Embarrassing moments in life

I thought I'd try starting a thread which doesn't offend anyone today :D

Who cares to share their most embarrassing moments with the forum?
These are the moments when you wished that the world would open up and you'd disappear down the hole

I don't mind getting the ball rolling;

My most embarrassing moment was probably when I was 14 and running in the 4x100m relay at school. My race kept getting put back and as time went on I started to really need to pee. There weren't any toilets for some distance and I kept getting told the race was soon. About an hour later when the race was finally about to start I was really hurting but managing to keep it in; but then came the gun. I was running the second leg (thankfully furthest away from the crowd) and the effort needed to sprint resulted in complete loss of bladder control. I must have looked like such an idiot peeing while running, lol.
Not one of the other runners ever mentioned it, I had to find my mum to get my jogging bottoms, she saw I was soaking wet but also never mentioned it either. I think the silence made it all even more ambarrassing

Can someone else please post now so I don't get left looking like the only idiot ;)
 
Getting fired 24 years ago, when I was 24, for poor performance on the job was bad. I was fired on Friday and didn't tell my wife until Sunday night. I figured she would have figured something out on Monday morning when I didn't get dressed to go to work.

Man, I really feel for you there, makes mine seem pretty tame
 
When I was an LEO, I was anwering a loud party complaint, and during the day it had been raining and the temp was around 30 degrees, and there were puddles of ice here and there in pockets on the street.

I was walking up to the house where a rather large congregation of teenagers were gathered (drinking), and I slipped and fell straight on my back, my PR-24 went flying, my gun fell out and went sliding to the right of me, my cuffs fell out of the case, and my ego and butt was bruised, LOL.

Like a church chior in sync, I heard the loudest thunder of laughter and clapping.
 
I feel for you on that one as I also have an ice story!

I was at sixth form college and was cycling along the road towards the college gates. I noticed a girl I liked standing with a group of friends by the wall and took one hand of the handlebars to wave just at the point when I rode onto sheet ice. Suffice to say I went in one direction, the bike went in the other - it was not a soft landing!!! The girl in question seemed to find the whole thing quite amusing as I sheepishly hobbled away half carrying and half pushing my bike with its recently buckled wheel!
 
I have two.

Once I was at a gas station with my (then) girlfriend. We were getting something and at the cashier I thoht I saw a little kids light up toy or whatever. Upon closer inspection it was actually a woman's light up vibrator toy. Why it was at the gas station, I don't know. But I immediately looked up and said "I had no idea waht that was" and some guy was like "yeah, sure you didn't" and my girlfriend promptly decided it to be one of the funniest moments of her life and shared it with a multitude of people.

Second. I had just woken up in the morning. I was in my sleeping clothes, i put on a shrit and I misbuttoned it (like the buttons didn't match, and I went outside with my dog. I'm sure there was like drool on my face and my eyes were half closed. Just as I was leaving the garage, this car filled with really hot girls passes by and they smile wave and say "hiii!". Needless to say I muttered sometihng like "dammit..." and went back inside to wash my face.

But, ya know, that was one of the best things to happen to me!!! I hated that job, which contributed greatly to the poor performance, and had spoken to the local university about starting a graduate Master's program in biology. I had a major professor agree to take me and all. The only thing holding me back was I was reluctant to give up a paycheck. Once I didn't have that paycheck, the wife said, "Why don't you start your graduate program now?" We can get by on my paycheck for a few years. I stopped working fulltime for 3 years, scraped by and got a job just before graduating 4 years later.

For the last 15 years, we have lived comfortably and the wife has been able to be a stay-at-home mom because of the way my career turned out.

Fate is a powerful force.
 
At my old school I was sort of playfighting with a girl in my class, we were just joking around. She walked towards me trying to poke me, and I walked backwards, the plan was to wait for her next attack and grab her by the head and swing her around (like I had learned at my jujitsu class).
However, what I had forgotten was that behind me there was a huge crate with a flowerbed in it. As I took one step back I tripped into it and landed on my back in all the flowers, ruining the entire thing.. in front of pretty much the entire school :p
 
A few of years ago I was teaching an adult English class and at the break I checked my hair in the mirror in the teacher's room and, to my horror, my zipper was down! :11doh: You could see my green boxer-briefs plain as day. Not one student mentioned it. To this day I always double check it right before I enter the classroom.

Reminds me of my music teacher once. He had tucked his shirt in his jeans, his zipper was open and the shirt was sticking way out of the hole. For the entire lesson he walked around like that and the class was trying to hide their laughter, in vain ofcource. I wonder if he ever knew what we were laughing about..
 
i went to turky in 2005 and sat around the pool most of the time lots of people walking past chatting as you do .I wore a pair of track shorts for the whole 2 weeks and fell asleep quite a few times in that heat. When we got home and looked at the photos my left testical was hanging out of my shorts on all of the pics

Haha that is hilarious. So is that you in the avatar on your next vacation?
 
Ran into the coach on the 40 yard dash and broke the stop watch.

And one time in a military program I was in back when I was 13, I was talking to a friend and I sayed "our new officer aint as good as the old one". He was standing right behind me......
 
Well, this isn't really funny, but I felt really really bad.

I was at some friends' house, and my friend's mother-in-law was there. She and I ended up in the front yard, looking at a screech owl in a pine tree.

She said, "Sissy used to see these at her house all the time"

I said, "Screech owls always sort of creep me out, b/c of the old wives tale about them."

She said, "What old wives tale?"

I said, "That when you hear a screech owl, someone is going to die."

Ok, you would think innocent enough comment right? WRONG!!!!
About half way through that sentence, I clicked.....

Sissy, that always saw them at her house? Yeah, that would be this woman's daughter. Her only daughter who was tragically killed in a car accident along with her only granddaughter (who was 2 years old).

It struck me when I was too far into saying it to say anything else, the ending of my sentence just sort of faded out slowly, so I'm sure she could tell that I realized what I was saying and felt bad. At least, I truly hope she could tell that I didn't mean to say something so insensitive. Sometime later, I mentioned the incident to my friend, just in case her mother in law ever brought it up, she could maybe explain that it was a complete accident.
