    When my boyfriend and I started dating, I expressed my attraction to being pinned against the wall and kissed. So he and I go to take a shower, he, legally blind without his glasses, decides to pin me against the wall. He grabbed my head and slammed it so hard against the wall that I ended up having a minor concussion. He seriously misjudged the distance. It's also not all his fault. I think I would have been fine if my boss hadn't dropped a crib on my head the same day.

      Is that around the time you chose to wear that massive pink helmet of hair?
      If it works, I might try it - I’m constantly misjudging distances like how far away the head board might be or the height of a vehicle.
      If I go completely bald, my scalp will probably look like a flagellati’s back.

      My boyfriend was trying to be kinky while we were in bed I was on top of him and he picked me up to try and put me on his face he did this really fast no warning and with more strength than necessary I wound up head butting the wall so hard the clock above my bed fell and hit me in the back of the head this with and the head butting the wall gave me a concussion it's a funny story now that we can laugh about and was kinda funny in the moment but I had a bruise on my forehead for like a week

    Not an admissions clerk, but once reviewed a resume of an applicant for a writing position. Listed proudly that all the essays and papers she had written and sold to other students had received excellent grades. We handed out copies of this resume all over the office and did not hire her for some reason. She actually showed up for an interview because "she hadn't heard anything back". We were floored.

    I had a crush on a guy in our friend group for a long time. I finally told him I liked him around Thanksgiving time and it was a complete surprise to him. He asked me to give him some time to think about it and I was sure that he was definitely not into me. However, as the months passed he didn't seem to even remember that I asked him out.
    I asked him again around Valentines and he was like "Oh yeah!" Turns out things got busy at work (His job has a peak time from Black Friday to Super Bowl Sunday) and his dog had died at the beginning of the year. Things were just slowing down when I called him again.
    In the last 5 years, I've learned that he is generally just forgetful when something isn't immediately in front of his face. Otherwise, he just goes with the flow.

    After being out of school for years, I did a placement essay in pursuit of a communications degree. The topic was something along the lines of "Everyone is good at something, what do you think of this theory and what are you exceptionally talented in?"
    Legit wrote four pages about what an asinine concept it was, based on the reality that most people are mediocre at BEST and will never make any significant impact on society or the world as we know it (outside their close family and friends).. went on to talk about how the majority of people that any one of us would encounter can barely keep their shit together from the time they're functioning with any independence, let alone contributing in a meaningful way (useless pawns for the sake of capitalism). Chock full of cuss words, blunt honesty, and sarcasm. When I got to the part about myself, I basically stated I knew I was good at writing, but my crowning achievement was bullshitting through most of my own tasks and accomplishments, and the rewards I reaped as a result.
    I was placed in an honors literature class. It was scheduled right before my remedial algebra course 😂 🙌🏼

      Pull a fork out the trash compactor - it might be unique, but who would call it useful?
      Talent, opportunity, incentive, drive, usefulness, and relevance is rarely aligned in the lives of people but MUST be at least clustered together for any chance at success.
      Talent means nothing without the ability to use it.

    I stayed up two nights studying for a college final in American History. I woke on the day of the test with complete brain block. I took a couple of libriums to calm down, and by the time I got to the exam, I was stoned and punch drunk. I ended up writing these really exaggerated humorous essays. I skipped the last three questions and just drew full page pictures--for instance "E Pluribus Unum" in giant stone letters with Abraham Lincoln in a chariot racing across the top of it. The teacher gave me a B plus, but refused to give me back the test. He said it woke him up when he was grading at two in the morning. Years later, that teacher wrote me a great recommendation for graduate school.

    I wouldn't call it dumb exactly, but the story of my parents' proposal is super cute. My dad planned out an entire vacation for the two of them where the goal was to go out and see a special historical marker (not saying which due to privacy). It was a long but pleasant walk and his goal was to propose to my mom when they got there. They got there and my dad reached into his bag for the ring and it wasn't there. Before he had a chance to panic about it my mom got down and proposed to him with the ring. Turns out he wasn't as subtle as he thought and she had snagged the ring on the walk over while he was distracted. They've now been married over 20 years.

Then as an adolescent I got in trouble and went to juvenile detention where I won another poetry contest for a poem called "I'm a stoner". I'm most proud of that one.

    I once was a program advisor for a distance ed university. We had a former student who had applied to go to Med school and gave the med school a transcript from here. It was easy for the med school to determine it was a fake. The paper was entirely different. The colouring, the formatting, and most of all, the courses. He claimed to have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry. The problem is that we offered just one chemistry course, at the high school level. Needless to say, he didn't get to go to that med school. His name was flagged at our university and at post-secondary institutions, including med schools, PA schools etc. so that he couldn't get in anywhere else. The transcript is kept in our files, just to give us a laugh or two.

