Category: Let's talk
Hi, All!
I thought it'd be fun to have a topic where people can chat about their most embarrassing moments. CHildish, yes, but who cares?
Okay, well, i have a lot. Probably the worst one was when I was in Pre-School and had to go to the bathroom, but I wanted to paint a picture so I just waited in line and held it. THen I finally got in front and started painting, and I accidentally peed all over the floor. It makes me cringe thinking about it, because ... well it was just so embarrassing ...
So ... how about you?
Enjoy!
Caitlin
well, I had not such things like that... but, I know you'll laugh at this. I was at school, hum 3RD grade. I always like to tap my feef if I am excited for something. So the teacher said the next week, we didn't go to school. And as always, I did tap my feet in the floor; however, I haven't noticed my right shoe was untie! and happened, that it flew directly to my teachers feet. At that moment, the lunch bell ran! Everyone was running oh noooo! my shoe! then, the teacher yelled: "who'se shoe is this!" everyone did laugh, even me! I was stupid enough to don;t say it before! lol!
thats embarrasing
Good topic. I look forward to reading lots of interesting stories. I have done so many embarrassing things that it is hard to pick out just one. But one that I was reminded of a few days ago comes to mind now. A few years ago I was waiting for a friend to pick me up to go to a movie. She is always running late, so I was waiting at the door. I had enough vision then to see a car pull up and could tell it was a dark colored car, which my friend has. Since the car sat there with the motor running, and it was the right color, I went out, walked down the sidewalk and got into the passenger seat. I looked to my left to say something to my friend and saw a complete stranger looking back. I apologized and explained that I was waiting for a friend who was late and that her car looked the same. She just laughed and said it was okay. I sheepishly got out and walked back to my door.
well, this seems like everyone is embarassed to post here. JK
C'mon folks! This is a great topic. I know that everyone has had embarrassing moments whether related to your visual impairment or something completely different. So fess up!
yeah folks, face it! lol
Duuuude, I was hanging on The Zone and I saw this topic, I'd completely forgotten I'd started it on account of like no one was posting lol!
CatLover how come that woman had been sitting near your house if she didn't know you hahaha that was funny.
And Lou yours was great too.
Well one other thing I do a lot if I'll be talking on and on and the person'll walk away and I'm talking to a wall. Or else someone will say hi and I don't know it's to me and I won't answer, or else it isn't for me at all and I start talking I did that one today hahahahaa.

I've had a few embarassing moments as I'm sure everyone has. Here are a few I can think of. I was singing in a school play and felt like I had to fart and didn't want to do that, so I stood there clenching my ass and trying my best to keep a straight appearance, but it felt awful! I was at camp back in 97 and for the talent show, I was going to do this pantomime routine acting out thingy to Metallica's Master of Puppets and to dress like an evil puppet master, there was this black body suit in the costume section in the back. The support underwires stuck out too much, so I took them out and figured I'd still have support up front if ya know what I mean. Well, I didn't have enough and I went to open and spread out my arms in this grand motion and felt like my boobs were gonna fall out, so I clenched them in tight with my upper arms and tried as best I could to continue the routine with the rest of my arms, but I felt so bad. Then, a few years later, I had been going through a phase writing erotic poetry about Lars Ulrich, the drummer of Metallica who I had a crush on. I had a folder labelled private poems that was in the back of my regular poem binder, and after a church function where I read a regular poem, Mom was flipping through and suddenly I saw she was looking past the folder. I was surrounded by little old church ladies and I was red-faced and gritted my teeth and was like "Uhh... Mom... uhh... those are my... uhh... private poems." We both laughed it off afterwards though.
Hi cat lover, I've gotten into the wrong car one time myself. The most embarrassing thing that keeps happening to me, if I'm out in public and someone is near to me and they're on their cell phone, and they say hows it goin or something else, and I reply or unwittingly involve myself in their private conversation, and they very sharply say, hey, I'm on the phone. Oh, Melodica I've had a few times when i've been at a meeting or facilitating a presentation and had to fart real bad.
