Have you ever done something really stupid in order to accomplish another thing? If so, this is the place to post, relive your memories and have a laugh.
This is the Fight for Survival.
Now that I've finished my corny introduction, here's the story I feel the need to rant about on BigFooty.
A coupla years ago, I was on holidays, and having just gotten my license a few months before the holidays, I decided to test out my driving skills by driving around Vic, looking for a good place to stay and holiday with my friend. Crazy idea, but that's the sort of person I am.
So we packed our shit, wallet, car keys, clothes, toothbrush and breakfast for the next morning included and drove off into the sunset. After about three hours, it was dark, and I didn't know where the hell we were. I looked for any street signs, shops, cars. Nup. All I could see was an odd-looking motel. We were in some ****ing ghost town.
By then I was too tired to drive more, so we stayed in the motel. A couple more hours passed, almost midnight, and my mate and I were starving. The place didn't sell food and we had eaten everything there was in the fridge (a couple of mini milk bottles and pretzels). I then remembered I packed breakfast for the next morning! Pancake shit! I looked around for something to cook it in. The cheap place had no stoves, no ovens and no microwaves. I even looked through the wardrobes when a sharp ray caught my eye and almost blinded me. The iron. And yeah, you know the drill, putting pancake mix on the hot iron, trying to balance the mix so it didn't spill and all. Turned out to be pretty messy if I had to give a description.
I got really thirsty after our midnight snack. I thought that there must be something to drink here. Then I realised that we'd drinken everything in the fridge. By instinct, I walked over to the taps and tried out the water. Oh it worked, but there was little critters coming out with the water too. I didn't dare drink it or take a shower. By then I was seriously dehydrated, when a desperate idea popped into my head. The windscreen wipers on my car. I don't really want to describe the process in trying to drink water coming from the inside of my vehicle but desperate times call for desperate measures and that was the most ridiculous moment in my life.
You done anything?
