Yeah, near me, they had to take down a giant Wonderbra advert from the side of the road because of the number of accidents it was causing

Hi guys, I just wanted to let you know that being dumb can have serious drawbacks. No, I did not take up smoking again. Imagine you are sitting at your desk, and you want to stand up. You would roll back, then maybe place your hand on the desk and stand up. No problem.... but I messed that up. I put my hand on my thigh, rolled forward and stood up. Stood up hard (if you can say so). I have no idea why I did that. My hand is swelling up and hurts like hell. Yes, I am dumb enough to type with that hand. Have you ever done something similarly embarassing? And if you did, will you share it with us? Ouch.

When I was a cheerleader in high school (feel free to laugh) a basketball player hit me, spun me around, and I fell in the bleachers. Since it was a playoff game it made the 10pm news.

I was walking down a slope, it was raining, it was a mud path with grass on the sides and I didn’t want to put my feet in the mud so I stepped on the grass …. *drrrrrrrr * ……. Next thing I know I’m sliding down the slope …… and this happened in front of a huge bunch of people …… does that count?!! ;p

Hmmm, things must have changed, cause I could swear that cheerleaders, basketball players, and bleachers used to be all intimately connected! :)

I had this old car, which was the Dodge version of the El Camino. I went to open the door, and pulled the car handle right off. I thought, "well ain't that a beatch." Went to the other side and also pulled that one off! (Thankfully I had a window open so I could open from the inside.) I apparently need to lay off the steroids.

Last night I wanted to get up from the couch. Simple, right? Not so much. Sitting on the right end of the couch, I moved to simultaneously place my hand on the armrest and spin on my feet to walk to the right. Well, I got cocky and lifted my right leg to take my step before my hand settled onto the armrest and my left leg was secure. So, my left foot (in socks) slips, my right hand then misses its grasp for the armrest and I was lunging forward to tackle the floor. Luckily, I didn't bang my chin on the end table.

Luckily, it wasn't me, but a co-worker of mine recently tried to jump over a chain railing with his hands in his pocket, in front of the whole department he nutted the ground with his nose. A lesson for us all. On a more stretched out timescale, a former co-worker of mine who had incessantly, for two years, moaned about not having a proper stand for his laptop and who had got by by using an appropriately sized cardboard box for the duration, eventually, after someone pointed it out, realised that in the box was the stand he had ordered all that time ago. It still brings a grin to my face now:-D tom -- modified at 11:41 Wednesday 23rd May, 2007

Well, my hands weren't in my pocket, but about 14 years ago I thought it was a great idea to try and jump over a chain that was stretched out about waist high between 2 poles. So I got up plenty of speed, took a leap, and my thigh slammed into the chain cutting my arc short and sending me head first into the sidewalk. I somehow managed to break my fall with my hands, but to this day my thigh muscle has a dent in it from this spark of genius. Needless to say, there was a good amount of beer involved.
