I’ve been training in karate since I was a kid, and I have a black belt. My husband has always liked that about me, and sometimes we playfully ‘spar’ for fun. One day, my husband was standing in the living room, engrossed in the news on TV. I thought it would be funny to sneak up on him and do an energetic kick, stopping just short of his stomach. What I didn’t account for was that I was wearing tight jeans. As a result, my leg didn’t go exactly as planned and…...I slipped, lost my balance, and ended up kicking the wall instead. We both burst out laughing as I rubbed my sore foot....I loudly fart... Nothing more to add....my foot veered off-course and hit the coffee table instead, sending a loud bang through the room. I stood there wincing while he looked over in surprise....I accidentally kicked him straight in the groin. He doubled over in pain, and I immediately felt guilty, apologizing while he groaned on the floor.

A few years ago, while shopping at the mall, I suddenly had to go to the restroom. I entered a stall, sat down—damn, constipation. After a few moments, I heard someone enter the stall next to me, on my left. A few minutes passed, and suddenly the guy knocked on the partition and asked if he could borrow my phone for a moment because his had died, and he needed to call his wife urgently. She was also in the mall, and he needed to let her know it would take him a few more minutes. Without thinking much of it, I agreed and handed him my phone under the stall. As soon as he grabbed it......he thanked me and gave the phone back, but I felt uneasy the rest of the day, thinking how risky that was....I heard the door slam—he ran off with my phone! By the time I finished, pulled up my pants, and rushed out, there was no trace of him....After a moment of silence, the guy finally passed my phone back under the stall. I picked it up, but to my horror, it was smeared with something brown.......I waited for a minute, and just as I was starting to feel uneasy, the guy slid my phone back under the partition. Relieved, I picked it up, only to find the screen completely shattered. He mumbled a quick, ‘Sorry, it slipped,’ and rushed out before I could even respond.

Right before Christmas, I got home late one night and, taking advantage of the next day being free, I slept in. The intercom woke me up. Hungover and in my boxers, I answered—it was the mailman with a registered letter. Of course, it must be the present for my girlfriend that I had feared wouldn’t arrive in time. I barely pulled on my pants when I heard the doorbell ring. I grabbed a t-shirt and rushed to the door. I was trying to put it on with one hand while unlocking the door with the other. For some reason, I just couldn’t find the hole for my head. Expecting to figure it out any moment, I grabbed the handle with my other hand and opened the door before the mailman could leave. So there I stood, struggling with this stupid t-shirt in front of the mailman. Even though my head and both arms were inside, I still couldn’t find the opening for my head or sleeves. Also, the shirt felt oddly short. As the mailman began to clear his throat awkwardly, I finally gave up, pulled it off and......noticed that I had grabbed my girlfriend’s top by mistake and had been wrestling with it in front of the mailman....saw that I had been wearing my pants around my neck instead of the t-shirt! The mailman couldn’t contain his laughter....figured out it was a t-shirt, but I had somehow put it on completely backward and inside-out....realized I had been trying to wear a pillowcase.

Sometime before the summer, my girlfriend and I were talking about her upcoming trip to Greece. She had a new job where she was walking a lot, and she was excited about losing weight: ‘I’ll have the perfect beach body!’ At that moment, knowing how much she loves Greek food, I wanted to joke that she might gain the weight back after enjoying all the delicious dishes there. But what came out of my mouth was, ‘When you get back, you’ll be fat again.'......She raised an eyebrow and replied sarcastically, ‘Well, looks like you’ll have to deal with a fat girlfriend then.’...Her face dropped, and I instantly realized I had made a huge mistake. She asked quietly, ‘Is that really what you think?’...She didn’t say a word, just gave me a long, disappointed look, and walked out of the room....It took her a moment to process what I had just said (and the same for me). There was a long, awkward silence. Then she asked, ‘So you’ve always thought I was fat?’

One day after work, as usual, my husband picked me up, and we went to the mall for some shopping. He decided to stay in the car while I went inside. The moment I stepped in, I felt an intense stomach pain and an urgent need to go to the restroom. I thought about using the mall bathroom, but I hate public restrooms. So, I quickly ran out of the store and hurried to the car. I got in and said, ‘Drive fast, or I’m going to have an accident!’ But the car wasn’t moving. I looked at the driver, and there was a random man sitting there! In my rush, I had gotten into the wrong car. His expression was priceless. I turned red with embarrassment, quickly got out, and rushed to my husband’s actual car, where he was waiting. We drove home as fast as possible. At home, I dashed to the bathroom. Ten minutes later, I heard the doorbell ring. I came out, opened the door, and looked…...and it was a delivery man with a package, but I was so angry I punch him in face....to see my neighbor standing there, asking if everything was alright because they heard the commotion....and there stood the man from the car, holding my purse, which I had accidentally left in his car during the confusion....and it was my husband, laughing at my mix-up and saying, ‘You won’t believe, he is my friend from school!’

