So I spent the last several hours unplugging my modem every once in a bit then plugging it back in, in hopes to revive the internet... come to find I had switched the laptop's Wireless switch to off much earlier without noticing What's your latest bout of idiocy?

Waiting until there was a day left before I started working on my mousetrap powered car for physics class.

Waiting an entire week of the Christmas season before stocking up on my eggnog supply

Started caring in that way about someone when I promised myself that I wouldn't challenge my emotions like that again.

Too 'downerish'?

After spending the past few months trying to figure out how to remove my phone's battery and SDcard, I remembered the existence of Google and had them both out within 2 minutes.

So when will you be returning to Dakka Dakka?

Didn't say I was a hardcore raider or player. Wife has me on "Wife Control"

Swimming in my pool during a hurricane.

Buying product from a GW store.

Last dumb thing i did was about an hour ago. Im cutting down a branch of a tree outside my bedroom window while standing under it.........

Now i have a whomping headache and i cut my arm when i dropped the saw. Im not a particularly smart person.

Just today; went outside in 10* weather without my coat on.

I didn't realize I was going to get my cart stuck in the snow, so I didn't think I would be out there as long as I was....

Woke up on time, and while half asleep, thought I was late and called my boss and told him I would be late.

He was like "Um, you do realize you don't have to be here for another hour, right?" (he knows that it's a ten minute drive from my house).

Me: "Oh."

Him: Click.

I came to work today...
Other than that, I don't think I should post many of the stupid things I've done, no one would _ever_ take me seriously

Bought a thunderhawk.

Spent twenty minutes looking for my glasses before realizing I was wearing them.

Managed to slice my thumb with a plastic grocery bag. Bled for close to ten minutes. How? Lord knows......

Done that, went to sleep and woke up and immediately started to take a shower. Next thing I know my mom was knocking on the door asking me what I was doing through the door. I told her I was taking a shower. She told me that it was 11 o'clock, I stopped the shower and then went back to bed. I didn't have to be to school for another nine hours, this was back in my high school days though.

One time I showed up to work 4 hours early, I do that a lot.

Cut myself on a cardboard box.

Pretty much the equivalent of a massive paper cut.

I read the OT forum.

Dropped my hand on my own lap a bit too hard........

My boy has to do that project too! Kewl!


Mine - getting up this morning. This whole not winning the Lotto thing is really starting to bum me out.

Told a girl exactly what I thought about her when she asked me to. Pretty much screwed up any chance with her I imagine

I actually got into the science academy in Australia for my entry. Think vinyl for wheels, and a long arm on the mousetrap, slow movement is better, and of course use a couple of spare vinyls.

This was a couple years back. I actally stapled my finger

I accidently the thing.

Stayed up until 5am reading dakka then slept for 26 hours solid.
