What is the most embarrassing thing that you have been through

On the bus again with my niece a week or two back (school holidays) she saw a coloured gentleman get on, and said in a very loud voice 'look a chocolate man!' fortunately he laughed, as did all the bus!!

We went to look at some houses today and saw one that was really grubby and needed a good clean.

Went onto the next one, we are just going through the door when my six year old pipes up "Mummy, do you think that they will have CLEANED this house or will it be disgusting like the last one?".

Cue red faces and a fast exit . . . . . moral of the store, get MIL to babysit next time!

This thread has made me laugh so much - thank you all :T

I think one of my best moments was having to ring work early one Sunday morning (I was due to start at 10am) to say I'd be late because I had a hamster stuck on my thumb....:eek:

I'd been cleaning out the cage, and had to wake the little critter up to get to the bedding. Said critter was not impressed with being woken. Have you ever seen the SIZE of hamster teef?!

I managed to get the hamster off my thumb, but ended up in Casualty with a teatowel wrapped round my hand.

I noticed that my pet hamster had two small lumps. Took him to vet. Paid a fortune to be told "those are his testicles, madam".....

I just can't believe it! I've done EXACTLY the same thing :eek:...

Except, it was years ago when I was younger. I woke my dad up shouting "Wake up! The hamster has a tumour! The hamster has a tumour dad!"

One we got downstairs I turned him over in his plastic tube only for my dad to say unamused "That's his balls, Tracy, now get to your bed."

I'm terrible at recognising faces - especially people I've only met once or twice.

Last year we went on holiday and had to wait at a taverna for several hours to get across to an island. We ended up talking to some fellow travellers for a while. Later that evening, after consuming a few drinks with dinner, OH says to me, that couple we were talking to are at the table behind you. So when we got up to leave, I turned around and said, 'have you had a good day'. They looked at me a bit oddly - when OH said, no not that table, the next one....... Ooops..... The couple we'd met before had a good laugh and ended up pouring more wine down my neck. Wish the ground could have opened up and swallowed me.......

When I was about 9 my friend was having a sleep over at my house. We decided to be sneaky and stay up late watching her portable telly in my room. When the reception picked up one of channel 4's old "sex tip" programmes on after 11pm. We knew it must have been naughty because the word sex was very rude and decided it to ''dare'' one another to watch for a few minutes before being grossed out. In this short time we heard the word G Spot being mentioned and we wondered what on earth this could be be, not realising how bad it would be if we asked my friends mum what it was.

To which she replied with a red face, that she had "Absolutely NO IDEA!" what that was and "Where did you hear that word from?!"

To which we replied "Some boys in the park".

Went for an interview once and before I sat down to wait to be seen, visited the loo to redo my lipstick and hair. It was a group interview so had some sitting about and waiting and plenty of water to drink.

After another 1/2 hour I purposefully walked to the loo, charged through the door only to realise it was the mens. Worst still the man at the urinals not only saw I had walked into the wrong room but was also on the interview panel.

Needless to say I didnt get the job

some of these are hilarious - I'm getting funny looks from laughing so hard in work!

One I can remember right now happened a few years ago in my local library. I was being served by a rather large lady, and as I was taking books out she obviously asked for my library card. I handed it over...only to discover I had accidentally handed her my gym card.
She went completely mental, asking was I trying to give her a hint etc etc. Everyone heard her (since a library is so quiet) and turned to look. I just grabbed my bag and fled. Left the card and books there.
Never went back to that library again - used to get the bus to the further away one just in case!

This reminds me that I once tried to get books out at the library using my Legoland pass.

I also once tried to return a CD at a shop, but I'd forgotten to put the disc back in the case - the guy in the shop looked at me like I was some sort of con-artist when he saw that it was empty.

One particularly mortifying moment I remember was when I subconsciously pulled up my tights (you know, by grabbing them through my skirt) right in front of my really cute biology teacher. He must have thought I was trying it on, or something - I've never seen anyone raise their eyebrows so high...

I have another one.

A good few years back before I had my car I was on the way to the bus stop and saw the bus coming. So I started to run and I was practically at the door when the bus driver closed the doors and drove off.

I could see people on the bus staring at me laughing so I just carried on running to make it look like I wasn't running for the bus, I was so embarrassed.

You've just made me remember the time when I'd just had a job interview, so was wearing a shirt. And as I was on the way to the bus stop I saw the bus, so ran. I have quite large boobs, but wasn't wearing a sports bra so they bounced a lot and managed to unbutton my blouse and I didn't realise until after I gave the bus driver an eyeful

I used to be a vet nurse, people bringing in their pets with mysterious "lumps" was a weekly if not daily occurrence.....you are not alone ladies
