Thracian Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 up! Well something had to get your attention! Seriously what's the worst/daftest mistake you've ever made?. I once tried to nail a loose floorboard down on the landing. However the nail I used was a bit too big. In fact more than a bit too big. It went straight through the floorboard and through the copper piping underneath and the jet of water that hit me straight in the face nearly knocked me off my feet. Once I got over the initial shock I was aware that my improvised fountain was fast gushing everywhere. I dashed downstairs to find the stopcock only to remember we'd only a month or so earlier had a new kitchen fitted and it was more than awkward to get at the thing, once I even remembered where it was. By the time I'd cleared a cupboard and finally found the safety valve the water was flooding through the hallway plaster and liberally watering the houseplants below. My wife was out shopping and I wasn't altogether looking forward to her return but when the moment came she took one look at me in the my golfing waterproofs and yellow lifeboatman's hat, one look at the buckets in my hand, one look at the embarrassingly heavy shower that was soaking her from the remains of the ceiling above, and just burst out laughing. "I'd get you a cup of coffee," she said, "but with the ceiling gone, the carpet gone and the house converted to a boating lake, I don't suppose there's much chance of electric." It didn't seem funny when it happened but we've never laughed so much about anything both at the time and for weeks afterwards.

I once posted an ice pop wrapper in someones letterbox because there was no bins anywhere. Turns out though as i went to post it the owner of the house was coming up the drive. He saw me, I payed the price.
Daggers Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 Back in '84, posting the wrong bit of the pools coupon on the week when I got 23.5 points wasn't the best thing I've ever done.
Bert Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 I sent a text message slagging someone (a woman) off to a mate. Well that's what i thought, until i got the reply.
Phube Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 I once told a girl (~ 18-20) that after her injection her and her Dad can go away for 3 hours and come back for the scan then... Only for her to say "That's my boyfriend!"... I mean, he was at least 45, if he was a day!
LeeCovFox Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 Many, many, many. The first I remember was the day I wore my first pair of boxer shorts. I was 8 and they were light blue and Snoopy themed. I had PE that day. They felt like shorts to me. So much so in fact, that I forgot to put shorts on. Queue fits of lafter when I realised in the middle of the playing field my mistake. And chose to run all the way back to the class room so that everyone could see me, ensuring those who were not aware of my mistake, now were. Poor me. Pissing myself with fear after been caught by my teacher having been thrown out of hymn practice comes quite close though. Not sure if thats a cock up or just an embarrassment really. The old cow wouldn't let me home to change. I must have stunk for the rest of the day. Poor old Gurtej who sat next to me....
Foxhateram Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 mmmm a hard one........... ermmm, there are many i can think of, and assuming this is supposed to be a more happy and funny sort of cock up. i guess my worst cock up was leaving a girl in the cinema on her own. ok i shal explain................ Well we went for a date and she was one of those girls who just wouldnt shut up, she kept going on and on. After about half hour id had enough, and so had the chav behind me, you could see his chav eyes lighting up as an opertunity or excuse to kn ife someone was arising. I decided to leave after he made a snark remark about me having to watch my back, i tol;d her i was going to the loo, never to return................................. However this was not the end of it................. My guilt got to me after a bit of shopping (Magazine scanning) , and i decided to go back, she must have been betting on my return. As i walked down the street i spot her and many of her girlie mates looking rather mad, im spotted and of course i receive the third degree, several times, i not only get that but a severe smack in the balls, and several slaps in the face not a nice experiance. Now im here all alone, without a GF and nothing going right. Moral of the story dont give in to your guilt and never look back. Women sense guilt i tell you!! they've got some sprta of magical powers.

Nationwider Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 And don't think I've forgotten or forgiven! Mistaking you for an 18-20 year-old girl is an easy mistake to make, to be fair to Phúbe.
Geo V Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 Porking a mates ex-wife back about 12 years ago. He wasnt with her and she was just trying to get back at him and came to my work place for weeks being flirtatious and like the weak man that I was, I though "F**k this" and literally did. Lost a friend over it and whats even worse, I had leant him £500 to by a fridge for his home not 4 weeks earlier. Thats one expensive one off shag. All jokes aside, I shouldn't have done it as he was a good mate but the trouser snake at times thinks ahead of my brain.

I shagged a mates girl while she was with him and have felt guilty ever since. He never found out but in a way I'd rather he had so I'd have faced up to what I'd done. Instead I was a coward, carried on been mates with both and felt shite, rightly, because of it. Still. She was a bloody good shag....

LeeCovFox Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 Can i have her number PLAESE! Raj, from the posts I've read, I like you a lot. However, it has also come to my attention, that you are a dirty bastard.

Geo V Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 Raj, from the posts I've read, I like you a lot. However, it has also come to my attention, that you are a dirty bastard. Dont be fooled mate, Raj would romance her first with 5 years of courting.
LeeCovFox Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 FAIR COMMENT!I am also abit simple and abit of a twat too..... All the qualities I like in a person. What you doing for Valentine's?

LeeCovFox Posted 7 February 2008 Posted 7 February 2008 Dont be fooled mate, Raj would romance her first with 5 years of courting. There would be no point. Her substantial chebs will be tickling her toes by then. Work quickly!
