What was your worst brain fart?

[Mayne]

It happened today for me. My niece gave me her bank card and I took my bike to the store where the atm is at. pin number didn't work..went back..she told me the number again. once again the pin didn't work..went back..she told me again..went back to atm and dldn't work. at this point she had to get to work..so i'm really under the gun to get this money out..pin didn't work again..went home again and realized i was using my sisters card instead of hers. went back and got the money.

my apartment has no elevator...i thought my heart might burst from the chest. thats enough exercise today.

60 flights of stairs and 5 blocks of bike riding in 30 minute stretch.

I block out all such events in my life. So I can repeat them indefinitely.

I did forget my PIN number recently. Just went completely blank. But the bigger brain fart was not realizing that my bank locked the account after a couple of failed attempts. Then I spent the better part of a week trying every damned combination of numbers that I could think of in different stores, and making sure I carried a second card with me. I actually remembered the correct PIN the next day, but of course it wouldn't work. I even changed the PIN online, but even that one wouldn't work because the card was frozen. I finally called them and had it unlocked.

Carson did you almost have a heart attack because you had one chance to get a pack of smokes before your niece had to go to work. I hate my job..feast or famine.

No, the first time I was just buying a few groceries, and paid in cash. Even if I hadn't had the cash, I wouldn't have a heart attack over being all out of greek yogurt and sardines.

I've had a couple before at work. Like I'll be looking at something for 30-45 minutes and can't figure it out and know it's something stupid. Then I'll have another developer look at it over my shoulder and it will be something really fucking basic like having a = instead of a == or something like that.

 

[BudAshes]

Mayne, you are lovely and all, but this sounds like less of a brain fart and more of a permanent leak.

Every morning. I wake up and then promptly ask myself why the fuck did I wake up and try to fall asleep again.

Accidentally locked my keys in my truck, in a loading zone at a sports dome while a bunch of other truck and trailers were waiting for me to move. 7 hours from my backup set.

Maybe not worst, but two weeks ago I went to the DMV and waited in line to pay for the registration on my motorcycle. I hand the clerk my old registration and she take one look at it and points to the valid until date. "The number 18 right here means the year 2018. You registered for two years the last time and still have a year to go."

That's actually funny. Not because you forgot but because of how the DMV lady told you.

I see this in your future

Stop smoking. Problem solved.

Usually forgetting my age is the worst I have happen. It stopped mattering after 30.

Sometimes forgetting names of people I see every day can get awkward though. I miss the military for that sometimes.

Was out with friends at a local eatery. Boss and her husband surprise visit to our table. I go to introduce boss lady to the group and completely blanked on her name.

Would have liked to crawl under the table....more beer please.

Some years ago I saw the new wife of a coworker in a grocery store. She was a sales rep for a local company and talking to someone in one of the departments. I wanted to say high, but couldn't remember her first name. If I could just get the first letter, I thought I'd remember it. So I figured I just needed something to jog my memory. I was in the frozen foods aisle, so began looking at products. Peas. Paula? Patty? Broccoli. Beth? Carrots. Cathy? Carole? .... and on and on. (It was Amanda. I guess I didn't see any artichokes or apple pie in the frozen foods that day.)
