I hallucinated a werewolf and slammed on the brakes of an 8 ton military vehicle in rural Afghanistan, causing a patrol to go on alert for an attack.
Could be worse - a sleep-deprived navy crew crashed the USS McCain into a tanker
Yep. That’s definitely worse.
My story is less destruction and more funny.
So, while very tired, I managed to find myself at a local coffee shop. I ordered my coffee, went over to the stand where the milk/sugar and stuff is.
What I intended to do next was to get a couple of sugar packets and put them into my coffee, and throw away the paper package, as usual.
What I actually did was, grab two sugar packets, tear them open and dump their contents directly into… the trash. Yep. My brain skipped over the part where this step requires putting the package contents into my coffee.
I stood there for a minute while my brain tried to process what I had just done.
Once my brain caught up, I mentally facepalmed, dropped the now empty packets into the garbage, grabbed my coffee and went to sit down and drink it. I punished myself with drinking black coffee because I was too tired and stupid to deserve my coffee any other way.
These comments are starting to make me think that driving tired is as bad or worse than drunk driving.
My brain switched yawning with moaning. Lets just say that wasn’t the proudest day of my adult work life
Really trying to imagine what this looked like lol
Probably didn’t look much different than a person yawning.
Pour applejuice in my coffee instead of milk.
Not really sleep deprived but in a groggy morning state.
I wear contact lenses. The morning time process of putting them on is very similar to the night time process of taking them off. On several occasions I confused these two processes and it always happened in the morning. I basically attempt to remove my contacts even though they’re not in. I take my thumb and index finger and grip my bare eyeball in a gentle pinching motion. i do this multiple times before realizing my mistake. Lol turns out you can touch your bare eye with zero pain or discomfort
