Hell, I am ALL ABOUT embarrassing myself, I do it here daily!!! So I'll be the first one to go...
Don't remember if I told this story before or not...so if I did, sorry.
When I was 14, I was living in Honolulu (I was an Army brat)...anyway I was walking home from school and managed to somehow fall out of my slippa's (flip flops for all you haole's), and in falling out of them I put my left arm down to brace for impact causing my hand and forearm to be fractured in a spiral in multiple places. Anyway, being a bonehead, I changed clothes and went to my afterschool babysitting job...when the parents got home they noticed my arm had swollen to about 3x its size and was purple...they immediately called my folks who rushed me to Tripler where I was xray'd then put in a cast...the fun part of the whole tale--NOT--was explaining over and over that it happened because I fell out of my slippa's.
WHAT??? Everyone too chickensh*t to tell an embarrassing story...
Fine then, it's okay...I have more where that ^ ^ ^ one came from...don't make me carry this thread with all my stories of boneheadness.
just a few days ago i was exiting the locker room at school and i "thought" the door was unlocked and walked right into it....face first of course. Well not face first, it was more like hands push the door with the head in front, so you push the door with your hand and your head is 2 inches behind so if the door is locked it kinda hurts... =O ...nothing special lol
One time I was leaving lunch and I was talking w/my friends and I walked into a garbage can...I hit it making all the trash fall out...I was the laugh for about a week :P
another one of mine..during health cause i'm like a retart in that class...we have spinny chairs cause its in a tech room...so I was spinning and spinning...and my leg hit the desk and i went flying and my chair was still spinning...it was like a scene out of a movie...oh well...my friends still love my retartedness <3 lol
Once, my brothers put a big tall box over me and they snuck back inside, and i was waddling around in my parking lot talking to "them" aka, air. My neighbors got a kick out of it... "Talk to yourself much?"
tell you what?...that i still love you? that i want to be with you for the rest of our lives and that im stupid for leaving you? well thats what i wanted to say but like i said it wont change a thing, because you love ashton and i cant leave krystalynne.

Now for another tale from the life of a cgImagerian...
Just this friday...my friend tried stealing my fry on the lunch line...so I took it back and as a joke...I said hell no! and threw it into her plate...her spaghetti's sauce splattered on us all...not embarrasing but it was sorta like a movie scene to us lol
I think this one is cute and it involves a couple of members of my family. Shall we?
Story time ... "Grandma's Birthday Present"
This time it is my grandmother's birthday and we are all at my uncle's place. All the aunts and uncles and kids, cousins. My grandma lived to be 92 and my grandpa, 87 or 88, I can't quite remember, so I am fortunate to have their genes.
'K, this birthday, hmm, has to be somewhere in my grandma's late 70's, maybe early 80's. She had a very strong and straight back, and was quite active until the last few years of her life. Anyways, the kids would be playing around together, games and stuff, and the adults would sit and joke and tell stories. Then, we would eat, a barbeque most likely, with salads and buns. Nothing too fancy, but, good. After dinner, we would all sit around and watch as my grandma opened her presents.
Now, all day ... you could not tell anything was different. Lots of fun seeing my cousins, and good food. Then, open gifts, tea and coffee and some cake ... then goodbyes and goodnights and you were on your way home to sleep. This time was ... a little different.
And, now, you will learn of the origin of my inner 'imp.' Another case of inheriting some genes.
So ...
Grandma, is opening her gifts. To tell you the truth, at her age, I think everyone had difficulty trying to think of what to buy her as a gift. She had most everything, really. But she did love lilacs. So, it was not unusual to see lots of purple coloured things, clothes, and whatnot, as it was her favourite colour and then, lilac-scented you name it, lol. Bath oils, soaps, perfumes and and and ...
It was becoming a little bit of a joke, because, really, what do you buy an 80 year old woman as a gift? I think the home made birthday cards from us kids meant more to her than the other stuff. Alright on with the story ...
Gift after gift, is opened ... and here's the thing, my grandma never wasted anything ... so, she took great care in opening her gifts with the idea of re-using the gift wrap paper, lol. Cute? Eh? Surely, with all the paper that she saved she could have opened her own second hand wrapping paper store. Then, she is opening this one box and kind of stops and looks in ...
Her eyebrows come together and you can tell she can't figure what the present is, or is supposed to be. She is thinking hard and admittedly, everyone is sort of paying half attention and half talking to one another. Well, the change in her activity and silence has caught everyone's attention and they are starting to say, "Well, grandma what is it?" and "Take it out and hold it up so we can see." Ok, she does ..
... and what she is holding up is a pair of crotch-less leopard print panties, lololol ... from, yeah, my dad. The biggest 'imp.' Everyone starts to laugh and then, my grandma 'gets' what her present is and smacks my dad on the arm, jokingly, of course. She ended up laughing too ... but, yeah, was a little embarrassed. So, now you know where I get my 'imp' genes.
The best part, was that my dad never told anyone, not a single person. He took the time to go and buy it and wrap it up and must have snuck it in amongst the other presents, cause nobody in my family remembers seeing the gift before.

