    I ate a cigarette butt in order to be popular once. It was unpleasant, and didn't work.

    I once scored an own goal playing in a soccer match for the town I live in :o

    Although it didn't matter because I scored two up the other end and we won 2 - 1, I scored all of the goals. People still laugh at me to this day :(

    Running down an icy hill one day to catch the bus that was nearly at the stop. Just as I got to the bottom, and the bus stopped, i slipped and landed right on my a$$ with a horrible crack noise. Passed out for about 2 minutes and then came to to find EVERYBODY on the bus standing around looking at me. Aah, fun times.

    Ha ha, I just broke my arse laughing at that...Embarrasing moments, yes I had a few, not to few to mention unfortunately! Was in my final year of college, sitting in a lecture, sipping on a coffee, taking notes..fairly big class now..next thing I know Im on the floor, the chair just came out from under me, I dont know how, nobody pulled it or anything.. I was lying on the floor, thinking did that just happen to me? but yes it did!
    Going further back to my school days, last class on a Friday evening, French, nearly 3 o clock, thought the class had somehow ended as could hear all the other students out in the hall..broke into song as I am want to do, everyone just turned around and stared at me and then the bell rang:o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,562 ✭✭✭connundrum


    I used to love this when you were asked it in school and there'd be loads of ****e answers with 0 imagination.. eh.. I fell over, and people laughed. :o.

    My personal worst is one I still have to live with today.. my ma tried to run me over in the car, and she did. I seriously get so embarrased when I've to tell the story.. oh lord :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Pigheads ice cool so he generally doesnt do embarrassing moments.

    However one incident sticks out in my beautiful mind. It was the summer of 98, the world cup was on and I was in the hospital with salmonella ****ting gallons and gallons of stinking runny poo. (Have you ever tried chatting up a nurse with all your best lines and then seeing it all go horribly wrong when she asks to have a look at your poo bucket to see has it got any solider since yesterday?)

    Anyway there i was sitting on a commode( For all you kiddies out there a commode is a portable toilet!) watching the classic Holland V Argentina match when my buddy walks in with a bag of wine grapes for me. Now unbeknownst to me the bed was blocking his view of the commode and as far as he was concerned i was just sitting on a chair watching the match. Anyway he walks in and hes chatting away and i'm thinking to myself "My word hes taking this well, i suppose if he's gonna be cool about this situation then shall i be too"

    So I got off the seat whilst still chatting to him and i proceeded to give my gorgeous hairy arse a big wipe with the toilet roll. The poor lad was in shock and just pointed and tried to say something and then quickly ran out the door like the hot piece of runny poo that was running down my leg. Turns out he wasnt quite as cool with the situation as i had originally thought.

    Ah well at least Holland won the game with a magnificent Dennis Bergkamp last minute winner.

    I spilled a beer on a nice new wooden floor at a party, and thought it would be ok to shout about cleaning it up with a slice of spongecake. I blame the alcohol.


    EDIT: Jaysus Pighead... Have you seen him since? :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,387 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    I remember hearing on gerry ryan a woman saying she was in dunnes with her mother and was trying on clothes. I remember those days with no dressing rooms and having to try stuff on right there in the shop. She said she was 10 years old and "just developing" which I took to mean had a bit of hair. The mother had trousers to try on and whipped down her trousers down in the middle of the shop in front of a gang of teenage lads, but she had no knickers on! and they saw the lot.

    of course there are the classic urban myths. The lad having **** or girl throwing a cucumber up themselves while listening to their walkman with their eyes closed, then they open them to find a cup of tea on their table, left there by their mother.

