Dumb Mistakes
Post the dumb shit you’ve done by accident. There’s no shame here.
Mine:
[spoiler]I was getting hot in my dorm room (there isn’t any AC), so I cracked open a window to cool things down. Fast forward an hour or two and I realize that it’s gotten dark, and that the hundreds of white flies that cling to my window every night have now flown through the opening and collected into the best lit corner of my room.
Thankfully, my room also has a couple spiders living in it, and so most of the white flies had gotten tangled up and died off by morning. Still, now I have a ton of cobwebs that were previously invisible, and now have literally hundreds of dead white flies stuck to them like really, really shitty Christmas tree lights.[/spoiler]

I've done plenty of dumb thing by accident but this is my favorite to tell. I was working in a drive through window overnight and a customer gave me a fire cracker as a tip. Couple a month's had passed and I was wondering what I was gonna do with it since I still had it and haven't done anything yet. Since I wasnt sure how to ignite since it looked like one of those you pull on, I figured I lit to test it and I just put it out before it goes off. I did this in the house next to the kitchen. It starts to go down the wick and I thought it's time to put it out and I blow on it, it doesn't go out. Shit, if blowing isn't working I thought I put it out with my hand. Suffice to say it didn't work and I burnt my hand. Shit shit what do I do now. I grab it, throw it into a cup in the sink and pour water on it to extinguish it, it still going. Welp, I'm out of ideas. I run into living room, close my ears and watch the horror unfold. BOOM. Glass shards are flying into living room, kitchen is full of smoke and black ash is covered on the kitchen wall and ceiling. Fire alarm going of in the house and I'm standing here thinking -blam!-. Took me a couple hours to clean and came up with a convoluted lie to cover up the reason for the smell. Moral of the story, don't lite firecrackers in the house.
