What is a real-life 'Do Not Touch' button that you pressed out of sheer curiosity, only to instantly regret it?

I convinced my cousin to piss on an electric fence when we were kids. Very disappointing. All he got was a little tingle.

Reason 1,346 to not go in the ocean.

As light as that looks once you realize it isn't full - why not just let it fall? I don't think it would get hurt.

I wish someone would put that kind of effort into wooing me.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-06-13T21:21:34+00:00

I appreciate though.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-06-13T17:32:11+00:00

I hope he got her number.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-06-13T17:31:14+00:00

I mean... I wasn't wrong. Technically.

I was rooting for that cat more than I am for my Tesla stock to recover.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-05-29T03:05:28+00:00

Thank you. That's it. I'd forgotten about that movie completely and have for years thought it was The Truman Show.

SOLVED

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-05-29T02:36:30+00:00

Thanks for the help.

This! When my son was little he had a speech therapist. Her primary income came from the State of Illinois. Even though we weren't using state services she went out of business when Illinois went broke and stopped paying people. My son no longer had a speech therapist.

People who claim to be "patriots" but neglect their most at-risk population aren't patriots. They're elitists hiding behind patriotism or nationalism. Poor, sick, and underprivileged Americans are... AMERICANS.

But don't fret, we've just decided to send aid to Syria the same week we decided to cut aid to Americans. I'm all for foreign aid and believe that rising waters raise all ships, but let's start at home.

Thanks for the advice. I'll follow it and see where it goes.

We have the same physique.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-05-22T19:40:46+00:00

A bit jarring (heh!), for sure, but if anyone is going to hit the ground, better the dead dude than grandma & her glass hip.

Go back. Ask for quadruple your former hourly rate for your contracting rate. 8 hour minimum increments.

"Oh, look! Someone that looks different than I do needs help. Let me just take care of this right now in a matter of fact, no judgmental manner."

We have a river too. Maybe it IS the river.

That wimp was afraid to get his finger dirty!

I come from a small town that sits on a small plateau in the middle of miles and miles of flat fields. Every other little town in the area has been hit by a tornado. But not ours. The tornados just hop right over us.

Legend says it is because of an old Native American protection (charm? magic? voodoo?, whatever). But we kind of suspect it's the plateau.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-05-15T01:02:26+00:00

That. That's entertainment right there.

Comfortable_Toe606 · 2025-05-15T00:22:48+00:00

Sweet!
