Stupid things I am not doing again.....EVER!

[drewandian]

Reading reminds me of one thunderstorm...

I was trying to read a book but it was night and a lightning struck to a power plant and it resulted into a blackout. Well then I light a few candels and continued reading. All went well until I realized that my book was on fire!

Thank god nothing else caught on fire (except my hand ). I had one book less and few serious burns...

Stupid thing: reading book in candlelight, haven't done that again. Nowdays I just sit in the dark, alone with my toughts during blackouts...

that sounds like something I would do! We actually got a camping lantern (we don't camp) specifically so I don't set the house on fire with my candles.....

Kick a CPU with my bare foot (cough just did that cough).

I will never again check to see if a power socket is switched on by sticking a metal pin into the end of the extension cord that is a long way from the wall. I will just walk over to it to check.

I will also never again try to cut guinea grass with a machete from the opposite side of a barbed wire fence (the lowest wire), I almost slit my wrist. Still have a scar on the side of my wrist.
I will just walk around or jump the fence.

I will never leave open containers of chemicals laying around. I was about 15, my brother about 2. Parents weren't home. I was bleaching a couple of shirts and my bro picked up the cup and drank it, I was panicking, so I thought if anything is going to happen to him it's going to happen to me too, so I poured myself a cup and drank some too.

So keep chemicals away from children and don't drink bleach!!

My "Stupid things I have done" list is too long to post. Random sampling.

Do not cut open ice cream boxes - just missed severing a tendon to my index finger.

Do not hold a stubborn paint can while prying open with a screw driver - gashed open 2 knuckles and nicked the tendon to the same index finger.

Pay attention to the fact that the d@mn pan just came out of a 400F oven - semi-permanent impression of the handle on palm and fingers.

Alcohol burns almost invisibily - do not use it to light the charcoal for grilling.

Canoes are tippy little things which take great delight in watching their passengers floundering around in the water and choking. I don't care what falls overboard next time. The boat behind me can retrieve it.

OH - comment on the very first post. YES!! Waxing hurts like hades. I get the eyebrows shaped every couple months.

That is so funny, I've done that one too, except I was wearing a long cape, and down I went.

I managed to grab the hand-rail, and fortunately no-one was there to see me and ruin my college life indefinitely !!!

I will never drink WAY TOO MUCH peach schnapps in one night and then try to march in a parade the next morning (i played cymbals and if it hadn't been for my uniform jacket just might have lost some body parts that I'm rather fond of....)

[Supreme Commander Sil]

I will never spill my iced tea on my keyboard again ... I WANT MY ICED TEA !!!

[drewandian]

I will never spill my iced tea on my keyboard again ... I WANT MY ICED TEA !!!

that sucks....
and it makes me want iced tea too....

[Supreme Commander Sil]

Radenska lemon flavoured is the best . It's imported here, so you'd think it would be available there too....

[drewandian]

eh...not a big fan of lemon flavored iced tea actually....i have some chai downstairs...just too lazy to go mix it with milk.... lol

[Supreme Commander Sil]

eeww milk. Yay, ch"I" is Russian for tea
I decided I'd get over my embarrassment and post this here:
Waking up to my alarm, hitting my head on the ceiling, knocking myself out and dreaming I'm doing what I'm meant to be doing

Also:
Cutting the back-side of my hand on my evil desk (still have the scar from 4 months ago, it was reeeeeeeeeeeeeally deep )
Hitting my head on said evil desk.
Spilling calligraphy ink on the carpet *hides*
