Your most embarrassing moment?

I would say that one of my most embarrassing moments would be at my old job. I use to work for a recreational department and every month we would have new ideas and relays to do with the kids. Well during one of our drills I blasted off so fast that on the way back I fell backwards and hurt my coaxes bone. The worst part of it was that it happened in front of my super fit colleagues who I was competing with.

Another embarrassing moment and it has happen more then once is when people come up to my husband and I and congratulate us and/or ask that embarrassing and ask the annoying question of " How far along are you or when is your due date" :laugh: I just answer them by saying “I am way over due but with my diet” I can tell they get as embarrassed as I was. I probably would not mind if they asked me when I was alone but it can get humiliating when they ask you in front of your husband who you are trying to look thin for:bigsmile:

Sitting watching Biggest Loser, a night before MY weigh in in the Biggest Loser Challenge, eating tollhouse chocolate chip cookies with icing. :noway: Can you believe it? PMS-dang it! (nice excuse).

bunny that is too funny!

Mine is not recent at all but definitely the worst in my life! I was in 10th grade and we had to memorize one of the speeches from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar and I did Mark Anthony's. I was about 430 lbs in HS so I sat in the back to not block anyone. As I squeezed out of the desk and started walking to the front of the room to recite my speech everyone started grabbing at the air and saying ahhh what's that??? Some idiot had put gum under the desk and it got stuck to the front of my shirt and I was stringing it all the way to the front of the room, as I passed everyone it was getting on them. I was soooo embarrassed! :blushing: But I recited my speech perfectly and excused myself to the restroom to bawl my eyes out. I got a 100 A! My teacher said if I could recite that speech perfectly under those conditions I could be president some day. LOL! She was a sweet lady.

I hope those kids grew up to, I don't know, walk into walls and trip over flat surfaces?!?!

That's what they call a "character builder", I think.

Carl walks into walls and I trip over flat surfaces, but I swear neither of us was in that class. :bigsmile:

a few years ago, i was in the mall with my (ex)boyfriend. we were walking around and there was a jewelry store on the corner. he said 'are those diamonds big enough for you?'. i looked and they had 3 huge 'diamonds' on display to show the different kinds of cuts. being curious and not knowing jack about diamond cuts, i went to get a closer look. one of the cuts intrigued me so i leaned in to get a closer look then - BAM! - i smacked my forehead on the glass window the display was behind! i was so embarrassed i just stood next to the window holding my throbbing head laughing hysterically. when my bf came over to me he had to walk me out. when i walked by the store, everyone inside was pointing to me and their heads asking if i was ok.

yea, im a dork.

Don`t feel bad,more then once I have walked straight into a sliding glass door (last year at the golf course carrying some beers was the latest).

no way! that was you??? lol! :laugh:

It was a source of great amusement for the rest of the year too.:ohwell:

unfortunately, i have hundreds of embarrassing stories...its part of my character i suppose.

For all of last year after that whenever I was walking towards that same door which led to an outdoor deck I made a big show of making sure it was open.
It makes for a long life if you can`t laugh at yourself.:drinker:

1)When I was a child I always got lost in the stores on purpose and once I mistook a lady for my mom. She looked like her from behind I grabbed her hand and said "mom i want to go now". She just looked at me weird and I fled :embarassed:


2)My mom used to clean at this ladies house and I always had to go with her to help after school because we didn't have a baby sitter. The house was always dirty and full of roaches and I hated going there. One day the house owners where in their bedroom watching TV while we cleaned the kitchen. I though we where safe to talk so I started complaining and talking to my mom about how dirty and disgusting the house was and why didn't they cleaned it themselves. I also mentioned that it was full of disgusting roaches and that the people where nasty pigs for living like this, all while my mom was cleaning away . Little did I know the house owners were hearing me! The lady came out right in the middle of my conversation and gave me this look and said "Yes I know. I heard all the things you said". They both gave me dirty looks too. I was mortified. Later I found out there was a hole where the door knob was supposed to go because they had taken it out to fix it. .:embarassed: I never did that again..

When I was in college, I set off one summer to see the world. So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a golf course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."

So I got that goin' for me, which is nice. But what made it embarrassing for me is that my pants were around my ankles the whole time.

Max did you recite this from memory? Or did you have to go dig out your BetaMax copy of caddy shack to remember the words?

"I have to laugh, because I've outsmarted even myself. My enemy, my foe, is an animal. In order to conquer the animal, I have to learn to think like an animal. And, whenever possible, to look like one. I've gotta get inside this guy's pelt and crawl around for a few days. "

Okay mine was last week! I was at the mall with my mom and sister! We were looking through the glass window at some kid clothes and I was talking my head off like normal not paying attention and walked full force into the glass window. I hit hard and had a red spot on my head for awhile, and of course everyone happened to be looking when it happened. I was ready to crawl under a rock and die! I know my fmaily will never let me hear the end of it.

Another person that walks into a glass door or window! :drinker:

No longer am I alone. :embarassed:

Nope ur not alone!

not really embarrassing but there was this time I had my picture taking with just a book in front on me.

:flowerforyou:

Here goes...

When I was a senior in high school I was trying on dresses at Nordstrom’s for the prom. One was very long on me and I wanted to go grab a pair of shoes that I had on hold in the shoe department to try the dress on with. So, I leave the dressing room and head out of the department and down the escalator. Everything seems fine until I reach the bottom of the escalator when I try to step off and the dress doesn't move. Turns out the dress is stuck in the escalator and is slowly being pulled off of me. My mom was there, and bless her, was panicked that somehow I'd magically get eaten by the escalator so she starts trying to pull the dress off of me too. Unfortunately for me the dress wasn't structured and was a spaghetti strap pull-on with no zippers, so it actually is coming off of me. By the time the maintenance man stops the escalator the dress is halfway down my body and I am covering my top half with my mom's cardigan. Fantastic. Turns out that the escalators were maintained just earlier that day and the company forgot to put the 'protective stopper' (aka: plastic yellow thing) back on the bottom of the stairs (which is supposed to help stop things like this from happening...). So a clerk cut off the bottom of the dress that was stuck so that I could hold the rest of it around me like a skirt on the way back to my clothes. Oh, and of course on my way back to my dressing room I ran into my prom date picking out a tie. Really, it was a day to remember.

The only bright spot was that Nordstrom’s let me have whatever dress I wanted complimentary because of the 'incident'.... of course that meant I picked out a $900 dress....and not surprisingly, that did make me feel better.
