Default "I'm an idiot!" moment...

I've just spent last 10 minutes trying to login here. Everytime i inputed () my username and pass, i got the "thank you for logging in" screen, and the next screen was the usual forum screen, but unlogged. And i kept doing it a couple more times. I already thought the board is going down, and after trying everything i could, i looked at the address bar. Turns out while i was looking at that french topic about blackstone games that was translated via google or smth else, i clicked one of the links to xda there, and kept on reading xda from the translator. Only, there was no google in sight, just plain old xda. Weird.

And i feel so dumb right now
And i feel so dumb about posting this thread, but i have to. The very first thing i thought about after the incident was "I have to start a thread about this"

Anyone else had an "I'm an idiot" moment lately?

Default Hi. My name's Stuart, and I'm an idiot.

Took my bike for an MOT this morning (Thunderace, if you're interested). As the tester rode it onto the apparatus past me I noticed the rear shock squeaked a bit - hadn't noticed it before with a helmet on, windblast and the bulk of the bike blocking the noise from the drivers seat. All through the test, I was as nervous as an expectant father, was the examiner going to find something wrong that I hadn't forseen? Was there going to be some new strange test that the bike failed? Eventually, the tester came over to me and said it had passed.

Why did I then find myself saying "So the squeak from the shock wasn't a problem?"?!?!

He hadn't heard it but me asking prompted him to spend 5 minutes more examining it to find out if it was a problem or not!

That's my "I'm an idiot" moment for the day. I'm sure I'll be back tomorrow with another....
