I'm Really Stupid

Oh, until about a year ago I had no idea that pickles were cucumbers.

I'm 33 years old, y'all.

This thread made me chuckle.

I love her too

that is awesome

I do stupid stuff all the time. Can't remember what I've done lately though.

beethery · May 2014

Oh! I have another good one!

The other night I was making a pizza for dinner, and I began to have difficulties opening the package of fresh mozzarella.

FI will, unfortunately, never forget what I said.

"Fucking... god dammit, why? Why is this so hard? 'EASY OPEN', MY ASS!"

Ok, so I drive a manual car and part of the parking lot at my apartment complex is on a slight hill. One night I parked next to the back door because I had a lot of grocery bags and it was on the hill. After I fell asleep, I had a nightmare that my car's parking break was not on and it rolled down the hill and crashed into the cars parked at the bottom. I got up half asleep and moved my car to a more level area of the parking lot in the middle of the night. I have no idea why I moved it when I could have just checked the parking break and I never ever park the car without using it. I have no idea why I thought I didn't use it.

I drive a manual too and have the same weird paranoia sometimes even though I always park with the parking brake.

I am always afraid it will randomly break and my poor little car will do rolling.

My sister actually made this mistake and her car rolled down a hill and crashed into a dumpster. About $2500 worth of damage, and everyone in her office saw and heard the mess. She was so embarrassed.

I love this thread.

I just ran to mail a package and pick up a super late lunch. Driving back to the office, I was making a left turn onto a side street and stopped in a panic as a car came toward me on the road onto which I was turning... like I had momentarily forgotten what a green light meant and for whom I had to yield. Yes, I had the right of way. Green means go, Lolo. I blamed the lack of caprese panini in or around my face. That has since been remedied.

My mom didn't put the break on in my car once. She parked on her driveway, which is a giant hill. Luckily she left it in first, so it didn't roll down backwards. She doesn't get to drive my car anymore though.

@Cookie Pusher How?? That sounds terrible :C

Magic of some sort. I sleep like a rock - heavy and perfectly still. I'd blame FI except it's happened when he wasn't home too.

I finally hung 3 pictures in our kitchen last night. 2 were on the left of a window, the third on the right. All 3 are at different heights. They looked great/perfect up close but they look horrible from further away. This was perfect after convincing FI that at 35, I'm perfectly capable of hanging pictures by myself. He's ticked that his newly painted walls look like crap

We had a drunken Saturday night a few weeks ago. I got up in the morning and showered without looking in the mirror. It wasn't until FSIL pulled me aside that I found out I had a HUGE dark hickey on my neck. My hair was down most of the day so not everyone might have noticed it but we saw my parents in the morning and his entire family (20+ people) in the afternoon. Who the heck still gets (or gives) hickies at this age! Both FI and I were hanging our heads in shame!

Nothing wrong with getting wild with your FI, you just have to have some either Amazing Cosmetics or Dermablend concealer. Drink some tart cherry juice and eat some bananas regularly and that thing'll be gone soon.

Also, get a laser level and 3M picture hanging strips (they make ones that hold up to 16lbs EACH!!!), that shit changed my LIFE.

FI was making fun of my driving one day and I argued that I was a perfectly good driver. The next day I backed into his brand new Honda Accord (the super fancy souped up kind - prob spelled that wrong) and scratched it. He was pissed. I made up for it with cooking, dishes. and laundry on the weekend.

I don't know those brands but I have hte makeup to cover hickies- I just didn't know I even had one!

I need a laser level. I love the 3M picture strips but I'm actually hanging these after the 30 lb hooks fell and broke 2 of the 3 picture frames. They normally work but somehow hate this wall. We haven't figured out why!

I'm so afraid of doing that with one of FI's cars! He loves cars and fixes them for everyone. I'm scared to learn stick shift on his cars for fear of causing damage. I also avoid driving "his baby" whenever possible because I'm sure I'll hurt it!

They hate fresh paint. I don't know why.

I did this at the valet, of course I was taking super important clients to lunch at the time.

SapphireCounselor · May 2014

I didn't do too many stupid things this week...shocking to be honest since I do dumb things all the time. The one thing I did do was snap awake at 1 a.m. randomly on Monday. For some reason I thought it was 4 a.m. and time for me get up so I got my work out clothes on and started doing my normal morning thing before I came accross a clock. This was despite the fact that my phone had been on my bedside table next to me all along.

HisGirlFriday13 · May 2014

I do a lot of dumb things, frequently. I can't think of any right now, but that's mostly because I just woke up from a nap and I'm still groggy.

I did inadvertently leave a hickey on DH's pens the other week after a blowjob. He didn't find it quite as funny as I did.

Oh wow, I am just finishing up here at work, door wide open and this seriously just made me laugh out loud. The janitor just gave me the funniest look!

Ok, so I drive a manual car and part of the parking lot at my apartment complex is on a slight hill. One night I parked next to the back door because I had a lot of grocery bags and it was on the hill. After I fell asleep, I had a nightmare that my car's parking break was not on and it rolled down the hill and crashed into the cars parked at the bottom. I got up half asleep and moved my car to a more level area of the parking lot in the middle of the night. I have no idea why I moved it when I could have just checked the parking break and I never ever park the car without using it. I have no idea why I thought I didn't use it.

I drive a manual too and have the same weird paranoia sometimes even though I always park with the parking brake.

That's pretty much my nightmare. I am going to be so paranoid about this until I get a new car.

HaileyDancingbear · May 2014

90% of the time when a server or cashier at any food place says "Enjoy your meal" I say "you too" because I was prepared to respond to "have a nice day."

I refuse to listen to my body. I faint relatively frequently. I get a sudden drop in blood pressure, ears ring, vision goes, and sometimes I make it to the bed or the couch, but a week or two ago I hit my face on the front door of my apartment, because I was all like "Eh, I can make it to the bed, mind over matter." I really should have just sat down as soon as my ears began to ring, but no, I had to try to move on my own rather than ask for help. I remember taking a step, then FI going "Hailey, my love!" and I was extremely confused to find out I was on the floor and actually hit something, I didn't feel the actual impact. I felt the scrapes it left and having a sore jaw, but lucky me, I did not have to feel or remember my face actually hitting the door. FI helped me get to bed, which I should have asked him to do in the first place because looking back, I had no reason not to. He was right there and would have been happy to help. :P I'm totally fine now, I should just quit being so proud/ stupid and just admit it when I shouldn't be moving or standing.

Kristen625 · May 2014

I had to go to walgreens this afternoon to get my meds, and FI needed gift bags for his groomsmen gifts. So I told him I would pick them them up and then I paused and said I needed my drugs, but also something else but couldn't remember. I stopped at the post office first, and it was still bugging me that I couldn't remember I needed something other than my drugs until it hit me. I needed tampons...I'm currently ON my period. Like day 2 on it.

Fi made this mistake once at subway. He was parked on a small slope and we are eating and I see his truck moving so I yell and he runs out has to unlock the truck while it is moving and get in. Thank goodness it was a tiny tiny slope and wasn't going super fast, but he was super embarrassed and I still tease him about it.

mrscaty · May 2014

I was a freaking mess today at work.

I gave myself a pretty nasty burn because I'm not a patient person. I should have been wearing gloves but then again if I had been, I would have has to peel melted gloves off my skin on top of having a burn so I think I made the right choice.

I also burned out an element on our water bath because I turned it on without any water in it. Facepalm.

ETA: Then on my way home, I bought some twizzlers to make up for my shitty day and bit my tongue so hard it bled.