In 1994 I had a BAD allergic reaction and ended up on an ER table in respiratory arrest. Well a week and a half later (time spent in a coma in ICU), so I come out of it and feel like I'd been hit by a train...my doc comes in and is very cute...so mind you I am VERY high on morphine...as my doc leaves, I turn to my friend sitting there and say rather loudly (when you're stoned volume means nothing) that my doc had a cute ass and I wanted to grab it...my doc was maybe 10 feet away...DOH!!!!
**edit**
Did I mention I was badly bruised and generally looked like crap??? Apparently on morphine, looking your best doesn't matter when you see a hottie.
I'll tell a story about Lauren! It was about her 17 foot tall corn that she entered into the county fair!
When it was announced that she won the Ohioan Corn Crop Growing Contest Blue Ribbon Prize! or known as the OCCGCBRP in Ohio :P She ran up the steps and tripped!!! poor, poor Lauren! everyone laughed...but she still won!
A story about Lauren...sorry Lauren...I had to tell them :)

A friend of mine wanted to get a 'joke' gift as he was chosen as someone's "Secret Santa" and invited me along to do some other shopping as well.
So, where does one get the perfect, appropriate Secret Santa gift, you ask? Well, if you are a guy you head to an adult novelty store of course. Off we go.
Have to admit, it is an interesting foray into the darker side of consumer offerings once you are inside as there are a number of other items you can't help but notice. In my own mind, I am thinking; 'Just be cool ... no big deal ... don't do anything to embarrass yourself.'
So, my buddy and me are perusing the shelves and there were some very attractive women working as staff. Oops ... next aisle ... that is definitely not the perfect, appropriate Secret Santa gift. And all along our journey of discovery, from time to time one of the staff would come over to us and ask if we needed any help. "Uhm, no thanks ... just looking." Weird how those usual words take on a different meaning depending on the environment. We continue our 'looking' ...
Coming across ... and this is true, 'Electrical Toliet Paper' which was a dummied up ear of corn with a cord attached. Hmm, not quite right.
And again, another staff member would come over and ask again, "You sure you don't want some help?"
Odd.
Me and my friend, now a little more comfortable in our surroundings start to get our eyes up and off the floor and start to really look around. We had both, sort of put on horse blinders the minute we walked in.
"Hey ... Steve ... I think they are checking us out." Looking now, I see faint smiles directed our way from the girls working there. And they are having little discussions amongst each other ... and glancing our way. Ok, they were looking at me, more so ... and I know that might sound a tad conceited, but wait for it ...
A few more pointed attempts on their part to 'offer assistance,' more smiles ... now some giggles and my friend finally settles on his purchase. Off to the cash register we go, where I, we, my friend and me are greeted with some friendly and flirtatious banter with the girl and these parting words ... "Come back ... any time."
Out of the store and into the street ... we go. This is Christmas time here, and it was cold. Steve and me are recounting our experience and doing the guy thing, feeling pretty good about the fact that these girls clearly 'wanted us.' (Lol.)
Then ...
... hmm, feel a bit of a chill ... coming out the reverie of our close encounter with our fantasy maidens ... is when I took notice of where that chill was coming from ...
My zipper on my pants had been down ... alllll the way down ... for the entire time I had been in the store. So, not quite the conquest, nor was my interpretation of the friendly smiles anywhere near on the mark. :oPP

