[Audasiti]

Personally i left a few ports open to seed a friends download, And in a week got a notice in the mail because he was using my bandwidth to download World Of Warcraft... (torrent) Tisk Tisk -.-

I once selected white text on a white background.

I have two BIG ones: I volunteered for service in the U.S. Army in 1970, during Vietnam (NOT a good idea), and I got married after I got home. I survived Vietnam and have been divorced long since, but the marriage may have come the closest to killing me in the end. I do have two beautiful, exceptional grown daughters though, and make no complaint about that.

After over half a century on this Earth, I discovered that I really, really like repairing PCs, and I continue to enjoy that enormously. So all told, it's all been survivable to this point.

PC wise (pun intended); interuped a bios update, bought an iomega zip drive, one time subscribed to clearwire.

I put my laptop in a case didn't close the case and it fell out and the screen was destroyed. I was so mad. If you mean non PC wise once I locked my self outside my house with out my keys. I had to wait for somebody to come let me back in for a few hours.

I also stupidly volunteered into the US Army during the current Afghanistan/Iraq war a few years ago. Just glad I didn't get sent over.

while resizing a partition (copying data phase), I moved my PC <thud> (click)... no more data.
I know better, was trying to hurry. Yup, I lost everything on that entire 500GB Drive. And yes, I tried data recovery
software.

During testing of an automated unattended Windows 7 install at work from USB, got sidetracked with a conversation with a coworker and forgot to swap to my temporary hard drive. As luck would have it, after about 10 previous attempts, this attempt was 100% correct and formatted the drive and installed the OS. Unfortunately, it was on my actual work hard drive and I lost everything on the machine.

During sending a text to my (at the time new boyfriend called Dave) in the phone menu Dad was just below Dave and it was just a little naughty ... but I sent it to my Dad ... Dad was not happy !

Ouch.

Never done anything stupid with a pc, besides getting Windows ME.

Other than that, got into a small brawl outside of a bar when I was younger.

Also, when I was about 17, I had a Camaro, with power locks. A buddy of mine was parked next to me with his car running( somewhat built up and noisy Trans-Am). I didn't realize it at the time, but I hit my door locks and shut my door. We got in his car and left to cruise a bit. We came back to my car and when I got out of his car, I realized mine was still running, with the keys in the ignition, and the doors locked. It sat there running for roughly 2 hours.

Only other thing was when I tore all the ligaments/tendons in my ankle......dumb dumb dumb...but that's a whole other story.

 

[richyrichuk]

managed to electrocuted myself on a very expensive subsea server as there was 2 of them i pointed and asked "is it on?" and my colleague went "no" (he ment the other next to it) 10 seconds later 240v down my arms screwdriver (un-insulated) flew out my hands across the room and i couldn't move my arms for 30 mins

 

[alfred01]

Well, now it wouldn't be too smart to tell you the dumbest things I've done, because, it's just not smart to put some things in writing. I did, however, once lose my temper and punch my screen. Bought a new laptop next day.

Married z3r010

When I was about 18 I went round a bend too fast in my car, the back end kicked out and as I tried to steer the car I over compensated and ended up doing a Starsky and Hutch type jump over the edge of a hill! Me and the car ended up in a ditch at about a 45 degree angle.

The people who were travelling along the same road I was got out to make sure that I actually got out of the car!

I was very very lucky that day as there wasn't a scratch on either me or the car!

I can't make up my mind what the dumbest thing I've done is.....there's been so many dumb things I've done over the years...... (nothing lately though)

In a similar vein;

My girlfriend is a little touchy about her weight, she's actually skinny as hell, but she's very self conscious.

Anyway, one day she had a craving for Mcdonald's, so I completely innocently turn round and say "Come on then fattie, lets go get you a Mcdonalds"

Didn't live that one down for quite a while :roflmao:
