And Now For Something Completely Different: What Was The Most Embarrassing Thing You Have Ever Said...Out Loud?

This short film (below the fold) appeared in my YouTube feed for some reason. It's pretty well done, although I would quibble about it being "Best Short Film Ever." Anyway, the premise is clever enough that it is worth a watch, and you will understand how I arrived at the title of this post if you do watch it.

Regardless; what cringe-worthy things have you spouted by mistake, or in a fit of honesty or anger or misguided attempt at humor. And don't stop at your own utterances; what magnificently awful things have you heard others spout?

Best (or, I guess, worst) one gets a one year AoSHQ Platinum Membership with Troll-B-GonTM and ampersand utility.

4 A store clerk told me when I asked where I could find some merchandise, "certainly, walk this way." and my unthinking response was, "If I could walk that way I wouldn't have asked for corn starch."

She told me back, "Honey, that's what nylons are for."

22 My mother in law, now passed, was a God-fearing baptist, a sunday school teacher, a devout, cultured, and honorable woman to the core. Which is why the things she said were so hilarious.

second best that I recall:

One time at a funeral, by herself for a bit because her husband, Buddy, was a pall bearer was occupied with those duties, she was talking to the mourners, and was asked "well where's Buddy?" and she immediately replied "Oh he's a wheelbarrow".

A friend of mind said he was willing to go out tfor coffee but added "Next week might work. I have to see what's going on." My response was "Could you just give an actual date and not try to figure this out in case something better comes up for you." He gave some lame response but we actually did go out for coffee.

And yes, I adopted my son. Long story.

41 but best of all, mom-in-laws greatest moment (mind you, this was in Shreveport, La) came at one her well attended Thanksgiving Dinners in the 80's. Everyone in the family would come, we'd always have at least 20 people, plus kids. Well one nephew of one of the siblings, very white, was at the time dating a black girl, but he kept telling people she was Indian. (fyi, south of Shreveport, there's a city named Zwolle which is mostly inhabited by descendants of a few Caddo and a lot of freed slaves that moved in together) So he was late, and everyone wanted to meet his "Indian" girlfriend, and we were all visualizing someone on the spectrum between Cher and Sacagawea.

So, he finally walks in, late, with everyone there at the table, and his girlfriend looks good, I think she was a model, and she also was as Black as the Ace of Spades. So everyone is just stone cold quiet, not knowing what to say, and then mom-in-law, wanting to be a Good Host, perks up and cheerily asks "Well! What Tribe are YOU from????"

45 Raising the flag at morning muster at Navy Supply Corps Officer School in Athens, Georgia, Spring of '89, I believed the flag had reached the peak of the pole (felt like it, anyway, and I was trying not to look up, thinking that showed more discipline), but alas, the flag was not at peak, and I sort of was frozen.

The Captain in charge of the school cleared his throat and said loudly and somewhat sarcastically: "Please raise the colors to the TOP of the flag pole."

Whereupon Ensign Sharkman said WAY too loudly: "Oh, fuck me running!", looked up and raised the flag all the way.

I marched perimeter guard, midnight to 4 am, every night for two weeks.

Ahhh, good times. Good times.

I was 13-14 or so...parents made us go see Cats on Broadway. The seat next to me had a 10 year old boy and next to him was his grandfather.

Second act. The entire Theater goes dead silent for some dramatic scene...

Kid next to me is dead asleep and rips the loudest fart I have ever heard. So loud that the Cats on stage (and the entire Theater) look directly at me.

I stand up, point at the kid and declare, "It was HIM!"

60 I tend to say stupid stuff in e-mails. The same person I got irritated with about having coffee I wrote a note to "Why the hell did you say that to your congregation member. You jumped down her throat." It's a good thing that I have the husband I do and am not married to this guy, because his family laughs at his autocratic ways which is probably the better approach.. It would be a contest who would kill each other first if we were married to each other. He'd probably win out because he's a trained military person and could think of a way to kill me while making it look like an accident.

75 Many, many years ago I was writing about the auto show in Detroit, and speaking to a german executive from Mercedes I think. They were forced to stay in the plane on the tarmac for something like 8 hours; toilets were overflowing and so on. It was all over the tv news. I made some sort of comment like "wow, what Nazis."

