Dont know if this qualifies
yesterday morning I was in the shower, listening to some music, like I do...

then I slipped on some shampoo, and fell out of the tub, hitting the sliding wood bathroom door (not like a shower door, the door into the bathroom)
I broke one of the wheel slider things, luckily the wood of the door isnt really hurt (its a hardwood door) so all I have to do is fit a new wheel to it.

I played soccer when I was in high school. It was down to the end of the game we were tied and I was taking the penalty kick. I get to running and just before I get to the ball I trip and fall in front of good portion of the school and their parents They let me take the kick again and i scored, but damn was I embarassed.

i have a million of em...LOL...but this one comes to mind...

years ago, i was run over by a car while riding my motorcycle...apparently one of the points that i landed on when i left the bike to slide under the car was my knee, fracturing the knee cap & ripping the flesh & muscle clear across...i was in a straight leg cast for 6 weeks & when it was removed, the quad muscles had atrophied so i walked with a cane for a bit...i was at my friend's house one day & kinda flippin the cane around being silly & i whacked my kneecap dead on so hard that tears squirted from my eyes...you see the nerves to the skin were severed & never regenerated, so the area was numb on the surface but below the surface the dang thing still hurts...my friend looked at me & ran into the bathroom & slammed the door & i could hear him in there cracking up...he finally emerged when he realized that i was laughing hysterically too......

I was over at a friend's house dogsitting and using his laptop computer. I had not been familiar with using a laptop computer since 1989 B.I. (before internet). That laptop froze up and I am frantically trying to turn it off. I tried unplugging it see if it turn off but to no avail.

What was really frustrating is going through the various choices of voice mail from the HP support system, then to be placed on hold with a technical advisor and then transferred to another advisor who told me that I needed to push the off button and wait 10 seconds.

Talk about an airhead moment!

Whoever said "To err is human but to really screw things up, you need a computer" is right on the mark.

Once when I was a teen, I went over to my best friend's house. They had a sliding glass door and I went up the steps and was waving at everyone inside. It was night and I couldn't tell that the door was closed. Needless to say, I smacked right into it. Everyone in her family was looking at me and thought it was hilarious.
