Whenever the man was asked a question, his wife would answer. He asked "does she ever let you speak for yourself?". The wife responded with "No. Not since his stroke."

And that is why, even if you're internally judging the c**p out of a situation, it's often best to hold it in. I remember the first time our extended family met my cousin's boyfriend (now husband). We were having a barbecue dinner where everyone served themselves, and everyone was so taken aback when she got up and got his entire plate of food for him while he just sat there, we're all silently thinking "dude, get off your butt, she's not your slave". After they left, my aunt dropped into conversation that he had a degenerative vision impairment. Dude was almost completely blind in low-light settings, and would have had no idea where or what any of the food was. Hence why my cousin got it for him. We've now known him for 10 years and our first impression couldn't have been more wrong - he's incredibly motivated and active and if somebody is helping him it's because he REALLY can't do it

35 Of The Most Cringeworthy Moments People Experienced At a retreat we all were sitting on a hard wood floor.
Speaker: "Let us have a moment of silence to reflect upon God's word in our hearts."

At that point, my stomach was bothering me. I knew the best thing to do was to let out a fart. I thought, well this is just a little fart, if I let it out slowly it will be silent. No one will be the wiser. So I let it go.

The fart was extremely loud and was amplified by the wood floors and the silence of the room. It echoed and sounded as if my a*****e had torn in half.

Elicited chuckles and laughter afterwards. I claimed it.

35 Of The Most Cringeworthy Moments People Experienced It was the first day of school in 4th grade as I’ll never forget lol My mom had bought me a super cool Velcro jacket to wear to class and I put it in the dryer to make it warm in the morning. I took it out and threw it on and went to school all excited to show it off. The teacher asked everyone to go around the room, stand up, and introduce themselves. I VOLUNTEERED to go first, stood up and started talking. Some kid sitting next to me, interrupted and said wait you have something stuck to your back and proceeded to take this balled up thing stuck to my Velcro. He unraveled it very confused - in front of everyone - and it ended up being a massive pair of my mom’s maternity underwear 😂.

I was doing a play. It was children's theater so we entered from behind and among the audience to help suck the kids into this magical world. I'm playing Mike Teevee and I had to come in a side entrance and down these steps. Each step in that theater was like a small landing . So it's step down, take two strides then step down.

I had to time it so that by the time I've finished my monologue I'm standing in the front of the stage between the two narrators. It's our final dress rehearsal and my mom showed up to record me.

I'm making my way down and I stepped wrong and from what I saw on the recording what everyone else sees is me literally dropping out of view and then everyone laughing.

I basically somersaulted my way back to my feet and jumped back up to my feet blushing the rest of the way to the stage mortified.

I didn't realize it until I watched the recording back though. I never stopped monologuing. Not once. I was still doing my lines as I fell and as I was popping up without missing a beat.

Embarrassing as hell in the moment but kind of proud of it after the fact.

35 Of The Most Cringeworthy Moments People Experienced I was at a networking event for women engineers and tech leaders at hosted by a big company. Sit down dinner in a large room. Every seat was filled.

I was asked to give an example of work I was proud of because women rarely talk about their successes. I started to describe a successful non-profit project I did in college then suddenly bust into uncontrollable tears. I couldn’t stop them, I didn’t even know why it was happening. I had to stop and sit down. Sadly, I haven’t been invited back.

I did figure out I was describing a time period when, “home” was my dad’s house. He had passed away a couple years earlier, we were close, I miss him every day. Remembering this project brought back memories of this time and my grief was sudden and overwhelming. I can’t think about how much losing him hurts every day. If you ignore it long enough, grief will find a way out. It was so surprising and sudden.

So, yeah, super embarrassing, especially given no one present will ever know why.

At the end of the soccer game usually the moms would bring snacks and drinks for everyone, well my team didn't really have a great support network and nobody brought them for us.

I was so tired and sad that we lost I got confused and followed the other team to the snack area. They had twinkies, jerky, those little juice boxes that looked like grenades.. the best stuff. Started scarfing them down. Then noticed I was the only one on my team eating with these guys.

There was so much silence as an entire team of players and their support parents just looked at me. I was like, 'oh... I shouldn't be here'..They all started laughing at me. Then I walked back to my side of the field.. with my entire team started laughing at me.