Ugh I hate the cell phone syndrome, it has happened to me so many times!! I just don't talk anymore unless someone actually acknowledges me directly.
I also do weird things when I'm shopping. Recently we were going by some store and it was playing this awesome song that was on an album I have, and it wasn't even the single. So I was just jumping around and dancing and being happy about it, my friends were trying to get me to calm down because apparently a bunch of people were staring at us. It's awful.
Months ago, my bf, my guide dog (Cedar,) and I had gotten on a bus to go somewhere, and right when we got to where we were going to sit, Cedar decides to drop a load. Talk about imbarrassing as hell, and the fact that nearly everyone on the bus was commenting on it wasn't helping anything.
I got it cleaned up though and we disposed of it, and the bus driver had to clean the spot on the flor, but he didn't seem to have any complaints about it which was always good.
I do that sometimes, when someone is talking to someone else and I answer before I relize that they're not talking to me. So now I usually won't answer unless someone directly gets my attention either.
Two embarressing moments I've had, which were actually pretty funny for me, was when I was in 3rd grade and had slid down the stairs and fell sitting down. *laughs* My teacher and classmates seemed really worried, but I was laughing. Another time, 7th grade, a friend had took me to sit down in the classroom during a movie, and I missed the chair. I was stunned for a second, but I thought it was funny also. *smiles* And actually, that also happened to me during high school, when another blind friend had offered me to sit down. I guess she thought I had noticed the chair but I didn't and went straight down. Her sighted friend was all worried, but me and my friend were laughing a lot. *smiles*
And I had also done something embarrassing to that friend, totally by accident. When going out the side door of my house, you have to turn right, to go down the stairs. But assuming my friend knew to turn (because she'd been to my house before), I just went down the stairs, and she went straight, off the porch. *laughs* Again, we were both laughing, while my sister and parents were worried when they saw it. (But they started laughing when they saw nothing had happened.) She had walked right off and landed on her feet and had a stunned/puzzled look on her face before she had relized what she had done. I felt embarrassed for not reminding her to turn after the door, but we still always laugh about that. *smiles*

I think the most embarassing moment I had was thwn I was, I think, fortten.
At the time, I had a BF, and I had what they call Vergin Lips. I'd not kissed anyone before, but I felt like I really wanted to because I thought I felt close... yeah right...
Well, I was at a summer camp for the blind, and there was being held a formal dance. I went with my "BF", and we had planned to maybe go somewhere so no one would see us and just peck each other once on the lips.
Well, the time came when we were counting to three, and as soon as it happen, someone behind us in the distance wistled that lovey-dovey wistle that you hear sometimes.
Well, after that, I was really feeling stupid for it, and I ran quickly to my dorm. When I got there, however, a bunch of guys were gathered round and singing "Good Night, Sweetheart" and I nearly died.
The worst thing about it is that I thought someone had taken a picture of us! *Which was just a rumor*
To my former BF, sorry... had to talk about it... it as funny... incase you should happen to read this post!
Laugh with me too!
I went head 1st into a swimming pool id managed to avoid falling in to since aged 9!
My Italian family thought this was hilarious and jumped right in they ribbed me for weeks afterwards and i felt like a right eejit.
Ive also chatted up a nativity figure while very drunk
she was not impressed.
smile
I had 2 embarrassing moments at a camp for the handicapped. I had woken up about a half hour or so before revelee, and we had these tables, or rather nightstands by our beds. We kept our stuff in them, and it had rollers, but it didn't roll very well. I was trying to pull it far away from the bed so I could get inside it, and the thing toppled over. The nightstand was made out of tin, so It hit the floor with a loud bang! of course it woke everybody up instantly, and there were 2 deaf girls there, but one of them had a little bit of hearing. One of the counselors said, I guess you heard that didn't you? She just said, yeah.
There was another time when a counselor was leading me to the next activity, and I bumped into something, and since I bumped in to a few people who didn't get out of the way fast enough, I just assumed I bumped into someone, and automatically said, excuse me. A counselor said, "you just excused yourself to mister post. It was a little embarrassing, but that fence post was nicer than most people, hahaha.

