Most Embarrassing Moment

I was on holiday with my husband in Phuket and we had just gotten back from scuba diving. We started taking our wet suits off in front of the shop as there were tables and chairs out front and it was nice and sunny. I suddenly felt this hushed quiet. I had worn a bikini underneath, and i had inadvertantly mooned a street full of people.

I had "the snip" in Qatar in 1986 (I believe the first ever in the state) and had to provide an after op sperm sample.

I had agreed to take the sample back at 1pm and was set up good and proper as I walked into QP Medical Center Reception with about 30 people waiting.

The Dr (an English one) was waiting and shouted across the reception "have you got it?" To which I replied "yes".

He then shouted "Hows your right arm?"

why still up this time? how are you?

Traveling from Paris to New York a few years ago with a crew. I'd done some shopping in Paris so I went and got the VAT refund forms checked and stamped by French Customs. Then I mailed them in a letter box in the terminal.

I went to the check-in desk. "Passports and tickets please."

"Of course.... Wait... Oh my God."

I'd mailed them. Our Paris bureau chief was with me so he makes a call to the local post office and explains the situation. They say they'll send someone.

Then the police arrive and cordon off the area around the mailbox in the terminal. There's an abandoned bag. Then the bomb disposal expert arrives.

And all the time I'm gone "what have I done!" The clock is ticking. Bomb disposal experts declares the bag a false alarm.

Eventually postal employee arrives and retrieves the passports and tickets with just a few minutes to spare.

Very red face.

my first visit to the UK, like about 10 yrs ago. My husband to be took me to the local chinese take away. The chinese girl there talked to me in very thick north east accent. I told her, "Sorry i don't speak chinese".

My husband and my step kids all laughing their head off ... :-(

Well, randr88, lucky for you Sweden is such a openminded country. :)

yes in fact they did, but a very friendly and down to earth transvestite.....

I guess the passengers then realised you were a transvestite, right?

I was on tram in my native Stockholm and braless as usual. My blouse was torn by a broken window handle and ripped from my body. I bent over to pick up the torn blouse and my mini skirt ripped in two and fell to the ground. There I was on the tram.... guess the rest.

in Madrid I took the underground. I didn´t realise that my blouse was wide open and I had no bra on. Only when I noticed that absolutely everbody in the wagon was looking at me in a funny way, I looked down and understood why. I buttoned up and left as soon as the metro reached the following station.

In a wedding party at one of the most prestigious bull liverstock owner of my country. The party was in his amaizing farm and I did a stupid bet that I could stand in front of a small bull with a piece of scarf. Of course, I was pretty drunk at the time. So, somehow, I found myself running in a muddy place with a rather big baby bull following me up close. I fell in the mud and totally ruined my clothes. At some point, someone came to my rescue before the bull could cause me any real damage.

I swear...I am a little flower when i am asleep or unconscious... Please dont rule me out, JoanT

.. I could see by the twinkle in your eye that you are a little scallywag!

Remind me NEVER to accept a bottle of fizzy drink from you.

I know you aren't a Greek, but that old saying: 'beware a Greek bearing gifts' springs to mind ;o)

My most embarassing moment was also my most painful. I was just eight. There was this lady in my pop's office whom i didnt like one bit. A little stuck-up, if you ask me.

So we were on this picnic from my pop's office and she asked someone for a bottle of Thums-up (a drink in India similar to pepsi or coke). I jumped up and volunteered. She gave me the regular "ooh-la-la, such a sweet boy" etc and i went on my ay to fetch a bottle of thums up.

Since it was a picnic, there were lots of bottle around. Some of them were half drunk, some had a little left. I took the half full bottle and collected the stuff from the rest of the bottles together. It still wouldnt fill, so i went to the loo and poured in some pipe water. All smiling and shiny faced, i went and offered the drink to her.

"Ooh-la-la, what a wonderfully behaved boy" she said and i burst out laughing. She was asking me to share the joke and i did. Later, they said that they saw her scream and run away from me, while i was rolling around in laughter.

The laughter died when my pop came and caught me off the ground, by the ear. I got the spanking of my life. It was painful...

Then there was this time when i always used to shake the softdrink bottles hard before offering it to someone, unopened. It was fun to see the drink spill all over them. Once it backfired as i was made to open it myself. Aparrently, my dad had seen me shake the bottle before opening it.

Sometimes, these dads can be real spoilsports, cant they? hehe

How are you today?

Just wish that i would never be your nurse, lol!

