Modern Vespa

Along the lines of my previous post, "The Worst Thing You Ever Ate", I submit this knowing that Scotter, Mala Mujer, schipper, and brassduet will be laughing at me. Mine is not scooter related, just dumb male stuff.

One particular full moon night when I was in college, I happened to be at Sunset Cliffs (SD) overlooking the ocean. We thought it would be great to hike down to the water.

That particular night the grunion were "running". I thought it was cool because I've never seen a grunion before. The guys that were with me said that the grunion were edible. So we caught more than we could carry in our t-shirts. We hauled our catch back to the dorm and went out again.

This time hiking down, I miss judged the last step on the cliff. Needless to say, I fell 10ft off the cliff on to the wet sand on my hip. It felt like cement. Fortunately, I didn't break anything but I did hobble around and had to explain how it happened and what a grunion was for a few weeks.

BTW, the grunion tasted like s#!t when cooked. For those who don't know what grunion are: http://www.dfg.ca.gov/marine/grnindx3.asp

Dumbest thing I ever did: started an internet forum. "How hard could it be?" I asked myself.

Nothing near as dumb as this guy....

Getting a degree in art history -- so many job opportunities!

I've done so many stupid things in my life, it's hard to isolate 1 incident let alone the MOST stupid thing I've done.

ok, can I admit this - passed out on a street in Amsterdam after visiting a coffee shop, needless to say was robbed blind but it was 110% my fault/wasn't hurt or anything but felt like a dumb arse yankee explaining to the nice policeman that I was uh... I have since learned that you are only supposed to eat a few bites of the brownie and not the whole thing

TMI maybe, but wanted to share my stupid thing

Trusted Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to be my reliable method of keeping track of numbers, colors and sizes for the Modern Vespa t-shirts. Needless to say, I was BETRAYED...

I waited WAY too long before I got a scooter

i honestly don't even know where to begin.

I crushed a guys Larynx in self defense. I coulden't get his airway back open while he was struggling for air. He ended up dieing as a result of his injurys. I should have hit him somewhere else. He pulled a knife on me and cut me, I was kinda pissed. I would say so far it's been the stupidest thing I have ever done.

Front brakes in a gravelly corner.

3 times.

I had just changed my oil on my GT200L got brain drift and then started it without the fill plug reinstalled. HELLO digger

Are you a person, like me, who is constantly embarrassing themselves?

I trip on non-existent cracks in sidewalk, keep losing my keys, and can't find my sunglasses when they're on my head.

Although I don't think it's dumb, I prepare for the next zombie outbreak. That doesn't make me dumb or paranoid, just dumb for posting it.

lol, When was the last one?

I'll have to refer to my zombie survival guide for the last reported outbreak. 8)

'nuff said.

simple, childish thievery when i was in 9th grade (or was it 10th?)- i stole some CDs and N64 games right underneath a black dome camera. i thought to myself, "i bet they're not even looking". then i get caught and my parents had to pick me up from the police.

^that was pretty dumb, but only because i got caught. i've done worse

oh, there's plenty of that. then there's the really large-scale dumb stuff i used to get up to when i was younger, a lot of it involving automobiles moving at speed. thank f*ck i waited until i was older and more sensible to get a scooter.

one time in college i went to janes addiction concert with about 4 other people. we were all going to do 2 hits of acid, but everyone chickened out, so i ate all of them. i couldn't talk for like 2 days.

I proved last week that driving the Mount Evans road in a car does not cure clinical acrophobia (fear of heights).

You killed a guy? WHOA. I don't think anyone here can top that one.
