Most Embarrassing Moment

[MrRottweiler]

I have plenty of them


When I was about 15 I went to a nightclub and was searched on the way in. I had come straight from college and had a few bits in my pocket which had holes in so they had moved in to the lining of my jacket. In front of a huge queue all looking at me the doorman pulled out a harmonica from my jacket then after some rummaging a packet of salt and vinegar crisps and then some more rummaging and he pulled out a banana from my jacket! He looked very bemused and I wanted the ground to swallow me up!

Care to share?

I was 23-24, it was winter. The night before I had argued with my boyfriend cause he'd found my appearance too scruffy, so here I was, walking in the centre of Athens in my suede trousers and high heeled shoes, wearing my mother's new long coat. It was raining and the bus had followed a different route due to road works. I was late for my date and in a hurry.

I was crossing an avenue, walking hastily, and didn't notice some oil on the street. In combination with the rain...
needless to say I slipped! The fall I took was spectacular, feet up in the air and the long coat flying like a cape behind me!
The best thing is, the traffic light changed, and I had to get up, pick up my handbag and umbrella and get out of the way withing seconds!!

The bf told me off for being late, and to top it all, it turned out I had fractured a bone in my hand.
Spent my birthday, the Carnival and my Name day with my hand in plaster, broke up with the boyfriend. But I still remember that fall as the most embarrassing moment ever!

Nina at least there was a positive break in that - from the Unsympathetic and demanding bf


Reminds me of when I was at a works party around 2001. There was a girl there I had liked for ages but had never had the nerve to speak to her. After drinking some dutch courage and when her mates were on the dance floor I went over to her (with all my work mates watching) and we spent about 5 minutes introducing ourselves. We got on well and arranged to plan a night out at work the following Monday. Success! However, when I got up to walk back to my own group my legs got tangled in an empty chair, then another, then another and for what felt like an eternity I was battling not to fall over while surrounded by what appeared to be ravenous chairs. Somehow I didn't fall over but I must have looked a complete fool and all my *alleged* friends couldn't stop laughing. Needless to say I didn't turn around or speak to the girl again. Oh well!

for those who may find this next tale disgusting or revolting, please do not read this post if you think you may be offended

a few years ago i was in the cubicle at work doing a poo. i got up to wipe my bum, as you do, and never realised that i still had a bit "attached". i only realised when it fell off and rolled/bounced forward and under the side of the cubicle to my left, which was occupied at the time. in my embarrassment, i didnt know whether to make a dash for it before the "neighbour" got a chance to exit and wait for me, or to sit tight till they'd gone. these days i just use the sink.

A BLACK BALL GAME THE BLACK BALL IS OVER THE POCKET AND A MISCUE OCCOURS

I was 19, living at home still, and my boyfriend was living with us (in my room - continental Europe after all ). My Mum walks in one Sunday morning wanting to wake us for breakfast. Well, we were awake before she walked in. Very awake. Nothing like a Mum walking in on you. Honest. I got my revenge though and walked in on her and her future husband, which was even MORE embarassing. Something you don't ever want to do. Ever.

I have a very appropriate addition. Yesterday I was giving a code to someone over the phone and she happened to be a 'global head of department, VIP etc' and I was speaking phonetically as in Alpha, Sierra, Foxtrot etc. I said Yankee, Whiskey and she then asked me to repeat myself and in a bit of cunfusion over the two I said....Well I'm sure you can imagine! Thankfully she burst out laughing but I felt like a jar of beetroot!
