Thread: Most embarressing moments.


Bottom of Page    Message Board > The Green Dragon > Most embarressing moments.   
Well, OK....my kind of thread. I'm always doing stupid stuff. Mostly involving falling or spraining my ankle. But two that have nothing to do with either and they were particularly embarrassing.

When I was in high school, I worked in a pizza place part time, and one day I was stocking up the refrigerated coolers in the kitchen where we built the pizzas. I had to go downstairs in the basement to get some stuff to bring up and get ready to use.

There was a deepfreeze chest freezer down there, and I needed stuff in the bottom of it. I leaned over and flopped myself into position such that I didn't fall in? But had NO leverage to pull myself back out. Now is the time that I must tell you that I am SHORT and have a big butt~! My coworker, a pretty young thing a year behind me in school, wondered what was taking me so long and went to check on me because she needed the stuff I was getting! When she found me, I was a kicking flutter of short dumpy legs and butt, none of the rest of me was to be seen, and I was freezing my face off! When she stopped laughing, picked herself off the floor, because she was indeed ROTF to hear her tell everyone later...she yanked on my feet and pulled me out!

Another story? OK. Mostly the same people in this story because I was from a small town. We were on our way from a speech competition...it's like competitive reading and oration. We had done well, and the teacher pulled over on the way home at an ice cream place. The foyer was a double door thing, like you see at McDonalds. You open one door, and then another door to get in. WELL...the second door was not lined up with the first door, it was in fact a 90 degree turn to use it. And the window in front of me was very clean! So I proceeded to bonk right into the window while my friends watched it all happen along with everyone in the ice cream place!!

Jeez. I seem to be the comic relief sometimes without even trying! But not to worry, I'm wiping tears of laughing now even as I type, so you can laugh TOO!

U wiping tears of laughter! God! I think I`m gonna drown in the pool of laughing tears! I can`t stop laughing!

How tall r u exactly and r u sure u don`t need ur eyes checked? Wink Smilie ROFL! I need to go outside and splash some water over myself to try and like, stop myself laughing...
Lol, that's funny musicimprovedme!

My most embarrassing thing I've done in front of friends would be when I was walking home and saw a car that looked exactly like my grandpa's. So, thinking he was there to pick me up, I ran up to the passenger door, opened it, hopped in and buckled up. I turned to say hi to my grandpa, only to realize it wasn't my grandpa, but an old man who looked like him! I was SO embarrassed! I asked what his address was, and sent him an apology card explaining myself! My friends won't let me live it down!

My other one I can't say on this site. Wink Smilie
lol Andrea! I can`t believe u did that! I wouldn`t let u live that done either, c, u can tell ur children then to make sure it`s ur grandad b4 they get in the car.

But there is a serious side to that apart from funny, u gotta be careful if that happens coz u don`t know who could be in the car...and u don`t know wot could happen.

But the funny side, I hope I recover in the morning from laughing so much! Big Smile Smilie

~Shazz~
haha! i remember that andrea! u were brite red all the way home! Big Laugh Smilie
When I was in my high school band, we marched in a parade at the County Seat. After the parade we had a half-hour to get back to the school bus for the ride back to our school which was in session that day. Anyway three of us boys went to buy something to eat and when we got back to where the bus was parked, it was gone. Shocked Smilie

There we were, thirteen miles from our home town with no form of public transportation available and facing detention, if we ever made it back to school. Got The Blues Smilie

Fortunately, one of our number knew that the County Sheriff was a good guy. We called him up and he had one of his Deputies drive us back to school. Cool Smilie

We were only twenty minutes late to class and because we had used our initiative and found a way back to school before our parents were notified that we had again messed up, the Principle only gave us a good tongue lashing instead of the detention that we deserved. Look Around Smilie

I have one quite like that, but I can't say it here. I can't really think of my most embarassing moment, but be sure I'll get back to you when I do.
Mine is I was walking down the hall at school with my friends, and some idiot came out of no-where, pulled my pants down and ran away. Lighening Smilie Very Evil Smilie
Lol, poor Dark! I f I was in your shoes I'd track him down and think of something worst to do back to him. Forgiveness is good, but revenge is great!
I probavly would've tried to get him on the spot, but he was really quick.

[Edited on 12/8/2003 by Dark_Duelist]

LOL plus how can you run when your pants are around your ankles???
lol, I`ve had to do that once...

I wasn`t going to say this one...but, I was talking to a boy I liked, flirting if u like and my skirt fell down, I tried pulling it up quick, but then I needed to unbutton the botton and pull down the ip to get it back up, so I just had to run off, with my skirt around my ankles...It made it worse when I fell over when I ran off...

