Let me share a secret with you, Mr. Bender. The object is to remain UPRIGHT. Falling is frowned upon and it makes you feel foolish when it happens. I was being careful when I fell too. You feel even more foolish when you can't use the excuse that you weren't paying attention.

You feel even more foolish when you can't use the excuse that you were drunk at the time........

I have a plate and screws in my ankle because I didn't bother turning a light on one evening and tripped over my portable sewing machine that I had placed on the floor earlier. Had I been drinking I would have at least had the presence of mind to turn on the danged light.......

Talk about feeling foolish.......
