+Dave 2,322 Posted October 18, 2009 About 10 years ago Sheila and I lived in apartment in San Antonio when I was a TI. We didn't have alot of money and we wanted cable in our bedroom. The cable outlet in our bedroom would of cost extra. Well I got a splitter and I ran the cable to the bedroom from the living room. Well not paying attention, I took the end and plugged into the cable outlet in the wall in our bedroom. Then I turned the TV on. Cable wasn't working. I sat around for 10 mins trying to figure it out when Sheila walks in and says, "Hey dummy, you plugged it into the wall." DOH! no wondering it didn't work. So I unhooked it and plugged it into the back of the TV and all was well. Sheila has never let that one go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So whats your story? :salute:Flag and Dave, you guys know English is not my mom's tongue tho I started to use the language (overseas when my late dad worked there) at 5.5. years old, the word "stupidness" rang the radar in my ears. Mine got rusty perhaps but is it not "stupidity" instead? Thanks Btw I wish to share with you and others here my own stupidity when I SHOT my self in the little finger when I was cleaning my handgun at mid-night Saturday (Sunday had been my shooting-range days years ago). I was in a shock I felt no pain, just watching the little finger hanging there thanks to the tendon left. My wedding ring was blasted too! An emergency call got an answer: "Who shot you?" :I did!" said me, went downstair covered the limp little finger with a white thick towel my wive frantically gave me. Ten minutes later, in the ambulance, the paramedic gave me a pain killer shot as the wound started to jab jab jab me. You know what happened next? The ambulance went to a wrong hospital in the County. So, it then sped to the city's hospital -- 20 miles away! It took six hours for the doctors to perform a micro surgery, putting the rest of my little finger back, less some inches of bone. I was confined to the hospital room for two full days. It had been snowing then. Stupid me. One hollow-point bullet had still been in the tip-up barrel of my .25cal Jet Fire. So, me now like a YAKUZA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SayethWhaaaa 245 Posted October 19, 2009 I lock my keys in my car on a regular basis unless I have them chained to my pants on one of those little punk chains. I amaze myself as to how often I do it. Also, in the current Suzuki Swift, there's a small square cup holder kinda thing between the seats and behind the handbrake where things, phones, keys, PSPs etc simple vanish for days for me. I lost a phone for a week and it was sitting in that, the devil's little bastard holder thingo, for something like five days. If my gf finds out about it, I'll never live it down.

MaverickMike 10 Posted October 19, 2009 I actually done something stupid yesterday morning. I was going to make cheese on toast so I started grating the cheese and noticed that I had used the last of it, after finishing with the grating I then proceeded to throw the grated cheese into the bin..... Dont ask me why I did it because I honestly dont know. I had to have scrambled egg instead. Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OvS 8 Posted October 21, 2009 Recently my wife and I FINALLY decided to put some money into our house and have it renovated (well... new siding, door, window, roof). So we go and buy this really nice ThermaTrue door, which has a fiberglass veneer. It's time to stain it, and to do fiberglass, you have to use Gel Stain... never tried it, in fact, I have little experience with staining as all moldings and doors in my house I painted white... so off I go.. staining. Well... what I am used to, is NOTHING like this Gel Stain. It's like brushing creamed Honey. It's sticky as hell, gums up in 2 strokes... looks overlapped as hell... on and on and on... and I'm cursing like hell, panicking as this is a $3K door here!!! Neighbors are looking out the windows at me... I'm ready to go ballistic... I mean this door and the side windows are looking REALLY BAD!!! It looks like it was sanded and painted over in two different shades of brown. Streaks... unbalanced... the works... real amatureish.. like an old faded door. Finally, after arguing with my wife about how I just screwed it all up... wasted all our money... I'm a jerk.. should have paid to have it done... I walk away totally pissed off... I walk by the ThermaTrue door catalouge on the table, look down at it... low and behold there is my door.. and it looks exactly the same as the finish on my door. It's actually supposed to look like this. Now I love it. It does look pretty cool. Go figure. OvS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast 153 Posted October 27, 2009 Some days it can be getting out of bed that starts it all... Where I live its off the road so off I wandered down to the bike to go out for a spin one bright sunny Sunday morning. I get to the bike place my helmet down at the side of the bike start the engine pull on my gloves and leave guess I was still half asleep as I get pulled just as I get onto the road!!! Helmet was still where I left it... back where I store the bike!!! The policewoman was laughing her head of when I pointed out where my helmet was... at least it was still in my bike store wasnt feeling too bright that day... Or the time you go to the range and fire 5 sighting shots and end up with 35 holes in your target... thankfully not my stupidity that day... girl on the next lane didn't like her rifle.