I was sooooooo embarressed! Oh and there is something that`s embarressing that I can`t say on here which made me even more embarressed, I think I looked a bit like a cherry by now...

Oh yeah, something happened to me the other day and I don`t think I can really put this one on here really...sry. Big Smile Smilie
omg Sheryl,thats too bad! I hate when that happensWink Smiliewell it dont happen much to me,usually I get my pants or shirt pulled down plenty of times though. I have some really embarressing moments when things like that has happend,but all are too personal to tell the world. I am certainly enjoying all these ridiculous storys though!
-LadyFeawen
Yeah, I`m enjoying this, coz then we can all have a laugh together... Big Smile Smilie

Oh yeah, I`ve already mentioned this in the ear worm thread, but it was embarressing so I`ll tell u in here as well...Just in case u didn`t read it.

U know the song Lady Marmalade? Well, me and 3 of my mates had to do a dance to it...There was me (10), Shawnie (11), Heidi (8) and Molly (8). Now we`re all a year older now, and our minds have changed alot, I wouldn`t have done this again. Coz my mum childminds these other girls and Heidi`s been with me for 8 and a half years now, so we`re really good friends.

We had done the dance in 1 week, now that wasn`t a good idea, we should have waited longer...We looked at wot Pink, Lil` Kim, Christina and Mya wore in the video and we tried to get similar costumes... Big Smile Smilie (I can feel my cheeks burning already) Now if u`ve seen the video, u`ll know wot the four singers characters were in the song...so, we tried to get the costmes. Molly wore a bikini (white I think), I wore a red bikini, Shawnie wore a black leotard and Heidi...we went and bought her these, I lied about borrowing the bikini in the other thread coz I wanted to save a funny part...we bought her a black bra that was about 10 times to big for her. and a pair of black nickers. The reason we bought a bra too big for her was bc she had a flat chest, so we stuffed the bra with skin coloured tights. Big Laugh Smilie

Then we covered ourselves in our big coats, I was wearing this really big fur coat and the rest of them just wore their normal coats, so we all looked different. Big Smile Smilie

We sat on these chairs and one by one, we danced as the character from the video taking off our coats a we danced, it was soooooooo funny! But Heidi was the best! She just looked so funny! Every1 had a laugh, luckily we weren`t in front of too many ppl, only 5... Big Smile Smilie PHEW!

(Actually come to think of it, we were all 2 years younger than we were, yeah, coz my bro was 14 at the time...I remember! Yeah, So I was nine! U can`t blame me for having a bit of fun can u? Wink Smilie lol

Oh yeah and while Heidi was dancing...it fell off! Big Laugh Smilie We all truned our heads though, she was lucky she had a flat chest!

Ok, I don`t think this makes sence, I hope it does...

Happy laughing...

~little devil~
that must have been a site to see sheryl! Big Laugh Smilie Wink Smilie

my most embarrassing moment was when i was at my dads. we were having a tiki party, and i was about 8 at the time. my dad convinced me to where a grass skirt and coconut bra and dance to jimmy buffet. bad enough i was in a skirt and bra, but even worse when the skirt fell off!!! i was so embarrassed, and there was no where to go, since we were on a boat, so i jumped in the water!

another good one was when i... o nm i cant say it here... Wink Smilie
During one of the first weeks at University a few of us decided to see how the other half lived and spent a day going to each others lectures. I dragged a couple of friends along to a Zoology lecture, which was no problem as there were eighty or so students in the class. I got a shock, however, when I joined a friend at her archeology class.... there were only about ten of them there. Unlike my zoology lectures, where there was no class interaction, this lesson was more like a discussion group. After about half an hour of the lecturer giving me strange looks, he finally asked me my opinion on some pattern on some vase... I'd been dreading that moment from time I first sat down in there.

I must admit, I went bright red and actually ran away.
lol Val...

My mum was looking after a toddler once and I was goin to take her out in the sun and have a water fight with her coz no 1 else was around...

Well, she couldn`t go out in her nappy, so she had to strip! Look, I wasn`t very interested about wot she had ok, I didn`t even look i can tell u! We went out side and I was in my bikini and this little toddler(Maisie) was naked running around the garden like a lunitic with me squirting the water over her with the hose...

My mates friends just happened to come round and sit outside the garden! I was really embarressed so I ran inside and Maisie was still out there naked! (I`m cruel ain`t I?) lol

Maisie got embarressed as well! So she ran in about a minute after me and started crying! lol

Ok, I`ve decided I`m going to be less cruel from now on! Big Smile Smilie

It didn`t help when my brothers mate are all 16! There was luckily only 5 of them there...But still, I was totally embarressed...

I felt really sorry for Maisie coz she was totally stripped! Poor girl!
Poor Maisie!

Another one of mine isn't that embarrassing now that I look back at it, but it was then.
On my mom's side alone I have 71 family members, not including 2nd cousins, great aunts and such. On my dad's side I have 30. All together that 107 including my mom, dad, brothers, sister and step-mom.
It was my birthday, and since I share it with 2 cousins we decided to have a party together instead of separate ones. I invited my friend Jeff to come with me. We had to rent an assembly hall in order fit all of us! When we first walked in the door to the assembly hall, Jeff looked at me puzzled. "I thought it was just a family party?" he asked. Of course, I had to tell him, this was my family, and then I had to introduce him to all 107 people! That doesn't seem too bad, but half of them don't speak a lick of English!
If you've ever seen the movie "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" you'll know what I'm talking about when I say that my family is very "outgoing" They made poor Jeff dance the polka and when it came time to blow out the candles on the cakes (we had 5 cakes) they sang happy birthday in Polish, Italian, Russian, and German!
Now when I think of it, it's kinda funny, and we still tease Jeff about it!
Now it`s my turn to say," Poor Jeff!" lol

That`s one big family!
Hum.. somehow I seem to forget everything embarrasing that I've done in my life. But I'll try to tell you some of it.

One of my most embarrasing things was when I fainted at a supermarket. I was about 12 back then, I was ill and I was helping my mother shopping for groceries. This was around 6pm and the supermarket was filled with people. All of a sudden I feel really nauseous and weird, and the floor was swinging beneath me. I told my mother I just had to go out for a while, but I guess she sensed that there was something wrong, so she followed me and just outside the cashiers I fell down, so she stormed through, yelling for the whole store to know: "I'LL BE RIGHT BACK, MY DAUGHTER IS FAINTING!!" Which, of course, made everyone look at me while I was fainting.

Another time I fainted in the line to the skiing lifts. Me and my friend decided to go skiing, and we were out really late, and even though I had eaten some breakfast, it was not enough, for as we stood in the middle of the line I felt I was going to faint (I had learned to recognize it). So I tried to get out of the line, but I had heaps of people to all sides of me, and I wasn't really smooth with my skiis and the boots and fainting and all, so after a while I just fell down, straight over a bunch of people, with my skiis and my poles and everything. And my boots didn't even release from the skiis, so it was all just a big mess of skiis and poles and people, and I in the middle of it all. Aah, that was embarrasing.

A third time I fainted during the last rehearsal for a play. I was playing the butler in Annie, and as the others were talking I was just supposed to stand completely still. The thing is that I hadn't eaten anything for the entire day, so my bloodsuger was down at zero and that is most noticable when you stand still, plus we had these really strong lights pointed at us. Now, at a final rehearsal of a play, it is supposed to go smoothly. Nothing is supposed to be changed and nothing is supposed to interrupt it.
I told my friend Johanna, who was playing another butler, that I was going to faint, but she couldn't hear me, so I had to tell her again, but a lot louder, and then I completely interrupted the rehearsal by dragging her with me down from the stage, and just as I had gotten down from the stage I fainted.

Woaw.. Seems like I faint all the time! Weird. But I don't, really. Smile Smilie
Anyway, I'll come back to you when I remember some more stories, I'm sure I will soon enough. Big Smile Smilie Cool Smilie
Mine would be mooning Mrs Greenhough, in third year of high school. She was giveing me stick, so I stood up in the middle of the class, turned round, dropped my pants and slapped my bottom repeatedly at her. She did deserve it though.

talking about immature! ROFL! Big Laugh Smilie

I feel sorry for all the kids in ur class who had to c u! Big Laugh Smilie
I just remembered one, luckily I don`t think any of my mates remember it...

When I was 7 years old we were playing in the playground and I was playing with a lot of boys and girls...I was mucking around and my best mate shouted out, "Sheryl! Your skirt is stuck inside your knickers!" I turned round and it was! The worst thing though was that she said it in front of EVERY1! Very Sad Smilie

Oh well, at least I won`t be reminded of that in my secondary school...*sigh*phew!
ROFL at all of you! Those were funny!
Here's a good one. I was asked to the school dance by a really hott, really popular guy. Of course I said yes, since I had no one else to go with. But when I got there another girl was with him. Then he announced really loudly that he had a change of plans and forgot to tell me, that idiot of a girl hanging on his arm like a parrot "yea, get lost, that's right, yea..." I didn't mind because I didn't really know him that well. But it was still embarrassing to be turned down like that in front of the whole year! I don't let people walk all over me like that, so I got him and her back by "accidently" tripping and spilling my punch on them as they were kissing. Big Laugh Smilie
U go girl!

