Most air-headed thing you've done recently ?

Tries to plug the mouse in the HDMI port thinking it was USB port....

 

Sent in Corsair RM1000 for RMA because I forgot to turn on switch on back

 

Sent Noctua NH-D12 for RMA because it was too quiet

 

I thought at one point that laserjet printers use lasers to print which can chop your hands off

Let's see, this is not recently, but here i go:

 

- When i was little, i accidentally left TV remote in the fridge...

- Around 1,5 years ago, i zoned out and almost got hit by a car... To this day i can't remember those 30~ meters...

- While coming home from the supermarket, i was looking at my feet and hit a road sign, pretty hard... :(

 

And i'm quite sure there's more, but these are the ones i remember, i'll try remembering the rest :)

Made some tea and added some sugar for once. 

But i had forgotten to hold onto the spoon with my thumb as i was taking the first sip.

The spoon slid down and hit me in the eye. I went "GAAH!" With near scalding tea in my mouth.

Spilled near scalding tea in my lap...

 

Not one of my finest moments..

 

Spent about five minutes walking around my apartment looking for my car keys.

I had them in my hand..

I was in the men's bathroom and I was exiting the bathroom. I saw a female leave a door and she was blocking my view of where the female sign would be so I assumed that was the exit. Safe to say it wasn't the exit. I said "well shit" she laughed I go red in the face then leave xD.

 

+ When I sold my GTX 770 I was taking it out of my rig. I couldn't take it out for some reason after un-screwing the thumb screws. I was like dafuq and let the guy have a try, turns out I didn't remove the cables out of the back.

Happens every day:
1)Take the food out of the wrapper.

2)Go to put wrapper in bin.

3)Nearly throw food into bin, with wrapper still in hand.

 

Most days I manage to stop myself, but sometimes I lose the food :(

i derped trying to put a 120 fan on a cousin build i was doing, i thought the fan was suppose to go outside the case frame, sitting between that and the front panel, turns out it goes inside the frame, it took me 30 minutes to figured that out -.-

this is one of the greatest thing that has happened to me recently, and it happened on this forum, those involved have my eternal gratitude http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/198850-update-alex-got-his-moto-g2-lets-get-a-moto-g-for-alexgoeshigh-unofficial/ :')