Thankfully, the german guy ignored it because that was when I was young and pretty.

87 In 2016, I was trying to figure out how to get rid of a troublesome employee who was a hardcore communist antifa type. I think he seriously expected to be named commissar of the business when everything was nationalized after Hillary won.
The day after Trump won, he announced, "Don't count on me coming back, because I'm leaving the country".
Problem solved.

90 Once I was attending a faculty meeting where the arts types used to drone on ad infinitum over inconsequential trivia in a total waste of time.

For this reason, another physical scientist and I hung back and staked out a table a bit away from everyone else, spread out our papers and went head down reviewing papers and proposals.

After about an hour they were handing out slips of paper for a vote.

"Pssst. What are we voting on?" I hissed out of the side of my mouth.

"Just vote 'yes,'" my co-conspirator replied, sotto voce.

"Are you sure it's a yes/no vote?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. Just vote 'yes.'"

So I did. They announced the results of the vote:

"There are 14 votes for Smith, 11 for Jones, and two for "yes."

Everybody turned and looked at us, laughing, because it was obvious who had done this.

93 my embarrassing statements have to do with stating opinions. we were visiting friends at their country house and somehow the conversation turned to watches. I stated that I, like many of my coworkers in my first job wanted to take some huge part of our first bonus and buy an expensive watch.

Shortly after we started working the head of the private client division came down and gave us a talk about how to start saving money for the future. half way into his talk he said "I know you are all thinking about spending your bonuses to buy some cool new watch, don't be stupid." he then went off about how much that money would be worth when we retired, even including the cost of maintenance. So I and nearly all of my coworkers decided not to buy the expensive watches.

when when I had told the story our hostess said "you know when I got my first big commission everything went to buying a gold cartier tank watch." awkward.

when she sat down for dinner that evening I was seated beside her and she leaned over and said "I know you think this is wasteful and nonsensical but you do have to admit it is beautiful", then she held out her hand with the watch. awkward.

Somebody at a party was praising Bradley Manning (pre-trans,) and in my vehement response I included the (quite true) observation that he was a "twink" who had betrayed the USA over a spat with his pervert partner.

Oops, there were two gays (or whatever non-normal gender they ID as) there who hated my guts for saying that, an army-brat female and her gay son. (I think the female is gay, but she's mostly a 0.3-0.4 BAC 24-hour-a-day beer drunk who drives her car into the sides of convenience stores.)

Her son also took offense once at an absurd joke I made about Justin Bieber.

106 When I was about 10 a friend of mine's father took us to a Washington Senators night game. At that age you do at least as much goofing off as paying attention to the game, but just quietly because we were raised to be polite and not act like fucking nine balls in public. Except for this one time.

My goofball friends at recess would yell all sorts of dumb shit, but not cussing because the teachers were around. There was this one name that was used and I had no idea who it was but it must have been someone famous. So in the middle of the game I yelled out "Hitler".

I immediately knew I fucked up badly because there was a hush around me. I don't know if people were looking at the shithead who said that because I was trying to shrink within myself into a one dimensional point while praying furiously to God to go back in time and make that not happen. A couple innings later I asked my friend who that name was and he told me, which brought on further self recriminations. My friend's father must have brushed it off as something dumb kids will do because I assume he didn't tell Father Hate since I didn't get a lecture or worse from him. But it's still embarrassing to think of.

The rainfall amount (up to 11 inches), in one night, was enough to get my area declared part of a Federal Disaster Area.

A car stopped, and an older woman, perchance older than myself, started talking to me. After introductions, we talked about the rain and damage.

If you do 200 hours of meetings, the project will then require 2000 hours because of all the mistaken decisions that come out of f'n meetings.
Posted by: gp at August 11, 2019 03:10 PM (mk9aG)


A good meeting starts on time, ends on or before time, and has a sufficiently detailed agenda setting out the matters to be decided, and the options before the house, that those not in attendance should be able to render a proxy vote. That is, the issues and options are thoroughly teed up in advance.

A good meeting also has a good chairman who will take two people to speak to opposing sides of an issue: a statement, a rebuttal, the opposing statement, and the rebuttal to it, and keeps the speakers to time (say, two minutes each) before calling for a vote.

