How can I be so stupid?

Oh my God, if I don’t share what stupid thing I did, then I will bloody well go cut myself in frustration! I am cooking supper for hubby, and there is a time limit, so what do I go and do? Mess it up. I cooked the potatoes in the microwave for 12 whole minutes and wondered why they were so hard when I took them out. Shock horror - I discovered I did it all on the defrost setting! I forgot to set it back to high before putting the potatoes in. Oh Saadiqah, go jump in the bloody lake!

Who else here did some pretty stupid things recently?

Not recently, but i did many stupid things when i was put on med.

I’ve done a lot of things I cringe about. I break everything I touch.

@Hadeda, you have a lot to do and you just didn’t do it right, no reason to be upset or certainly not right to call yourself stupid. You have to “go easy” on yourself I think?

Last month I was doing some house cleaning. Managed to put my clean undies in the microwave, following which my wife discovered that I had tucked a 3/4 full cup of tea into my underwear drawer. I am still hearing about that one.

In my defense, it was the day after a wedding shoot so I was more than a bit fr00zl3d.

I regularly misuse my microwave and this morning I poured the milk into the actual coffee pot with the still brewing coffee instead of into the cup.

I still drank it. Obviously I needed it!

I went to the grocery store the other day to buy coffee. Came back without the one thing I went there to get.

My finger from one arm touched my other arm and it frightened me. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey - dont’ be so hard on yourself. We all do things like that.

I’ve done what you’ve done before.

I also know a woman who (after having a baby and very sleep deprived) put her wet shirt into the microwave to dry it out. It started smoking and burning :smile:

A month ago my wife put a pecan-caramel roll in the microwave. The instructions were to set it for 45 seconds. She set it for 4 minutes and 50 seconds. Our microwave still is stained and smells of caramel. I’ll bet my wife, who is “normal” does these things more than you do. Don’t even think about it.
