What's the most stupidest thing you've done?
What's the most stupidest thing you've done with your w203?
I decided to do doughnuts in an open parking lot and forgot that I had coffee in the cup holder. So now I have coffee all over my seats and carpet. Now I have to remove the seats to clean the carpet.

Thats pretty stupid
Mine would have to be the time that I pre paid for gas inside the station and had parked my car at the wrong pump, I realized it after I had inserted the pump into the gas tank already. Sure enough I got in my car to move my car with the pump still attached to it. Luckily it just popped out and nothing major but could have been pretty bad I think

I test fit a spoiler on my car and forgot to take it back off. The very next day I ran up to the grocery store with it still resting on the trunk unattached. Luckily it fit well enough that it didn't fall off, otherwise it would've been a costly mistake, lol.

I drive a Toyota Hybrid...
One morning my hot 15 year-old sister came into my room crying. Dad had finally told her that her real parents were unknown - she was adopted. I was a good big brother. I put a comforting arm around her, and told her that it doesn't matter, that we'll always love her, and that I thought she was the most wonderful sister in the world. Then, I dunno how it happened, but we kissed, and soon things got really passionate - clothes came off, and... we had the most amazing sex. Sadly, it didn't last. After I came, I found out the condom had split. She started crying again, and I got the shakes. We went downstairs, hand in hand, to break the news to dad that his adopted daughter was probably pregnant. I have never been less amused by the words "April Fools".
just kidding... it wasn't me, but i feel like i would wanna share....

The stupidest thing I did was shake a Venom energy drink at Marco, who was sitting in the passenger seat. The top was securely on it, but it exploded anyway. That was in January. I am still finding sticky red residue in places inside the C230. Just the other day I cleaned some off the steering column.
I've accepted that it will never be perfectly clean again.

I don't know, Karo - coffee and donuts do go together. 
I would say that the stupidest thing I've done is probably not trying an S2000 when I was looking at buying a car at the time.

I the line of spilling stuff. Earlier this week, I went to Dairy Queen to get my daughter a blizzard. She did not come with me. It was a nice day out, not too warm, not too cool, did not have the AC on, had the windows down. I went to take the turn onto my road, and I placed my hand to the side of the blizzard, didnt think it would tilt, not sure why I did place my hand there, but to my horror, I felt melted ice dream oozing down my fingers and hand and all down and on my console. So when I turned one last time to get to my house, had to turn the other way, and felt ice cream oozing again down the other side... I got home, poured out the melted blizzard, took it in to my daughter and went back outside to clean it up. Thankfully it was not a lot, did not get on my carpet. My cup holder does not work that well now, I did take it out and cleaned it, but still gets stuck in the down position sometimes... Funny thing is, they asked me if I wanted a lid and I said no. Next time I get one for my daughter and she is not with me. No questions, lid please...

When I changed spark plugs on my BMW recently, while trying to remove the first plug, I used the 3/8" ratchet, extension, and the spark plug socket and turned the plug... it only turned about 45 degrees and stopped. I didn't want to break the plug... tried turning both ways, it was stuck. Really stuck. I tried to pull out, the ratchet and the extension came out. The socket was STUCK on to the plug. Then I realized that the socket must've been wrong size (slightly larger than needed). You don't want to know how stupid I felt :-)
Anyway, drove like that (with 5 cylinders) about 2 miles to BMW dealer. The technician looked at it and shook his head :-) He said he may have to pull the valve cover out to remove the socket. I talked to the service adviser and I explained to him I have the extended warranty and maintenance contract with them as well. Technician was able to remove the socket without having to remove the valve cover. They didn't charge me anything. :-)

THE C350
Well I also did the drive off with fuel nozzle still attached and bent the fuel door and put a nice dent on the fender 
That was a fun day. This is why you never drive to GA with your sister. I have the new door but have not had time to get it painted.

I haven't had much time to do TOO many stupid things with my W203 but I've certainly had more than my share with cars over the years. (some of them on this forum! )
One stupid thing was when I changed my wife's spark plugs and didn't get the air cleaner box latched down completely. It threw a CEL and my wife had to drive on a weekend trip worrying that it was something serious.
Maybe one of the more colorful stupid things I did with a car was when I was racing back in the dark ages. I bled the brakes and clutch on my race car in a hurry but didn't use a bottle and tube (pressure and vacuum bleeders weren't common). After a few laps, I had to pump both the brakes and clutch to get a pedal - I was a very busy person going into the turns! I was doing ok till I hit a bump in my braking zone at the end of the longest straight while I was pumping the brake and clutch. The car flipped at least 1/2 revolution - I looked up and saw the track - and landed upside down in the grass. Thankfully, I wasn't hurt and there wasn't that much damage to the car.