When my hubby & were dating, many many moons ago ....his best friend wanted to double date one night. No problem. Except that Rick, the friend, decided he wanted to see something called the" quarter flicks. " Which, coming from a very small one horse town like I did, I'd never heard of. So I said okay.
So off the four of us go. Except, I found that we were headed for an Adult Theatre in Cleveland. Being only 19, I KNEW there was no problem here.....we were too young to get in.
The guys paid our way & in we sailed. Rick headed right for the back where there was this black curtain & behind the curtain he went. So we all followed & I had no idea what was going on.
There was a very dark corridor & a series of doors & Rick & my hubby started knocking on doors until they found an empty one. I did ask why they just didn't open the doors & look & got such a "Can you be so stupid" look that I just shut up. The answer is YES, I was that stupid.
So the 4 of us went in the teeniest, tiniest cubicle I've ever seen in my life. It had to be all of 2 x 2 foot square....I swear ! And 4 of us squeezed in there. Completely dark, no lights, & a wooden bench on the back wall with a small projector sticking out. And a small black box on the side wall.So Rick stuck some quarters in the box & all of a sudden a silent, B&W movie started to play on the opposite wall. You guessed it, an xxxx movie. I was so shocked ! I had never seen anything like that before & now I was seeing it with a boy !!! I refused to sit on the bench & wouldn't touch the walls & we all had to stay until Rick bled us all dry of quarters, because the movie stopped every 30 seconds, I swear.
I was never so embarrassed in my life & couldn't wait to get out of there !
It might've even been less...lol...then I found out quarter flicks were in the back of Adult Bookstores too.....What an education I got that night ! :D
(*counting*) ... 11, 12, 13 ... oh, hey ... that was a good good one Lauren, lololol ... just seeing how many quarte ... uhm, nvm. :oP
Once at university, a bunch of us ... both genders here ... thought it would be 'funny' to do similarly and en masse we went to the local skin flick theatre. Feeling pretty good from having come from the pub where the idea had originated, we paid and went inside ... just as one was starting. Lol. It was a takeoff on the Archie comic book characters. And in this one ... ahem ... Jughead was rather impressive. But ... the jokes ran out pretty quick and then as we started to take in our surroundings, and some of the other viewing audience ... the overwhelming thought amongst us all ... was ... "ohhhh, I think I need a shower ... a very 'Silkwood-ish' like, long shower" ... yeah, we sheepishly and very quickly departed. *shudders at the thought still*
And the real funny thing? No one talked about it the next day or thereafter. Just some nods of acknowledgement at the table the next day and that was that.
LOL.....I might be generous when I say a 30 second clip....maybe it was 10 seconds....Too much money & no way, no how was I touching anything in that booth !
lol, wow. You were 19, Lauren? The age just keeps getting younger and younger! I don't think we have anything like that around here though..
Anyway..
My Grandma and Grandpa are both active members in the local branch of the Lions Club (assuming we all know what that is), and one day while i was riding in with her we passed a Lions den... Being a young, innocent and un-knowing child, i asked my grandma if that was the club they were a part of. Her reply? "No- That's naked people!"
And now, as a teen, i finally understand what the heck she meant..

