Tried to get a box of Gold Fish (The Snacks) back from this kid that stole them from me, but, do I really want them back, who knows what he did to them.
Accually, no, that wasn't too much of a problem, on one of my flight lessons my flight instructor told me to turn right, and I wasn't paying any attention and I turned left, dosn't sound to stupid, but yoou don't want your flight instructor thinking that your stupid.
In the Sim: Is was on VATSIM and I was trying to call ground control, I kept calling and calling, then I discovered that my mike wasn't plugged in.
I'm not a bad pilot, I just like experimenting a little.

I'm sorry to say, that one time me and my friend got high and neither of us could see, so we had a contest to see who could walk the farthest without hitting something. So I banged into a pole and ended up with a bloody nose, but it was incredibly funny all the while.
Kids, NEVER do what FEM did. |

Do you mean on Sim or in real life?
In sim:
I did a touch and go in a 737 and when I was taking off, I forgot to retract spoilers so I stalled and couldn't figure out why.
In real life:
When I was in second grade, me and my friend decided to do an experiement with our science books.  We wanted to see if they would float or sink. They floated for a few seconds but then they sunk. We were suprised when we couldn't read or turn the pages. |

Ha, wow, this off-topic forum just keeps getting further and further off topic!
In the sims: I think the most recent was during a Cheers to Friday event with ATAvirtual one night (on VATSIM), cruising at about FL380, everyone else around FL360 or FL340 and fairly well sequenced on departure. I looked at my TCAS display and saw a plane about 10 miles out at my 4 ocklock, then 3 ocklock, then 2 ocklock, and still passing me! I thought no way, how could the ATA guys have caught up? I'm cruising at .82 mach!! So I did an external view to get a good look at the plane passing me when lo and behold my gear was down!!! Lord only knows how long that was down for! I went back into the cockpit and notice my speed was practically at the stall point! I certainly felt pretty dumb right there.
In life:  There's a time and place for everything, and that's college |

When I was about 7, I was playing a junior version of basketball called 'Miniball', when a teamate passed the ball to me and I headed for the goal to shoot. Approaching the goal I wondered why one one was coming after me, then I realised that is was at the opposition teams goal  .
I scored the goal though!!

THE DUMBEST THING IVE EVER DONE.....
I would say it would be jumping off my roof into my pool...... I missed by 3 ft. and i broke a leg an arm and got a pretty good concusion. I did this when i was 10 im now 13.
my grandfather was cutting carrots with a butcher knife...(i dont know why though) but anyway he dropped the knife and cut off 2 toes and a half the half was never found. this is a true story. |