    Or the guy who goes for a meal in the fiances house with her parents. Goes for a crap but the toilet wont flush. He scoops out the turn and flings it out the window. returns to the table in the conservatory only to see the turd slipping down the roof window. I think it was even done on podge & rodge

    Here's a classic, must have been about 15/16. Was at the bus stop with an old GF. Having a mooch of course. So next thing this car drives by and we get beeped. Ha ha, funny driver!! We stop mooching, turn around to see the car driving by and it was my parents. Talk about :o:o:o

    I got some slagging when I got home :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,915 ✭✭✭Siogfinsceal


    Connundrum and Pighead you have me in stitches those stories are brilliant im still laughing at the image of Pighead's mate staring in disgust lol

    I got very drunk at halloween last year. Was dressed as a mermaid and ended up in the carpark of a club at 3am trying to find my mate who was last seen chatting inside to some bloke I didnt know. So I got my mobi out and rang her. Some fella answered her phone and told me I couldnt speak to her. Naturally I assumed that it was some guy who had stolen her fone and went off at him, getting rather abusive and finally telling him that my mate certainly hadnt grow balls in the last hour so he should nt have her fone. then I looked at the screen.....id rang her house.....it was her dad who now considers me in need of psychiatric evaluation...

    I worked part time in dunnes and was having this kind of running mess battle with this guy i worked, Phil Brown( if your out there im still in revenge mode!) any way i had stung him when he was on the jacks poured a load of soap from the dispenser over the cubicle wall..very funny i thought..any way later on we where facing off dairy... things had calmed down..he picks up a jar of Helmans Mayonnaise and says will you put this around the other isle for me...so he lobs it to me but the crafty fu*ker had losened the lid hand had lobbed it above my head so when i caught it above my head it opened and it spilled all over over my head and evrywhere..i was gutted everyone was cracking up...

    I was also caught on camera taking a dump in my mates garden at a party(in the bushes) but that didnt count cos i drank a bottke of jack daniels after a box of stella...were not allowed mention stuff if your really wasted but they all have the video clip ready to embaress me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    Christ, some cringers there. Best ones so far are the ones involving Pighead and his mate, and the lad that roared out at a concert.

    Nothing overly embarrassing ever really happened to me to be honest...!

    Although I know a lad who was up one night watching porn dvds in his sitting room on the big tv. Everyone was in bed, so he figured he was grand for the night. He was about 15 at the time.

    He wakes up the next morning, still in the sitting room, fully dressed, tv off, porno gone. His mother comes in, tells him he shouldn't be falling asleep in the sitting room and leaves.

    That's pretty cringy me thinks.

    I rang the wrong number looking for my friend.

    I said "Well, you heading out"

    response, "Who's this?"

    That's when I hung up.

    I'll never forget the shame

    How do you get to sleep at night? :D

    Speaking of which someone sent me a message recently asking me was I going out, all the lads where heading out, etc etc, wasn't a friends number so....

    I replied: "Oh nothing much, probably head to tesco after collecting the dole, pretty much plan on eating cold beans out of the tin in my jocks in front of the tv until 2am in the morning"

    I think they twigged they got the wrong number.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,998 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    My most recent one has gotta be when I broke up with ex last year - went ballistic!! I regret everything that happened after it

    but I think my number 1 has got to be when I was 15 playing u16 championship match at corner forward, was trying to lose my man...ball came in with me noticing, hit off the side of my head and went over the bar! :p:o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 995 ✭✭✭sinjin_smythe


    Its nice to see im up there for the most embarrasing of moments


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31 hotpotatoes


    Lets see, embarrassing moments, ah so many to choose from..once ran into a window. No, I wasn’t drunk.

    When I was 17 my boyfriend’s mother walked in on us in the sitting room with our pants down accompanied by luminous red faces.

    I’ve dialled my friend’s house on numerous occasions asking to speak to my mother. Our home numbers are very similar.

    When I was very young one of my so called friends told me that the bar code or something like that on my cool pop that I had just bought were the winning numbers in a competition …I went back into newsagents demanding my prize.

    My friend and I went to a house party when we were 17 and thought it would be a great idea to dye our hair while we were there. We wrecked the bathroom and the towels leaving a trail of brown glob everywhere. The kid who owned the house got in masses of trouble when the parents arrived home so my friend and me decided to be noble and go down the next day to apologise. I was so nervous that when the parents asked us our names, and my friend gave her name, I just repeated what my friend had said and told them my name was her name as well.

