   Aaron said, "I can't believe all the stupid things I've done in my life. When I was a kid, I licked a metal ice cube tray. Of course, my tongue stuck to the tray. I panicked. I pulled the tray off my tongue. It started bleeding like crazy. I'm lucky I can even talk normally. Another time, I decided 1 to fix my Dumbo ears. Every day, I pressed both ears repeatedly against my head. Eventually, of course, I broke the cartilage in them. After that, they stuck out even more than they used to. The first car I bought had a 'Salvaged 2' certificate. How stupid was that? I spent $10,000 on repairs before I just gave it away." Aaron's cousin said, "You're doing something else that's pretty stupid." Aaron asked, "I am? What's that?" His cousin said, "You're telling someone about the stupid things you've done. How stupid is that?"
