    I was reading porn on my grandma’s laptop cause I was bored at a holiday get together.

    Laptop battery died but I’m old so I’m not used to laptops saving your data when powered off.

    I plugged the laptop in and went about my day. 20 minutes later all I hear is “what are you doing looking at this kind of smut?”

    Luckily I was halfway out the front door to go smoke when I heard it so I was able to play it off like I didn’t.

    Grandma doesn’t hug me the same…

    I once waved furiously to a car that was not my dad’s. This was over 20 years ago and I still think about it.

    I’ve done a lot of self-forgiveness in recent years, so a lot of the simpler and sillier ones I don’t think of as embarrassing anymore.

    Could be the time I flipped a guy off after he cut me off and I missed a light. He saw me in his mirror and started freaking out and swerving, almost hit a curb.

    I didn’t mean to ruin his day. Just letting off steam.

    Either that or the time I drove on the shoulder to avoid a car stopped in the middle of the road. When I merged back she had started to move and we collided. Totally my fault.

    I only realized later that due to her age, location, and stickers on her car from a nearby Catholic University that I’d probably hit a nun.

    In my younger years I passed out in public 3 separate times, once it was just me and my mom outside a bank, which wasn’t too bad, but the second time I was at an all-school assembly, and the third time I was at an Easter Sunday church service, and every time it was embarrassing as fuck.

      I’m currently sitting in emerge waiting for my wife. About 2 hours ago they had to test her blood, and I was in the room… When I woke up there were like 5 people staring at me and the nurses were laughing

    I guessed someone’s age as 40 and she was 25. To be fair she talked about how she had worked for her company for a very long time, and she was sitting in the mostly dark outside. But that was terrible.

    Me in High School, carrying a torch for a girl who was completely uninterested. We’re skiing at Mount Bachelor, I missed the exit from the chairlift and they wouldn’t let me jump down, so I ride the chairlift down. Of course girl I was carrying a torch for saw.

    Or…

    Fast forward about 45 years. Last weekend I was at Lynn Family Stadium with my wife, watching LouCity play. Just past the second half restart, I’m standing up from letting some people go down our row to their seats. I decide to put my drink can in the cup holder before sitting down all the way. I bend over and over balance. Go falling down over the row in front of us and the aisle beside us.

    You can pick which is more embarrassing.