I was in the airport with a friend and we were at the check in desk. This person asked me if I had any bags. I said, "no mam," and there was an awkward silence. My friend said "that's a guy," low enough for me to hear. I blushed and apologized. He was cool about it saying, "It's ok. I have kind of a high voice." I was so embarrased!
Oh that can be really embarrassing. I've occasionnally come across both men and women, a few in person, a few invoice chat rooms where I couldn't tell, or be absolutely sure if they were a man or woman. Either the man's voice is higher than normal, or a woman's voice is deeper than normal, and of course, if you can hear their voice, you can't just come right out and say, hey are you a man or a woman?
wonderwoman
yeah, I've done that before, it was soooo embarrassing! I mean the one where I say "excuse me" or "sorry" to a post or a wall...or a chair... anyway. We were at, like, a kind of fair type thing, and my mom was ready to go home. Well, so, I go up to this person, whom I thought to be my mom, (they had the same texture pants on), and grab on to their pocket. Then, for some reason, I realize this isn't my mom, appoligize, and run back yelling, "mom!" and I was, like, in kindergarten...lol. alison
Oh that must've been really embarrassing. Once a lady I knew and her husband came to take me to a christmas party. We lived next door to my grandmother, and when both grandparents were alive, they had a great big huge dog, part boxer, part german shepherd. I was afraid of dogs, terrified of them in fact, and my hand touched something fury, and I jerked it back like I had touched a hot stove and cried, the dog! it turned out to be her fur coat, and we all had a laugh about it later.
Lol Alison, I've had an experience like yours. Once I was at an amusement park with some friends, and I was walking with my friend Michae, who had a sweatshirt on. So we were ready to move, and I reached out and grabbed an arm, which had a sweatshirt on it, and started walking away, when the mom who was with us yelled, "Caitlin!", and I realized i'd grabbed a random person. Lol! One time, in teh pool, I sat down on my dad's lap, and he tried to trick me by going, in a really weird voice, "Excuse me, little girl, are you looking for your father?", which totally freaked me out. Lol! I waso nly about six. I've also done the man and woman thing, missing a chair, talking to people when they're not talking to me, etc etc. Lol. Awesome stories. I love them. Oh and I've said sorry to so many material objectss when bumping into them ,I dont' remember. And I've touched things I thought were threats wen they weren't too. Lol.
Caitlin
lol lets see. I haven't said "excuse me" to a thing or post, or chair. But... the most embarrasing moments are when you accidentally get a wrong person. I had quite a good time reading all these postst, and seriously, laughed a bit. But mine was that I was in a store with my mom. I was like 7 and there were two woman. Fortunately they were old... when my mom was pying something she bought, I thought she was on a chair. Warning1 you ain't going to believe this! lol... well, I just touched one of the women and as it felt like my mom's wearing clothes for that day I just came like a baby and hughed her. Instead of being quiet, the woman just said "oh, how cute!" but... aaaaaaaah! it was soooo embarrasing! well and about the voice confusing it rarely had happened to me... but when miistaking with people is the worse thing. And, I remember also that one of my teacher was saying me good bye. He brabbed my hand and did shake it. But, I accidentally........ touched him in the wrong area. I think he didn't even knew, and I hope so. Lol and it has happened to me with a lot of people, unfortunately most of them had noticed it, but don't say anything, but I feel soooooooooooooo, soooo embarrasing!...
Lol oh yeah. One of the most embarrassing things for me is when I try to shake another blindie's hand, and they either don't put it out, or we're fumbling around like fools trying to find one another's hands! Lol! or worse yet, if you touch them in the wrong place, which thankfully hasn't happened to me.
Caitlin
And Lou your story was funny but cute hehe.
Caitlin
no, not cute! ha ha
You're right, not cute. Adorable! Lol!
