Sudden Realization

[The Funslinger]

Mine would be this:

I'm currently doing my GCSEs, and each day I've had an exam thus far, I've had a nightmare the previous night, without fail. So I had the customary amount of snacks and such with my friend this afternoon that always goes with retro gaming (Super Mario and the like) and I was pretty stuffed, and yet I caught myself grabbing a biscuit after he left. Then I had most of a portion of Haddock and Chips, and then I realized, the stress is making me eat. Fortunately, I have a metabolism that would make the teenage girls of the world turn feral with jealousy, and I'm exercising for a future military career, so it's all good! Still a slightly disturbing prospect, though.

So what bursts of sudden realization have occurred throughout your lives?

Today:

Seeing as how I hate column chromatography, imagine how I feel when I have to do three in quick succession. And then a penny drops... the product is a FUCKING LIQUID. So, I just wasted five hours doing something I could've accomplished in twenty minutes.

A little while ago my room mate came home super drunk. I went downstairs and got some people to take care of him and sat talking with a friend for the next couple hours. Afterwards I realized that I had almost completely shut down on all, but the most basic functions of speech during my time there. The realization being that I cannot be around drunk people.

Well the most recent one was yesterday when I realised it's 2011 now. I thought it was still 2010.
Unemployment does this to you.
