One evening I dosed off in the sofa with a candle lit on the table and the TV on. I woke up and went straight to the TV, bowed down and blowed on the switch to turn it off! I think I laughed so long, I had a problem falling asleep after going to bed.
When I was in the house cleaning business I had put adds on various bulletin board in order to expand my business. Having never been very good at spelling here's how it read. Honest hard working and dependable looking for houses to clean. I have great refreshment . Which was supposed to have said great references.
I was so prepared but nervous the day I was taking my driver's test. The man who was going to administer it was very heavy set and fit rather uncomfortably into my 87 Honda Civic. When he got in, he didn't put on his seatbelt. I thought this was part of the test. I asked him once to out it on. He distractedly said no. Again, I thought he was testing me, so I insisted. He then put down his clip board looked me dead in the eye and just said 'NO.' loudly and directly with NO room to wonder if he was anything but dead serious. I think I shook for the entire test, but somehow passed. I was sure he was going to fail me.
so what was the reason for im not putting it on? i'm a little lost on this one...

Being an ex-waitress, I would have picked up the tab for BOTH of them
I'd have loved it if the story ended with "...and now we've been married for ten years and have two children!"
I can't count the times I've said "Be safe, love you." when ending conversations with perfect strangers. Apparently I have a secret tendre for my dry cleaner and the guy who takes my lunch order. It's just like muscle memory, your mouth just says it out of habit.
The sentient machine shall remember this and spare your life when the takeover happens.
Why is this embarrassing? If I was the guy with no arms I would have just nodded in the right direction or something. There ARE other ways to "point."
Translation: while alone in the house, someone knocked at the door. He stood there and said, “Police, we’re doing door to door visits looking for someone in the village.” He handed me a card with a photo on it. “Sorry, never seen him before,” I replied. “That’s me,” he said, as he took his ID back.
Not your fault. You weren't to know and if the dude didn't show ya before getting into an argument or not explaining to you properly, it seems like they were trying to make you feel bad, and in front of people.
This is the third dentist-tongue story on the thread! I didn't realise that dentists tasted so nice!
A rule of life - never congratulate someone for their pregnancy until they actually tell you they're expecting. I've avoided some very close calls by following that maxim!
Much worse things in that world can happen to people than beeing naked at a beach for a second. Relax.
This will never happen with me cause I never say "I love you" just like that lol ...
I was going through the checkout line at Kmart when the cashier told me my item was 50% off. I meant to say sweet but instead said sweetie. I just walked away.
Wow a lot of these are about meeting people with disabilities. I wish schools did more in teaching how normal it is to have a disability, how to approach disabled people, what are the ways to help them or how to talk to them without offending them (especially through bringing them to schools) and generally include them in the society better.

I couldn't pick one time, I've just generally acted like a complete idiot multiple times throughout my life
I relate completely to this... Too many incidents to share, that I don't even wanna do it
Load More Replies...Once I had a really really good hot stone massage. So the therapist started massaging my back. The massage table also had a hole to place your face in so I could l lie there very comfortable. After a couple of minutes I got so cosy and relaxed I dozed off a bit. Suddenly woke up making a slurpy sound. Realised I had started drooling on the floor. I didn't know whether to laugh or to be just really embarrassed. Decided for both. The massage therapist joined in laughing and said I wasn't the first one to drool on the floor. And that he was actually thinking about placing a bowl under the table. Oops. :D
That one's actually really cute. The massage therapist must be really good if some of the clients accidentally end up drooling. Drooling is generally a sign of being relaxed if anything.

Aged 4 - onstage at the town panto - the rest of the dance troupe exited on time leaving me furiously tap dancing alone on the stage in front of 500 people - someone had to drag me off
It was 1992. I bear a resemblance to Pat Sajak, and feel that gives me the right to go up to someone and tell that they look like a celebrity. I see a person who looks like the newly elected President Bill Clinton. I approach the person and remark, "You look like Bill Clinton." True Story it was a woman.
my husband cooks a local delicacy of their province where it needs pig brain..so i ask the butcher "do you have brains?" everyone around me starts to laugh specially if they says "no".. i think i did this more than once
In my early 20s I used to think it was funny to reply ‘Your MOM is/does (adjective/activity)!’ So for example, if someone told me ‘You’re ridiculous.’ I’d reply ‘Your MOM’s ridiculous!’ Well a guy I had just started hanging out with and trying to get to know romantically invited me to hang out at his step dad’s beach house over the weekend one summer. We were relaxing and talking and I don’t remember exactly what he said, but he threw a playful jab at me. I, in turn replied with the ‘Your MOM’ thing. He asked ‘What?’ And I said it again. Emphasizing the word ‘mom’ even louder. He just sort of, forced a smile and changed the subject. Later that evening I went to the fridge for a beer. Saw her memorial pamphlet on the fridge. I had forgotten. His mom was dead. Fuuuuuuuuck
I had met a girl and asked her out on a date. I took her to see a movie..."Little Orphan Annie". I later learned that both her parents had recently passed away.
Invented "Hump jump" with my mate, said i was in that event to my athletics club.
I work as a cashier and I had the following conversation with a regular customer… Me: How are you today? Him: Good, but I think I'm going just a bit nutty (he forgot what he was buying) Me: That's ok, we all like a bit of a nut sometimes.... WE both froze, looked at each other and hilarity ensues. We were laughing so hard we couldn't talk... I don't think I'll be able to face him again...
I was at a checkout with a line behind me. I was tired and a bit jumpy anyway, but the cashier was a bit twitchy and blurted suddenly in greeting. I was startled and let out a whopper of a fart. Went on with the transaction like nothing happened and left as soon as possible.
I was at a tapas bar once with an ex, we were seated at the bar and it was busy. There was someone on the other side of my ex, slightly round the bar, and though I hadn’t looked at them directly in the face, i could see their hands on the table and identified they were a bloke. My ex accidentally reached for their drink instead of his own at one point and I said ‘hang on, that’s that guy’s drink’. Looked them in the face at that point to see it was a girl, and not even a particularly masculine one. She had heard me and was looking confused and awkward. I went extremely red and tried to avoid eye contact the rest of the night
i gotta add my own, and i'll be honest: many years ago me and some mates were on a seaside resort at night , hanging out around the bars on the road. Two guys around 18-20 years old walk down the road holding hands. My mates started commenting about them being gay etc, but i kept watching them cause something was off ...so they walk past, and my friends stop commenting, and i keep watching as they go to an ice cream store. and the one guy buys an ice cream for the other...and then it hits me. i turn to my friends and say , guys, the one dude is a special needs person, thats why he has him by the hand... their faces dropped with shame.
In too many cases, people regret their rude behavior, without realizing that rude behavior in never correct to start with. If you're first reaction to someone mildly annoying you is to insult and yell, they you have serious anger issues... Apologizing is rather pointless in this case.
