Do you remember the episode of the Cosby Show when Dr. Huxtable responded to Theo “that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard”? He had said it in response to Theo’s heartwarming and passionate statement about wanting to be like regular people and get a regular job so he didn’t need good grades while in high school.
.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve said this a few times as well to my sons when they too were in high school, never imagining I would be repeating myself when one of them went away to college.
.
Just like Heathcliff Huxtable, I love my son, but he did something really dumb! A few weeks ago, Malik, called the house after midnight, which is never a good sign. He stated that he was on his way to the Emergency Room at the local hospital….hold on before I continue telling you what happened, check out the results, however, please be warned the 2nd photo is a bit graphic!

So he goes on to tell us that he was out and about after midnight and wanting to open a bottle of soda (yes soda, he hates beer), without a bottle opener, he tried a trick…which obviously didn’t work so well. The trick was to smash the lid against a wall to pop the top….

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard!
.
Oh but wait there’s more, after having surgery last week and getting more than 10 stitches to repair the cut tendons, the doctor informed him that he won’t be able to use his hand for 3 months!!!
.
This is his right hand and although I am proud to be a leftie, neither one of my sons inherited that trait.
.
Oh and one more thing…this is finals week….
.
Is this the dumbest thing that you’ve ever heard? If not, please make me feel better and share your something dumber.
.
By the way, I just sent him this video
