There, somebody had to do it...take one for the team. ;)

Well, lets see...


I managed to run over my own foot while pushing my car out of the street (ran out of gas, so I guess that makes double-pwned)

Another time I said "have a nice day, sir" to what was really an ugly, facial-haired woman with no breasts due to breast cancer requiring their removal. (s)he went off on me for like 20 minutes over that! Not my fault she looks like a dude but... yeah. Foot, meet mouth.

I guess I don't really have anything truly noteworthy; just paltry sh!t like those examples. Now as for that guy who punched his elbow through a $139 million painting he'd just won at auction...

When I was in HS we had a fire drill one day and our mustering point was on the football field. I was walking in the middle of a big mob of my peers (student body was over 2000) and I was busy talking to my friend and not watching where I was going. Out of nowhere, one of those poles they put in pedestrian walkways to keep cars from driving on them jumped out at me! It was crotch-high and it got me right in the nads. At least my friend thought it was funny.

That was 19 years ago and that moment has defined my life ever since (I almost never look at who I'm speaking to while walking).

Once I was getting a real good mouth to peen head bobbing session.... then her phone rang and she answered it...

Needless to say, I had to resort to freddy five fingers to finish the job.

It sucked in more ways than one.

A cop pulled a u-turn and followed us for a short while after he saw a girl's head bobbing up and down in my lap. Found a nice secluded area about 10 minutes later and activities resumed :evil:

Screwed up muptiplying in my head, and claimed that I had reskidded 1150 TV's, when in reality I had only done 260. This is because 13 skids times 20, not 50, tvs per skid = 260. My bosses boss said "Yeah right, we all know you'd never get 1150 TV's prepared EVER, you'd never work that much"

I have walked into a calc class hungover like hell only to discover that there is an exam. Yep, i got the lowest score. Heres to pulling that class average down.

More recently, i had a friend from out of town staying with me and i forgot to enable lock-down on my rig. He really had some fun here making me look like an idiot. If he didnt live in GA i would visit him and deal out some payback. ;) I dont know if there is a "philosophy geek" forum though.

Edit, here is another one. While in HS the same guy mentioned above and i were at a lake/camping party. I was making out with some chic (drunk, duh). He pulls me aside and says, "dood, you dont want to do her. Just dont. Bad news." I take his advice and promptly seek other "company." Leaving the next day he comes crawling out of his tent with her! Wait, is that me getting pw0ned or him?

Pulled a 3 day no sleep cram session for two CS finals.

I ended up starting to hallucinate. I went to the first exam and passed out. I woke up on the floor with my professor slapping my face saying I had to take the test. I could barely even read the test.

Then before I even went to my next final, I passed out again, and this time no one was around to wake me up.

:( Changed my study habits and work ethic after that debacle.

I passed a note to him in a crumpled ball by flinging it accross the floor, which contained information for him about a new Star Wars card i created called "Feisty Jawa" and ithe Jawa's cool abilities. The problem was that the note didnt arrive by his desk. it hit a pole and landed in the middle of the classroom on the floor. Well the teacher saw it and called me out on it.

As a punishment i was required to write up 30 handwritten copies (for my 30 classmates) of the exact note that i sent to my friend talking about the feisty jawa card. It took forever to write the notes, and the whole class was like 'wtf' after reading the notes. Apparently they didnt understand the coolness of the "feisty jawa".

I would think the teacher would have thought the fact that you will never get laid would be punishment enough. :p

lol

I spent hours and hours and hours over the course of a few months trying to get my Beetle running properly after some little bastard poured sugar in the gas tank... I even after pulled the tank and cleaned it out. I was finally getting ready to pull all the fuel lines one by one to figure out WTF was the problem, when I found the SECOND fuel filter, nearly invisible since it was so coated with dirt. This is what it looked like. So I spent, all told, probably a good forty hours or more tweaking and tuning and cleaning, all to find out it was a $3 fuel filter that I didn't know was there.

when i was about 14, i was standing balancing on a 2X4 that was laid across 2 saw horses.

one of my brothers came by and thought it would be funny if he knocked me off.

He pushed my ankles right off and i landed flat on my back on top of the 2X4. I thought for sure my back was broken

How about somebody else that we have pwned...

In second grade there was this girl that was in my grade, and we carpooled to school together.

We hated eachother, and we were out on the soccer field playing soccer, and she called me a nerd or something.

so a little later we were both chasing the ball, and we were running fast, and i tripped her right in to this huge disgusting sh1t mudhole in the middle of the field that never dried and was about 3 inches filled with algea and flies and stuff.

She was covered in it and she went and told on me, but i said it was an accident, i was going for the ball.

I guess you are more trustworthy when you dont talk or get into trouble, and you have the best grades in the class, nobody believed her when she said i tried to trip her. If thats not passive agressive, i dunno what is. :evil:

PWNED Ashley!!!! how do you like that (if i remember right, she was kinda cute, ill bet shes super hot now too..)

About two weeks after I got my car, I wanted to be a dumbass and take a turn fast. So I slow down to about 40, press the clutch, put it in 2nd, floor it, turn, pop the clutch, hit some gravel, slide like a mofo, and proceed to demolish some gardenia bushes. It blew out my tire and ripped out my wheelwell. When I went to get a new tire, they tire guy said that the wheel was warped and I'd have to get a new one. I was very lucky though, I could have hit the guys house, truck, or a massive tree trunk beside the road. Needless to say, I learned my lesson.

Once in high school while playing basket ball I went after a loose ball and ran into a cement wall running at full speed. Dislocated my shoulder and tore several ligaments. You wouldn't believe the number of "yeah watch out for those walls" comments I've gotten since then.

lol pwned...

sort of along the same car crashing lines, a couple years ago, i was growing my hair out, and i found that i really liked how it feels to comb it, and i was going about 10 mph and i looked down for my comb, and then *wack!* i smacked a new toyota carrolla into some sign by an appartment complex by my school. my 1975 camaro was fine, i had a new dent in a fender but thats it, her 2005 2 week old carolla was pwned, my insureance paid 2500 in repairs for her.

i got pwned for being a dumbass and my friends made fun of me and my insurance went up a bit

13 * 50 = 650. :confused:

I got mugged once in KC when I was with three female friends (we were all college kids at the time).

Two street thugs appear from behind (me). The bigger dude grabbed me from behind with his forearm, lifted me up slightly off the ground and put a gun barrel to the back of my head.

The smaller dude grabbed one of the girls (he has a gun, too, puts it to her head), searched her pockets (and a little more). Then he searched the other girls' pockets.

The third girl runs and calls the cops. They show up soon, but the perps are long gone.

Total pwnage. Not a goddamn thing I could do. They grabbed me first, figuring I was the only one that would possibly attempt heroics. Clearly I didn't :(

I tried kicking open a door in a friend's house, thinking it would open. But instead my foot went through the door and I fell forward into the door. To make even worse, it was the door to the cellar, which I then bounced, fell and slide down.

On my honeymoon in Bora Bora this year, I jumped out of the kayak that my wife and I were in and went for a swim. I thought it would be funny to sneak up behind and flip her out of it too. Only when I tried to flip it I got dragged under somehow and the thing came back upright (didnt flip) and the force it came down with knocked me in the head HARD.

I got dizzy, wife was still dry and laughing her a$$ off seated safely in the kayak...

PWNED
