Stupid things you have done just to look macho!

Voltex

Basically I got my hands covered with a waterbased ink today thats a total shocker to try and get out...so I got some very heavy duty degreaser (Sodium hydroxide) and washed my hands with it...(trying to show off to the women in the office).

Right now my hands feel like Im wearing a pair of latex gloves 2 sizes too small and my skin looks like that of a 80 year old, chain smokers scrotum!

so any other totally stupid things just to look cool?

had a drinking competition with a bird i fancied racing a pint of cider, which i drank in about 3 seconds only to come back up and all over the floor about 15 seconds later.

Rush to the jacks and give yourself the best "stranger" you've ever had.

One time I was in a pub playing pool and for one reason or another 2 lads took a dislike to me and started, I knew I'd get my head kicked in if I fought back so instead I lifted my glass and slammed it into a table

I needed 9 stitches but the 2 scummers walked away

Not so much macho as sexy (being female and what not..)

At Oxegen a few years ago I was a bit tipsy and walking towards the main arena. Group of quite attractive men to my left. Made eye contact with one as I was walking and then realised I was about to walk through someone taking a photo. Decided to be super sexy and limbo under the eye line of photo, y'know, show my flexible side etc. Anyway, I bent over backwards and when I was out of the way of the camera I tried to straighten up but completely over compensated for how far back I was and fell face first in to the mud.

NO!

I m embarrassed just thinking about it.

Iron Hide

playing a gig once i decided to stand up while keeping the beat going on the bassdrum (a la Lars Ulrich), completely forgot that i was up on a drum riser, it was a very low ceiling and i am almost six foot five...

I once demanded that i be put in a cage with a tiger, a bear and a tigerbear in order to show off my power and fighting skills.

I died shortly after and was buried in tir na nog.

Fear not OP. The above statement has rendered any accusations of "macho" directed at you redundant. :pac:

Eh, it's waterbased. Water removes it. I work with waterbased paint every day, and yes, once it drives it's hard to shift, but warm water, and the rough side of one of those sponges you use for doing dishes (You know, green and rough on one side, soft and yellow on the other) and it's gone in no time.

Anyway, most macho thing that wasn't? Wheelied past some girls, and overcooked it. Had to pick up pieces of fairing and drive home with them stuck to the back of the bike. Not pleasant.

Simply Red

In the shop i work in, a customer had just bought a coffee table, and i was about to bring it out to her car for her. Instead of getting a trolley, i decided i could carry it out since it wasn't too heavy. Bent down to pick it up, and heard that unmistakable ripping noise! Ran through a sea of customers trying to hold my cacks together, then spending the next half an hour in the jacks trying to sew them back together

Also very macho.