Caitlin
tou{ew vS! LOL
well I guess my fingers were burning and were one letter to the right. What I ment to say was you are bad, caitlin! lol
Tkaes one to know one, Lou. Evil grin.
Caitlin
Lol wow these kinds of stories rule! .. I loooved Catlovers about the car! man I'd sooo wanna die!
I have been racking my brains during reading these, and I can relate to all these, .. i've wet my pants when I was in grade 1 cos I was too shy to shout any louder that I needed to be excused. and I was the first one to ever do it in the gym of RVIB (blindy campus of royal Victorian Institute for the blind - so how's that for a proud milestone :) .. in the 60 years or so that it's been around, me being the first one! Lol Yes, and I have spoken to other guys who I thought were my Dad cos he just walks off and doesn't tell me he's going, then cracks up about it later while I'm still as red as ever! Lol .. have bumped into posts, stuck my cane inbetween people's legs and lifted their dresses up, etc. grabbed people in the wrong spot ... me me me ...
When I was younger, I was running along the street with Mum and a car drove past and I shouted "hello car" and a guy goes "hello" had his window open, didn't realize.
When i was in about grade five, I thought I had this thing for my next-door neighbour who was in my class too. .. Well, one of my friends and I were talking, in this particular cubbyway and I, thinking Chris was not there (but knew he had been) said "I want to feel his touch - I believed in that sorta stuff - and I sitll do" and my friend Amanda was like "um, he's still there".
I know I've had way more but I can't remember anything else. I get embarrassed very easily as a rule so block a lot of stuff out Lol
of course the obvious .. when I've told someone of my feelings for them over email or something, I am always so embarrassed after I get an email back and it takes me hours to get the courage to open it Lol ..
i will try and think of a unique-2-RdFreak one. :)
cheers! :)
Lol Rachel! Teehehehe, can't wait to hear more?
Caitlin
hehe yeah! let me see...embarrasing moments...thinking . . . thinking . . . ...thinking ... loading . . . loading . . . can't find any! he.
another for you guys. When I was 7, I was in front of a little room or local, or store and there was a a hole with a bunch of little rocks inside it. It was right beside the sidewalk, so I grabbed one. a woman, which was a friend was waiting for me. One card past, and I did throw a rock, shich hit the back glass! I ran towards my friend and she grabbed my arm. Both were running! aaah! and, then, the man asked""whose this?" my friend, with a scared or nervous voice said "sorry, he cannot see, sorry" well the man just closed the window and left of. And, worst of all, it was a taxy! lol. i don{t remember others for now. oh, I do! yes, wait! lol well I was chating with a friend in msn. But, it was not my friend and I started joking at the person who was in the other side of the chatroom, and well, they got mad at me and I finally noticed that my friend wasn{t there, aww! lol
Lol Lou, you're practically a murderer! You could've killed the people in the taxi. Hahhaaha just joking ...
It's been interesting reading all of these stories. Some I can relate too and others not so. I don't think I've had too many embarrassing moments in my life, so far anyway! LOL.
All of the ones that do spring to my mind are things that have happened to other people. Especially this one lad that I used to go to college with called Neil. I can only assume that he was either highly accident prone or just too stupid to know when he was going too far. Knowing him as well as I do now I suspect the latter. He was Irish after all. LOL
I do remember on one occasion being out with him when he, 'did a Becky', ooooo, nice new colloquialism perhaps? Anyway, he and I were waiting out the back of McDonald's for a taxi after a shopping trip and a car pulled up to the curb. Now I, being sensible, was waiting to see if a driver got out to ask if we were who he was here to pick up but not Neil. He promptly opened the back door and attempted to hop in, imagine his surprise when, he with one foot still firmly planted on the pavement outside, the car suddenly pulled away from the curb at high speed. We none too cleverly deduced afterward that the car wasn't a taxi at all. At the time of course it was highly amusing though in hindsight you can't help but feel a little for the poor unsuspecting driver who must have wondered if he or she was being car jacked or something! LOL.