;)

ROFL jauntie. That has to be the funniest medical I've ever heard of! Could it possibly get an worse ? haha

hahahaha...thought so :D..what can you do, just following instructions..:P he should make it clear..:P

The doctor decided to test my eyesight and said to me:

'now, watch my finger' and he put his hand in front of my face and raised one finger. I followed it with my eyes, first left, then right, then up, then down.

He said: 'now, open wide' and so I opened my eyes a little wider.

'A bit wider, please' he said - so I strained my eye muscles until I must have looked like an surprised owl!

The doctor just sighed and said: 'I meant your mouth'

I never saw the psychiatric report, but physically I seemed OK lol

LMAO Artex, I'm still laughing about ur story!

And apple don't worry I bet noone really noticed hehe. How are u girl?

When I was younger and in Germany, I went to a pool and when I was done I headed to the changing room. Unfortunaly I didn't know any german then and walked into the male's changing room instead. To my surprise I found a bunch of naked men showering and they just froze and looked at me. I ran screaming lol.

Good for me that the doctor is soooo kind but not too much coz she didn't allowed me to go home and change, no time! alot of patients appointment! she lend me her lab gown to use the whole shift but she is fat & taller than me. Hee hee heee, i'm like a pregnant woman wearing her uniform:)))

I once pinched the wrong man hard in his behind.

It was early in the morning, and my boyfriend went into a shop to buy a cup of coffee before taking the underground to work.

I thought he took quite some time getting the coffee, and went into the shop to look for him, spotting a dark suit in the back (Uhm, those shoulders!) and went to him, pintching him hard in the behind saying something like `You are so naughty'!.

Surprised was the look on the completely innocent strange man looking at me with his mouth open. He was still standing like that when I in a hurry grabbed my boyfriend by the arm and left the shop...

Later on he called the national radioshow asking me to come forward, because no of his colleages at work belived him when he told the story of a longlegged blonde grabbing his behind and calling him naughty out of the blue...

got a problem with his Outlook account, can't send or receive e-mails .. that is how my manager [like always have no idea is going on] thought that he put me in the picture. So I reset his password and login to test it, send an e-mail to my yahoo account [external], delivered.. send another one to someone in the company [internal] it works fine .. did the opposite, he can receive that too.

There is no problem at all and I expect it to be a big issue like a corrupted [.pst file] but nothing like that. I send my friend an e-mail from the group manager account as a double check and I put some of creativity in that, telling him that I will talk to your manger to give you a raise in your salary .. you should be getting paid ***** instead of ***** starting from next month.

I deleted that message from everywhere [sent - outbox - trash] and went so peacefully to my colleagues room and that guy [received the mail] was reading it and focusing so much, trying to believe. When he sees me, what happened dude? Nothing just checking my mail , ..is it regarding your new salary raise and he was like how come you know about it? ohhhh ok you send it .. ok ok ..

Later in the evening our manager was holding a paper in his hand, and ask us to meet him in the meeting room. He put the paper in front of us and asked, any idea about this mail? Don't ask me how did I felt when I saw the print out my message there and .. god .. need to tell the truth now and ... anyway .. problem were solved :)

It was a bounce back technique from exchange which betrayed me and send the message back to the sender ....

too funny ;o)

Had to releave a friend works at a certain private clinic who went on vacation. Got up late 1 morning for work, hubby had to drop me and kept saying "hurry up! yallah, yallah! i'm late!"

I was like, i dont know what to do first? wanted to stop the clock.

in short i arrived to work on time and had our first patient. But....OMG! what a hell embarassing?

My Doctor told me, "what the *........you are wearing?" LOOOOOL!

I was wearing my white blouse uniform, white shoes and matching WHITE tights pajama! I forgot to wear my white pants uniform. OMG, i want to hide under the patient bed. :)))

Once I was seated in front of the Doctor's desk he began asking me questions and ticking off the answers on the paperwork in front of him.

You know the kind of thing:

Is there a history of heart desease in your family .......NO

Have you ever suffered from epilepsy ......................NO

Are you allergic to penicilin ..........................NO

and so on for about 30 questions until I got SO bored I stopped listening and just kept repeating 'no', 'no', 'no' ...

He suddenly paused, looked at me rather oddly and said 'no?'

I said, 'sorry .. what was the question'

'Are both your breasts normal' he said

oh my gawd!!!! hahaha

YES YES YES

hahahaha....Just cant stop laughing ...how embarrassing…..cant imagine. that situation….

