We all have done something really stupid at one time or another. Not things like getting married, buying something that you should not have done, I mean something like this:
About fifteen years ago I locked myself out of my car. After about 30 minutes of trying to get the door open with a coat hanger I gave in and called AAA. This took place around 1AM and remember I don't drink. After about forty minutes of waiting the AAA driver showed up and within 20 seconds had the car door open. When I asked him about the tool he used he showed me his hand and said it was easy, the passenger back window was down!
Let's hear your story.

 

Great story, Maury. I'm sure I've got plenty of stories...not sure I want to tell though....

When I was young I wanted to play a joke on my brother. He had 2 cans of spray paint he used for painting his model cars. My idea was to paint the 2 caps the opposite color to confuse him. After I painted the blue cap red and the red cap blue a friend of mine asked, " Why didn't you just switch the caps?"
I'm 1/2 polish!

 

One time I walked down the busiest street in my city with the back of my skirt caught up in the TOP of my pantyhose. One whole side of my derriere was exposed to anyone who chose to look. Didn't find out about it until I went into the bank. A lady told me I may want to check my skirt.

 

I'm sure I've got plenty of moments but can't think of them right now.

 

 

^^ everytime I think about that I rolf myself. I was very young at the time and wearing a mini skirt. If I put that skirt on now my entire backside would be hanging out. Another stupid thing I've done and come to think of it I've done it twice. When I drove a silver mustang I went into the grocery store and came out and wondered why the electronic thingy wasn't unlocking the door, then I realized the door was unlocked. I hopped in and discovered very quickly that my key didn't work the ignition. Someone else's car!!!! Yikes, I hopped out really fast and found my car parked a couple/rows down. Just as I got into my car, the very large and quite robust fella who owned the other car came out and got in his mustang. Wooooops . . . could have been ugly!!! I did that one other time when I had a thunderbird and it took me FOREVER to figure out why the key didn't fit. Sometimes I can be so stupid!!!

Oh, and just this week I broke my neck to get a batch of homemade cookies baked to put out a tin for the folks who pick up the garbage. I raced through the house and took out all the trash because I knew the next morning was trash pickup day. Throughout the day I hurried to get those cookies iced, put nice little candy canes and goodies in the tin and put them outside. When +1 came home he said, "is the trash guy coming a day early???" All day I'd thought it was Wednesday. It was Tuesday.

My Dad does that sort of thing all the time .... but he's 93.

 

Hey! You don't have to be old to loose track of what day it is. Now that I have been un-employed for 5 years I never know what day it is unless it is the day of a sporty car event.
