Here Share your stories of the worst things that have happened to you, now i mean like happened to you because of something you did, not saying your friend got in a car wreck, cuz that wasn't your fault, im talking about those stupid things we do that if we would have just slowed down and thought about it, it would have never happened. anyhoo, here goes

Today i stopped by a auto salvage shop, to get a spare tire, because one of my tires (Front right) had a leak in it, so i go and get the spare, put it on my car and take the other tire to get fixed, and me and my friend are driving around town, and we com upon this dirt road and I was fishtailing (On purpose) and then i spun to far and there was a curb hidden in the grass and i hit that putting a huge dent into my new (sort of) rim.

GRRR, anyhoo, got my tire fixed so it's all good.

I was once unable to find a thread in which to make a frivolous post.

Hmm...lets see...dumb stuff I've done...

That would be Asq. + Bsq. = Csq.

3 squared + 4 squared = 5 squared

That would also be PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM :)

I thought he could have meant that was one of the dumbest things he ever did... like in a test he called it the pathagaream theory, and thought it was a^2 * b ^2 = c^2...

Let's see...stupid things I have done... *pulls out a book* Volume 1: The Early years...

My High School consisted of preparation for a Stupid Stuff Major in College. I have a PHD. :D

Stupidest? That's way too tough to answer. There are so many varieties of stupid!

Here's one of my dumber stunts.

After one first-period phys ed class in my senior year of High School, one of my buddies who was also on the wrestling team with me had a dare/bet for me and a couple other dumb jocks. The bet was pretty simple: He bet us that we couldn't last one school period with our testicles wrapped up in an ace bandage. Well, four ace bandages and four stupid naked kids wrapping them up like mummies later, we go on to our respective classes. Now, I'm in A.P. Chemistry and the bandage which was very snug has started to get EXTREMELY snug! Painfully so. Within ten minutes, I'm in considerable pain. It's like having my nuts in an ever-tightening vice. The pain just keeps increasing and increasing! Little did I know, that I was the last guy in the contest. The others had already given up. But as the period went on, and time dragged by, my teacher began to notice my distress. "Are you sick?" He asked? He didn't know the half of it. I bolt out of the classroom and close the door. Right there in the hallway(nobody around), I yank down my pants and underwear and release the ace bandage. I unravel it, and marvel at the feeling of freedom. The agony rapidly subsides. "Ahem." My Chemistry tracher is standing behind me. I didn't hear him open the door and follow me out. "As I try to stammer out some kind of explanation, he just holds up both hands, rolls his eyes and walks back into the classroom.

A few minutes later, I go back into the classroom, only the smirking teacher knowing what had happened just outside the door.

Wow, thanks for sharing. I needed a good laugh.

Anyway, stupidest thing I've ever done was run into a parked car with my bike. I really can't think of anything else very stupid.

On my third attempt at my driving test I ran into another car. A parked car. In the DMV parking lot. While backing out. :(

In 4th grade I jumped off a bridge on a dare, breaking a couple of bones in my right foot.

I tried to hold back a good Aussie mate from getting in a bar fight. I have probably 30-40 kg on him, but he's all muscle, and went through me like shit through a goose. Reminder to self - never, ever try to hold back the one time all Australia pro-Muy Thai champion when he is enraged at an idiot who delibarately poured a beer over his wife's head. (>_<)

I once answered a previous girlfriend's question about her appearance honestly. :eek:

Stupid things I've done
- Drink one and a half bottle of whiskey when I was already drunk
- Falling on my face while trying to jump my bike over a 10 cm deep ditch
- Playing trampoline in a band

And now for the grand finale:
I work in a youth centre/discotheque. Every year we have a trip for all the volunteers. It's completely free (drink, food everything) and started at 5 pm. The bar was open so we did some heavy drinking. I thought the food would arrive soon, but that was not the case. After drinking hard for 5 hours the food finally arrived. As drunk as I was I did not eat much, but I drank even more. After the food we had a "suggling route". We had to take several objects and visit some games along the route, but not get caught by "the police". I was the one who would carry the crate of beer... big mistake. At the first game the crate was empty. I did one third, and we were in a group of 10 people. I don't remember much after, but I was told I made it to the next game. The game was simply drinking real strong bacardi-coke. I did half a liter. On the next part of the route I got lost and when the others found me, my face was bleeding (and the bleeding would not stop because of the alcohol). I had been walking on a field with a bottle of beer I nicked at the last game. I tripped and fell with my eyebrow on the bottle. They took me to a hospital where I got patched up.

The day after that we had a day-out with my mothers family and all of my cousins... My head hurt like hell :(

LG, I haven't sat here laughing out loud for a while, until you came along.