I do recall another incident, Neil again, who found a cup of old milk that, for reasons unknown, had been left sitting on a window of one of the rooms that we were boarding in at the time while at college. Now I don't know how long the milk had been sitting there curdling, safe to say though that it had been a number of days judging from the unpleasant whiff emanating from it. Now of course any normal person upon making such a discovery would immediately turn their thoughts to the disposal of such a foul smelling thing, and possibly Neil would have had just such thoughts accept that just at that moment he heard below him, the voice of a guy whom earlier on in the year had fallen out with him, something about a girl if memory serves, but anyway, our intrepid college equivalent to a village idiot, unhesitatingly upended the cup of rancid milk all over the head of the person below. Unfortunately for him, the person who actually got soaked wasn't his enemy at all, he was safely stood a few feet away, instead he managed to pour it all over the head of a woman who had the justifiable title of queen bitch of the college. No other than the woman in charge of one of the halls of residence in fact! LOL. To give her credit I think she did actually take the drenching in reasonably good spirits.
I'll have to go away now and see if I can't think of anything I've done that was overly embarrassing though. Nothing is springing to mind at the moment however maybe a good nights sleep will help.
Dan.
baby, wasn't it embarrasing enough when the first time you met my grandparents you ripped one in the car? oh y gosh it stunk so bad. lol. we were all laughing and rolling down our window. ehhehe but i'm sure it did't embarrass you. actually thinking of it now, you were quite proud of that one. hehehehe smiles
oh yeah, and the time you jumped into a wall? hmm? come one you know you have moments. hehehe! mine would be when I went blind in 2000! i was in the hospital, and this male nurse came in and wanted to put a I V in my arm andalso take my blood pressure, so yeah, i put my arm out and he says to make a fist. not realizing it, i make a fist ad um squeeze a place i shouldn't have. i didn't know what to say my face was insantly red, so i said should i take your blood pressure now? hehehe another time was when this male nurse came in and wanted to help me with a bath, i'm like um not knowing how to tel him, i din't feel comfortable with a male nurse helping me, i'm like um nooo thanks. heheh later my mom thinking she is funny tells him why i keep saying no. heheh so the next time he comes in the room, he says it's janet do you want to take a shower. hehehe he tried to make his voice sound like a woman. hehehhe i'm like um no i can't remember his name. heheh so every time he came in the room after that, he changed his name and wanted to give me a bath. hehehehe
and my last one for now, i was having a M R I done and the guy before we started, asked me if i have anything metal or any surgeries. i'm like no. they do the test and he comes out and says are you sure you havne't had any surgeries. i'm like um, no! so yeah, he looks at my mom and says hmm then what is this. my mom thinking she is funny says oh that's where mister happy went. oy, lol i just laughed, but it was my I u d, which is a form of birth control for those of you that don't know. hehehe hehehehhehe. the guy couldn't stop laughing at what my mom said, and what it really was. hehehehe
lol. that grandparents thing was great!

damn, you that short? grin
shush you weren't supposed to notice that.. hehehehe smiles
Well, I've had my share of embarrassing moments. A few years ago, I was asleep, and was dreaming about a chocolate chip cookie I was about to eat. When I was asleep, I sat up and picked up my pillow and was holding it. My mom asked me if I wanted to go to the bathroom. I said, after I eat this first. What I meant was after I ate the pillow. I was half asleep, so I didn't know what was going on. Another moment happened the other day. There was this show at the fair where people could come and sing and people at the fair could come and listen. I thought I knew the song. When the music played, I was waiting to hear the words before I could start singing. People started shouting and clapping and singing along. Then, it dawned on me that the song didn't have words. I didn't know the song after all. That was quite embarrassing.
Well, As many have said, there are way too many in my life. The longer we live and do things in public, the greater the chances we're going to have embarrassing moments. One that comes to mind that was both embarrassing and potentially dangerous was after someone suggested I learn how to incorporate gesures into my speech. I was in downtown Baltimore, and was pretty sure where I was going. I just didn't know exactly which way to turn when was trying to find the library. I saw one person come up and asked "is the library that way or that way?" I gestured both left and right, but on the second that way, I punched a passer-by in the jaw. Thank God, I had my cane, and backed up appologizing all the way. I haven't tried gesturing since.