    I once drank half a bottle of JD to impress this hot American guy I fancied. I ended up so twisted that him and his friends had to carry me home, an arm and a leg each kinda style and put me to bed with a bowl beside my bed in case I puked. Thankfully my parents were away that weekend but when my siblings discovered me the next morning I was still a wretched mess, all traces of self respect gone, unable to take my clothes off for a shower or make a cup of coffee without my hand acting like it hand Parkinsons, puking every time i tried to drink water to rehydrate myself…

    Once upon a time, I was at an open day for a local adult education centre. We were all in the computer room playing first2zero, a darts game.
    Anyways, we were having a bit of a laugh and i saw a player called 'easy woman'. Me, as a fan of easy women, decided to challenge the user to a game.
    Well one thing led to another and after a while we had whipped off our cyber socks and so forth. By this stage I had a bit of a crowd of mates around me and then my cyber friend suggested doing something with a pink dildo, that frankly scared the bejaysus out me. I quickly exited the site, ignoring some of the weird ****ers around me who wanted to continue with these disturbed actions.
    Anyhow, i was walking around the computer room a little while later and i saw another mate playing this 'easy woman' user, I, good citizen as i am, advised him against those internet pervs until the realisation suddenly dawned on me, HE WAS EASY WOMAN. He had been quietly laughing away at all us fools getting excited about this mysterious cyber sex woman. To do this day having cyber sex with a friend goes down as my most embarrassing moment.

    I was in a toilet in town, doing a no. 2 and to occupy myself for the duration of my toilet stay i decided to browse through my phone. so as i was browsing through my pics the phone drops and bounces under the wall into the next cubicle, i froze for a few seconds,waiting for it to come sliding back under but no it didnt so i finished up quickly and went outside to wait for the person beside me to come out. when he did he handed me the phone and i was soooo embaressed as he put the phone back in my hand,i just wanted to run away and hide :(

    My top two embarrasing moments involve giving myself a concussion...

    1] Walking into the wing of a plane.... in a MUSEUM in germany... knocked out cold had to go round for weeks with one mofo of a bruise all across my forehead.

    2] Was invited to a house party in a pub while already intoxicated by some lad that i'd just made real good friends with in the previous few weeks... anyway to cut long story short went to said party turns out it was more of a gathering, i was the only girl and there were bout 6 other lads who just so happen to be some of the most popular and good lookin in the town. Decided drinking 5 millers and a large glass of tequila would help me be a less nervous and boost the confidence -except i was already well plastered before i had a sip at party. Proceeded to puke my ring up everywhere, passed out and had to be carried home. When the lads got to the house they tried to find my keys so they wouldnt have to talk to parents [it was 5am or so] they werent able to find em anyway so they had to ring doorbell. Parents came down anyway thanked lads for lookin after me. They brought me inside and i managed to fall and wallop my head off a marble table and then again when i was getting back up... had to go to doctors and everything. God that was mortifying... i'm cringing at it. Luckily i dont remember it and only know from the constant teasing i get.

    yep tis quite possible.. was told not to participate in any form of sport or activity that could result in a head injury just in case!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 896 ✭✭✭Subliminal


    Worst ever was when i was down visiting a mate in oldcastle. On the way back from the pub with 2 mates one nite, i was totaly and uterly wasted, i kept thinking for some reason, it would be funny to run ahead and hide in a field and jump out on my 2 mates. Anyway, i was hiding in a field, crouched down beside the bushes laughing lke a little girl, i see this cow coming towards me, i was looking at it, and more and more i kept thinking "Thats a strange cow" only when it got within 50 yards did i see it was a bull!!, i scaled the barbed wire fence, rolled down the embankment, banged my head, knocked myself out cold. Last thing i remeember where my two mates laughing so hard they were on the ground in stitches. Everytime i see them i get the Bull jokes..

