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

Doh! I wasn't doing anything Wilso! What I said to him just came out wrong. I am innocent as the driven snow, I swear!

The driven snow? You mean the stuff that turns all brown and despoiled on the street? :-)

Heeven! Heavens... that's too funny!

Eva -- Cav's right. Use a whisk, girl.

Roger -- I had some trouble finding a non-felted spot on my car, too. The Explorer was fine, it was the Volvo (which will lock on its own) that gave me the trouble. Have you ever seen the film, PowWow Highway and the big guy who calls his car, My War Pony? That's the way my cars are now... ready to go.

Joe -- Do you really think that guy was gonna roll ya? How creepy! I normally don't like basketball, but that was great! Cool story.

PrincessAsh -- I now have three small cuts on my right hand. Is this a sympathetic thing or what? Hope yours are healing.

ROTFLMAO, p'ash & Heeven!

Wilso...I'm in the USA. (shuddering at the thought of 240v in Oz!)

Joe...I was really hoping you wouldn't find this thread. You're not going to tell my electrical genius husband about this, are you? He would never let me live it down. So glad to hear you weren't mugged! Next time, please sacrifice your favorite seat for a safer spot. Just for me?

I also hope I don't electrocute myself any time soon - who knows what I would say to the paramedics!

Or what position they'd find you in. . .

Eva: What would I email to your dear (semi-longsuffering spouse)???
Dear ______ did you know that your honey likes to lick whipped cream off of electrically charged devices??? He might get confused and think I was referring to him,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I would like to report that, so far, today, I have not done one stupid thing.

This by far surpasses my previous record of a minimum of 3-5 hours.

Ok, ok, I did something really stupid and, frankly, I am a bit hesitant to talk about it. Here's the deal:

I have this part time job as a maintenance worker in this apartment complex. The other day I had an order to check out some sort of electrical problem in this woman's apartment. I got there around noon, knocked on the door, nobody home. I let myself in with the master key and started walking toward the kitchen where the problem was supposed to be.

Nice place. Lots of cool furniture and statues, some nice paintings on the wall -- very clean.

Then I saw them. Sitting out in plain sight on the dining room table was an assortment of sex-toys. Hundreds of them! All sizes and shapes. It was horrifying!

As I scurried past the table I accidentally brushed it and some of those damn toys came to life, buzzing and vibrating across the table, almost as if they had a life of their own.

I darted into the kitchen and fixed the electrical problem, then left the woman a note and got the hell out of there.

It was stupid of me to have left that note, and actually to have even fixed the electrical problem. I should have just pretended that I was never there.

Now that poor woman is probably quite embarrassed.

I am SO gullible.

hehehe pash..but, you're cute..its okay

I emptied out the load of coins in my coin purse and put it next to my pocketbook to place in before I went out. Well, I always leave some coins...you just never know when you need change.
I forgot to close the zipper though and when I picked it up..coins went flying everywhere.
Could have been worse, could have been full.

I also decided that when I was standing in line at the store and saw sugarbabies that I havent had those in soooo long and they would be a nice treat. They were great until I almost swallowed my crown. I spent my lunch at the dentist replacing it. Must only eat sugar babies and those type things on the other side of my mouth. But, I forget about that. Could have been worse..could have swallowed it...then perplexed on what to do.

I SAID my husband was an electrical genius...I did NOT say that HE requires charging!!!!

Quinn! I'm so sorry about your crown!

Thanks..luckily insurance covered everything and I have been reminded once again about having it
The headache will be gone by tomorrow Im sure.

ouchie. How I wish I had dental insurance.

well, it worked in this case...dont actually work in all of them. I also pay for it every paycheck so, you know..it helps to use it on occassion.

mmmm

hmmmm, gus, how exactly did you 'accidentally brush' some of those sex toys? did you accidentally play with them? heee hee. but i think you did the right thing. why should you be embarassed and come another time - waste your time when it was not you who did anything awkward. to heck with the lady - she announced she had a problem, she should have expected somebody would come to fix it.

Dag, you may not have read the entire thread. Heeven offered this...



Does that clear things up?

I sprayed a fly with cooking oil - possibly only slightly better than if I had sprayed the frypan with fly spray.
