Confessions: Embarrassing situations

You really should've.  That' would've livened up the party

[Little Mac]

Yeah, but I'd avoid mentioning a "climax" while you're telling them how drunk you were; at least not in English (where it might have some inappropriate connotations).

True, that was rather to illustrate how the situation would be...

That or you could've flashed your legs at them they would've just welcomed you

If that's the worst you have experienced, I think your life has not yet started...

I mean, see how high /LA has set the embarrassment bar for us!

i said it's ONE of the embarrasing moment
i have 2 "bathroom accident" like LA :
1) i was drunk (i never drink booze before & AFTER it, i promise!), and i ALMOST entered woman's room in a pub. luckily,the guard there showed me the way to men's room.

2) i was in a hospital, visiting a friend, and in a hurry to go to bathroom, so i entered the
"hospital staff only" bathroom. and when i come out, there were 3 nurses & 1 man (maybe a janitor) staring at me. (i should have said "in sweden, people share!" )

I don't know if that excuse will work all the time.  What if the response is, "Well, howdy-do, this isn't Sweden!".

My "big" moment also is connected to the restroom; or toilet, anyway.  When I was first out on my own in the world, I lived in an apartment where the toilet kept running - the water kept flowing into the tank, and down into the bowl.  Out of frustration I reached into the tank and wiggled/jiggled the hardware there, hoping to make it stop.  Apparently it was all corroded anyway, as it came apart with the force of the water pressure. 

Water shot (clean water, thank God!) shot all over my bathroom, made a hole in the ceiling 6 feet above, and soaked me completely.  In the ignorance of youth, I freaked out.  I didn't know what to do to make it stop, so I called 9-1-1; after all it was an emergency, wasn't it?    They suggested that I call my landlord to see what I should do, and if that did not resolve it, they could have the water turned off to the whole building.  So I called my landlord, and he said, "Turn the water off."  "Where??!!!"  "The knob under the toilet."  Doh!  I didn't know about that.   

In a few minutes, 9-1-1 called back to see if I still needed help.  I'm sure they're still laughing about the crazy guy whose toilet exploded...

LOL! Do you see the connection to my experience, in a moment of confusion you didn't leave the restroom (didn't look for a knob to turn off the water), instead you freaked out!

What an emergency...

HIGHES score so far  you're the champ LM


P.S. hey SOYA, about your signature, have you watched FULL METAL ALCHEMIST?

What haven't I watched?  Just another title in my long list of 300+

For LM's case, if it's any consolation, at least he didn't have to encounter the 911 crew face-to-face as in LA's case.

[ganda]

including 911 in a "toilet accident" is a super serious issue, no need face to face situation. i think we should gain more "embarassment database" here, and make a POLL in the end of it to decide the embarrasment king

OK, i don't like anime, but this FMA is an exception for me (beat that water turning men into a woman and fat panda )

I crapped my pants two times in school. The second time it was in the teacher women's bathroom, my biology teacher came in and she saw me naked butt. Okay that's enough outdoing y'all for now.

hi searinox . you're the king and biology teacher?... that's just perfect

Worst moment of my life:

I'm 16 (my birthday) girlfriend and I had been celebrating with some booze (yer yer i know, only 16 and all that...) we drank better part of a litre of Vodka, when her parents came home, we thought they'd gone away for a couple of days 

Anyway, we try to get our act together to go and meet them (first time for me). we get down stairs and I'm swaying back and forth, eventually It had to come out, it did, all over her dads shoes!!!

Needless to say I was persona no gratis for a very long time. I still feel the shame to this day and it's a good few decades later.

Toggie!
