Up voted for letting them have their good deed

Upvoting for your wife's sense of humour. :D

My mom and I thought it would be cool to see what happened if we put a plastic trash bag through the new paper shredder. Cut to 2 hours later, we're still picking shredded plastic out of the teeth of the shredder with tweezers

Lol something similar happened just recently. So my grandma asked my dad and I to fix something and we needed to use super glue. Fast-forward five minutes and he's dropped some on his leg so I get kitchen roll to clean it and guess what happens... He's now got kitchen roll stuck to his leg. Then we were gonna put tape over the glued area but I put it on squint so I had to take it off and I put on the side of the table... There's now a piece of tape glued to my grandma's table and finally in the processing of getting it off I get glue on my hand... Needless to say we haven't been asked to fix anything else 😅

*snort laughs*

This kinda mistake isn’t even rare anymore. But at least you now know

ok this!!! i got some rly weird looks from laughing so darn loud!!

At least you didn’t ignore it and then a wheel actually fell off

Who hasn't done this???

This must've either been a while ago, or with keyless entry and ignition. I remember a girl at work locked her keys in her Ford Fiesta, and we were stood there trying to get it open with a coat hanger (how hard could it be?), and failing miserably. Bloke with another Fiesta comes over to see if he can help, tries his key, and whadda you know, only opens the ruddy door! I also remember someone else having to buy replacement keys for two cars after he placed the keyless entry/ignition fob on the roof of his car and drove off. The fob had the keys to his other car attached to it!

I blow on my ice cream, too! No idea why. The seat belt thing is a new one though, Lol!

For future reference, acetone!

Plot twist, it's always the same car. You have a doppelganger that follows five minutes behind you everywhere you go.

On a similar note my father, a radiation oncologist, fainted making a hole in my brother's finger nail after it was smashed to relieve the pressure. Horrified look on his face removing staples from my neck from a cervical fusion surgery I had. He was also an eagle scout who couldn't start a fire to save his life.

this is always hilarious to watch. Like, I might be a jerk, but I literally once recorded my friend looking for the glasses that were on her head. I could have told her- but that was the best 20 minutes of my life.

Good hint about Vaseline huh

I may have this trouble today. I have been loaned car which is identical to my other half's, just a different reg. There is something to be said for driving more unsual cars, as it would be pretty rare to park near a car identical to my car.

Well setting things on fire deliberately is rocket science!

Two degrees here. I click 'x' on the layers tab on photosh0p on a regular basis (bad eyesight - that x is tiny) and then have to Google how to get it back. Now when I start typing the request it auto-fills the rest!

I had a radio with a cassette tape that could record it! I would make my own radio show over the real radio shows.... I rewound it and learned I do not have a voice for radio...

Stupid, but it should not have given you an electric shock. If this was at work, then it should've have an electric saftey test conducted on it periodically.

This is a thread about silly mistakes Adam

To which they replied "They were great weren't they. Which albums have you got?"

LOL a friend of mine moved into a place with a gas fireplace. She turned it on thinking that it would just ignite...kept waiting for it..after a minute or so she thinks "oh...I probably have to light it!" and lights a match to it and BOOM!! Fireball. She was fine but did get a few burns and some hair singing.

Why would anyone put a power cord in their mouth in the first place even if it's unplugged?? Am I missing something here?

Yes!

I've done that before, my hand was so swollen it looked like a had a boxing glove on.

My garage door has a sensor thing that will not let it close if there's something in the way. I thought that was pretty standard... maybe it's a new or more recent feature?

Maybe he supervised Apple maps too?

ouch

Were you by any chance, listening to the ninth Beatles studio album?

Oh, I love zoom classes! They were the funniest!

I've also had this happen! Who knew superglue melts felt!? The only thing I had to evacuate was my bed room though..

I've done that one

I remember being a kid and my mum and dad hustling me downstairs to pack the car for our holiday. We reached where the car should be, but it wasn't there. I was crying, my mum was crying, general panic-stations kind of situation. My mum had just set off running back in the house to call the police when my dad slaps his forehead and goes 'I know where it is!'. He had driven into town the day before to grab some supplies for our trip, but caught the bus home. The car was still parked in town where he had left it. He has yet to live that down, four decades later. Bless him.

Yeah, I have no faith in your evaluation. I'll avoid.

Did all of it grow back?

Poor wounded desk. :(

I have glued my fingers together before making a miniature model.
