We all have them. Some of us more than others. I feel like I get put on blast for them more than I should. So what better than a qt, judge free zone for us to swap stories and compare notes on some of our not-so-proud moments? Like the other day, when I got DSS and DSL confused... Anywho, today my friend and I were killing time in this department store and I stopped when I saw all of these ceramic lawn decorations. Me: "Why is the frog yellow?" My friend: ... *walks away* The frog was red, lol. It's really not that I'm dumb, it's just that I have more important things to do than think. I get called out for something new everyday, so this will probably be my own personal journal tbh. P.S. For the record, my GPA was a 4.0.

Last year I finally realised that the Moon scenes from Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers weren't actually filmed on the Moon... that's probably my biggest blonde moment so far tbh.

Finding out that the better half of Power Rangers was just chopped up Japanese footage was worse than finding out Santa Clause wasn't real, tbh.

I have them all of the time. It typically takes people a few months to realize I'm not a complete moron.
I have a really bad habit of wearing clothes inside out or backwards without realizing it. I also tend to say whatever comes to mind. If I'm thinking about something it'll slip out. It wouldn't be so bad, except usually when people talk to me I'm not paying any attention and am thinking of something completely different and usually inappropriate.

Obviously I had one when recording the video for the other thread. The whole sideways thing didn't click until well after.

In primary school one year my teacher asked me to go and ask our PE teacher for a “long weight.” “A long wait? OK, I’ll go sort that out for you. Just you stand there.” As he said that with a smirk on his face I didn’t think much of it. After 5 minutes passed and I was still standing there I really should have realised something was up. Eventually I got tired waiting and went back to my class where everyone was waiting and laughing. “April fools!” they all shouted as I walked back in. I tried to play it off like I knew what was up all along and I was just playing along. I didn’t. In fact, I don’t think I was even aware that it was April 1.

I don't have a filter in my head and the words just come out as I conceive them. I also have this really bad habit of fucking up traffic lights. Stopping on green, going on red, etc., lol.

I was staying in a hotel for a week last Summer, and I still hadn't figured out how to get to our room by the last night. I think I might've figured it out had I realised that there were three floors (for whatever reason I was convinced there were only two :S).
I only figured out a few months back that Will.I.Am = William.
Maths Teacher: "OK, so does anyone not understand how to do _______?" ---Nobody says so--- Maths Teacher: "Right, so Tiarnán, do this one for me." ---Silence--- Maths Teacher: "Tiarnán?" Me: "Huh? Oh..." ---More silence--- Me: "Um, what am I supposed to be doing?" Maths Teacher: "...This question." Me: "Oh." ---A little more silence--- Maths Teacher: "...Tiarnán?" Me: "Yeah, I don't understand."
---Maths teacher stares at me like I'm a total idiot---
Honestly, there are way worse ones - I've got the common sense of a tree trunk - but I can't think of any right now. And needless to say, I dropped maths at the first given opportunity.

Sometimes people can be telling me a serious story and for whatever reason I’ll think they’re joking and laugh at an inappropriate moment.
I regularly panic and think I’ve lost my phone and/or keys when they are in fact in my pocket and have been all day.
On a school trip to London I locked myself out of my room 3 times. We were only there 5 days. We had a midnight curfew but of course we sneaked out after the teachers came round and checked we were all in our rooms last thing at night. If even one of us had remembered our room key we would have been fine. Unfortunately we didn’t and we had to return at 3am, tail tucked between our legs asking the hotel concierge guy for the spare key so we could get back into our room. He of course ratted us all out to our teachers the next morning when he didn't even have to.

Also, I'm proud of Velvet for standing her ground and responding to his sexist ass. Like a modern day Gloria Estefan. A role model to women everywhere imo! *Steinem.

I just put some strawberry pop-tarts in foil paper in the microwave and it made a weird zapping sound and tiny blue lightning things went everywhere. I just thought it was metal you couldn't put in the microwave. Not all shiny things.

Pop-tarts make me think of this: Go and watch it again Jay, you know you want to.