I accompanied him to court and the prosecutor said they had misplaced the original ticket and as the judge was saying that the ticket was to be cancelled my ex screamed out, “I’ll pay, I’ll pay!” The judge shrugged then said, “if you insist” and fined him double the amount he would have paid if he had just paid it before court. I practically died of embarrassment. As we walked out I explained what had just happened, he stopped and stared at me, looked back at the judge who was looking at him in puzzlement and we went to pay the fine.

      Better is the story from my class where the teacher had a real bug up his ass about pronunciation since the phonetic pronunciation is listed right in the book to tell you how to pronounce it. But some people, like the girl I sat next to, had a hard time even with that, and when she took a couple runs at pronouncing Hippocrates, I mock helpfully whispered "hippo crates"... She proudly and loudly said "Hippo crates" and every one laughed. The teacher, amused but not wanting to encourage me, made a face and wiped his face with his hand, said gently "its pronounced 'hip POC cruh tees' ". As I shook with laughter and gently apologized to her, saying "sorry, I just couldn't resist"

    I can't believe someone else has an intense fear of worms. I was so petrified of worms that back in elementary school I used to tell kids at my bus stop that I was allergic to them for fear of one of the rat tailed boys there throwing them at me. This happened to others often. I now have a Chameleon, (Boi Gorge) that eats certain types of worms. Thank Christ he doesn't require Earth Worms. I learned those are what I'm scared most of. I think it's because they don't have eyes and my mind can't comprehend how anything unless it's straight from the Tremors universe can be Earth Worms. Even though I use tongs to feed Gorge I will still 100% burn the house down if one of these fuckers goes anywhere except for Gorges mouth. Not today, Sand Worms.

    To be fair to some of these teachers: Sometimes they have very little say over particular assignments, and just have the "choice" of when each assignment is given out. They very well may be fully aware of the idiocy of the very thing that they're going to have to sit down and grade, after hearing about you complain about how stupid it is. They are (supposed to be) experts in the subject they're teaching you; they (should) know the shortcomings of not just the information, but the style in which measuring your retention of that information. This obviously isn't a universal. Sometimes teachers are just stupid. Or lazy. Or don't care. But sometimes they do care. I would even argue that _most_ care, but will be risking their jobs if they don't assign that stupid, meaningless project.

    The first time my mother ever saw my dad was when they were at a church thing for family home evening (were lds) and they were at BYU Idaho but at the time was Rex college. They were in the Benson building and my dad was standing on the big planter and jumped off it, nearly kicking a girl that he liked in the face at the time. My mother saw this and thought “what a weirdo I hope I never have to talk to him.” They have four kids and have been married for 23 years and are still going strong.

    on the married man topic: Although my Dad never married my mom, both her and his current wife hooked up because of something bizarre he did. To my mom: he simply walked up to her during lunch while she was waiting to get her meal and was like "Wanna Date?", to his wife: they spoke during Biology and I think he said something cute yet dumb. They have 3 sons.
    BTW: my mom didn't leave him, he left her. They were both in their 20's and he was totally not ready to have a kid. Then there was the possessive jealous GF who forced him to ghost us for seven years

      on the assignments: While I can't remember the exact assignment, I did have criticism of a teacher's testing/tutoring method. He used to teach my major's History class and he would shove as many facts down our throats and then test us primarily on memory, we don't even get a word bank for naming objects and yes, we lose points for poor spelling. After the first exam, 75% of the class flunked it, so he was forced to cancel classes for a week for the retake. in the end, at least 20% of my particular year (there were 28 of us I think) was forced to retake that class. Don't expect the memories of young adults to be perfect you know.

    @40:45 reminds me of a time that my family was on vacation. We went to this ice cream place because it’s supposedly one of the best in the country, and they didn’t have what my dad had wanted to order. There was this one thing on the menu, I forget what it was exactly but it was a banana split with an unusual combination of toppings that didn’t seem like they’d be good together. My dad decided to order it anyway and loved it so much that once it was gone he tried to eat the ice cream on the inside of the bowl and spent the rest of the night and the entire next day talking about it.
    The dumbest assignment I’ve ever gotten was when my 11th grade history teacher gave us a vocabulary packet to go with the in-class reading. This would have made at least a little bit of sense if the words on it had anything to do with the reading, but nope. We had to define words such as “mystic,” “bogus,” and “apocalypse” (which was actually listed twice in the same assignment). This wasn’t a situation where any of us could just transfer out of the class. The head of school got offended when one parent requested we get a new teacher and banned that mom from entering the school grounds or attending any school events, including her son’s graduation.
    @53:34 a couple semesters ago my professor gave us presentations. At the start of the presentations she told us to pay close attention because there would be a quiz on them later. Turns out the quiz wasn’t on the content of the presentation, but who gave which one.
