having an ENTIRE school photograph taken. And I mean EVERYONE. Pupils, teachers, dinner ladies, everything. And there were quite a few people.

Anyway, I thought it would be a REALLY good idea to hold my mini Boglin over someones shoulder in one, JUST ONE of the three photos that the photographer took. They take three photos and then choose the best one for everyone to buy if they want to.

I mean, they would never, EVER pick the one with an illuminous mini Boglin sitting on someone's shoulder now would they...

Basically, everyone who bought that photo has an extra individual in it that they probably were not expecting...

[JackBauer24]

I had a phone call at work the other day...so stupid. This woman calls up, asking if we have a location near 8 mile and Kelly, which is very far on the northeast edge of the city of Detroit. I told her where the closest location was (several miles away). She then asked, "Do you have any near 10 mile?"- which is outside of the city. I said "Nooo...we only have locations inside the city of Detroit." Her response? "Do you have any in Roseville?"

[leiaorgana]

ROFL :rofl:

[Sarah-Leia]

I was just looking at this photo of David Tennant (my avatar) and I said to Lily, "It's amazing how much this man looks like the Tenth Doctor from Doctor Who!"

I guess you had to be there.

[Slick]

I managed to give myself a paper cut on a safety manual. :glare:

[leiaorgana]

^Lol
well one of the most common things happen to me the other day, I went crazy all over the house looking for my sunglasses and I had them on top of my head all along :lol:

[Sarah-Leia]

^ ^ :rofl:

^ :lol:, I did the same except I went crazy looking for my glasses but I was wearing them PROPERLY as in LOOKING THROUGH THEM the whole time! :rofl:

I don't get it.

What is your work?
Where is Roseville compared to Detroit?
Why can you only have "locations" within the city?

[Darth Massacrus]

some stupid stuff:

people who watch infomercials

people who buy things from infomercials

infomercials that sell products that include an instructional video

people who actually need to consult the instructional video that came with their infomercial product because they forgot how to use, say, Oxyclean

[Sarah-Leia]

Amusing, but it has to be something stupid you did.

Example: I wore my glasses all morning and then took them off, meaning that during my debate I was extremely dizzy and when I had to speak I nearly fell over.

[Orandhite]

^ That wasn't stupid, that was dangerous! You could have...well, nearly fallen over.

[Sarah-Leia]

It's not dangerous.

[Orandhite]

I know, there was a hint of sarcasm in my post. A very small hint. Maybe even just a sprinkle... ;)

So my stupid thing is posting sarcastic replies that I don't emote properly. :(

[Kapit]

add a sarcasm tag!

That was awesome!

/sarcasm

[Darth Massacrus]

Amusing, but it has to be something stupid you did.


Oh, sorry. I meant that I watched an infomercial for a 'universal region disc DVD player' that would supposedly record to and read from any DVD from any world region. It didn't work, and neither did the instructional DVD that came with it (probably because the instructional DVD was only meant to be used on the machine itself).

[Sarah-Leia]

I understand now.

You probably just didn't want to live up to the shame of being so stupid.

That was smart.

Andy Jr, I don't usually wear glasses so I'm fine.

[Orandhite]

Andy Jr, I don't usually wear glasses so I'm fine.

"Andy Jr"? Do you mean me? Or am I being stupid? Again. :(

[Sarah-Leia]

Yes. I mean you; I don't know your name so Andy Jr. it is.

[Orandhite]

Would you like to know? Or are you enjoying the rather degrading nickname you have come with for me?

[Sarah-Leia]

Tell me your name, so I can continue to call you Andy Jr.

Why is it degrading? You're like a younger version of Andy!

[Orandhite]

Christopher. Middle name: "Andy Jr." ;)

You have just stated the exact reason why it is degrading.

[Sarah-Leia]

I'll just call you Gerard.

[Orandhite]

Don't do that - I'll get even more confused - he's one of the guys on the football team! Do you want me to have an identity crisis?

[Sarah-Leia]

I'll just call you Jeerrodd.

[Sarah-Leia]

Oh and:

1. It's my thread.
2. I'm not off topic because everything I say is stupid.

[Darth Massacrus]

You're only right about the first point, SL. :bye:


Anyways, something stupid that I did today was stepping in dog poop on the ground while I was trying to avoid stepping in another pile of dog poop on my way to dinner. All I can say is that I had to do takeout rather than eat-in.

[Sarah-Leia]

Aww, so you think I'm not stupid. Well, some things are stupid. Now that is a hilarious but stupid thing you did.

[leiaorgana]

Stupid things:

Last friday, we went with friends to a hotel to celebrate my friend priscila's birthday (the hotel has a disco, 2 bars, breakfast included, etc)... well in the morning, I was leaving my room to go have breakfast, the moment I closed the door behind me I realized I had my sleepers on!
Of course I returned to the room and change them.. :rofl:

[Sarah-Leia]

Slippers...or sleepers? That's funny, you mean slippers, don't you?

(Sleepers are earrings one can wear to bed :wink:)

I did that once...

[leiaorgana]

Lol! thanks, I do mean slippers :lol:

[Sarah-Leia]

:lol:

[Orandhite]

Whilst playing foosball, I hit a shot that looked like it was rolling in. I took my hand from the pole to the scoring slider and watched as the ball rolled off the line, in front of the opposition's keeper. I then continued to watch as my opponent scored a smacker of a goal using his keeper - the ultimate disgrace in foosball.

I ended up looking like a plum. My opponent had a big face. My advice - don't take your shirt off until the ball crosses the line.

[jedimasterElizabeth]

I laughed in my dreams(dreamt that i kill a Dark Jedi) and my grandparents thought that I had some problem(they thought i been crazy.). So they bring me to a Temple... You know....(Haiz)

[leiaorgana]

^ I know what you mean, sometimes I laugh in my dreams and when I wake up I'm still laughing or smiling ...

[jedimasterElizabeth]

^ you must be dreaming about your guy...:w00t:

[Orandhite]

One of they guys at work was telling me how internet zones on out intranet affected the way that programs can be run, so that sometimes you have to copy them to your local drive in order to run them, like compiled HTML help files.

"That's true," I said, "you sometimes get that with help files too."

Durrrr!

[JackBauer24]

My advice - don't take your shirt off until the ball crosses the line.

I generally follow that advice, because by then the lights are off and she's not looking at my unsightly gut.

[Kapit]

Tonight I was in the concession stand. Around 10ish I had this guy come up, buys some food, I give him his change, it's over, right?

Wrong.

He comes back real quick in a huff cause I gave him some sort of game token instead of a quarter. He's all mad and says "I want my quarter right now!" so I tell him "I'm sorry sir, I just closed my drawer, but if you wait a minute while I take care of this customer, I'll get you a quarter when my drawer opens back up." So he just stomps away all pissed, and I think that's the end of it and help a couple people.

Nope.

He comes stomping back and says "I want my quarter right now!" And of course, I had just closed my drawer again, so I tell him once again that I couldn't. He turns to whoever he's with and loudly says, "Whatever, I'm gonna go get a free movie."

As he walks away I turn to help the next person in line and just say under breath "He's not getting a free movie."

So it turns out he yells at the head manager, who was very close to losing her cool, apparently. The guy just wouldn't let it go. At one he point he says to her "Can I talk to her manager?" To which she replies, "I AM the manager."

My friend Alex was standing there the whole time, and he said it was just one of the funniest things he's ever seen because the guy keeps talking about how he's missing his movie over a quarter.

....Maybe that guy should have listened to what he was saying...

[Morridini]

Heh, make sure the next time he come to see a movie you have a game token nearby to give him again.