For Christmas this year, I got a fancy smartwatch. It’s one of those cool ones where you can run apps, sync it with your phone, and get notifications. A fun gadget. Ever since I got it, I’ve been wearing it non-stop. Yesterday, I was at a family Christmas dinner. At some point, nature called, and I went to the bathroom. I stood over the toilet and started peeing. The pressure was impressively strong. A few seconds in, I felt my watch vibrate on my wrist, comfortably resting on the hand I was using. Instinctively, I turned my wrist to check what the urgent notification was, and…...I immediately regretted it, as my hand crossed paths with the stream, making an absolute mess....I managed to keep control, but when I checked the message, it was just a reminder to drink more water. Oh, the irony!...in the process, I accidentally redirected the stream, spraying everywhere but the toilet. Including my face. Chaos ensued....I realized too late that I had disrupted my aim and made a mess, just as someone knocked on the door.

I can’t stand my fiancée’s mother, and the feeling is entirely mutual. However, my fiancée has a very close relationship with her, so for a long time, I’ve done everything I could to win her over. In the end, things were going somewhat okay between us. One evening in December, my fiancée got a call. She said it was her mom and went to the other room, like she always does. Almost an hour later, she called me over and said, ‘Mom wants us to come over for Christmas, but we’d have to stay in a hotel.’ Half-joking, I replied, ‘Not only do I have to see her during the holidays, but I also have to waste money on a hotel? Screw her, no way.’ Suddenly, I heard her mom’s voice coming from the phone on the desk. The phone had been on speaker the whole time......Her mom stayed silent for a moment, then calmly said, ‘Well, I guess that settles it. Enjoy your Christmas alone.’...The room filled with awkward silence, and I realized there was no escaping the fallout from what I had just said....Her mom immediately launched into a furious rant, calling me a ‘disrespectful idiot’ and ‘useless bum,’ while I stood there frozen....I panicked and tried to apologize on the spot, but my fiancée’s mom was too enraged to listen, calling me all sorts of names.

For the past few days, I’ve been having strange issues with the signal on my phone. This morning, I thought I’d try swapping in my sister’s SIM card to see if the problem was with my phone or my card. I sat at the kitchen table and got to work. The SIM card swap went smoothly. My phone uses a micro SIM, one of those tiny ones, so I made sure to keep my own card in my hand the entire time so I wouldn’t lose it. No risks. I sat there with my phone in my right hand and my SIM card in my left, waiting for the phone to power up. There was a bowl of chips on the table, so without thinking, I started snacking. I kept watching the signal bar on the phone for a few minutes, grabbing another chip every so often, until I realized that the issue wasn’t with the SIM card. I took my sister’s SIM card out of the phone and then realized I couldn’t find my own card! I looked at the table, then at the floor, then at the bowl of chips…...I frantically searched around, convinced I had dropped it, only to realize my sister had taken it by accident....I panicked, thinking I’d lost it, but found it stuck to the bottom of my phone case a few minutes later....In a moment of painful clarity, I realized I had eaten the SIM card along with the chips!...After a frantic search, I found the SIM card stuck to the bottom of the bowl, drenched in oil and crumbs from the chips. At least it wasn’t in my stomach!

It was a Saturday evening. I had somehow managed to invite one of the prettiest girls from school over to watch a movie with me. Honestly, I couldn’t believe I pulled it off because I’m pretty average. I really wanted to make a good impression. Everything was going great. We cuddled a bit, talked after the movie, and even started kissing. At one point, she kissed my neck. Now, I’m terribly ticklish, so I immediately curled up and laughed. She asked if I was ticklish, and when I confirmed, she started tickling me. Everything was perfect—a Saturday night, a beautiful girl, tickling in bed—what could go wrong? Well, apparently, a lot could. She tickled me harder around my ribs, and I jumped up, flailing my arms, and…...unintentionally elbowed her right in the nose. Blood immediately started pouring, and she began crying. The mood was completely shattered, and she soon left......awkwardly hit her in the eye, and we both just froze in shock, trying to figure out what happened....accidentally knocked over the lamp on my nightstand, which shattered, and suddenly the mood was completely ruined....somehow managed to fall off the bed, and we both burst out laughing. The moment was saved by the silliness.

Last year, I spent a week in the hospital. One time, while I was sitting in the hospital cafeteria at a large table, a blind girl sat down beside me. After a while, someone brought her a tray of food. Since she was blind, I shamelessly watched, curious to see how she would manage to eat. She touched the items on her tray until she found a small bowl of breakfast cereal. It looked like Cheerios. She lifted the bowl to her ear and shook it. A guy sitting at the same table, who was also watching her, asked if she knew what it was. She answered, ‘Cheerios.’ I was in shock. She had identified the cereal just by the sound it made when she shook it! My curiosity got the best of me, so I asked, ‘Wow, can you really tell it’s Cheerios just by the sound? Do other cereals sound different when you shake them? How did you know it wasn’t something else?’ She responded…...‘I guessed based on the weight.’...‘It’s not the sound—it’s the texture of the bowl. Cheerios have a unique feel.’...laughing, ‘Because I asked for Cheerios.’ The whole table erupted in laughter. I feel like a dumbass....with a smile, ‘I’ve been eating them since I was a kid. Trust me, I know that sound anywhere.’
