what daft things have you done recently that have amused you?

[BaldAndWild]

I drew a picture of a shark on my shopping list and then wrote underneath it "note to self, do not actually purchase a shark".

Then I chuckled disproportionately.

How have you been amusing yourselves?

I filled up the kettle through its spout instead of through the lid and then apologised to it.

I text someone to offer them a "cuppa or chicken balls".

I was actually asking did they want a cuppa or some sort of alcoholic drink, but was half thinking to myself that I needed to check the Chinese I wanted to order from sold chicken balls because dd2 won't eat anything much else on the menu, & that's how it came out.

It made me laugh for days every time I thought about it

ha ha ha - but did it reply, @growinggreyer (I think our usernames go nicely together! although I am not really bald or wild, its from a Sylvia Plath poem).

That's made me laugh too, @Lucysmam. I have had some red wine in a plastic cup (#CivilisedApocalypse) which makes funny things even funnier.

Oh yes, and I say "Poo-belle" when I empty solids from the cat litter into the outside bin.
I'm easily amused.

Any others?

Not me but my son, he was using my phone to edit some pictures and he tells me that he's put 'your penis son' on one???? He actually said 'yippee and a sun' 😂

Not recently, but years ago I was chatting with a guy on a dating site. It was around Christmas time and we were talking about the rides that had been set up at our local Christmas market. He made reference to one of the main rides and I replied, 'I'd love a shit on that' 😳 what I meant to say was, 'I'd love a SHOT on that'! F@cking autocorrect at it's best 🙈😂

I cheerfully said thank you to the self scanner in Asda.

On my bike and had cycled 15 miles and decided break time. I came to a stop, lost my balance and fell over and just lay there laughing at the stupidity of it

op

I cut my own hair last month and looked like Jon Bon Jovi for a week.

Lol! That had me literally laughing out loud. Did they reply back?

@73kittycat73 He did! We had a laugh about it but we never did end up meeting for a shit on that ride 🤣 x

Yesterday I went to put some rubbish out , I had some for three of the four bins , I found myself talking to the bins
general rubbish 'there you go'
tin / plastics ' some for you '
food / compost bin ' open wide '
paper / card bin ' none for you today '
The worst of it was I actually felt a twinge guilt for not feeding the paper bin.

I hope my neighbours didn't hear me

I've remembered another one. I was walking on an empty beach and had to cross a big gully so I leapt across like a ballet dancer jette-ing with pointed toes and everything. Then I clocked a family walking towards me that I had totally missed. Had to walk past them with a sensible face on.

Earlier I cut the crusts off DD’s pizza, put the knife in the bin and crusts in the dishwasher

Very belated thank yous for replying!

I also warble in mock opera style when I'm driving alone (& say ruefully "I missed my calling").

@AlCalavicci Remember these adverts?

This week my DH and I indulged in our seasonal present-wrapping silliness: while he wrapped my presents, I was there keeping him company. I was hoping he might let me see them this time, but no - I couldn't see a thing, because I was blindfolded. But I enjoyed winding him up, and teasing him to try to make him let slip what I might be getting. We do this every time, I love it really.

My ex boyfriend one time text to say he would meet me after he 'wanked the dog' 😅 I told him to make sure he washed his hands after

I cycled past a field of sheep this morning and one Baa'd at me.

I said 'Shush you!' and then laughed hysterically at myself! (shush ewe)

Bought what I thought was a quirky shirt with parrots on for my brother online and it turns out they're all smoking parrots, really made me laugh when I made the discovery 😂

These are great! I remember Wanderings'

I replied to my own message on an online dating app.

Today I saw some cat drawings on a sandy beach. I wrote beside them "these are great" - it made me smile.