A good meeting also has all participants addressing ONLY the chairman, and not each other, and afterwards has the minutes circulated detailing the decisions taken and the parties responsible for implementing those decisions.

When I chaired a meeting, I strove to do all of those (never succeeded in getting participants to refrain from addressing each other, though). Number of meetings I've attended that the other things? Zero.

The sign that a meeting is going to be a disaster: someone looking around and saying, "Whose meeting is this, anyway?"

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson spoke to the Alabama football team on Thursday night, urging players to love themselves and manage their anger in a healthy way.

The more I knocked guys out, the more I broke their ribs, broke their eye sockets, the more people loved me. So what was I to think? I hurt everybody. I hurt women. I hurt my friends. I hurt strangers. I had no concept of myself. I didn't know who I was. I was this boxer who hurt people. I always had to be 'Iron Mike.'

When Mr. Clay yelled out yet another angry rhetorical question, in the ensuing seconds of silence I let one rip, completely unintentional but impertenently loud.

Looking back on it the comedic timing was exquisite but, being a delicate lad, I panicked. Pointed at the guy next to me and shrieked, "IT WAS ME!"

So the nice church lady that used to put the message on the church sign saw one in a book of phrases she plucked them from that said "Forgiveness is to swallow when you want to spit".

Now obviously the message was intended to relay that its better to swallow your anger instead of spitting venom, but in this reprobate society, a few people on Facebook took a picture of it and started laughing at the sexualized interpretation of the message.

So I stopped by to talk with the Pastor about it, he's a very godly man. So I hinted that they might want to change the sign, that some members of the community were making fun of it. He said "Why?". So I awkwardly said "Well, they are sexualizing it" and sort of hoped that would suffice.

Instead I got "Sexualizing it? What?".

At this point I was a bit stuck because I was already down that path too far. So I reluctantly said "They are kind of referring to like oral stuff".

Again, his initial response was "What?", followed by awkward silence, followed by eyes widening, followed by "Ohhh", followed by "Well that's ridiculous!".

It was like a birds and the bees talk, only way worse x 200.

We were watching a crime show with our adult daughter.

They showed a CCTV clip of the young woman getting on a bus and taking a seat. My daughter piped up and said, "Was that before she was killed?"

I gave her a Spock eyebrow.

One night at dinner it seemed to be my turn for the tease-fest (to this day I have no idea what it was about) and in my head, I told myself to just ignore them and don't let on that they were getting to me. Eventually I decided I had had enough and in an above-it-all snooty manner asked, "May I please be ignored?" They stated they would be delighted to accommodate me before I could get the blazes out of there. Mortification and to this day, better part of sixty years later, I still hear about it and now all the nephews have heard about it, too.

273 My youngest brother was not all that bright, and sometime in the 90's my dad was retelling a funny story from his youth about his friend Tom Regan -- whom he has always referred to just as "Regan."

The story involves a golf ball hit into a tree into which Regan climbs in an attempt to retrieve it, precipitating an owl defending its nest to attack Regan. Regan manages to fight off the owl and retrieve his golf ball before falling several feet out of the tree. Lying on the ground, the owl continues to attack him and he has no choice but to kill it with his bare hands (Regan was a huge fellow with monstrous forearms and hands).

Anyway, at the end of the story, after we've all had a good laugh, my youngest brother exclaims excitedly and dead seriously: "No WONDER he was elected President!"

I literally fell out of the chair and we all had even more belly laughs ... with my brother looking at us very confused and saying "What? What did I say that was so funny?"

So some years ago they went to an oldies concert ( and said Lindsay did a very good job) and afterwards you could buy CDs and get autographs. She was such a fan they waited until almost no one was left and approached Lindsay and his wife. The wife said that they had two CDs and Mark liked one better but she liked the other one better and the only reason Mark didn't like that one was picture on the cover. Mark overheard, grabbed a CD and asked my sister, "Now, did my hair ever look like that?" My sister didn't know what to say and became that 14 year old teenybopper again. It must've been alright because they got a picture of him with his arm around her.

But never the same track twice, ever again. It's liberating, it's fresh, it's good. My ex-gf loved to retreat into her little world where she played the same 100 songs over and over, seeking to recall the feelings she had sometime before. I want to have new feelings, not to relive the past.

