What is the most bizarre thing you've caught yourself doing after your brain's autopilot misfired?

Using the phones flashlight to find your phone to use the find my phone app to find your phone to use your flashlight to find your phone. But then you need your phone to use the flashlight except, well...you can't fucking find it. So you ask your friend Rob, you say "hey, rob, mate, can I use your phone? I can't seem to find my phone and I want to use the flashlight on yours to see if I can find mine" but Rob, man. Robs fucked. Rob has been looking for his phone the entire time as well. He's on bloody fucking Tims phone using the flashlight to find it. Tim's using Robs phone to find his because they're fucking idiots. So you, you're like "Oi, I got a fucking idea. Oh this is fucking brilliant. I'll just call your phone and then we'll find it" but wait, you don't know where yours is. Suzie comes strolling fucking along and asks what the lot of you are doing. You say that you're looking for your phones. She points down at your cellphone in your hand. You feel like a fucking idiot. But then you mention how Tim and Rob can't find theirs and again she points down at their hands and they realize they're holding each others phones and they feel like fucking idiots. Wow. Problem solved. Thanks Suzie. She always did have her head on straight, din't she? Well anyway, what the fuck were you doing again in the first place? Oh, you wanted to see what times Neighbors 2 was playing. But honestly, after all of that searching, the three of you are kind of just mentally exhausted. You decide to go home and part ways because let's face it- You're kind of just tired and feel like an idiot. You drive home, change into your pjs and get in bed. You laugh to yourself about how silly it all was before. You're about to drift off to sleep when suddenly Tim calls. "yeah?" you ask.