35 Of The Most Cringeworthy Moments People Experienced For grade school, I attended a religious school. We went to church every week. One week, the weather was particularly warm and muggy, and we were in church. I was wearing the school uniform shorts, while sitting on the wooden pew/seats and my skin was very sticky.

The priest was droning on through his homily, and I adjusted my position in the seat. The back of my sweaty sticky leg stuck to the pew and made the loudest farting sound against the hardwood of the seat, and it echoed through the church, and everything subsequently went silent. *Everyone*, including the priest looked my way. There was a long, awkward, silent pause while everyone gazed at me while I flushed red like never before.

Nothing else came of it, the priest continued droning on and everyone else continued being bored, but that moment of thunderous fart noise and the world standing still while everyone stared at little 2nd grade me was absolutely mortifying.

Another time, although I didn’t walk into it, I stood waiting in front of a glass wall thinking it’s an automatic door. The said automatic glass door was just to the left of the glass wall. It took a friend of mine pointing out the door for me to realise that I was waiting for a wall to open up.

I could not hold it anymore. I started s******g myself. He told me to go into the thicket along the walking trail/bike path we were on to finish relieving myself. He went to get baby wipes from his sister. I cleaned up and left my underwear and my pride in the thicket.

In 4th grade I was wearing fake velvet/corduroy tweety bird overalls and we were doing parachute day in PE. The overalls split at the butt and the nurse used safety pins to keep it together for the next 4-5 hours. I went to BASE because my parents both worked and had long commutes so after school I basically just sat in a plastic chair so no one could see my butt.

Also when I was 12 or 13 I got my period in PE and bled through my underwear, pants, and a sweatshirt tied around my waist and I had to sit on the bleachers and not do field hockey which was my favorite. The rest is a little foggy but I think they had me wear stuff from the lost & found until I went home. Man I have a lot of PE related small t trauma.

I think most people have some PE trauma. Mine is how the teacher divided the class into five teams of six people each… Everyone voted on the captains, and then they took turns choosing members. You’d then sit in the order you were chosen for the semester. Yay!

Cr*pping my pants in church.

There was a special service being held on Halloween night and I ate way too much candy and my stomach got upset. I was the cross-bearer and I ran to the back right before they did the offering (where the cross-bearer has to go to the back of the church) and couldn't get the vestments off in time and just let it rip. I remember my pants expanding like a balloon and I felt the liquid goo running down my leg. The secondary priest came to the back to check on me and he could smell the foul deed I did and I remember him saying "oh god" and he went to the back to get my mom who quickly shuffled me out the back/side door of the church.

They tried to wash the vestments and my parents ended up buying the church an entire new set. Needless to say I never wanted to "serve" again.

Is it blasphemic that the priest said "oh God"...? Also, church on Halloween night? Wonder if that was Lutheran, where Reformation Day (like, church reformation by Martin Luther) is celebrated October 31. But other than Lutheran...seriously, church on Halloween??

I did that too in my first year of secondary school! I only realised I was in the wrong place when the girl in front of me turned around whispered "I didn't know you were in this class!" And I was like. Oh s**t. I'm not. And then I had to book it downstairs to my real class haha

I have a whole list of stories that haunt me at night but here's a story from today: I was at goodwill today and looking at the shoes. On one of the benches next to the shoe racks there was a lady nursing her baby. I picked up a pair of heels, which knocked down the pair next to it. This pair of shoes just so happened to be at the end of the road, so one of the heels fell off the shelf and onto this lady's shoulder. I apologized profusely but only got a withering stare in return. I still feel bad but I'm glad I didn't hurt the baby.

I remember one time I was 17 and working in a supermarket. There was this cashier I liked and after a few weeks, I finally plucked up the courage to ask her out. She full on laughed in my face and never spoke to me again. There was another time in a different supermarket when I had a 5am start. When I got there and sat down in the staff room, I noticed some discomfort in my upper back area. I reached back and pulled out a coathanger that was inside my shirt but I was too tired to notice.

