25 People Confess The Worst Decision They Ever Saw Someone Else Make

16.

I had a friend ask another friend to shoot him with a blow dart. First the guy shot him in the leg, but my friend thought that was too easy (he was an overly confident marine reserve), so he asked him to shoot him in the side. The guy did and it punctured his lung, though he wouldn’t admit it. Then, trying to play it cool, he decided to “go home,” when really he was “going to the hospital.” We all followed him to his car trying to convince him to let one of us drive or call an ambulance, but he just kept saying nothing was wrong. He collapsed right as he unlocked his car and we had to call 911. He’s fine, aside from his injured ego and dim wits.

A girl married her boyfriend the summer after junior year of high school, then they dropped out, and then split up before they were even married a year. I don’t always judge people for marrying young, but this was clearly a series of bad decisions.

A friend signed with a professional sports organization at 18 yo for $1.2 million and spent 95% of it on junk without put any of it into an investment fund.

My friend on why he proposed to his controlling, angry girlfriend of five miserable years: “I did it so she would stop asking.” Wedding is in three months.

Outside a bar, the bouncers offer to pay for a cab. Guy says no, calls his girlfriend she won’t pick him up because of the baby. He says he won’t drive, walks off, gets in his car, does 80 mph down a side road and gets busted for dui. Offered a free cab ride home. Fucked up his life, could have killed someone.