I once walked into Andrew while I was looking at him..that was dumb because I didn't realize he was there. It was today....no....I think it was Monday, anyway he felt stupid. Then I walked into an opening automatic door and Andrew was there again...still feeling stupid. He said "i think life hates me...among other things." I agreed and went home.
Ok....so, I saw this thread yesterday and I promised myself I wouldn't post on it....as things don't go so well for me when I get embarassed but I just couldn't resist the temptation :) Heres an embarassing story of mine, not the best but I couldn't stand posting anything really juicy, I'd be humiliated. :)
A few weeks ago I went to West Virginia with my cousin, Alex....you all should know her, she barely comes on the site any more....any way, we stopped at a gas station and went into get some food and this rather obese (not trying to be mean here people but he was very big) kid was outside. Alex looked back at him before she came in the car, with the door still open and just told me "Man, that kid is fat" aaand he happened to be looking our way when she said that. I felt really bad for the guy and interrogated her for the rest of the ride home. She can be SO blunt sometimes when she dosen't even know it. :P
Aww that is cruel : ( I do believe we have all done something like that before. Once, my mom was in a store and she accidently stepped on this old womans foot (ever so lightly) and the woman went off on her! She went through the store hollering and yelling "This fat _____ stepped on my foot!!! I should sue her!!!" and on.. and on.. and on.. Turns out, the woman had alzheimer's and she didn't know what she was doing!

To tell you the truth, I don't really know :( I'm one of those people that just put their headphones on and tune everything out until we get there. :-/ But I know it's somewhere around Petersburg.

Close enough ... see you 'there' ... hmm, at noon tomorrow ... girl? we gotz some shopping to do!!
Yep, way, way, way, way too much caffeine. :o)
Hmm, let's see? ... have I ever embarrassed myself?
Oh ... oh ... told you it was too quiet, I feel a 'story' coming on ... quick! ... run for it, while you can!!
I had a friend like Alex, you'd swear the guy was absolutely deaf. And to make matters worse, if you pointed out his social faux passsss, and there were many ... his volume and protestations grew even more horrid. For example;
"WHAT ... WHAT?? ... WHAT'D I SAY?? WHO?? THAT PERSON RIGHT OVER THERE?? I DIDN'T SAY THAAAAT!!! I WAS JUST MAKING A POINT, THAT IT ISN'T OFTEN YOU SEE SOMEONE WITH TWO NOSES!!"
Laughing my ass of over here :D Your funny on caffiene, I should load you up with a few pots of coffee and sell you to the circus! Lol, joking of course, I love you too much to sell you to the circus....I'd use you for my own profit. :)

That's ok Andrew ... I wasn't listening to you and missed what you said, I was listening to some music ... d( --__ -- )b
Hey, there you go ... anyone tried ... and I am sure you have ... to conduct a conversation while listening to music with the headphones on? Without fail, what you think is 'ok' speaking volume ... isn't.
Next time, try it ... and watch as heads whip around violently in your direction as you 'speak.' Maybe a movie theatre isn't the best place to try this as I did. :o(
I have a terrible memory, I think that causes my more embarrasment than anything... often I will think of something, and go to tell somebody about it, and by the time they ask me what it was I can't remember... or I get in the car to go somewhere and I have to ask where we were going again... it makes me feel dumb...
alrighty, I don't know if it qualifies as embarrasing, butttttttt… I have this slight technical totally psychological problem. I can't tell left from right when I'm in a car. I mean, I can tell you when I'm OUT of the car. and I'm the best navigator for my extremely dyslexic godmother cuz I point and say make a "that-a-way" and make a "this-a-way" (interestingly enough, that is always left, and this is always right, don't ask, k?) but anyways… the following statement has been known to be heard in my car:
Lol. I know you ... don't I? You were the one that was supposed to give me directions as to where I was going to pick up Sam ... that is, if he remembered to be there ... and I followed your this-a-way's and that-a-way's and ended up in a corn field in Ohio somewheres. :oP
(p.s. That last part was for Freddy. :o) )
I am so kidding. 'Cause for me, a similar thing happens to me once I am inside a building. I become a whirling dervish of arms should someone ask which way is which, or which way is a restaurant, store and so on.
I have extremely hair. I look like Will Ferrell hosting an 80's game show. I despise my locks and so does everybody else who I have asked, but I don't have the courage to confront my hairstylist.

I cry @ soppy movies. like… alot… and then everybody else points and laughs @ me. I am my father's child. I am a mushball. fortunately i'm not as bad as he is.
Today..I tripped over a wire and spilled my drink all over this woman and well she was wearing one shirt and umm...what happens when you wet your shirt? O_O
