Mother****er, I was actually serious that time.
Funny stories, or I hack something.
Probably your face. With a frozen fish.

One time, ages ago, my sister was on a road trip with her boyfriend Josh and his best friend Brad. Brad was feeling carsick so they stopped somewhere and he claimed he felt like he could throw up. Josh thought it would be funny to freak my sister out so he held her down while Brad was "going to throw up on her" supposedly. The thing is, he suddenly started to feel sick enough to gag. Josh was laughing thinking Brad was just kidding when he started to say "I'm actually goi--" and Brad proceeded to throw up after all, most of it landing on Josh's arms that were being used to hold down my sister, as well as my sister herself. Why Brad didn't just aim elsewhere, I'm unsure, I wasn't actually there.. I've only been told the story at family gatherings by my sister and her now husband, Josh. If she was able to forgive him for that, I imagine their marriage will last plenty long.

My wife recently auditioned for X-factor, she didn't get through but the story of the journey home was quite funny. We were on the train, just pulling into Lime Street Station. My wife was wearing a boob tube type top with a skirt attached to it, three quarter length white jeans and a cream, very short cardigan that came just below her breasts.
Anyway as we were pulling into Lime Street we stood up to disembark. My wife grabbed the cardiganto pull it down a bit lower as she was a bit cold, only she missed the cardigan and grabbed her boob tube top instead. Whoops, one tit exposed to the world, and in particular one cyclist who was stood right in front of her. Made his evening!!!!! :lol:

Hmm, i must watch x-factor in the future ;7

Okay so last year I was in eight grade, and I was hanging out with some friends before school.
This kid Brendan comes up to us all excited and everything, and says, "Hey guys, guess what I'm getting for my fifteenth birthday (at the time he was 13)! My very own PC!!!!!!!!" in a really stupid voice.
So I reply," So what? I've had one in my room with unlimited usage and DSL since I was like nine," And he got all pissed and sad and stuff. It was really funny.

See, now I'd say that's worse than my 'head on fire' thing.
I'm not a fan of crushing people's happiness.

Well, I could tell the time I was in German Class at around 15, and we had a guest teacher from Germany in. I spent all afternoon wondering why she kept looking daggers at me before I realised that my Hay-Fever had meant that whenever I knew the answer to a question, I was holding one hand up in the air whilst holding my finger under my nose.....

OK, ready to :lol: ?
I had this old Intel Pentium 33 (or was it 66?) MHz compy given to me. Big step up from my 8MHz 286. It had Windows '95 Plus! on it, 8MB RAM, and a 200 MB Hard Disk with DriveSpace 3 compression enabled. Oh, and the dude who gave it to me had messed it up somehow. Not knowing quite as much back then, I messed around with it a bit before deciding to re-format.
For some reason or another, I couldn't / didn't want to format it in my computer, I had to take the hard disk and put it in my Dad's computer first. (Probably to back-up something & restore it after the format, or to transfer the system files - I could have used a floppy, but, like I said, I was a newbie back then, just learning DOS commands & Windows Control Panel settings.)
Anyways, so I pop the hard disk into my dad's compy - I didn't bother asking him, as he seems to decline to endorse any plans that he doesn't understand, and doesn't think is worth his figuring out... I know he could understand it if he wanted to, but he figures he doesn't have time, and he can always hire someone to fix his compy (now he's got me for free :rolleyes: ), so why bother... which becomes a catch 22. I usually settle on "asking forgiveness is easier than asking permission".
You folks probably see trouble brewing already. Yup, I boot to the DOS prompt, type in
format c: /q
hit enter, y, enter, enter, y, enter, until it starts ... just as it says "formatting", I realize...
On my system, being the only hard disk, my HD was c:... since I had hooked it up on my Dad's system as slave, it was d:... my dad's hard disk was c:
I realized this in about .01ms after seeing "Formatting Drive C:" and I hit Ctrl + C, Ctrl + Break, Esc etc etc many times, all to no avail... it quick-formatted 1GB (mostly full) in about 2 seconds.
Luckily for me, I had backed up my Dad's documents about a week or two before, doing another unauthorized experiment... so my Dad wasn't too awefully mad when I told him I could get his stuff back. But it took almost all of a day's work to get his system running back the way he had it again.
The worst part is, I learned about the unformat command not too awefully long after that... :eek2: :rolleyes:
