Honestly answering a question like this where anyone in the world could read it would have to be the worst stupidity, but how about a medium stupidity? When I was eight I had a crush on my sister's friend Ruth. She reached down and pretended to grab an electric fence and said, "see its off, touch it" The Damn thing grabbed me and because my hand was around it my fingers closed. It cycled three times before I could step back and pull myself off of it. There went my boyish ego and my crush on Ruthie. I vowed from then on not to do anything stupid just to try and impress a girl I saw her about ten years ago at church. She was on her third divorce. I towered about a foot over her 5'4" slim frame. The girl that had developed first had been passed up by everyone else. I had to fight back a smirk when I told her I was happily married nine years (its 19 now). And if my wife asks me to grab a bare wire I still say "NO".
