I got a job in retail.

While working in the deli/bakery I sold a fake Styrofoam cake to someone.

Nobody ever TOLD me those ones were display only! I even called a manager to double check it and he didn't know either!

Every time someone moves something with out me knowing i cant find it...even if they moved it into the bowl right next to the spot. (this has happened 34 times)

I was once carrying computers up some stares. triped! and instead of slamming the computers onto the big landing step-thing-thingys and it taking no to minor damage (you know the ones where you have to turn around to the next flight) i turned and let me adsorb the blow...then slid down the stairs and almost broke my legs. then had to continue carrying the computers to the top of the stairs before i could go to get first aid.

Pretty much anytime I do anything I am guaranteed to at some point injure myself. Lately its been centered mostly around Weapons Kata and more specifically my Nunchaku. I've actually essentially punched myself in the eye with them while doing a block that required me to have one hand on each section. That's right I wasn't failing them around just holding them and moving my hands and I still managed to smack myself. (I have since repeated that feat on one other occasion.) This was a couple of weeks after I had given myself a full speed whack to the back of the head. It didn't knock me out but it put me on the floor and messed up the part of my skull directly behind my ear. Then in the past week I've managed to hit myself in the face twice. Once in the mouth and then two days later I missed a catch and got myself all the way from the left eye to my nose.

Other than that there was that time I missed a kick on this heavy bag mounted on a giant spring because I was getting tired. I didn't realize it was hurt bad so I finished the last 10 seconds of that round on the bag and hobbled away. Then I looked down when it really started to hurt and noticed I had pretty much ripped the entire top of my little toe off. At which point I decided I better go get a band aid. After about 20 minutes of bleeding and a drop in blood pressure almost enough to make me pass out it was decided I should probably go to the ER.

Sithdarth is a genius that puts Skynet to shame, as far as I know. He studies martial arts. Am I the only one concerned for the future of mankind, because this clumsy robot-man might just lead the robot revolution to victory?

Maybe I should cyborg myself up to avoid his wrath?

GARUD · 06-13-2009, 02:01 AM

Nah, it's ok. I've got a Robot version of Stallone who is going to assasinate him in a bit. Just be patient.

Dumbest thing I've done is back in Blue version of Pokemon. Not only did I use my Masterball on a level 3 Pikachu, but I then proceeded to figght Mewtwo and KO him, and then save my game! Luckily for me, MissingNo messed up my brother's game, so I kept his Mewtwo (who was unused) and he just caught another one.

Also, one time, my brother went to the beach, and swam with his phone in his pocket. A $250 phone of great quality, and really difficult for someone to find to buy. I had one too, and it's lasted me for 4 years (and still going strong). He had only had his for 2 weeks.

On numerous occasions, I forgot to take my keys with me, and I have to wait outside until 6pm when my parents get home. Thats about a 3 hour wait.

I once told my year 2 teacher on her farewell that my parents didn't like her. To be fair, she was a whore and a bitch, and she hit the kids. No-one liked her. After I said it, I had realised what I had done and hid in the toilet for 2 hours.

Well, I pulled my DS out of the rice, and put it together. The results?

Top screen still correctly displays everything. Bottom screen still displays everything and retains full touch sensor capabilities. Sound works. Game slot works, plays game properly. Charger works. Buttons work. Haven't tested the GBA slot yet. Haven't tested the Mic yet. No screen flicker. I'm decalring it 95% recovered. All I gotta do is get used to the ugly screen discolorations, if they don't fade over time.

In short, I was lucky, and I don't have to replace it right away to play games.

Congrats!

Just remembered one that my friend did that was funny. She locked her keys in her car, didn't have any spare keys with her. Had to call a locksmith, after about an hour he finally showed up, opened her car, left... and then we discovered she left her headlights on too and the battery was dead. The fortunate thing here is that since I am a complete moron about my headlights and my car battery is dead more often than alive, I carry jumper cables with me, so we just had to waste another half-hour riding a bus to retrieve my car and cables so I could jump hers so she could actually go home.

Of course, two weeks later, we went to a McDonald's way off campus... And guess what I did? Fortunately my headlights were off, but I also locked my cell phone and money in there, much to my annoyance, and the closest spare key I had was an hour away. Since I didn't want to spend the money on a locksmith, I ended up leaving my car in the McDonald's parking lot for three days until my roommate's mom had to come to help pack and brought my key, yay. And it didn't get towed or anything.

Whoops spoke too soon. Left it charge for a bit and now it won't power at all. Probably jumped the gun. Probably should have left it in the rice for a few more days. Back in there now on a last ditch effort, but I think I may have been a bit too hasty. Ah well.

Should I stick with the DS Lite, or get a DSi?

No, don't answer that. That's too off topic.

It slipped while I was pouring, but not from my hands. See, I was using my other hand to eat and the other to pour the milk. The phone was between my ear and shoulder.
