You ever done something really stupid?
Out in my fur shed cleanibg traps. Found a #1-1/2 long spring I thought might have a defective dog or latch. So, I set said trap. Rather than reaching down for a stick or something, I use my finger. From the top.
Even as I was doing it, my brain kept saying "don't do it don't do it". My finger didn't listen. I did it
No witnesses. If there were, I might be nominated for a Darwin Award.
No wonder my wife wonders about me.
I wonder. Does Darth Vader have a sister named Ella? Bet she has her ups and downs.

Yep you win! :bonk:

My old boss had many nice RC planes.
He got two awards.
One day he was bring one plane around low to land it and drilled it right into the drivers door of his brand new Ford truck leaving a nice dent! :bonk:
Second award came when he went to adjust a carb on one and went from the front of the prop instead of the side. They couldnt put his finger back on! 😢😆
Yes alcohol was involved!  :drinking:
Cooking over a open fire is all fun and games until someone losses a wiener!

There was no alcohol involved before the stupid act. I do recall enjoying several bottles of Grain Belt Premium later in the day.

Anything that is free is worth saving up for.
