the dumbest thing(s) you've EVER done

I have done many things in my little life time that may be considered ‘stupid’, ‘immature’, or ‘dumb’, but the thing to end all this is the time that I realized the truth about teenage boys. I was thirteen and I was hanging out at my friend Andrew’s [ the boy that I once wrote about in ‘Rant and Rave’] house when he had a friend, Corey, visiting. His sisters, who I usually hung out with, were busy playing The Sims with my sister so I decided to go on a walk with these two fourteen year old boys. When ended up at a filthy river by the edge of my filthy little town. There’s a bridge with graffiti covering it. Corey, Andrew, and I went around reading what others had wrote.

Quickly growing bored, Corey suggested that we play truth or dare…which turned out to be even MORE boring because these chicken boys kept choosing truth. When I chose dare, they’d DARE me to tell them if I “liked” either one. I said “no”. Finally, one of them ask me as a joke if I would swim in the filthy water. I told them that I would if they were being serious. Well, then they became serious. I removed my outer layer of clothing and dived in off the side of the hill by the grass. Being a fearless Southerner, there was NO way that I could have chickened out. Well, I’m not sure that those boys ever saw a girl LIKE THAT before. So, I’m sure that you can imaging how VERY stupid I was. I’m lucky and glad that they didn’t take advantage of the situation. They are strong and I was 118lbs. I can imagine what would have happened if those dumb ass boys didn’t have a knowledge of ‘wrong’ and ‘right’.

I am SO naïve…



 
Okay well I have an embarassing story that was just DUMB! LOL! It happened at our law firm.

Anyway it was probably about two weeks ago. I needed to print an address on a mailing envelope. I thought I could print a Tyvek envelope (one of the strongest envelopes around. They don't tear and you cannot rip them. We use these for tax - returns).

So I place the envelope in the printer and hit "print." I'm thinking its all good when suddenly the printer makes this obnoxious sound like flapping or something. LOL! And then it sounded like the printer was farting.

I was laughing not realizing the envelope MELTED inside the printer. :stupid: :D The printer stopped suddenly and the raw odor of burnt paper lingered in the air. LMAO! A horrible smell too, almost a chemical.

I'm trying to pull out the paper quickly, realizing I melted it. I was able to pull out a small piece of the envelope. LOL! And that shit burned, I had to drop it on the floor.

Anyway, around this time one of our Litigation Paralegals, Maria comes over. She goes "girl, what did you do to MY baby?" I'm like "that piece of ghetto shit ate my envelope." I show her and she just laughs and says "girl, you CAN'T put the Tyvek envelopes in the printer!"

LMAO!! So for the WHOLE week it smelled horrible, like a nasty chemical smell. Everyone knew what happened and of course they were teasing me. It lasted until our lawfirm had the printer guy come and clean that shit out. The rest of the burnt envelope he got out but it was in shreds LOL.

It was dumb but funny. :vamp: :whistle: :p
 
Stupidest thing I've done?

Let's see I've...

-taken a pot of boiling water to bed when I was sick so I could breathe easier. Yeah, the bed moved, the pot spilled over and burned my arm....on my 19th birthday, no less!!

-ruined a good friendship because I was acting like a complete jerk to a boy I liked.

-sabataged myself.

-doubted the ones I love.

-done things, on purpose, that I knew were wrong.

-put a glass pot on the stove causing it to explode. And then screaming for my dad into the phone...despite the fact that he was outside...shoveling snow...

-deleted the windows drive that would reinstall windows, just because I couldn't figure out how to work it [[rolls eyes]].
