Caught out

    So this morning I was on my way to the train, coming up behind a woman I see every morning (she lives down the road & gets the same train as me).

    Just as I was coming up along side her to overtake her, she let out a massive belch.
    I managed to contain my laughter and resisted the urge to look back at the expression on her face, but she immediately slowed her pace to allow me to get a bigger distance between us.

    So AHers, anyone here been caught out doing something embarrassing when you thought you were alone?

    You should have given her a firm corrective smack on the arse.

    I knew a girl who used orgasm when she sneezed and thought nobody was watching, like hell I wasn't! :pac:

    Public nose pickers are worse though- yes I did see you! :D

    People who think they're invisible behind the windows of their car. I do not want to see you picking your nose or squeezing a spot or mauling your girlfriend.

    It's a window, it's whole purpose is that you can see out and in.

    I get caught talking to myself all the time. I'd be mumbling away think of something, not realising that I'd be getting louder and louder, then I'd notice everybody looking at me! Embarrassing!

    You dont think that would be cringeworthy? Well it is round these parts!

    I second the motion. I'm not too sure what is embarrasing about it either. What's cringe worthy about belching?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    I woke up on the dart once and realized by what the people opposite me were saying that I had been talking in my sleep.

    I was mumbling about a new computer I was buying.

    Thankfully they got off at the next stop.....

    Depends what you're saying really.

    A normal one where it's done in your chest, or quietly isn't embarrassing.

    I'm talking about a full on, from the stomach belch.
    It was more of a Eudora Welty effort.

    Unfortunatley while out walking and wearing headphones, I succumbed to releasing a rather loud and proud fart only to be immediatley overtaken by two very fit looking girls out for a jog. I took off the headphones to hear them giggling as they ran away leaving me morto.

    From here on in it's either no headphones so at least I can hear people coming or a look behind if any bottom burps need releasing.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,632 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Nothing worse then farting on the way up the stairs in work, then someone comes out and starts chatting to you. The look of repulsion on their face because they know they didnt do it, so only leaves me to have done it!

    If she's hot then it's fair game to stare!

    I'm saying it's perfectly natural, nothing embarrassing about it, I think the OP is more embarrassed than the lady was.

    ?? I laughed, the girl was embarrassed....
    Not seeing what aspect of this scenario you're failing to grasp.

    Just because you wouldn't be embarrassed does not mean other people wouldn't be...

    Tesco carpark. Parked alongside someone oblivious.. He had just purchased one of those 'disposable' razors with a small trimmer in the handle.

    In awe of his purchase, turning the packet over, then struggling to wrench it from the plastic packaging. Once his beastly razor is freed, delicately starts trimming his knuckles, one by one, then, strangely, just part of one wrist, then a bit of hair on his other forearm, quite high up.

    Finally, looks up and sideways, like a dozey horse. Oh..

    I feel so childish laughing at these stories, but I almost always find them funny!

    Sometimes getting caught out can ruin the feeling of pride you get from releasing something rather special into the world...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 314 ✭✭skeg16


    it is so funny whenever I go to the toilet and realise I am not the only 1 in there.....I always let loose and fart all round me and then once I get out someone is standing there drying their hands so I give them a big awkward "Hi Tom".......scarlet

    that is the problem with cars, it's a defined personal space

    you don't have to interact with other road users if you don't want to

    and so motorists don't behave as nice as cyclists or motorcyclists or people on public transport or pedestrians
    :(

    You wouldn't feel shame, or a dent in your pride, or at the very least a little bit silly for being caught out talking to nobody but yourself?

    Ooookkkkaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

    Ah not at all newmug, arguing with yourself though on the other hand, that might be an eyebrow raiser alright! :D

    I lent a girl in work my work phone once when the battery ran out on hers. She handed it back to me a couple of hours later and I went to make a quick text, then realised the poor girl hadn't deleted a the fairly steamy texts between herself and her boyfriend! :D

    Are you talking about newmug being embarrassed about talking to himself or the OP story? I'm confused!

    Or more likely they overheard the music you were listening to on your headphones.

    I blocked a public toilet not so long back. The cleaner happened to be standing outside waiting to do my cubicle. Cue tutting and getting the plunger as I washed my hands "you won't unblock that with a stick", says i

    Feck sake missus, your entire embarrassment compass is out of kilter. You dont think belching in public is embarrassing, you dont think talking to yourself and getting caught is embarrassing, you think the OP should be embarrassed when it was someone else who belched, then you realise you made a mistake on the thread by not quoting the post you were responding to, and you feel embarrassed for me?

    I think you need to have that compass re-calibrated!

    Don't you feck sake missus me you little prick ( joking obviously) but it made me LOL.

    I don't think belching in public is that embarrassing.
    Talking to yourself is embarrassing.

    I was not aware I had to quote the OP, it's not my fault you thought I was talking to you. :p

    Getting caught doing it is, especially when its someone you know, and it was LOUD, as in the originanal post.

    Yes, it is, when you get caught.

    Well you learn something new everyday. If you just post something underneath another random post, people think you're responding to the post above. THATS why people quote the post relevant to theirs, you see it gives a bit of context. Another thing you can do is write "@ username", or put arrows to the post above if indeed that IS the one you are responding to. And it IS your fault for not knowing that. You confused several other posters too. But dont feel too embarrassed about it, we all make mistakes.

    I'm not embarrassed at all, maybe it was you who confused other posters.


    Newbie's have to learn, you know.

    Me and my friend were totally aceing a joint job interview we were having. Had the job virtually guaranteed until I let the longest, most repulsive fart ever. Interviewer wasn't impressed as we were in a small air-tight room and it smelt like onions and ketchup. Didn't get the job :(

    In my defence though I thought it was going to be silent.

Mortifed i had to go back up to the people to be handed back my wallet. i could feel the blood rush to my face :o
