Please try to refrain from pseudo-embarrassing stories that you only tell in an attempt to be witty, and keep these stories about yourself and how it was embarrassing to you. I'll start off with a short one, though there's plenty more I could add.

I once put transmission fluid in my car where the oil was supposed to go. I had bought it thinking it was oil, not noticing until I poured some in and I was all "duurr...this doesn't look right." I immediately got an oil change after that.

I remember this one time in high school when I farted in math class. It was a silent fart mind you BUT it was sooooo bad smelling that literally half the class got up and surrounded the door trying to get some fresh air. The teacher thought that the smell must have been from a recent sewage leak from one of the man holes outside. Obviously I wasn't going to admit to it so I just played along, put my shirt over my nose and said "wow, that stinks!"

I was once playing around on a swing set, and got stuck in the swing designed for small children. I was there for two or three hours.

i was so tired and drunk that i slept with a girl without having sex with her. that was weird.

I once met a blonde skinny guy in the toilets in the union and got given his phone number, then 10 months later I moved in with him.

I'm straight, and I think that counts as an embarrasing story of how I met my flatmate.

There's a theme park around here that has a ride called the "Pittsburgh Plunge." It consists of about 16 people sitting in a small boat which travels down a steep hill. The collision with the water creates a reasonably big splash, large enough to soak anyone within 15 to 20 feet. Anyhow, several years ago, I had a terrible experience on it.

As we went down the slope, I held onto the restraining bar which was keeping me in my seat. On impact, all I knew was that I heard some sort of cracking noise, and that my left arm was in massive pain. I started screaming, unaware of how much noise I was making. I opened my eyes to see four ten year olds, in the row in front of me, staring, with a faces that said, "Holy crap, the ride wasn't that bad, dude." I was more than a little embarrassed as I exited the ride, still in pain when my arm swung the wrong way, feeling like I was getting weird looks from everyone.

The people at the medical station said it was most likely just a muscle thing, and gave me a make-shift sling to ease the pain. A trip to the emergency room the next day revealed that there was a large cyst on my upper left arm that made the bone extremely fragile. Because I was holding onto the bar when the boat hit the water, and because the bone was so weak, the force from the collision snapped my arm. Luckily though, the cyst wasn't cancerous and it was broken enough that the doctors said they didn't have to perform surgery on it.

Sith: how is that embarrassing? I was totally expecting to find out the crack was totally unrelated to anything even remotely concerning.

I went to the beach for the first time in awhile last month and my swimming trucks came off on the first wave. Luckily I had white boxers on :rollseyes:.

Luckily I was able to stay in the water waist down and the trunks were stuck onto the edge of my toes. I had to turn them outside-in, aka the opposite of inside-out. Some random kid and this 30 year old surfer were the only ones who saw me (and by saw me, I mean saw what I was doing, not "saw" me. I told myself "it's not like I'm going to ever see them again in life, oh well." and kept bodyboarding.

The randomly screaming in public with everyone wondering, "wtf?" was embarrassing.

I have done that before sober. Thats how much of a wimp I am.

A long time ago when I was a few years younger, at a car show.. this one guy hit my car purposely so I went at his car with a baseball bat and smashed it up.

There was about 80 people just watching this, and all of the sudden I felt freight train hit me in the kidneys, as I suddenly realized 3 beefcake city officers had just tackled me to the ground and were proceeding in beating my ***.

So I'm on the pavement getting my *** beat by the cops all bloody, both my shoes fell off when they tackled me, and I get cuffed nad escorted to the squad car in front of 80 people who were quite amused.


All this while wearing a bright pink AE polo shirt.

And then you got sent off to live with your aunt and uncle in Bel Air, right?

I am offended by this slander of Will's character. He got in one little fight with a couple of guys who were up to no good, makin' trouble in his neighborhood. He was a hero!

Yeah, wearing a pink shirt.

I've since retired all pink from my wardrobe.

I think it was probably also humorous seeing as I'm only 5'2. So you've got a midget in a pink shirt beating the **** out of a car, then getting his *** handed to him by three oversized cops.

I drank too much at a party, threw up, and spent the rest of the night passed out naked in the bathtub.

Thankfully I don't remember it.

How did that work out in terms of charges filed against you?

Last week I tripped while going down the stairs at work. I was carrying a tray with 6 coffees on it at the time. The stairs where I tripped are just wooden slats and people have their desks under them...

A long time ago when I was a few years older, OMFG ****ING SPAM BOT.

I had a 'crush' on a girl all through middle school. In 8th grade I finally decided to man up and ask her to dance at one of the school dances. We danced for half the song, then she started crying. Because she didn't want to dance with me.

Not a good way for your first dance ever to go.

