Tenx9 Nashville // August 2026: “Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time”

Happy 13th birthday to Tenx9 Nashville!

For this night, we will revisit a theme we love: Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time.

We’ve all had that moment. The plan sounded solid. The logic checked out. What could possibly go wrong?

Quite a lot, apparently.

This month at Tenx9, tell us about the decisions that made perfect sense right up until they absolutely did not. The impulsive purchase. The ill-advised road trip. The person you definitely should not have dated. The shortcut that took twice as long. The prank, the dare, the business idea, the haircut, the “one more drink.”

Maybe it ended in disaster. Maybe it somehow worked out. Maybe it was hilarious, maybe heartbreaking. Maybe, knowing everything you know now, you’d actually do the whole ridiculous thing again.

Bring us your miscalculations, questionable judgment, spectacular backfires, and gloriously bad ideas. True stories about those moments when all you can really say in your defense is:

It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Pitch your story idea here.