I glance at the card they had handed the other staffer and say, not loudly but at average conversational volume, "Hey, aren't those the guys who buried Jimmy Hoffa?"

The door to the front office was still open.

Here are some signs you can suggest to you pastor.They are from an actual booklet called "Signs of faith" about signs from Lancaster, PA.

"A word of love can make a world of difference."

"Kindness is the hardest thing to give away. It always comes back."

"Better to rise to the occasion than hit the ceiling."

Don't think anybody can misinterpret those.

321 reminiscent of the "twilight zone" episode writer conjures up a mistress by describing her in his tape recorder. his wife threatens to leave him, doesn't believe his powers, even when he destroys the mistress by throwing the recording tape in the fire, and stops her by conjuring an elephant. finally, he gives up trying to win her over and burns the bit of tape that created the wife. rod serling's ending moralizing narration ends the episode, but the writer doesn't like that either and throws the rod serling bit of tape into the fire disappearing our host, as well.

Anyway, Aunt Joan asks if I'll ever get married again and I said, "yes, if Lynn would have me, but second marriages don't count".

Of course, Aunt Joan was someone's second wife and she's his mourning widow. I'm that good.

The ticket seller almost didn't admit me because I was too young and my parents weren't there but my cousin "Barbara said HER PARENTS ARE DEAD I'M HER GUARDIAN" and the guy was so intimidated he let me in. Ha ha! I said this in front of my brother-in-law whose mom died of cancer when he was 12 and then at age 13 he found his dad's body, dead from a massive heart attack. A room full of people and everybody froze. I didn't even realize at first what I said, then I was like, oh geez, that was insensitive.

South Park had just come out and "Cartman's" best line was "I'm not fat! I'm Big-Boned!"

I was practicing the "Cartman Voice" in the back near the office, just to see if I could do it. I must have said it ten times.

I'm a sports mom, and my son had stopped playing his sport in college, and we were out to lunch with my husband, two friends from college and his girlfriend. I thought I could tell them the story of this guy who walked on to the basketball team and became central to their success. I had thought a lot about sharing the story, hoping that my son would be inspired and try out for the team. So that probably made me a little hyped, and I'm already an energetic person. The player's name was Michael Hart, which I can never remember, and then there it was ... the perfect moment to bring up the thing I hoped would lead to a new path for my son ... I excitedly blurted out in an LA sushi restaurant for all to hear ...

Now there are high level D pols and probably more importantly very rich D donors and or celebrity mouthpieces who were actual pedo island clients/visitors and who are demanding that this situation somehow go away.

Could very well be that another ambitious DS underling, who was crooked rather than naive decided to make that happen and now the top people are screaming "NOT like this you fools, now even more people are curious about who visited that island and what kind of evil went on there."

It'll be all Avengers movies or whatever is this year's big product. We used to go to artists alley and talk to comic book artists about their work. There were breakout sessions where Jim Lee would critique people's drawings.

It was quaint.

395 9/10 of the cosplay people who show up at Comic Cons can not pull off the Harley Quinn outfit, but the couple who can are Wow!

Thanks for the intel.

The only Con I have been to is the NY Con, which was pretty lame.

I hope to go to San Diego Con one day.

Yep, convention center.

One of the NY Cons is called Big Apple Comicon and it's not part of the other ComicCon universe. It's quite lame.

Then that's the one I probably went to, it was terrible.

402 I was once in a very crowded bar as a fifth wheel. When my two buddies headed for drinks, the ladies went to powder their noses. The guys came back and one yelled over the band, "Where are the girls?"

"In the bathroom," I said.

"What?"

"IN THE BATHROOM!"

"WHAT?"

I drew in a breath and began to again scream "IN THE" - just as the band abruptly ended the song and I finished - "FUCKING BATHROOM!" in dead silence.

Everyone in the bar turned to look at me and from the stage the lead singer pointed and said, "Down that hall, buddy."

403 I went to high school with twin girls. Had a couple classes with one of them but never saw them together. It was funny, this same girl seemed to be everywhere in my high school. One time we went on a class trip and the girls went at the same time and sat together. I looked at the one, I looked at the other, and then said "Oh my God, you're twins!" Loooooong, awkward silence. I moved to the back of the bus.