That is fantastic! I went to school with Neil, and that post just sums him up completely! He's such a crazy bugger! Are you still in touch with him?
I think the funniest, but definitely not the most embarrassing, thing that's ever happened to me happened when I was 8. I was in spain, and my oh so sensible granny sent me to get ice cream from the bar. What she didn't tell me was that there was a swimming pool in between me and the bar. So in I went, in my little 8-year-old cotton dress. My granny was so concerned for my well-being that, when I got out, this feeling of concern prompted her to say..... "You've ruuined that dress!"
Another funny incident was when I was out shopping. I'm very intollerant of people who bump into me at high speed when i've got signs of my crippledness, ahem, I mean blindness, on show. This particular day, I was with my PA. We'd just finished work and Oxford was heaving. So I got the old tapper out, as it seems to work as well as Moses' staff did at parting crowds. Anyway, we wer moving along at a right old clip when this rude person hit me so hard that it knocked the breath out of me. In the middle of the pedestrian part of Oxford, the busiest part in the whole city, I turned round, and shouted "rude" after the hurrying person. The whole place went really quiet, and my PA hurried me away. WWhen we got further down the street, he had to stop because he was laughing so hard. The person I had hit was a tree! Oh what fun that day was. I've never looked at that tree the same way since!
Aw'w'w, my, gawd! That is a classic. Loads better than me sending all those bliminng baskets flying in Waterstones. Mum happened to be guiding me. She also happened to be guiding me when a not-so-funny embarrassing thing happened in HMV where mum was guiding both me and a friend and she smacked me right in to one of those marble pillars. Ouwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhwhchy! Now I know what Harry Potter's forehead felt like when Voldemort was getting at him through his scar, lollol.
oh man. the worst thing i had happen at work was one day we moved to a new office and i thought the ladies room was one place but actually I walked into the men's room and ran right into my male boss who casually said you're in the wrong bathroom. Needless to say I had my girlfriend make absolutely sure the next time i went to the bathroom I knew where the ladies room was instead of the men's room.
I had that happen today at school. I accidentally walked into the men's room.
What? How the hell to you attend a school and walk into the men's room. I mean, it's somewhat understandable in an unfamiliar setting, though not really. But, in a school that you've been attending?
It can happen if you're not paying attention to the voices coming out the door you've just opened.
Well, maybe. But, don't you usually pay attention to more than voices when walking? And, if you're not sure, don't you check signs?
embarrassing moments lets see. I think a big one was when I was trying to catch a plain and the name on the reservation and the name on my id were totally different. i had to be searched and everything. Another was in the airport when i saw my sister after i don't know how long. When she saw me she started balliing her eyes out. and then i started and then my dad. Ok thatt was both embarrassing and required. and another moment witch I blame the taxi driver for was one morning i was going to my summer job and he got pulled over by the cops! No I'm not kidding! So I had to call my boss and tell her that we hadn't even gotten on the highway yet.
one time I was out with my mom for lunch, the waitress asked my mom, what does he want, and I said if you can't me directly then we don't need to eat here. boy I got yelled at but got my point across. another one was I was in bush gardens flordia, after riding a water ride we were getting off and I Hit the top of my head on a pole that was by the ride. I hit that pole so hard, that I fell back into the boat. Man I was mad at my brother because he didn't tell me it was their. Laughter reined until people saw my cane later.
hahahehehehehehehehehehahahahahahahah ahahahahahahahaheheheheheheheheh hahahahahahahahehehehehahahah!
I was at my friend's wedding last saturday, and I went ot hug the bride, but ended up hugging the person in front of me in the recption line. God, I was embarrassed.
I remember one fine day when mom was taking me to grandma's house. Mom gave me a hug. She didn't say anything. I said, I love you grandma, and it wasn't grandma. It was mom.