I was in hospital bed chatting to two woman sitting on the next bed. We noticed smoke rising out from a distant chimney. I made a joke about clinical waste and the odd arm or leg being cremated. TOTAL SILENCE. One of the woman returned to her bed albeit a wee bit unsteady. I was made aware that she had lost a leg in an accident... 🤦x1000

This isn't the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me but it's definitely up there. I was on a longish ferry trip and noticed a group of guys sitting near me were carrying guitars. I asked if they were in a band and they said yes! Now, I like to sing. I do it all the time. At every single job I've had, I was the one who sang while I worked. So of course I told them. They were interested and asked me to sing for them, and when I was reluctant one guy said "c'mon, show us what you've got!" You know those viral videos where an impromptu musical performance breaks out on public transport or an airport waiting room or whatever? Well, that's not what happened. Because I choked. I made three or four attempts to sing a song for them and each time they'd start getting into the groove, tapping on the guitars as drums... and then I'd completely blank on the lyrics just one verse in. The band left at the terminal without talking to me again. Still pissed at myself for that one.

Later on I realised the problem was that when I sing I'm almost always *singing along with something*. And also I have no experience at all in singing in front of an audience.

i was coming out of the women's restroom, and this place was super confusing. it was hallways in hallways and split into two other hallways. to be honest, i was so confused how i even got in there. i followed my best sense, and i ended up in the men's restroom.. luckily it was one of the bathrooms where it had a long hallway leading to two entrances, but led to the same place. i made it look like i was looking for my grandpa😭😭

In elementary, I had a rumbly tummy in gym. We were sitting in our rows, it was quiet as the PE teacher was explaining a game we were going to play. I had to fart and for some reason, I was comfy enough to just let it rip. Y'all, it freaking ECHOED in that gym. I sat there so quiet and mortified as all the other kids started giggling and choking back on laughter. Somehow, they thought it was this other kid who immediately started begging 'it wasn't me, it wasn't me!" I feel bad now but in that moment, I was so relieved no one looked at me. I know my face was beet red. Poor kid was taunted for days after.

Mine was my best friend and I were 16 and thought we were the sh*t. Two young men doing their mission work were knocking door to door. Well they were cute. We decided to flirt. Now I'm generally I really smart person, well as we're flirting away I notice their name tags. My 35 years later embarrassment is still strong as I was floored that both of these young men had the same odd first name. "OMG you guys both have the same first name! That's just cool." They were in fact Elder Morris and Elder Nelson. Had no idea they received titles. Had no idea that I could embarrass myself that badly.

Firstly, who are these people that the last time they were embarrassed was when they were at school? Are they all about 14? I don't embarrass easily, but one time that stands out is when I stumbled going down some stairs at a railway station and instinctively my hand grabbed what was next to me. Which was the mid thigh region of the trousers of a man next to me. He didn't know how to react and basically tried to ignore it, and I (which is rare to me, I'm usually quite good in this sort of situation) just felt incredibly awkward. Although thank every god and goddess from every pantheon that it was only at mid thigh and not his crotch.

I don't understand why people are haunted by embarrassing things though, the only person you've affected negatively is yourself. What torments me is everything I've done that's had (or is still having) a negative impact on other people.

Couple years ago some good friends and I went to see Mt Rushmore. Friend's kid and I were killing time on the big stage before the evening lighting ceremony. I managed to forget how to walk and fell off the concrete stage and down the equally concrete stairs...in front of 300+ people. Only major injury was to my pride, so I jumped up and bowed. And then slunk to my seat and sent the kid for some ice.

I could write a book about my embarrassing stories but this is one that happened to me a few years ago. Back then I used to travel to work and back on the train. The station near my workplace was quite remote and not that many people used it. I often had a 15-20 minute wait for the train and to kill time I would sometimes walk up and down the platform. One day I was walking up and down the platform and there was one of those rare moments when the whole world seemed to go silent. There was no traffic noise, no birds singing, no people, absolutely no sound whatsoever. At that point I did the biggest rip-roaring fart ever and then i burst out laughing. Then i looked behind me and there was somebody standing right behind me staring at me.

I get that it is embarrassing, but the amount of fecal related accidents made me stop reading. Not because they're disgusting, or what have you, but just repetitive.
