    hmmm stupid things ...I have a list a mile long but I'll mention two events of one day in particular... it was a bad day, it's not the most stupid but quite embarrassing though:

    I Walked into a Glass Store Window in a crowded shop thinking it was a automatic door - I was in a bit of a mood at the time and after a heated discussion with a associate I "Stomped off".... straight into the window... I left a large forehead makeup print on glass and felt like an absolute knob.

    This event was followed by one of the more dangerously stupid things I've done - later that same day I stacked it in heels down a flight of stairs at same shops ( approx 15 or so steps) face-planting it at the bottom (very dignified) .... in a skirt... skirt was not intact at the end of fall (either was my ankle) it was a bad day :(.
    On plus side... the doctor who treated me at emergency was yummy and I had an excuse to buy a new skirt. :) I now wear skirts with more stretch and put my hand out before walking through automatic doors.

    After having a marathon of 24 hours on a swing and slept for like 4 hours in 48 hours, went driving myself home, barely able to open my eyes and i noticed at 1 point i was sleep driving, woke up just before i see the headlights of the other car.

    At least decided to put the car next to the road and sleep for hour or 2 before going back home again

    Have to be careful with those 24hr swing marathons

    Sounds fun tho :blushing:

    raced a quad and went around a turn full throttle and flew off into a barb wire fence! The barb wire fence won!

    Took my first race bike (motorcycle) to a practice day and started to get serious handling problems on one very fast corner. So instead of trying to fix the problem I went faster and faster until the bike threw a tank-slapper.

    Into the Armco barrier at about 80mph, came round minus my crash helmet and in a whole world of pain from where I'd bent the handlebars with my knees and crushed the fuel tank with my "gentleman's vegetables".

    On the bike, 156mph about 1" from the mirror past what I thought was the ex-wife in her car, after watching it hit the brakes in my mirror, I realised it was not the ex-wife. oops!

    My ex husband decided it would be fun for me to drive the car, we swapped seats and I carefully steered the car for around 2 or 3 miles along an ordinary road ..... the only problem with this scenario is Id never taken a lesson or passed a test in my life! makes me sweat to think about it now. He is my ex for a reason haha. Ditto another boyfriend said have a go of my motor bike its easy. So I opened the throttle all the way lol and next thing I was in a hedge. I dont remember the bit in the middle.

    Jumped a incline to decline set of railroad tracks at 65 mph in a 1988 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor... with a train coming.

    The car did not survive, shocks and tires exploded as me and the person in shotgun hit the ground.

    I do miss that car.

    Nothing really dangerous but most definitely stupid. I was driving and had a freak out that I'd left my car keys at home. Whilst I was driving. I pulled over and phoned my housemate who just laughed at me for five minutes before asking me if I'd looked in the ignition. I feel that qualifies as stupid? :ohwell:

    Ditched school with my girlfriend. 1971. Drove my '51 Plymouth to Millerton lake with her. Looking for a place to park and "make out". Saw a finger of land jutting out into the middle of the lake. Thought I'd ride out there. Didn't realize the water level was dropping and that finger of land had just risen out of the ground during the night. By the time I realized and tried to turn back, my car slid into Millerton Lake.

    Here's the really dangerous part. Had to call my Dad. His sense of humor was lacking.

    Trying to swerve away from a spider that was descending from the ceiling. After a moment's chaos I pulled over and squished it. In my defense, this happened after Anime Boston in which I had little to no sleep all weekend and was exhausted almost to the point of tears.

    Hahaha!!! you win!!!

    the only one I'll mention here...freak out because a bee crawled up my shorts and I didn't want to get my girl parts stung, when I finally pulled over I jumped out and took off my shorts, I'm sure people driving by thought I was crazy.

    I put four coffees in a coffee holder to bring home to my family. (Parents and brothers, I was 20.) They slid off the seat and landed on the floor where my art portfolio was "stored" haha. I grabbed for the coffee, took out a telephone pole. Totaled the car. Did not get one ticket though :)

    I got hammered in London in the middle of the night with no money and no cell phone fifteen miles from my apartment.

    Don't worry, guys. I found a nice Saudi guy to give me a ride home.

  • When I was in the Air Force stationed in England. We had just watched Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde then we went out drinking in London, some time (not sure what time it was) foggy night, drunk off our *kitten*....running through Hyde Park playing hide and seek. Must admit...it was a tad-bit scary.
