Default Most Embarassing Moment in Your Life

I have many embarassing moments, but this is the first one that comes to mind.

I was walking my dog, Albert, in the neighborhood in the pouring rain at night. Naturally I had my umbella. All of a sudden Albert sees a squirrel and bolts after it yanking me off balance with the leash. Did I mention my umbrella was one of those nifty ones that close when you push the button? Of course I push the button and the thing shuts over my head. I can only imagine what I looked like at the moment ... a guy being yanked down the street by a dog ... with an umbrella shut over his head in the rain.

It took me about 20 seconds to get free because both hands were full.


OK. Your turn. What are your embarassing moments?

Well, there was that time I was introduced... at the girls basketball awards thing... as the "only guy I know that can eat an entire pickle in less than a minute." Or the time I had to flap my arms like a bird for speech.

About 8 years ago when i was in highchool i was eating lunch with some girlfriends of mine. Well a buddy of mine descided to pull my pants down in the middle of lunch. Since i had my lunch tray in my hand i couldnt do anything. All the chicks that i was setting with were staring at my member, along with the rest of the people in the cafe at the time. Which later actually turned out to be a good thing a few days later. But i wont go into detail on that.

Here's the short version... only for the ones with a strong stomach, consider yourselves warned.

Had dinner with some friends. Went to the movies with them. Didn't feel too well. Went back home by train, a ride of only 15mins. As soon as I sit down in the train, things start to get real awful. I get awfully sick and make haste trying to get to the bathroom in the train. The bathroom is too far. I can't hold back and puke heavily in one of the hallways. I walk back to my friends who have fallen dramatically silent We get to the station, a woman comes up and says she works for the railway company, and if we'd care to clean up the mess because it's real smelly. I freak out because I'm not drunk but really ill and does she expect me to carry a bucket with hot water around whenever I go on a train in case this happens?! Finally the doors open and we get out. The door of the hallway in question remains shut, for obvious reasons. I am ill for another 20 hours (it was what we called the 24hour virus... happened to a lot of our friends those days)

Sorry 'bout that, guys. Writing it all down kinda lowers the trauma in this experience for me. I don't think I've ever felt more ashamed than that day.

Not really embarrasing, but pretty amusing.

Yesterday I rented the movie Havoc from blockbuster. For those of you who do not know it have Anne Hathaway (princess diary disney movies) nude in it. Later that evening when I was on my way home from the gym I stoped back in to return my movies and check out two more (blockbuster pass). When the guy sees Havoc he asks "Hey man is this movie any good I heard it sucked.". I looked at him and the other guy and said "I dont know man, to be honest I took it home and fast forwarded to see the Princess naked." They looked at eachother and the looks they had were priceless. They just laughed, and I said "Im not gonna lie man, thats about all that movie was worth seeing." He just asked if she was hot, and I said that she had a nice body. He gave me my new movies, and I was on my way.

Im pretty sure that was the highlight of their work night

Read over you're presentation a couple of times to have a good knowledge of it, and while presenting try to look over the heads of those in the audience so you don't make eye contact for too long or anything (nothing worse than presenters who never look out at the crowd).




As for embarassing moments... hmm... I think this works.

A while back at Disney land in their old Mexican restaurant, I was in line to order food and all of a sudden the lady behind the counter practically tosses a plate full of very hot food right at my feet (and I am wearing shorts) which explodes when it hits the floor all over my legs tearing them apart with shards of ceramic and then getting hot beans and beef all over the wounds. So I hobble outside the restaurant with my mom and end up sitting against a wall with all this crap on my legs which are pretty badly torn up by the ceramics. And all the while I am asking for just a wash cloth, hot water, and soap from the restaurant people (none of which the could provide), while I am losing color and trying to keep from passing out with all this crap on me and people staring like "what the crap?" Eventually, my mom and I are shouting at these people for something to try and clean my legs up and then the Disneyland medical people show up and stick me in a wheelchair and cart me off through whatever parade they had at the time. So pretty much everyone in the park gets to see me in my near feinted state with all this crap all over my legs, and all of them have this look of "WTF?"

At least I got free tickets...
