Stupidity, how has it affected you?

I stupidly stood by my ex-wife when she did a stupid thing and I knew she was stupid yet I still married the stupid ****wit " divorced now gratefully" I got sucked in by her stupidity ' 'it does happen' :eek: Stay away from stupid people as stupidity is a disease.

And I thought this was a fluffy thread

Love the username bitter....really enhanced the tone of your post

I was quite drunk for my birthday this year. And when people said happy birthday I actually said "thanks you too a few times"...

Ah alcohol related stupidity..
Another classic example is thanking the atm for giving you money.. :rolleyes:

Or (lol) walking into a pole or a chair, and then apologising to it.

Ever been ironing and the phone rings? ouch:eek:

I turned a corner and nearly bumped into a dog. While walking around him, I apologised by saying 'sorry'.

And so you should. He was probably late for his meeting with Crufts because of you.

Bought a cross trainer, put it in the bedroom, ignoring comment of "it's big someone will walk into it"... one week later, need a piss, leave lights off so not to disturb missus... the head height handle manages to hit me, very directly, in the eye... loud shout and black eye... and lots of "I told you that would happen"... which always helps!!!!

Jump out of the shower.........ooops no towel.....run into my room onto the wooden floor and bam.....feet in the air and crack onto the ground like a sack of spuds!! a minute or two lying there wondering if i can get up!!

"A watched pot never boils" I remember debating with my brother that the mere fact of watching it somehow actually made it take longer to boil. He then scientifically pointed out that this wasn't true... it just seems so, as you are focussing on it and feeling impatient.

I truly did believe the former until then. Eejit! :eek:

CockneyGirl · 25-01-2011 12:52PM

One winter's day when I was getting ready to go to work (in a rush as usual), I left the house in the dark and it was only when I arrived at my office that I glanced down and noticed that I had one black shoe on and the other was navy. (I had two pairs of shoes the same style but different colours). Thankfully, I dont think anyone noticed. At least, no-one made any comment.

This happened to my best friend - we were out one night and had called a cab to take us onto somewhere else. When the cab arrived, I got into the back seat and she went around and opened the driver's door and tried to get in. Much to the surprise of the driver! She had forgotten that she wasnt driving that night. I was in hysterics.:D

So, I'm the only one guilty of raising my hand in school when answering a question and yell 'mum! instead of 'miss'! The fluhucking shame of it!

it's a hell of a lot worse if it happens in work

i used to pronounce "elevenses" in a thick spanish accent until my mam pointed out that it refers to the time...

rusty_racer94 · 25-01-2011 08:06PM

Once I said ''My incestors'' instead of ''My Ancestors'' out loud in the class.

Debthree · 26-01-2011 04:03PM

I bump threads that have posts about me in them doing stupid things.

Ficheall · 26-01-2011 04:28PM

This thread is hugely disappointing.

Walked into a fountain in a shopping centre while sending a text. I don't think anybody spotted me, thankfully.

You definitely picked the right username anyway....

On waking in a boiling bedroom massively hungover and still drunk I reached out for a glass of water I had left by the bed. Without opening my eyes I took a large swallow from a bottle of aftershave.

rusty_racer94 · 27-01-2011 10:15PM

Today at afterschool studies, I came into the class, it was so quite that you could hear your own heart beat, everyone was busy working away their homework and preparing for exams...I went over to my desk and as I turned around, I knocked down 2 chairs which were on the table....Sooooo embarassed!!

_feedback_ · 27-01-2011 10:53PM

On one of the cold mornings recently, I was just out of bed and I went out to the car to turn it on to defrost. It was quite early and very very quiet.

I was just reaching out to open the car door when I heard a dog barking behind me.

I SCREAMED like a big girl, I screamed really loud. I also jumped straight in to the car. I then could not believe what I had just done.

Think it was just because I was half asleep, but mad the way you react without thinking!

To make matters worse, the dog looked something like this !

Guill · 28-01-2011 11:44AM

Recent one for me:

I breed Chickens.
I hatched them out 7 months ago,
Fed them, watered them, treated them.
Housed them and built secure run.
Raised them to laying age. Keeping Fox at bay.
The last three weeks i have be waitning for them to lay their first egg.
Got one yesterday!
Dropped it on the way into the house.

FFS.

Have to share this one...

Was in Tesco last night, walking down the large middle aisle, so all the grocery aisles were either side of me. As I was pushing the trolley, I was kinda day dreaming and then suddenly copped I needed to go down the fruit and veg aisle... so I moved my hand along the trolley and did the same hand movement I would do to hit the indicators on my car. Obvioulsy nobody could see I see this, but I couldnt' stop laughing to myself, the muppet I am!!!!!

This is actually very terrible:

I worked in a toy shop years ago, and one Christmas I sold a gameboy or some such device to a woman as a santa present for her kid. Only thing was, I sold her the display box, and forgot to put the gameboy inside it. So, Christmas morn, the kid runs downstairs full of expectation and joy, tears open his present only to find it empty! And I saunter into work Stephens' Day to find a long, rather angry, expletive filled fax from the irate mother!! I still feel bad about it, but can;t help giggling whenever I remember it. Poor kid is probably scarred for life. I've probably played a decisive role in the development of Ireland's next serial killer!

I got a playstation 1 game for christmas a few years ago. I opened up the case of "Smackdown: 2000" only to find a manual with no disc. I broke down and cried. I hope your happy.

TheBody · 28-01-2011 08:32PM

Got up for work one morning. VERY SLEEPY. Sat on the edge of the bed and put on my socks and shoes. Stood up and discovered that I forgot to put on my trousers!!

Guill · 29-01-2011 09:55AM

Got up this morning, made a cup of coffee, Added coffee, sugar, milk, and then water, took a mouthful, Agh Bisto!