Well, speaking of hugs, I hadn't ben working at the place where I work too long. This woman came over to me and said "Hi Lou." I thought it was a woman named Sandy that I hadn't seen for a number of years. I gave her this huge bearhug and exclaimed, "Sandy! Its been so long since I've seen you." Everything was misshapen, missized, and displaced, and I knew then it wasn't Sandy. Luckilly, the lady in question had a good sensse of humor. I'd been there less than a week.

When I first started working where I work now, there were two female co-workers who had similar voices and were both about the same height and both had blond hair. I had some vision then so could see some basic features about people. But it took me forever to keep them straight and was always calling each of them by the other's name.
lmfao post 56
I'm bored so I got a couple. I don't get embarrassed easily, but I used to get embarrassed easily around women. I'm in this martial arts class, and this girl used to be in it, well we were doing a bit of training with wooden swords. We started walking back into the padded wrestling room where we do unarmed, full-contact training, and I was repositioning my sword, and it swung out in front of me and smacked this girl right on the top of the head. I felt like such an ass.
Only other time I can really remember being embarrased was when I was in college and I had gotten almost no sleep the night before, so I was walking half asleep and I slammed head first into a pole and almost fell into a planter thing. Luckily there was noone around accept my math teacher but I pride myself on my sense of direction and orientation, so I felt like a complete idiot there.
Okay so I was in second grade, and was feeling bad all morning. I got to school, took off my snow boots to put on my tennis shoes, and was putting on my shoes when I threw up _everywhere! it was so embarrassing!
Last week, I was recording a song with my pacmate. Not knowing dad was home, he heard me singing. I was so embarrassed! I get embarrassed somewhat easily.
One time I was at a Christmas Eve church service. Communion was served. I went with my friend down the center aisle. There he received his piece of bread, I was handed mine and my dog guide casually reached up and grabbed the rest of the loaf! I could have died!
Bad doggie. lol hope the rest went' okay. I've spoken to thin air on a number of occasions, not knowing that someone had walked away from me.
I've done that plenty of times.
One time, we were watching a home movie of when we brought my sister home. At that time in the movie, I was singing songs about the internet, email and so on. I was 11 when we made the movie, but I was 16 when I watched it. I embarrassed myself.
One time, I called my ISP because my email was suspended. I called not knowing that they neded the 3 digit customer code that was at the top of the bill. I told the lady that answered the phone that my parents pay the bill and I didn't know the code. They wanted a social security number, so I gave them mine. She said that they couldn't find that number, and they wanted my mom's social security number which I didn't know. I said I'd call back later with the information. It was embarrassing!
What's so mortifying about that/
Ok I have a few...
One day at about the age of eight we went to the barn to groom the horses. It was winter so we weren't going to do much riding but went to pet and groom the horses just give them some attention. I went with my Dad and I had been over by the tack and saddlle section where the kittens usually slept in people's saddle seats or on sattle blankets. I then went out in to the main part of the barn and heard a shaver being used on a horse and I thought it was Dad working on Cheef. I was cold so I went to go give dad a hug. So I said daddy I'm cold and gave a hug to not my father but to the guy who owned the barn Glen. Oopsey.
A few years ago I decided to try getting drunk for the first time in my life when I was with one friend and not at like so scarry party or anything like that. So at first it was just us two at her Dad's place, and I have about four or five glasses of straight vodca. Remember my first time really drinking. I was pretty hammered. I was screaming random things and laying with my head in my friend's lap with my legs in the air.. This isn't the worst part. We went back inside and Bri put me to bed. I told her I thought I'd be sick and she went to get a bucket, but before she got back I went in the bathroom and threw up. Now this next bit is a bit foggy I don't rember if I layed down on the floor or in the bath tub, but about an hour later her father came in the bathroom and found me passed out. He woke me up and was bring me back to the room I was sleeping in. I persisted on hugging him and thanking him perfusely and then hitting on my friend's father. I have never faced that man sense. I'm scared to think Bri might invite me to her wedding one day...
