    :o We all have these moments. Call them " Blonde ". " Senior ". Not to be confused with accidents. I'm talking about those transient times when eye, hand and brain fleetingly lose all contact.

    I eat stew. Every night. I make it in my slow cooker and ladle it onto my glass flan dish. On my tray. Bring it in here and nom nom nom. Every night. Ye'd think I'd have got the hang of it, by now ....?

    Other night, I came in here. Sat down and prepared to enjoy. Till, looking down at my lap I thought; " Hang on ..... Where's the fcuking Dish?!? "

    What have You managed, AH?

    I was on the phone to someone who was shadowing my citrix session, they asked "which file" and I said "that one" and I pointed to the file. With my finger.

    Once, when having breakfast I poured milk into a glass while simultaneously pouring orange juice into my cereal.

    It was not nice. :(

    That actually reminds me of the best blonde joke I've ever come across .....


    A blonde woman was speeding down the road in her little red sports car and was pulled over by a woman police officer who was also a blonde.

    The blonde cop asked to see the blonde driver's license. She dug through her purse and was getting progressively more agitated.

    "What does it look like?" she finally asked. The policewoman replied, "It's square and it has your picture on it." The driver finally found a square
    mirror, looked at it and handed it to the policewoman.

    "Here it is," she said. The blonde officer looked at the mirror, then handed it back saying, "Okay, you can go. I didn't realize you were a cop."

    :pac:

    Lots of times over the summer I put the dinner in the oven, lay out in the sun and came in an hour later starving to find I hadnt turned the oven on.....
    I am blonde though..... :O


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,043 ✭✭✭Wabbit Ears


    A citrix session is like BDSM but instead of rubber whips and chains and stuff you torture yourself with timeouts, laggy connections and sh1t applications that have to be run in citrix because there so cr@p they only run in this ancient virtualised environment.

    This morning I said to myself that i should put my laptop bag with both laptops on it by the door so I wouldn't forget them. Realised when I got to work I had forgotten them.


    i also had to edit this post because I forgot to actually write my response to the topic.

    I was making a cup of coffee and getting a bowl of cereal one morning. Ended up putting coffee and sugar into a bowl of milk.

    It was actually quite nice though :o

    If I park my car the opposite way to normal outside my house I'll invariably go to get in to the passenger side every time.

    Haha. I can relate to that. I regularly have to wipe my work monitor clean because I circle things on it with pen while showing things to other people.

    You'd be following that piece of carrot all around the friggin dish with your spoon!
    No thank you!!

    ... I can't think of a good story here. :(

    That time I put cornflakes in the vodka. It was no accident. According to Jah Wobble it was God telling me I needed feeding up.

    Absently chopping cherry tomatoes into my porridge instead of strawberries is something I've done on a couple of occasions.

    Was topping up the sugar bowl last week, but instead of picking up a bag of sugar from the press I took the bag of porridge oats beside it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    If I shower in the evening after coming home from sports, I've often thrown my dirty socks and jocks in the toilet, thinking it was the linen basket... in a proper slam dunk motion for added effect too!! Only seeing it leave my hand do I realise... Doh!!

    Thankfully, never mixed it up the other way around!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,129 ✭✭✭LenaClaire


    I failed badly at making a cup tea at work a few years ago :

    Me making tea:
    add tea bags to cup
    add hot water
    take un opened sachet of sugar
    throw sugar directly into cup WITHOUT opening packet
    stare at cup with sugar packet floating in it
    10 second processing delay
    realize what I have just done
    stick fingers into boiling hot water to get sugar out
    stick fingers in mouth to cool them off
    stare at cup
    say screw it
    scoop out sugar packet
    add milk
    drink tea anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,480 ✭✭✭Chancer3001


    Turned on the car.

    Sat there for a second, then tried to turn on the car again. Horrible scraping sound out of the ignition.

    Do not feel to bad OP, I was chatting to a lady today who IS convinced that Portugal is a province and part of Spain.

    took the match out, lit it and put it in front of my mouth 'this cigarette ain't lighting' but only because it wasn't there coz I hadn't taken it out.

    Said 'thanks Love' to Barman when he served me my pint the other night. Not the right thing to do.

    Have went to take the first mouthful of my first coffee of the morning and realised it's hot water and sugar. Worst part is I've done this more than once :(

    back when I was a smoker 25 years ago and driving home from work I lit my cigarette with a match(not easy when driving but it was a quite and straight country road) and then threw the cig instead of the match out the window,(how times change-I would not dream of throwing even a match out the window these days)

    The other day I forgot to turn on slow cooker, first time in EVER,

    No dinner for me,

    Seriously, make a massive pot of stew, tastes better every day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    I one accidentally pis*ed in the sink instead of the urinal in a public toilet, even though I was completely sober and alert. It was the middle of the afternoon in college and after a few seconds pis*ing I thought "this urinal is very high." Then it hit me.

    It was a horrible feeling, thinking I'd have to wait there till I finished, hoping nobody would come in.
    Panicking, I flexed to hold the stream in for a moment, then quickly crossed over to the urinal before the stream started again.

    I've no idea how it happened, but at least it's not as weird as eating stew every night.

    I did exactly the same thing! In school, Monday morning after a wild weekend, I went in to the jacks, turned left as usual, and in mid flow thought to myself, 'this pisspot seems a little higher than usual?'.

    In my hungover state, I'd accidentally gone into the ladies. It was an all male school, and I was in the staff ladies toilet. Full bladder too. I can't remember a pish ever taking so long...
