I once posted an add in the paper saying that I was willing to babysit in my own home, someone contacted me saying that they babysit, I said that is nice I'm not looking for a babysitter.
Another time, I went to put a disc in my computer and I tried shoving it into my floppy drive.
Once we went to the grocery store and my husband thought he left the money at home, so he tells me to wait there and proceeds to head home only to realize it was in his pocket.
My daughter was once asked on a test name a non profit organization and she said Tim Hortons. lol
We were cashing out once at a checkout and the item was 3 for a dollar, but my son only wanted one. The cashier turned to the other cashier and said how much would just one be.
What are some dumb things you see or hear people doing or saying or maybe you have done yourself?

Thats a good one. I did the same almost. My wife myself and her friend got drunk walking there and home. the friend called the cops cuz her car was stolen from the bar. We all thought we'd driven there. The cop pointed to her car, "Is this your car ma'am?" Too funny.

I have seen this happen always - you meet and acquaintance or a friend at the movie theater and they ask "How come you are here?" If im in a theater im obviously there to watch a movie:)
I had this school teacher who wanted to punish 3 students. he tells them "All 3 of u go and stand in the 4 corners of this room"I think ill share only these 2 for now or the list would get endlessly long.

One night in the middle of winter, I was on my way out the door to go to work. I was talking to my boss on the phone, and once I shut the door I said, "I can't come to work. I've just locked myself out of the house and have no keys or busfare." He said, "You're kidding right?" I said, "No I'm not kidding. I can't do anything. No one's home."
I wound up dozing off on the front porch in sub zero temperatures until my fiance came home early from work to let me in. Needless to say I missed a night of work as a result.

I was driving around town one day, running errands and my car began getting hot...I had no idea what to do...so I called my father in law to add water to the radiator...
When I was 16, I had a flat tire and called my mother, she came and changed the tire, all the while telling me that this was the last time she would be doing this so I needed to watch and learn....I am 46 now and have yet to ever change a tire though...LOL
I parked in a parking lot at the local grocery store that had some of those short yellow metal poles in front of each parking space....when I got back to my car...I pulled forward causing a nice little crease in the front bumper of my car....LOL
These are a few of the dumber things I have done....LMAO

A couple of weekends ago, I got out of my car at a restaurant, walked in, and noticed we were under an air conditioning vent. After a few minutes, I said to my husband, "I think I'll go out to the car and get my jacket." I still had a jacket or two in the car from when the weather was cold, so that was going to work out great. Well, I get out to the car and I realize my keys weren't in my pocket. I then realized the car was running, which is when I realized the keys were in the ignition and the car doors were locked.
We were on our way home from a day trip and my husband and I were both tired. We were even more tired after finally finding a locksmith that would help us at 9:00 p.m. on a Sunday night. Talk about feeling dumb and being $25 poorer after the whole ordeal.
