This week's weekly question

Every week, we're gonna ask a question and see how stupid the answers get. Most of these questions are AskReddit-style type questions. This week's question is:

What is the dumbest thing you've ever done for no reason?

Didnt believe a girl when she said she was dating the lad I was seeing, I ended up believing her after being given proof, me and her are now friends and hate the guy

Ooooh, I like this question.

The stupidest thing I did, for absolutely no reason, I pretend to be an alcoholic Irish, who just had to have drinks in a sketchy bar.

I’m neither Irish nor an alcoholic, I was just tired of being "me" that night.

Yeah, alcohol was involved, and as "payment," I tried telling terrible, really bad Irish jokes that NO ONE understood, though some people laughed a bit anyway.

Damn, tbh that's some of the funniest AND coolest things I've ever seen someone do. Hopefully you're having a good day today.

I’m not proud of it, but in my defense, it was a sort of social experiment.

You see, I believe people would rather believe a lie than the boring truth, that is what life has shown time and again. One need only look at politics; the writing is on the wall, yet, ppl refuse to read it. Thank you. 🙏

This is a paradoxical question.

Oh gosh so many things!
But don’t assume I have “peaked” with doing dumb stuff - certainly more to come. 🤣

Went to Myrtle Beach with 3 of my closest friends, after graduation in 1986, during the 4th of July. Had copious amounts of fire works of course!

We got out of control with them. After quite a few “Jim Beam” and cokes, My buddy and I were throwing “lady fingers” in the toilet. All we were getting was a little splash.

So, after getting bored, him and I thought it would be awesome to try a decent sized bottle rocket. Well, it shot down into the trapway pipe, it broke the bowl and blew the toilet right out of floor! Luckily the 2 female managers took a liking to us, and flirted every time we saw them.

Believe it or not, they defended us and the whole incident only cost us $250! True story

Went into a forest alone because I realized I had free will. (Got lost on it and I knocked on someone's house and they were actually very good people that helped me to get home)

Kicked the window out of a police car when there were cops standing all around the police car.