Wow! some of these are really funny. For about 8 years I have taken calls from victims of domestic violence as a volunteer crisis line advocate. I had only been working a few months when in the middle of my shift I got a call from a mother who suspected her child of being molested. I did my best to be calm and reassuring. When it came time for a couple of referrals I gave her the name of an agency who dealt with victims of sexual assualt. so I said "You might want to call the (name of agency). because they have a great sexual assualt problem!" What I meant to say was that they had a great sexual assault program. Whoops!! At least it was a great tension breaker. Both the caller and myself had a nice laugh.
I remember this one time when I thought I was talking to a friend and said something like can you send me some file or other and my sister was like huh? I had my friend on messenger and my sister on the phone.
Shawna, o my gosh! That was funny! I remember one time I was at a restaurant with my best friend. I was trying to find the restroom. I found this dor. Thinking that it was the restroom, I opened it. Little did I know, it was an emergency exit. A loud emergency alarm was ringing throughout the restaurant! A lady that worked there came to see what was wrong. I told her that I opened the door on accident thinking it was the restroom. She stopped the alarm and just lead me to the restroom. That was embarrassing!
Katie it was embarassing at the time but now that I look back on that it was funny!
lol here's one, there was this guy i sort of liked at the beginning of the year. we were just friends though. one day he came over to my table to sit with me and my friends for the first time, well when he was leaving he gave me a hug. I was distracted by what my friends were talking about and not facing him, so i instead of hugging him, i hugged one of his legs and my hand was rite by his crotch! I finally turned around and almost fucking died. omg i couldn't bring myself to talk to him for like the next week....lol
I was at ruby Tuesdays the other day and one of the waiters was helping me across the street to Target. Anyway there was this peace of ice that neither of us noticed and the next thing I was sitting in the middle of the parking lot. That was soooo embarrassing!
Lol!
oh where to begin.
here is a good one.
i was a student at the orientation and ajustment center for the blind in daytona beach a few years ago. i was in the computer room doing something on the internet when all of a sudden i got really hot. so i walk over to the air conditioner thermastat and turn it on. but it was not the thermastat. it was the fire alarm! i was so embarrassed. so i ran outside with everyone else. the head of the dorm was really pissed off at me. she was all like, "pulling the fire alarm when there is not a fire is a federal offence. haven't you ever seen a fire alarm lever before?" i had to admit that no i had not. but now i have a laugh about that time.
here is another one.
when i was reciting my vows to get married to my husband, i was crying. and just after he kissed me after our vows were recited and the justice of the peace pronounced us man and wife, i breathed out of my nose very heavily, and this load of clear snot comes out of my nose. god i was so embarrassed! i do not think anyone saw it though because nothing was said about it.
roflroflrolroflrofl!!!!! this has amde me laugh a whole lot! Ok, lets see.. the latest embarrassing but funny moment happens on stage. There is a song by Erin Coplan which is a medley. At the end of the medley, there is a song named "i bought me a cat". It is mean to be more like a silly children's song because it is stupid: I bought me a cat, my cat pleased me, I fed my cat under yondre tree... My cat says fiddle I feed. So then after all of that there's a duck, a goose, a hen, a pig, a horse, a cow and a wife. It is a silly song indeed. So, the pitch really varies and the part where the horse comes in is supposed to be "my horse says neh, neh." So, i was too distracted and accidentally sing, "my cow say bah, bah." which was a tone an a half higher. Of course it stood and I had most of the choir laughing with me in front of the audience. Man that was embarrassing for sure. Another embarrassing moment happens when i sent an e-mail ranting to someone 'cause they had been really an asshole to me... well for some stupid reason, my screen reader does not correctly identify e-mails in my contacts list and guess what? my school chorus teacher got the e-mail. I am glad i put the name of the person on top of the whole message. I really had a hard time talking my way out of it. I thus learned to always type addresses regardless... see what kinda stuff automation canget you into? lol.
oh no! roflroflroflrofl that had to have been the worst! i bet u wanted to die hehehehe!
