My best mind-in-neutral breakfast moment was when I got some bread out of the bin to make toast, lit the grill, turned my transistor radio on - and put it under the grill.
It still worked afterwards, just wouldn't stand up because the plastic case had melted into an amorphous blob.

I didn't have milk one morning, so I used Sprite with my cereal.

@Sylvus_Moonbow: Just so I can fully appreciate how gross that was, what kind of cereal? I'm trying to decide what would be the worst. Fruity Pebbles and Count Chocula both seem like strong contenders.

When I was young (about 7) I had a piece of bread in one hand and a crumpled up dollar bill in the other. I almost swallowed the dollar bill.

Even to this day I have no idea what made me not realize I put the wrong object in my mouth until like ten seconds later.

Honeycombs! O_O lol

I tend to make my cup of coffee in the morning without the cup. I am running around doing other things until I get back into the kitchen to see it cascading off the counter and onto the floor.

I once tried to make dough only to realize 2/3rds of the way through that I had not added in any sugar. I tried then adding in the sugar. This did not work out.

Another time I forgot to add in any eggs. That time I was able to basically add them in by hand (while kneading).

Truly an unholy alliance.

I did Lucky Charms and Mountain Dew once. It was good for about 90 seconds before the marshmallows dissolved.

Actually, this was last week:

I added milk to my instant coffee, except that i didn't add any actual coffee and was stuck with warm water mixed with milk on my way out the door. Dunkin Donuts was my hero, but I am no longer using instant coffee again.

I misplaced a textbook today and spent several hours looking for it. I'd hardly even call it a textbook to be honest, its so small and thin that honestly it really is more of a booklet (it uses 8.5x8.5 paper, is paperback, and is only like 46 pages long (with references).

Somebody stole @elminster 's spellbook.... sounds like @Edwin_Odesseiron to me

elminster

I like to think my spellbook is more impressive than this was.

I put once a cup of water in the microwave to warm, but forget to fill the cup with water. The cup was from glass. When i opened the microwave oven the bottom and one side of the cup was melted. I touched it with a spoon (i assumed it was hot) and the cup blowed up into tiny pieces. No one got hurt.

^ wow, scary

Once, the PVC roller shutters on my balcony door got stuck and couldn't be completely raised. I wasn't able to fix this myself so i had to lower my head whenever i got out. Eventually i took a kitchen knife and violently cut off the "extra" part. Now i don't hit my head but they can't be fully lowered (and light passes through the slats because of this which can be a problem in the morning in the summer). I think that was pretty stupid and so does my girlfriend who watched in disbelief.

When I want to heat up my tea or coffee, I usually put a cup of it on my PC or right behind my laptop. It has been working great for 5 years already.

Mistaking salt with sugar and accidentally salting my tea.... and trying to drink it afterwards... That thing is never going to happen again.

NEVER.

I accidentally left a dirty pot (didn't really look dirty but it had some remnant liquid on the bottom) in my flat when i went on a vacation. When i came back i was thrilled to see a broccoli-sized fungal growth inside, and it looked like broccoli too. I then took a camera and filmed it and tried to talk to it.

JuliusBorisov

@bob_veng Did it talk back?

I always fill my cups to high up and spill coffee everywhere. I would be worst waiter ever since I constantly spill liquids all over floors etc. I have no idea why we bought a white carpet for the living room, it was a really bad idea for a couple who likes to eat and drink in front of the TV.

I've spillt coffee on the keyboard more times than I can count. Luckily, coffee doesn't seem to mess up the electronics as much as soda or similar beverages.

I often walk around with the TV remote in one hand when going to ie the kitchen to get something. Then when I try to find the remote, it's in the fridge. I do the same with my cellphone, it usually ends up in the closet if I am changing clothes etc.

I like to consider myself like one of those 'slightly confused professor' types, but unfortunately without the brilliant mind.

i do, but i'd rather not, sorry

I used OJ in my cereal once, it was actually really good, but it all stuck together and I needed to throw half of it out.

Also, this one's really weird, but when I was a little kid, early in the morning I would routinely get ready to pee in a trash can, then just before I did I'd always suddenly realize it wasn't a toilet and I'd zip up and hurry to the bathroom...

So I was going to read this manga online, and it said it wasn't for the faint of heart.

I clicked on it anyway.

bob_veng

Once i had a band and we practiced at my home. I wasn't big on washing the dishes back then and you could see the kitchen from where we were. The singer said that he can't stand dirty dishes and that he has to wash them before we start playing, so he washed my dishes. There was a lot so it took a while. I even helped him a bit.

What was it?

joluv

That sounds like a very clever thing you did. Now I want to start a band with a bunch of neat-freaks.

FinneousPJ

I always put my cell somewhere it doesn't belong while trying to wake up. Sometimes it's in the fridge, sometimes in the bathroom cabinet. And then I never manage to get out the door in time

semiticgoddess

@SmilingSword: Not going to say. I don't want anyone else to see it, ever. I wouldn't wish that on them--and this coming from a guy who has been able to stomach some very extreme content. It's a secret I plan on taking to my grave.

When I was about seven years old, I wanted to put ketchup on my dinnerplate, but I accidentally poured it into my tea instead.
But wait, there's more: I got myself a new cup of tea and did the same thing again.
My dad got so mad at me, he grounded me for the rest of the day :I
