What's your closest tie to idiocy?

I have another really funny story about my two youngest daughters.....

We had gone to Texas to spend time at the coast and decided that we wanted to east seafood since it surely had to be better next to the coast. Well, we were in an area that wasn't heavily populated but we found a place to eat from the brochures in our motel room. When we get there it was a double wide home that had been remodeled into a restaurant and it was very elegant inside.

After we had ordered our food I went to the restroom and in there was a bidet, which I know absolutely nothing about and I knew that my girls were going to ask a lot of questions about. So when I went back to the table I mentioned that there was something in the bathroom that if they had any questions about, I wouldn't know. Which immediately made the girl curious and they had to go and check out.

My daughters at the time were 5 and 15, an interesting age combo!! When they got to the bathroom they were checking out the bidet and the oldest one turned a knob while they were both standing over the bidet and water shot up to the ceiling!!! No joke, there was a wet spot on the ceiling when I checked later!!! The oldest decided that they better go lock the bathroom door so they could get it cleaned up and while she was doing that the youngest decided to turn the knob again!!! I didn't know what was going on but when they came back to the table I looked at my older daughter across the table from me and her hair was wet around her face. I said "You just had to play with it, didn't you?" And she said "At least I didn't get it as bad as her (meaning her little sister)." I looked at my youngest daughter who was sitting on my left and her hair was so wet that her bangs were swiped across her forehead!!!! I just about died laughing and still do even though it's been about 10 years since we did that!!!!
