Share your embarrassing moment here...

A few weeks ago I was just minding my own business walking down the street, a man started chasing me shouting very loudly 'excuse me, you've got something hanging out of your bottom'!! He grabbed hold of my arm and told me again 'there's something hanging out of your bottom'. It turned out to be my scarf blowing behind me in the wind! I told him what it was and he said rather snottily 'I was just trying to save you some embarrassment'. Yeah, don't shout and grab me in the street if you want to save me any embarrassment and next time go to Specsavers

The week of our wedding I was meeting a lot of my husband's college friends. For 2 years I had heard about "Cho" but never saw a picture. I answer the door and this huge guy with red hair and a lumberjack type beard/mustache saus "Hi I'm Cho". I look at my husand and say "But he's not Chinese" Thought I was whispering but he heard. Turns out "Choo" was his nickname since she was a railroad engineer. Luckily he laughed and we became friends.

My DH and I were going to get on MARTA (transit system) in Atlanta- heading up I had the choice of the escalator or the stairs. I chose the stairs and started at a fast(ish) pace. I tripped once, fell down but got up and kept going. Now, DH is beside me on the escalator and there are people coming down the stairs. So I continue at the fastish pace and tripped and fell again. I couldn't even look over at DH bec I knew he'd seen both times. I was dying of embarrassment but just brushed it off like no big deal. I'm such a spaz!

I was tempted to go all Buffy on him

When I was 18-ish, I had been talking to a guy for a while on the phone. We agreed to meet up in a very public setting - my cousin's wedding. I looked AMAZING in my cute strapless dress. When it came time for the bouquet toss and the guy still hadn't arrived, I decided to participate. I jumped up to catch the bouquet, but my dress didn't! I tried pulling it up in mid air, but instead fell and landed on a table where an old guy was sitting (he was quite amused). I ran into the bathroom to hide. About 20 minutes later, I came out of the bathroom and the guy I was waiting for was right there and said, "I caught the show." I was never so mortified.

Ripped my shorts at Arches NP in July. Had no idea as we walked into the visitor center with out 10 million other people. My DH was right behind me but obviously wasn't checking out my ass with the ripped shorts and bright pink panties showing.
He went to the restroom and I went inside with my back to the entrance doors bending over looking at a display. Lady took pity on me and rushed over to give me the bad news. At 51 I was only slightly mortified. Made my DH go get my hoodie out of the car to wrap around my waist.

When yesterday's panties fell out of my '2nd day pants'. At work. While standing, talking to a group of people.

You win!

Last week DH and I flew to San Antonio. It's been 20 years since we have flown with checked baggage, and we ended up in the wrong place at the airport. We ended up going through TSA screening with the suitcases we had intended to check. Don't bother asking how stupid you have to be to do this, because I'm still trying to figure it out.
Because our luggage was already on the belt, they wouldn't let us go back and check it. They confiscated all my hair products, perfume, contact solution, Lysol spray, DH pocket multi tool, and 6 bottles of ice tea. We held up the luggage search area for almost 20 minutes, as he unrolled every sock, and searched every crevice of our suitcases. The TSA agent was actually really cool, and posed for a selfie holding my gallon zip lock bags when I told him I was a scrapbooker. He even joked about having more than just The Alamo to remember about our trip.

When I texted my kids the picture DS texted back with what will be the title of the scrapbook page... "When you walk in gangsta Notorious B.I.G. and walk out shamefaced Nefarious O.L.D.".

i was in my mid-20s and had a cute new outfit for work. i did my make-up and spent extra time on my hair. i thought i looked good!!

i walked up the street, waited for my streetcar, got on and everyone was looking at me. i thought "dang, i really do look good". the streetcar was jam packed and the driver tells everyone to move down the car (i didnt' get a seat). i moved down and this guy that had a seat jumped up and followed me down the car!

i got off at a very busy intersection, waited and then transferred to my second streetcar. people were still looking at me. i thought to myself, i really should spend a bit more time in the morning, it makes a BIG difference.

i dinged the bell for my stop, walked down the stairs and into the street. i happened to smooth down the side of my skirt and realized THERE WAS NOTHING THERE. the entire back of my skirt was tucked into my pantyhose. my butt was hanging out the entire way to work and NO ONE thought it would be a kind gesture to let me know... wasn't even wearing cute undies, it was the old, faded, ripped period panties. UGH.

for the next several months, i went to work early to avoid seeing any of the same people. totally embarrassing.

That reminds me of something I did! I drove to my friend's house to pick up her daughter named Destiny. This is the jist of the conversation.

Me:
I'm outside

Person I thought was Destiny:
Who is this?

Me: It's me M, isn't this Destiny?

Person I thought was Destiny: What?

Me: Isn't this Destiny's phone number?

Person I thought was Destiny: This is Patrick

I probably scared the poor kid!
I'm outside. Isn't this destiny?

Tasha, the same thing happened to my friend. She had 3 little kids at the time. Pulled in the driveway and everyone was sleeping, she was tired so she leaned her head back and decided to nap also. Her neighbour came and knocked on the window and woke everyone up. She was so mad and still tired! I would do the same thing if I saw that in my neighbourhood.
