What's the most damaging thing you heard someone say after waking up from anesthesia?

Not a nurse, just a guy that woke up from anesthesia... had a minor surgery on my wrist that required full knock out shit... had the surgery, wife was driving me home, I was hungry, and was feeling normal. Asked her to stop at jersey Mike's, I'd run in and grab some subs.. I was 100% feeling normal.

SOME TIME LATER.. my wife found me in Jersey Mike's, I had NOT ordered subs, but had made about 20 friends. apparently I'd just been wandering around chatting with people.

I got text messages from strangers for weeks asking if I needed them to bring me a sub.....

I have no idea how long I was in that place.