404 Oh dear. I only heard about this one, didn't witness it.

When I first started working on the postpartum unit of a fairly prestigious hospital, I saw that, predictably, all the staff were female. Some related to me how it ended up that way, not because they don't like men, but because men tend to feel awkward assigned here and the patients often do as well. (Not always, but often enough.)

So not long before I got there a young man was on staff and assigned a patient as she was on her way over from L & D, having just delivered a robust baby boy via C-section. As such, he had to clean her perineum and explain to her how to do it as well, once she was ambulatory.

Feeling extremely awkward, and sensing his patient felt the same, he rapidly completed the procedure and, struggling for something meaningful to say, burst out with, "There we go! I bet you never had anything like that before!"

He was an 18-year-old kid new on the job, but the patient reported him and aggressively pursued punishment. The charge nurse spoke to her, apologizing profusely and also added that it really was just sheer awkwardness; the kid didn't know what to say and had no experience in doing this job. Hd knew she was uncomfortable and was just trying to do his just and put her at ease at the same time. Could she find it within her to just forgive him? The charge nurse reassured her she would never have to see this particular corpsman again. The patient refused.

I don't know what ever happened to the kid but I sincerely hope someone along the line made a wise choice re: this case. He would have stood a better chance then than now, given that this idiotic response occurred in the 90s.

Damn, a pretty viscous response given the comment was not that out of the way. Fumble footed, sure.

412 There was the time I saw the woman wearing a Guess! sweatshirt. I had seen a joke, and blurted it out without thinking. "240?" She was not pleased, to say the least.

413 'That wasn't me.'

After cutting a loud fart in the sanctuary, and having my female cousin in the choirloft point her finger right at me. I was 12 at the time.

I know, but I guess she had also given birth that day to a robust snowflake movement and then conditioned it for the next 20 years to be offended at anything and everything.

Not sure if that's directed at me or the patient, so I should probably clarify I meant that hers was the idiotic response.

What about that outfit matches?

I still feel really bad about it

418 I embarrass myself on a daily basis. I walk into walls and apologize to them. I'll say something like "How are you?" and person will respond, " Fine, thanks, how are you? " and I'll babble something like, "You, too."

421 I once told a teacher that the community college with the biggest student population in the LA area was in West LA (an upscale neighborhood).

424 My daughter's high school mascot was a Trojan (as in ancient times). She was once checking out at the convenience store when her baby sister, who was proud of her new reading ability, spotted that well-known prophylactic and said 'Look, Sissy- Trojans! You should buy some."

428 Well, once I walked into church late (small church, around 40-50 people) and the music had already started. The worship leader was singing a hymn, and I noticed the projector wasn't on showing the words, so I figured it was malfunctioning and did my best to sing out, you know, since not many people were singing. I don't remember how long it took me to realize he was singing it solo as a prelude. Maybe not until we repeated the song later in the service... mostly I just repress this memory.

429 A few months ago I was hospitalized for diabetic foot wounds that required surgery. My husband came to visit after church and said that our pastor was explaining my situation to the congregation and had told them, "She's got foot wounds that are a complicated of obesity." The crowd hushed, then the pianist corrected him, "Ummm, it's diabetes." The hard of hearing pastor didn't hear her and probably doesn't realize his mistake to this day, but everyone else started giggling. I thought it was hilarious hearing it later, but I don't know what I'd have done if he'd said it in my hearing!

430 I'm a white guy. That's going to be important in a minute. There is a local gas station that is also a bbq restaurant. There was a sign outside that said "Free hamburger with fill up!" That sounded like a good deal to me and i was sitting on E. I filled my car up, then went inside to claim my burger. Two guys working the bbq counter, 2 customers ahead of me, 2 more behind me, all black. The guy at the front of the line said "How much for an order of ribs?" Counterman told him and while the customer was mulling that over, I BLURTED out "How much for ONE rib?" That's Chris Rock's gag from I'm Gonna Get You, Sucka! Customer turns around and says, "What?" I don't hesitate, "You've never heard that Chris Rock joke?" I then proceed to do the entire gag, complete with different voices for everybody. Had the store in stitches! "Dinner and a comedy routine, don't forget to tip your waiter!" were my last words as I headed out the door with my burger.
