I'm the dummest person I know.

Funny stuff. I have a cast iron skillet. After I use it I always wash it and then put it on one of the stove burners for it to dry because thats what my mom always did. So, anyhoo, I did that one evening and went into the living room to watch TV. I got up after a while to get something and noticed the skillet was still over an open burner and by this time it was so hot it that it was white. Hmmm, I said to myself, Wonder if that is hot. I reached down and grabbed the handle. Yes, it was hot, very hot. Now, that is dum
 
ok. i had to revive this thread. please recall that i am the guy that not only called himself, but i answered myself.

i arrived at work this morning and opened up my email. i started a new email that i thought i was sending to someone else. as it turns out, i sent the email to my own email address. the message on the email "Hey, call me when you get a break in your meeting."

So, not only have i called myself and answered myself, I just sent an email to myself telling myself to call me.

this, unfortunately, is a true story.
 
A couple of years ago I was on the phone with tech support with a desktop computer issue.....the thing just wouldn't work........until I relaized I hadn't turned on the monitor.
 
Alright, I'll play. Few months ago I'm at a hotel with some coworkers, and one of them accidentally left his cell phone in the car. I had the keys and was going out, and he told me to call him and let him know when I'm headed down so he could meet me in the lobby and I could get his phone for him.

So when I'm ready to go, I call him. Yes. On his cell phone. The one sitting in my car. And wondered why he didn't pick up. And to make matters worse, I left him a message telling him to meet me in the lobby.
 
smwhorn,

You're calling yourself, you're e-mailing yourself ... you must really be in love with you.

Which reminds me of this little poem:

You love yourself, you think you're grand,
You go to the movies, you hold your hand.
You put your arm around your waist,
And when you get fresh, you slap your face!
 
When I was younger my car wouldn't start sometimes when it was hot outside. I was in a hurry and had to grab something from my dorm so I left my keys in the ignition so I wouldn't have to worry about my car not starting. I then locked my car so no one would steal it. Made it hard to get in my dorm and my car without my keys.
 
I thought I lost my car keys on a job site on a day I had to pull a double. I look all over this for an hour and no luck. So I go back to the office to see if they are in the car, nope. So I go back to the site and look all over again. I give up and return to the office to find them in the passenger side door.
 
Back when I was still in school and living in the dorms, I came home from class one afternoon and decided to take a nap before I had to study for a test the next day.

Later, my roommate comes in the room, and when he does, I wake up. I immediately look at him and say, "What time is it?"

He says, "It's like, 9:30."

I get this terrified look on my face, and say, "HOLY ****! I had a test at 9! HOLY ****, I'm late!"

I start running around the room looking for my backpack and shoes, and freaking out the whole time. My roommate just kept looking at me.

I made it all the way downstairs and out the front door of the dorm, before I realized it was dark outside. It even took me a minute to register WHY it was dark outside, when the sun should be out at 9:30 a.m.

I walked back up to my room to find my roommate telling a couple of the guys on the floor about what happened, and when they saw me, they just busted out laughing.

My roommate just said, "I was wondering how long it would take you to figure out your test is TOMORROW morning..."
 
"caught a ride up to Tecoman to buy a slim jim to unlock it."

Did you ever think about keeping a spare slim jim in the trunk for such occasions?
 
the year was 1968. I was living in a boarding house on Whitis and dating this most beautiful brunette that lived in SRD (irrelevant fact but I love saying it). On weeknights that we didn't go out, I would call her religiously at 7:30.

So this one night I call her at 7:30 and her line's busy. (For you youngsters that's what would happen before we had answering machines/messages.

) I return to studying and go back and call her 15 minutes later and the line's still busy.

Go back 15 minutes later, then 10 minutes later and 10 minutes later and I am becoming furious. SHE KNOWS I AM CALLING HER YET SHE"S TALKING TO SOMEONE ELSE.

Finally, I just call continuously, my jealousy swelling by the second. You've probably figured it out by now...I was dialing my own f'ing number. Oh my God. I almost had a heart attack - and I was the stupid one. Then I had to apologize to her for not calling her on time!

Hook'em!!!

I think I can top that. One time a good friend (who is now deceased, RIP) asked for my number. Well, as I rattle off my number he said "uh no, that's actually my phone number man."
