This is from several weeks back for me::

Don't assume that your storm door cannot lock itself, if caught by a strong gust of wind,
when slammed shut.

The wind chill was around -15F and it was my only way in.

btw: also, broke off my door knob trying to twist it!!

You can't fix stupid. You just have to step back. Grab some popcorn. Watch it happen (making sure nobody gets injured). And be there to help pick up the pieces.

Flour + water = glue. Mix in some sugar and you've got cookies. Where'd the glue go? Eat enough of them and you'll learn the hard way that the glue is still present.

This guy learned the hard way not to rush the stage and tackle Dave Chappelle.

To wit, his elbow is pointing the wrong way. 😩

Looks like someone thought he was Will Smith.
Hope he has Will Smith levels of money for that attorney he's going to need.

Yeah, that's what Chris Rock said right after it happened, while still on stage.

As a kid I was told to learn from my mistakes. To which I responded I rather learn by other people's mistakes. Lol I still screw up

 

[Chauncey Gardiner]

It's good to learn from your mistakes, but it's cheaper and/or hurts less to learn from the mistakes of others.

 

[PhotonWrangler]

If I could learn from my mistakes, I would be the smartest person in the world by now.

 

[Burgess]

Never buy a cheap tripod. You'll just be frustrated by it, and then will spend more money in total by buying a quality one down the road.

Either his elbow got the twisty or his head is now looking at his a$$

When trying to open a difficult skin-pack item with a knife, place the item on a stable, solid surface before working with it.

Scissors.

 

[Monocrom]

I won't even EDC a multi-tool in a city setting unless it has scissors.