I had just rented a new apartment in Tribeca in Manhattan and on the very first night I awoke to hear a loud banging which seemed to be coming from outside the front door. I got up to take a look and opened the door. I then saw the cat flap from the opposite apartment was flapping and making the noise. As I went forward to try and close the flap, the front door closed behind me and locked. It was 3.00am (I think) I was locked out of my apartment, I had no cell phone, no watch and absolutely no clothes on. I had to wait until my previously unseen female neighbor came out. I then had to wait in her apartment dressed in her bathrobe until a locksmith came to let me back in to my apartment.

The former neighbor and myself remain friends to this day.

I had to have a medical examination. It was an afternoon appointment and at lunchtime I went shopping and bought a cauliflower and some cheese for my supper. I LOVE raw cauliflower and nipped off a couple of the florets to munch with a bit of cheese before I went for the appointment.

As you probably know cauliflower, once cut into, has quite a pong to it! When I got to the surgery I took a sniff at the open bag with the cauli in it and pulled a face, like 'oh wow what a pooh'! I held it out to the receptionist and asked her if she could look after it for me. (I didn't want to take it into the medical examiner).

Imagine my face when she said 'Certainly! Is it your specimen?' (poo sample)

um no! it's my supper!!!!

I can only tell you the whole appointment got worse, but will save the rest for later in this thread lol

lol owen cant believe ur blushing. That's not really embarrassing as long as he felt the same way too.

Charmed, loved the nightclub story LOL. No torn pants over here, but once my zipper was open and I was walking around for hours until someone pointed it out lol.

for a while i thought that he did not...but later on he realize that he feels the same way..(tooo much blushing goin on here, lady)..lol..

Annual day at my son's school in Doha...sitting there for 2 hrs and waiting for it to start...obviously, after some more time I'd asked some one....a loo....she just pointed her finger to some direction....and I blankly walked into 'For Gents'....well, to my disappointment, no body was there at that time.....i did only realized it when I heard a huge laughter behind me.....

i have so many i shall tell two which are equal one was on my first day of secondary school, i went to the ladies and the older girls stuck a camera under the door and took a lovely photo which did the rounds all around the school!

another time i was in a nightclub thinking i was all that when my trousers split all the way down the back side totally split! - the problem was i had got a coach there and had to get a coach home so there was no way of getting back home for many hours! Nighmare!

outhouse, thinking ohh gosh, I hope I don't slip and fall down these. Promptly slipping and falling down 8 metal steps on my rear end in front of the guide. He had the hardest time getting back in the boat due to laughing so much. Still have that indention in my left cheek!

And he didn't feel the same way ?

got tons of them on my closet..one is professing to a guy, how I feel for him..(blush blush)..:P

must remember not to double click, I must remember not to double......

looking scruffy.....tch tch.........lol.

I was crossing the bar at Heathrow T3 once with my hands full of drinks when another Qatar expat shouted (at the top of his voice) your zip is down........and it was.

Couldn't do anything about it so carried on as if I hadn't heard.

Sorry Corne you'll have to do better than that. I always dance at weddings barefoot. :D

I had a summer job working for a sailing ship and it was my job to stand on the dock and catch the ropes and attached them to the docking posts. One day I was running along the dock to catch them and didn't see a coil of rope lying on the dock, I tripped over it, literally did a flip and landed hard on my a$$. An entire boatload (roughly 200 people) of American tourists started laughing and pointing at me while I laid on the dock in pain. For the rest of the day they kept coming up to me and making jokes about it, and my co-workers never let me live it down.

yikes. Ooo I remember running into the lecture hall from the main entrance yelling and laughing with my friend only to find out that the professor had already started the lecture. He just stoped and looked at us, the entire class was eyes on us and the best thing is that I just froze for a few minutes looking around. Finally, I apologized and tried to tip-toe my way up to my seat...I tried to tip-toe my way even though EVERYONE already saw me !!! hahah what an idiot!

Won't admit my MOST embarassing mment but a lesser one is walking around City Centre for a few hours with my abaya on inside out. It was one that had a lot of embroidery on it so had lots of threads hanging and tangled on the other side!

1988- High School Admission Period

Cheers,

HONESTY is HARD ATTRIBUTE to FIND

from leave and went to our darts match. Met one of our team members and asked where her husband was. Floods of tears, he had died whilst we were away.

Open mouth insert foot.

That is your most embarrassing moment?
