What made you embarrassed today?

Riverpineapple

We have a what made you smile today and what made you angry today thread. It's time for a what made you embarrassed today thread. Nothing embarrassing has happened to me yet.

It didn't happen today, but I have an injury on my finger that embarrasses me whenever I look at it.

I burned my finger on Saturday by slipping in my room, falling backwards on to my bed and having my hand fall on my hair straightener.

I wish someone had been there to see it, I'd say I looked like a right idiot!

It hurts so bad now though

Oh, I'm also embarrassed because of a thread in After Hours ; Best / Worst Christmas presents.

Brings me back to last Christmas when I took something out of my Santa stocking (from my parents) in front of my family, that turned out to be fruity flavour condoms.

My younger brother and sister were mortified. I was the colour of an extremely ripe tomato and both my parents were wetting themselves.

Then my mother said "A good present is something you'll use, so that's a very good present"

:o:o

It's awful but I don't embarrass. I'm shameless

Generally I find embarrassing stuff I do to be hilarious, like tripping up and spilling stuff. I'm clumsy; damn depth perception.

Well, it's certainly easier to laugh about it than to cry

I'm alwaaaays spilling stuff too ... My clothes never manage to stay clean when there's food around! Grrr!

Doozie

The other night I was out with some friends in a bar and I thought I saw a mate of mine the other side of the room so I walked over, waving, and smiling and then when I was about 6 foot away from him I realised it wasn't him after all.
Then I thought I'd rectify the situation by telling the stranger that I was sorry I thought he was someone else, which was why I was there, but he couldn't hear what I was saying, which made it worse because then I just looked like a crazy weirdo
so I just turned on my heels and walked the then miles back to my
friends who saw the whole thing....and were breaking their *hit laughing...
mortooooo.....

I'm like this too. My bike slipped on the ice yesterday just when I was ready to get off and lock it up when I got to work, two people came running over, I laughed...my friend said he'd have been mortified, I just shrugged my shoulders and inspected my poor bike. :pac:

I'm a running joke in school where I work. the yogurt topples over because of the weight of the spoon and spills, or I pour milk in my cereal and the carton decides to spray in all directions across the table.

I was peeling an orange once and the juice somehow squeezed out the side and shot off about about 3 feet to the left, hitting the dude next to me.

I've resigned myself to the fact that most food will fall off the fork and I'll walk into the table, chair, dishwasher door at least once a day. :rolleyes:

Not today but recently I was wearing an inside-out t-shirt in work for an hour or two before somebody pointed it out.

Hehe!

That happened me in college last week... I was wearing my cardigan inside out! A girl in my class pointed it out. If she hadn't, I would have been walking around with the tags sticking out all day!

Fago!

My mam playfully slapped me in the back of the head the other morning. I thought nothing of it.

Anywho I went about my day. Went to college, (Where people looked at me funny) got the dart and then bus to my radio station (People again looked at me smiling), went to McDonalds (People stared) and then got the bus home.

When I got home, I told my mam about the strange looks I was getting. She put it down to paranoia. As I walk away, she starts laughing.

"Ste I think I know why people were looking at you funny" then proceeds to take a post it with "I'm a big gaybo" written on it off the back of my head.

"I forgot I put that on you this morning".

Scarlet just thinkin of it.

BITCH!

Fago!

In the supermarket today, trying to carry a million things with my 5 year old in tow (trying to get him to carry a punnet of pears saying "pleeeeaaaaaseeee help me babes")

Some oul wan comes up to me and told me I reminded her of the women from that ad on the TV - where she has a hissy fit of a tantrum in the middle of the aisle.

Was mortified

Snap! Except my inside-out item of clothing was a chiffon and lace, crinkly, beaded top...

We were in the middle of a busy waiting room & my three year old daughter pipes up;

"You don't have a penis, do you mummy?".

"Er, no, dear".

"That's right, you a girl & girls have volvos"

Queue much sniggering. :o:o:o

Yesterday, I'm sitting in my car wholeheartedly singing away to myself. There may have been a hand dance involved.
When I became aware that a group of elderly gentlemen were staring. I blushed, they pished themselves laughing.

I guess I'm pretty exhausted 'cause I fell asleep for a bit earlier and was woken up by my phone ringing.

I answered, "Hello, River Island, Ilac Centre. How can I help you today?".

My mam almost died laughing on the other end of the phone!!!

They're lovely in RI in the Ilac. Two thumbs up from Blush!

They were filming stupid stuff in work today. Busy morning. No prior notice so I had virtually no make up, my hair was like a birds nest, and I was wearing really old, barely presentable clothes. All of a sudden, there's a camera in my face. I turn beetroot. I hate being conspicuous or the focus of attention. I'm mortified again thinking about it. Then I have to pretend to do my everyday work while trying to do some work.

Everyday in work I get the same thing for the gentleman I mind, he won't eat anything else. The deli staff always look at me like I'm nuts >.<

Recently enough, I was washing up after dinner when the soap shot up out of my hands, landed on the right side of the sink and slid like a skater on a half-pipe over the other side, up into the air and straight into the toilet bowl. I curse myself for not having a video camera taped to my forehead.

Got to the front of the queue at the bank today and as I walked to the window I was thinking "god, it's a bit breezy...cold even". I looked down and noticed that at least three buttons of my shirt were undone and there was a huge gaping hole. You could see pretty much everything, the cashier's face was priceless. I don't know how I didn't notice it sooner.

A lecturer called me out for "sleeping" in her lecture today. I literally blinked for too long and she made a big deal out of it! Was mortified:mad:

Fago!

Today for some reason I wasn't able to focus on anything.

On lunch I was reading the paper. Mate goes "What time is it?" I look at the top of the paper (Where the date is) and say "dunno it's not on the paper. someone must have scratched it off"

He looks at me with a giddy smile "Stephen you're an idiot"

It's currenty making it's way through work.
