I like to have a few cookies with my coffee in the morning. Not a lot – just a small handfull. Now, we don’t usually have enough bowls in the house to last the day, but we have plenty of mugs. So, instead of using a bowl, I grab a coffee mug to hold my cookies. I sit down in my home office with two mugs – one full of coffee and one with a few cookies in it. Anyone with any degree of common sense will note that this is a terrible idea.
I’ve reached into the wrong mug on more than one occasion, dipping my fingers into the bottom of a long-cold cup of coffee. Other times I would lift the cup to drink and get hit in the lip with a cookie. These were my warnings, which I did not heed.
It was only a matter of time before I stuck my hand into hot coffee, thus burning my fingers, causing a mess, and making myself look like an idiot. Thankfully, nobody was around when I pullled this stunt, but my face turned red anyway.
There are some things which are embarrasing even when nobody is looking.
Why I Hated Resident Evil 4
Ever wonder how seemingly sane people can hate popular games? It can happen!
Batman: Arkham Origins
A breakdown of how this game faltered when the franchise was given to a different studio.
How to Forum
Dear people of the internet: Please stop doing these horrible idiotic things when you talk to each other.
Was it a Hack?
A big chunk of the internet went down in October of 2016. What happened? Was it a hack?
Fable II
The plot of this game isn't just dumb, it's actively hostile to the player. This game hates you and thinks you are stupid.
And then you can post them on the internet, so the whole “nobody is looking” is completely nullified!
Thank goodness I’ve never actually taken a drink from my cup-of-paintbrush-water. Come close, though.
I have. My teeth were funny colors.
How about the “try to take a drink from an unopened can of soda.”
Or “try to take a drink from the cup with a paintbrush in it, thereby sticking said paintbrush up one’s nose.”
Been there, done that…
Try growing up in a house with an older brother that chewed tobacco and spit it into coke cans.. then left the half-empty cans around the house… pair that with a Dad that drank lots of coke and left half-full cans around the house.. take those two facts and put in a kid that was lazy and thirsty.. often that meant a warm drink of coke. I was always careful to check.. but once my sister started to chew (yes.. a future Brown University grad).. well.. the odds were not in my favor.. and the odds did what odds do..
… Now I’m pretty careful about soda cans.
Hah. What about this?
Middle school. lunch. Students have to wear uniforms- khakis or navy blue bottoms, blue, white, or yellow shirts. Wearing a white shirt while drinking chocolate milk. Student always shakes milk before opening. Forgets it’s already open. Spills all over thin white shirt, which quickly turns see-through. Student with rather big chest for an eigth-grader.