    Oh i have many.

    Most recent- I went bowling with my boyfriend, you know, something different to do. It was pissing rain and my jeans were the kind that skim the floor with heels, so with the bowling shoes, they were miles too long. and were wet. so i went up to take my second go, and my left leg slipped and i did the splits. and slid half way down the lane. pulled a hamstring and everything.

    i was sleeping in an old boyfriends house while his mother was away, and we were in bed, after a bit of a fondle, and his grandfather walked in to see me in all my naked glory.
    Another one thats kinda the same, I was in his house again and we saw his granddad pull up, so i ran into his moms room. he lives in a bungalow and what his grandfather came for was to tidy the back garden, which ment he could see straight into the mothers bedroom. I had to hide between the bed and the wall for three hours, stark naked.
    I didnt stay in that house again!

    howz this... im actually a geordie living in Dublin.

    Sooooo when I was 15 I 'got in with the wrong crowd'. ( im a good girl really 8 year later....)

    Ended up seeing a really rough lad who I later found out was a drug dealer.. in a rough area and i was hanging round the streets with him and some girls from school.... well one night we ended up gwtting the normal bottle of white cider and got a bit tipsy on the street. I had a 10pm curfew though.. Anyway my lovely, older, drug dealing boyfriend of the time decided he would introduce me to cannabis and 'stitched' me up on a bucket. Nice guy eh? I have no idea how I got home that night. All i know is i ended up on a bus and smacked my head off the metal bar on the seat in front. Luckily 2 lovely good samaritan men on the same bus somehow got me home, I wasn't able to walk! I have no idea how the guys knew where i lived as i was barely conscious to be able to tell them after the bump on the head, all the weed and booze!

    I was grounded for ever! My mam and dad never trusted me again, and my life was absolute hell, but whats worse for me is... the embarassment of having to be carried home by strangers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,130 ✭✭✭Azureus


    i havent really got that many significant enbarrasing moments considering i manage to make an idiot of myself most days :) but my skirt falling off on stage in front of a few hundered people was pretty memorable.. kept dancing while trying to put it back on and it ended up falling off again! and then i managed to put it on inside out !! thank god for shorts!-but it was still seriously embarassing!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    My most embarassing moment is probably going to be at Itzacon in March. I think I may have bet my facial hair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,484 ✭✭✭Aisling(",)


    Its not the worst but was still fairly embaressing

    It was in my friends house on halloween drinking us dreesed up when I started meeting a guy I really fancied in the kitchen while the others went out to give sweets to trick of treaters when my friends mam walks in one superman and a playboy bunny meeting while she was in there and still when she walked out.I didn't notice but i was told the next day by my friend and as i was staying in her house I had to see her Mam.I never blushed as much in my life:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    Probably the least embarrassing one:

    Had had a bit to drink at a house party, me and a mate decided to race eachother around the house in opposite directions. I started off as fast as I could, and turned around while running to hurl some abuse at him.
    Anyway the people who owned the house also owned one of those huge f*cking Wolfhound or Bloodhound dogs. Me not looking where I was going ran straight into him, did a cartwheel in the air, landed and broke my shin and a finger.

    I swear the dog was laughing at me aswell.

    Probably not THE most embaressing thing thats ever happened to me but anyway... Went out for a couple of drinks with my friend one night when I was still living in my mothers house... Got home (feeling a bit merry) and my sister decides to take the dog for a walk and doesnt bring any keys... I go to bed unaware that she has no keys and go out cold on my bed...

    The next thing I know Im waking up to the words "Anyone ring for a stripper lol" theres a young fireman climbing through my window... My sister couldnt get in and called the feckin fire brigade after ringing the doorbell to no avail for an hour :o and to make it worse I was wearing nothing but my bra and knickers and no sheets over me cause it was so warm that night... THEN I stumble down the stairs in my excitement and open the door to a garden full of neighbours and firemen... STILL IN MY UNDERWEAR :o