China's growth rate may dip to 9.9%? That is embarrasing!

too many to list really.

1. When i was doing my A level exams, we all put our bags at the front of the hall. I was one of the last to finish, and when i got up to my collect my bag, I realised it had been thrown about when other students had pulled theirs from the mound of other bags.
And for some reason, I had a couples of pairs of unwashed underwear in there, which had fallen out and now lay scattered around the exam room. One pair found its way over the door handle of the headmaster.

And yes, my underwear had name tags

2. When i was going out with a lesbian (didnt know she though) she hugged me in the town centre and I got wood. It was pretty obvious. I tried to pretend it was my mobile phone.

if(getThingFlags(source) & 0x8){
  do her}
elseif(getThingFlags(source) & 0x4){
  do other babe}
else{
  do a dude}

rofl

Who the hell nametags their underwear? How the hell would you lose it?

At some point in middle school, a friend of mine dared me to give a girl this rather dirty note saying I wrote it, so of course I did it. She started laughing, and the teacher took it. I recieved a nice after school lecture about how inappropriate that behavior was.

When I was 8 my family and I were at a hotel for vacation. I had just come back from the pool, and my mother was in the shower. I took my trunks off (read: naked) and bundled under this really warm blanket.

Now, the hotel had those really nifty key-card things on the doors, and I wanted to use it really badly. Without thinking, I get up, grab the card, and step outside our room. Upon doing this, I quickly realized that I was completely naked. So I put the key-card in the reader and quickly pull the door handle to open the door. If anyone here has used one of these before, you know that you have to wait a little bit for the door to unlock after putting the card in. In my naked, bewildered state, don't realize this, and I continue to quickly turn the handle over and over again.

Long story short, I'm stuck naked in the hallway for a couple of minutes until my mom gets out of the shower. A couple of older teens walked by chuckling, and an older pair strolled by and pretended they weren't looking.

Haha, I don't know how you forgot you were naked, nice one.

hmm... sports day at school, we're all sitting on the grass that looks down on the running track, waiting for the events to start. the hurdles had been set out ready for the first race and I thought it would be fun to have a quick go. so I head down to the track, in front of the whole school and... yeah, you know where this story is going. stacked it in front of everyone. much laughter. I did not enjoy that sports day

Tight jeans, man!

I once asked out a girl out to a club who I had taken out the night before as well but I was so drunk I thought I had never met her. We ended up having sex that night, so I guess I'm a nice drunk. This was at a hostel.

I don't know of any hurdler who didn't biff it a lot when they were first starting. But then again the hurdles are designed to give way and it's rare you actually fall down completely.

I was so cozy in that warm blanket. Then excitement took over.

Sorry this actually made me laugh out loud

So my junior year prom, I go with a girl that I really liked for a long time (who is now my gf actually), and it's all good. After the prom, we stay at my friend's gf's house. Due to a lack of beds, me and this girl have to share a bed in the same room as my friend and his gf. They fall asleep pretty quick, but me and her, being all excited to be together, decide to hook up. Halfway through it, while we're both butt naked under the covers at 6 AM, my friend just says '...dude, do you guys want to go to another room? I've been awake for half an hour.'

Still haven't lived that one down.

Haha, nice.

Guy ran off, so I got misdemeanor and 8 hours community service followed by 6 months probation. If I violated probation they would have charged me with assault.

They actually leads me to another embarassing moment, when this freshman and his posse decided to openly mock me for whatever reason in my senior year, to which my "posse" dissed them back but he got in my face and I couldnt hit him. It was rather embarassing because everyone thought I was a "pussy", but really I didn't want to spend the next few years in jail for assault and more cahrges of assault following a violated probation.

It was one of the worst feelings in the world, knowing you could easily deliver a necessary *** beating but couldn't.

I'm incredibly absent-minded so just about everything I do every day would count on this thread.

Meh.

Theres probably a hideously embarassing heat induced video of me serving at a store at last years World Scout Jamboree. We'd been there non stop for about 6 hours with little breaks or water in sweltering heat. Some scout dudes came in to film us and asked us to generally jump about and act up for the film.

Only one of us did....

I have never dared look to see if that videos around...

yeah, I figured as much. it was more the idiocy of trying it out for the first time in front of my entire school. and I did hit the floor properly, I believe I may have even grazed my face

How do we get so many spam bots?

I can't remember an embarrassing moment right now. I'll try to think of one.

I went to a friend's place in college for a party. We did car bombs but the cream didn't stick well with my stomach (allergies). I later vomitted on the floor (and myself) during a card game in front of a bunch of people.

Car bombs are the only time I've liked Baileys with anything. I'm not a big creamy-taste guy.
