That state of consciousness just after you wake up, or at the end of an extremely exhausting day, can cause people to do some rather odd things.

It’s this groggy feeling that is the topic of conversation on Reddit, where user scudzter89 asked their fellows to share the “dumbest thing” they’ve done whilst half asleep – and here are nine of the best answers.

“I once woke up, looked at the clock and thought S***, I AM LATE FOR WORK! THE ALARM DIDN’T GO OFF!.

“I jumped into the shower and was showering as fast as I could when I glanced out the window, and it was dark out.

“It took me a while to process. I had fallen asleep in my bed after work, and it was now 7PM, and not 7AM the next day.”

“Shaved off my eyebrows.

“About 4 years ago at this point, I woke up as normal,showered,and started to shave. About halfway through, I stop and think to myself ‘Somethings wrong here. The f*** did I do?’

“At this point, I noticed that my left eyebrow, and half of my right one, are gone.”
