Stupid Things People Did On Autopilot

Have you ever walked into a room and forgot why you went in there? Have you ever left a bag of groceries on the roof of your car, and then driven away, blissfully unaware of the "thump" of a ham and a dozen eggs strewn all over the parking lot? And when you get home, all you're left to think is "thank god I didn't do that with the baby." Severity may vary, but still, these are the kinds of things we find happening to us when we lose even a little bit of focus going about our daily lives.

The human brain is an amazing computing machine, just as capable of feeling love as it is able to do advanced calculus. It will also make you throw a cup of coffee onto your bed thinking it's your phone. So let's just say that it's a mixed bag. There are some seriously dumb things people have done on auto-pilot.
