Stupid thing to do!

Running a finger around the rim of a tin after it had been opened, ouch!

Ring pull tins are lethal, as the edges are razor sharp, and I have a cut finger to prove it!

Anyone done anything stupid lately?

Not lately but I have done in the past. Once decided that the fish tin I was undoing with the key, was very untidy so proceeded to untangle and sliced all my fingers think I said that I was a very silly billy

On another occasion, I made a casserole in a metal dish with a lid, took it out of the oven with oven gloves then took them off to take the lid off, ouch

i have noticed that most of these tins with ringpulls snap off before they open the tin.

useless. best keep the can opener close by

I'm not very tall so I have to stand on things to reach the top cupboards. I went to use my computer chair with wheels to stand on and was told that it was dangerous to do so as the kitchen floor is stone and they would reach it after they'd been to the loo.

As soon as there back was turned I did it - ended up falling and hitting the side of my head hard whilst the chair skidded across the room. Had to lie there for a while as I felt dizzy and sick

near the sounds of the wimborne quarter jack!

My most recent was holding a sledge hammer in an awkward manner while trying to hit something awkward, ending up skinning my thumb two days before the RWB Party My only hospital visit because of an accident was when a beam from a concrete sectional garage I was building became dislodged due to the wind and it fell on my head! Thankfully, because I was walking under it, my movement lessened the impact. Still needed the wound to be "superglued" in hospital!

I had to go to hospital when I went through my glass kitchen door by pushing it closed with my hand in the middle of the glass. I cut my wrist and had several stitches, I was thinking of having a tattoo to cover the scar as it looks as if I've self harmed

Decided to use the hoover to empty the still warm ashes from the fire. Whole thing ignited on the livingroom floor. Lucky not to singe anything but height of stupidity!

A few weeks ago I decided to call my mum. My number are all stored in a phonebook saved on the phone.

I scrolled through the list, selected "K's mum and dad" and hit the dial button. At least, I thought I did.

Just as I heard the sound for the 'phone ringing at the other end, my mobile started to ring. My first thought was, "oh, that's typical, someone decides to call my mobile, just as I am ringing my mum."

Then I realised, I was calling my own mobile. I'd accidentally selected the phonebook entry 'K's mobile' which is directly before 'K's mum and dad' in the list.

Doh!

(well I *am* blonde...!)

Oh, and in mid April I did a real number on one of my big toes by dropping a big lump of the wall I was taking down on it.

Was I wearing safety boots? No, I was wearing canvas shoes.

Why was I wearing canvas shoes? Because I am impatient.

On deciding to take the wall down, and owning no safety boots, I went out to buy some. Most safety boots are bought by guys so stores tend to stock men's sizes. Nowhere had any that would fit me in stock. I went home and ordered some from the Internet but was too impatient to get one with the job so started it anyway.

The boots arrived the following day. The toe took three weeks to even begin looking normal, but I consider myself lucky it was just badly abraded and severely bruised, rather than totally mangled and broken.

Lesson learned.

I have thought of another one, a couple of years ago, I went up town with my kids clubbing for my birthday, came home and decided as I was cold (birthday is boxing day) that I should take a hot water bottle to bed with me, woke up in the morning with a 4inch by 2inch deep blister on my right leg, couldn't for the life of me work out how I got it until my friend at work told me there is a metal ring in the net of the water bottle have a small scar there now as I burst it and it got infected

the good lands, the bad lands, the any where you may want me lands

slugged back a whole tumbler of Lambs Navy rum whilst standing close by a red hot 'old fashioned' pot belly boiler, gagged and spat out the rum as I was choking, the heat caused the alcohol to combust, the flames sped back to my mouth and head and I was ingulfed in fire fo a brief moment...long enough to need hospitalisation though

O fuck you Pearl Necklace, why did you have to start this thread? Another time after a good night out around Exeter whilst at University returned to the halls of residence and started daring one another to leap out of the apartment block windows. Don't" dare! TT! all was going swimmingly until I decided that the fth floor window was only one more number after the fourth floor, spent the rest of the night and morning as a number in the queue of the accident department of Exeter royal infirmary with a broken ankle! whoops!
