What is your: "wait, it worked?" story?

Got shitfaced at the bar with my cousin, drove home, hit a pothole that blew out my front passenger tire. The car was two weeks old and new Chevys apparently don't come with a goddamn spare.

So my cousin calls an Uber, and drunk dipshit me wanders off in this random industrial park I had pulled over in. It's December, it's frigid, I forgot where I parked and I'm raging pissed. I go up to this building and grab the park bench outside it, use it as a battering ram and break the glass door to get inside and stay warm.

I knew I fucked up but couldn't find a desk phone in the business so I pulled the fire alarm and sat cross legged with my hands on my head for an hour until the cops showed up with guns drawn. They question me, search the building, ask how I got there. I just kept saying idk I was at the bar and then ended up here somehow.

They take me down to the station, I'm sobering up enough to joke around with dude taking my fingerprints and asking what stuff is for in the station trying to at least make the best of it. They put me in the drunk tank for a couple hours and call me a taxi around 5AM.

Bro when I found my car later that day it was literally in the next parking lot over from the business I broke into. I was in shock like omg these fucking idiots didn't even see the car next door in an industrial park on a Saturday night how did I pull this off!

All I ended up with was having to pay for the door...for a company that makes hinges and doors.

TL;DR - got drunk, broke a plate glass door, should have gotten a DUI but cops thought I was a noob who got rolled at the bar by locals

Built my first computer a few months ago and the motherboard was DOA. Got it replaced and when I plugged all the components into the new one, it didn't turn on at all. Called the store, they couldn't help. Said that it was brand new and tested to be working. It was already night and I was tired af. So I just put everything into the case and idk how but suddenly my mind thought of turning it on to see if it works. And it turned on! Later after a few days, it turned out that it was actually the monitor's fault ugh.

I somehow managed to put a ryzen 5 in a japanese ps2 and make it work

I broke my glasses when I was 11 I think, I remember me and my parents trying to super glue them and it worked. We were all surprised.

Somebody broke a key in a storage room

I not only got the key out with pliers and a nail (somebody had inserted clay into the lock)

I then picked the lock, never done lockpicking irl and hate it in videogames

Remote work: Asking a store manager to reboot his PC after it showed no hard drive found on the boot up the screen.

Reboot worked. I moved ALL data off the PC and got 100% of the documents off and was working on URLs and pictures (no that important) and it officially DIED again.

Wonderful day.

When my eleven year old computer launched a RAM intensive MC mod pack with 300+ mods. The requirements were eight gigs minimum RAM, I did it with two. The game ran at twenty fps for a good twenty minutes, then my PC hit me with a "fatal system error and shut off.