If any boy does that to a girl then he sholdn`t even be livin! Mad Smilie
Is he by chance the English one, That sounds like good old fashioned Northern bluntness.

we were walking behind this old lady with a two handed walker on wheels and her family, and my grandfather blurts out that they should have little rockets on the walker cuz she was moving so slowly!!!
Zimmerframes should be motorised, whats the point of having a stablising frame if you move as slow as you would with out it.
OMG!!!! i was dropping my friend off at her house this summer after we came from the pool and i looked horrible becaues my contacts wernt in, I was half naked wearing my bikini ,my hair was wet, i didnt have makeup on and geeze I looked horrible. Well when we dropped her off, her brother who is a year older than me and his friend were playing catch near th car. Oh course my frien had to get out their side. and she left the door open and they were comming near me and that was pretty bad. I couldnt wait to go!!!!!
Well it happened a few years back and I had bought some new clothes a few days back and got this particulat morning early start it was 'bout half five in the mornin' so dark as hell. Well put on the new jeans and stuff still half a sleep and went ta work. Arrive down in and everybody is sniggering and I just walk on and ignore it....this goes on for a couple of hours noboby says nought.....until the so called funny guy comes up and he laugin and carryin on makin jokes ya know the kinda guy. You just want ta shove his head through a window. Well turns out that I hadn't tooken the labels and stickers of the jeans and I looked like a complete eejit.
But a couple of other people looked like fools with there jaws half hanging off.
That happens all the time to me Darous,or I wear my pants inside out with the tags still on. Big Smile Smilie
ok here is another one of mine-

i was talking w/ my friend and i told her about a story i was writing. i said i was basing the charaters on all my friends in it. she asked if the guy i liked was in it and i think he heared! i said no he wasnt in it so that he would think i did not care either way. but he reall is in it!
ok, I have one that`s quite lame, but if it`s happened to you, u`ll know y I`ve put it in here...

When I went out wid Jonathon, I told him (soppy Tongue Smilie ) stuff which we said would be between just him and me, well, when I dumped him, he went round showing every1 the texts I`d sent him and told every1 wot I had said to him! It woz really embarrassing so i just laugh it off now and tell him where to stick it! Big Smile Smilie

This will happen to you again, and again, and again Sheryl. Every time you break up with someone, they save ammunition to get you back with later on. I personally use, erm... fruity photos and things that have been left in my flat. I also once published a series of very funny letters on my website from a girl who wouldn't leave me alone. She did after that. I am eminently unembarrassable, as I have no shame, so while I have done most of the things listed here before (and a heck of a lot else besides) I have never been bothered about it.
One of my assistants made a minor mistake last week of leaving some of the data on the boat. I just sent an internal email asking simply, "Where can I get decent assistants from now days?"

Unfortunately, he didn't open it at the time. The next day the other assistant presented me with a real problem and.... well you can see where this is going.

Email is like old love letters in that they often show up again at the most inopportune times. Supervisors must learn not to make jokes that aren't explained as such at the time they are made or they may find they have morale problems among their employees. I found that's another reason why supervision is a lonely job. Dunce Smilie

Oh yes it will happen again and again. The best soloution to this is to carry a vice and some cheese wire. Wink Smilie
yep! hmm...I have a lil prob, he keeps askin me out and I`ve just out had enough of him...so, I might have to go to plan b...RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wink Smilie no, I`m gonna say it to his face and tell him to go to hell! Annoying idiot...I DIDN`T SWEAR! hip hip horay! Tongue Smilie It`s hard not swearing when I`m talkin bout him! Big Laugh Smilie but anyway
Sheryl,if you think you have it bad then imagine having double trouble,I use to have a pair of twins who followed me around constantly,the only way I could get away from them is if I went to the woman's bathroom.This went on for over 4 months. If you must tell it to his face to nock-off,not like it'll work just help blow off some steam.But be gentle he might just know you're worth the trouble,don't wan't to shatter any hearts.
yea, I guess ur right...I`l RIP his head off! Big Laugh Smilie no, that woz a joke ok? A JOKE! soz, i`m in a wierd mood tonight, I feel wierd! Tongue Smilie That`s not unuals thse days I think...i hope!

ok, another humiliating thing that`s happened, well...*silence*
