Well, we've already got 'Post a Picture of yourself' so I thought I would make this forum a little bit more interesting. Its pretty easy, all you do is write down your most embarassing moment. You can have more than one (im gonna have like 50) to make it more interesting!

Let the cringing, the OMGing and the LMFAOing begin!

I'll start with mine:

Yesterday: I was in the supermarket with my mum and brother. I was having an argument with my brother, so my mum suggested I walked off and cooled down. As I was walking around I saw my brother looking at the crisps, so I decided to throw a bag at him. It hit him on the neck and as I grinned he turned around and it wasnt my brother. Actually my brother and mum was watching me and laughing. I said sorry to the man about 100000 times and I was bright red for hours.

I worked at a restaurant a few months ago and it was one of my first days when a television company were in the building (the restaurant is in a museum) making a cut for the news later that night about a new fair. So, they went up to eat at our restaurant and as they rised up from their seats I thought: "well, why don't I just take their glasses" since there was somebody else getting their plates. I went and got all of them on a tray, about 15 of them, when suddenly one guy showed up again and wondered "why are you taking our glasses?"
In that moment I realized that they'd just gotten up their seats to get dessert, and that the other guy getting their plates were getting them because they were bringing new dessert plates. But the glasses filled with drink were supposed to stay. And stuuuupid me had messed them up and no one knew whose glass was whose. So I got them all new 15 glasses + new drinks.
Fun? No.

A minor one, but something my mom hasn't let me live down for the past few years:

My mom is from the South (North Carolina); my dad is from the North (Pennsylvania). As far as the US is concerned, they are very different accents - think Sawyer for the South, and Jack (from Boston? if I recall correctly) for the North. They don't sound at all alike. My mom was also born a long time ago (1938), so she actually is really Southern, culturally (my dad was born in 1954 - go mom! Heh). I grew up in New York. As a result, I make fun of my mom's accent a lot, in a good-natured way.

A few years ago, we got a Chesapeake Bay retriever. That breed of dog is also from the South, more or less (Maryland). My mom decided to name the dog Dixie (a term for the South) because of that. We have this cheesy thing where we talk to the dog in the worst Southern accent imaginable because she 'is Southern' (despite the fact that she's lived all her life in the North.)

So one day I was talking to Dixie in the Southern accent, and said, 'You like it when I'm talkin' to ya in the Suth'un accent, don't you? You like it because it sounds slow and stupid.' I had no idea my mom was in the next room until she burst out laughing at that. I didn't even mean to say that, anyway.

She has never let me live it down in the past year or two. Every time someone in the house references her accent, it's 'Southern, slow and stupid' now. Argh!

I've got so many! I'll tell ya's my most recent one.

While in NJ on holiday, we flew kites every night on the beach. I was having trouble with a particular kite because it needed a specific amount of weight on the tail in order for it to balance itself in the air and not nosedive. So, my dad in his infinite wisdom rigged it perfectly so that it had just the right amount of weight and was ready for take off.

We were heading down to the beach, walking down the little wooden planks and my dad was about 20 feet in front of me carrying it. Some other people, a family with kids, were hanging out there too. WELL, my big mouth screams to my dad ahead of me, "You're definitely gonna get it up tonight!" REAL LOUD! And the people on the beach started laughing histerically! I was imaginably in shock for saying it, let alone saying it so loudly and to my DAD!

The lady on the beach says, "That's alright honey, we knew what you meant". My shock and embarrassment was funny enough and my mom lost it and almost peed her pants.
