I am such an idiot. I just got one of those spray air fresheners (airwick) that automatically spray the freshener every few minutes (9, 18 or 30 minutes). It said specifically on the instructions NOT to point it at your face and that it has a delay of 15 seconds before it does it's first "test spray". I put the spray can in and I didn't think I had it in there right so what did I do, held it right up to my face. What did it do?!? It sprayed right in my face. Yes it burns your eyes and doesn't taste very good. :moron:
-
What flavour was it?
"Fresh Waters", it doesn't taste anything like what you would think it would.
-
To answer your original question, no.
-
nope, nothing that dumb. :uhsure: :-)
-
Ok. I'll fess-up. I took a blow torch to a piece of large paving gravel one time. I'm lucky to have a face at all.

I used to baby sit a friends daughter for 8 hours a day. Her airwik must have nailed me in the head at least twice a day. She's Asian and has a different idea of "out of the way" than me. (6'2)
still hate those things

I put it in our bathroom in the corner where our bathtub is. I don't know why I bought it. I always have to try gadgety things out only to find out that they don't work as well as I had hoped.

I do that. Bought one of those shower sprayers where you hit the button each time and never have to clean. Meh, you still have to clean the shower but it's much easier. LOL
Going back to stupid. I used Pledge extra shine on my apartments hard wood floors. I had to walk like a duck for a week when in socks.
-
Like a month ago, I was walking through a parking lot into someone's apartment. I had been just *slight* drinking. I tripped over the speed bump. I broke my flip flop and skinned my knee. I fell down hard. No one saw me, but then as soon as I got to the apartment I said "Did you see me fall down?!?!?"
LOL!

Yes but I have a guardian angel so I never really harmed myself too badly. I heard a long time ago that God looks after drunks and fools so since I'm not a drunk...

Then he should have looked after me during the "Airwick Incident" as obviously I too am a fool. :p

I can tell you God doesn't seem to look after fool cats. Monty burned off a bunch of hair the other day standing in front of a candle. It stunk.

I've done some really stupid things, but mine PALE in comparison...... :o

A long time ago I walked into the office from making rounds at the court house and sat in the rolley office chair and leaned waaaaaay back with my hands behind my head relaxing. Phone rings and I sit up and answer it and hear this wierd "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and all of a sudden my back is really... burny and my eyes are watering like crazy.
That was when I switched to a closed top holster for the police issue strength pepper spray/mace can. :(
-
OK so there was this girl I never should have brought home but how could I resist?
She was a fiery redheaded (styled like Jane Jetson) brown eyed girl in tight discout jeans who can the cutest cow t-shirt on.
Anyway BIG mistake. She had her way with me and tossed me aside. Come to think of it, not so dumb after all.

No air freshener accidents, but I tried to clean the little boys' toilet and the floor around it with bleach.
Bleach + ammonia from urine = very, very nasty fumes.
I knew that bleach plus ammonia was a bad combo, I just wasn't thinking of urine making ammonia. Very stupid. :thatsright:
-
Stupid? It's a miracle I survived childhood. Then adolescence. Then long enough to graduate high school. Then a four-year enlistment as a tanker. Then...
:rotf:
-
Have any of you done anything this stupid?
Attempting to imitate Gene Simmons around 1976 I almost poisoned myself because I used gasoline. Then, when I spat out the gasoline and it didn't light in the air like it was supposed to but instead lit when it landed on my arm.

I mixed about a cup of bleach with a cup of ammonia in the toliet; After getting a couple of whiffs of that, I called the National Center Poison control center to see if I needed to go to the hospital.

In High School chemistry we did this one experiment that produced this very deadly poison gas.
I don't remember what it was, but when combind with copper the gas was produced. So we're in the classrooms big hud thing that vented the air, and I was holding the tongs that had the pennies on it. The teacher yelled at me because I didn't have my goggles on, so while still holding onto the tongs, I turned around to grab them. Thereby bringing the penny smoking with extremely deadly glasses, right into the faces of the entire class. I had only had it there for a second by the time I realized what I was doing and shoved it back into the vent, but it was probably one of the dumbest things I've ever done.

That same year I saw a friend (both of us USAF stationed in So Dakota) doing flaming shots of Bacardi 151....he missed repeatedly and was so drunk he didnt realize how badly his face was burning. And the rest of us were so drunk we just stood around laughing at him. Took almost a year before the USAF got around to reconstructive surgery for him. I thought they waited that long so he would ponder his stupidity. But as for me doing something so stupid? I doubt I would admit it, lol.
As for BEG's original question...I have sprayed air fresheners with them pointing the wrong way straight into my face so i guess that counts. :thatsright:

A musician (such as myself) coupled with ethanol usually yields some pretty dumb shit. :whatever:
'Nuff said.

"Have any of you done anything this stupid?" ...nope can't say that I have.
But I have gotten as high as about 2 levels below stupid a few times..... :-)

Remind me to tell you about a trombone player named Bob Levitsky. His ambition in life after the Army was to become a slum lord in Boston. I shit you not.
He further distinguished himself by wrapping his trombone slide around another trombonist's slide when performing that goofy tune "Lassus Trombone" by Fillmore. He did that shit sober. I ain't gonna tell you what he did when he'd been imbibing.....
:cheersmate:

The short answer is YES/
No details though.
-
Here's your sign :-)
Yep. I've been there too. Where I used to work, there were those commerical air fresheners in the bathroom stalls on the wall above the toilet. I never really noticed them until the cover of one was hanging off for some reason. Like an idiot, I pulled on it and got a snoot full of cherry air freshener and ruined a blouse.

OMG...my guffaw was witnessed by eveyrone I worked with at the time and my then fiancee :thatsright:
I was sitting at work in a chair like asdf mentioned. I was bored, so I got to rocking in it, like office chairs tend to do and I was just kind of sitting there, staring off into space, and leaning back...next thing I know, I flipped over backwards...I mean, totally flipped and I was wearing a dress. I worked with all men too save for one other female. I got up and said, "now for my next trick" and went back to work. I gave everyone permission to laugh, since I knew they wanted to...really really bad. :thatsright:

I bought a can of deodorant (I usually use roll on) and after using it a few days was dissatisfied with it. It didn't really stop the wetness and was just too sticky. So I looked again at the label and saw that it was hairspray.
I did the same thing once with laundry detergent. I picked up a bottle when I was TDY in Georgia and after a while I noticed that my uniforms smelled good, they weren't getting too clean. I looked at the bottle again and saw that it was fabric softener.
Probably the dumbest one I've done, and there have been many, was the time I was using paint stripper on a piece of furniture in my garage. I opened the can and looked for something to pour it in and without thinking grabbed the nearest cup which was an empty foam coffee cup. Within two seconds the stripper melted it's way through the cup and was all over my newly painted garage floor. I can laugh now but I was really pissed at myself for that one!
