This is my most embarrassing moment ever.

[Lobsterquadrille2]

Tell me you've had worse. Walking home, the spoke of a man's umbrella knocked my wig off. Right by the traffic lights. Someone wound his window down to shout "I think you've dropped something, love".

Ok it seems funny now 😀

Getting off the tube one day and a blast of hot air went right up my dress, which blew up over my head to show my knickers and the fact I wasn't wearing a bra.

Buying my car last year at a car giant type place-i was on the phone to insurance company to change over to new car-all the chairs were those office ones on wheels, i bent over to get something out of my bag and the chair just spun out behind me planting me on the floor-well everyone rushed over to help salespeople customers, I wasnt hurt just mortified and couldnt leave till all the paperwork was done

Best thread ever.

I was very plump and plain when I was little, and probably the most unpopular child in the whole of my primary school. But I had a wonderfully supportive mum who constantly showered me with compliments to try to boost my confidence.

One day at school I was having a terrible time. I'd been bullied and picked on by everyone and had escaped to the loo. I decided to try to boost my OWN confidence by praising myself, as if I were my Mum. So I faced the mirror and loudly said, "You're a lovely, kind little girl with a very pretty face and a brilliant personality. You're very clever and nice, and you can do ANYTHING you want in life..."

Then I heard a toilet flush behind the cubicle and a girl from my class slinked out giving me a very strange look.

@NobodyToldYou

Ooh - that's a very bad one.

I can't believe no-one was willing to come and whisper in your ear about that.

This brilliant. Really needed a good laugh. did a subtle slut drop fabulous

@HasThisSoddingNameGoneToo Ah, but at least you knew she didn't wash her hands. Information is power, my friend.

Bit outing, but I was at an embassy event last year with a lot of people who I really do need to respect me. There were cameras around, showing scenes of us live on a big screen. I was sitting next to a colleague who was trying to work out a large, phallic looking party popper. I leaned forward to help him, and it went off in my cleavage. This was aired on the huge screen, and it still gets mentioned occasionally.

Arrived at a hotel late one night. The following morning I rushed in to my hotel bathroom totally naked to go for a wee, only to discover that the large window had completely normal clear glass and overlooked a now busy building site. Although I didn't fully appreciate this fact until I was sitting on the loo, which happened to be directly opposite the window, so I was perfectly on eye level with the builders on the scaffolding....

Did a wee and then commando crawled back in to the bedroom.

I was a croupier on a cruise ship when I was 21, about 30 years ago. I was dealing a very boring game of roulette in the middle of the afternoon to a geriatric couple from New York, when the old woman suddenly grabbed me by the wrist and said, "Honey, you're hanging out of your dress!" I looked down to see one breast had escaped from my strapless evening dress, promptly stuffed it back in, and got on with dealing the game. Still makes me smile to think about it!

My most embarrassing moment... I was sat on a bus on one of the seats that faces another seat.

I was happily chatting to a friend (next to me) when the bus came to a sudden stop.... I face planted the crotch of the man in front of me!

I then had to sit for the rest of the journey red faced and cringing. My friend found it hilarious!!

I posted this before, but once at a meeting I had to go and speak to a senio manager who was in the hotels business suite getting something printed or whatever.

The business suite was like a glass walled room . With two hotel staff in it, and said manager standing talking to one of them.

I strode purposefully across the lobby and straight into the glass wall, not realising it was there. Properly full body smash into it, bounce back thing.

They all looked up in shock, so in my embarrassment, I simply gave a cheery wave, turn on my heel and walked off again. Much to their bemusement and mine.

Early 20s in a driving lesson with a very hot instructor. Glance down and realise my blouse has become completely unbuttoned, exposing my not inconsiderable breasts. I let out a horrified squeak which obviously drew hot instructor's attention to what I was doing. He immediately turned to look out of the window but I could see his shoulders shaking with not very subdued laughter.

Not my most embarrassing story ever but that takes a lot of telling!

@Bluntness100 sorry but that really made me laugh! Brilliant 😀

Hasthissoddingnamegonetoo that made me cry 😢

😂Great thread, OP!

Newly promoted and feeling just a teensy bit nervous, I went to great lengths to make sure my uniform looked absolutely immaculate and, striving to project the very image of competence, reported for duty...only to glance down and realise that I was still wearing my slippers. Pink fluffy things.

And then, knowing this, I had to walk all the way back to the car park to get my spare shoes from the boot....

Walking through the city centre of my hometown with my earphones in in my own little world I happened to look up-and realised if I took another 2 steps I’d be walking up into the back of an ambulance

So I quickly moved to the right

And fell over the poor girl on the stretcher in a neck brace being wheeled towards it

I ran away with bleeding knees

I was on a busy bus in rush hour in the city and was wearing this skirt that I was really attached too even after I'd lost some weight and it was too big for me.

I was standing at the front of the bus waiting to get off when it fell to my ankles. I don't know why but I totally froze and just stood there pretending it hadn't happened. When it was eventually time to get off I picked it up and sauntered off the bus really casually

I didn't even have nice pants on.

I'm not even going to start on mine as I would fill the thread on my own

I just wanted to say

A. Do you have any toupee tape, OP? Amazing stuff.

B. WTF is a slut drop?

I was volunteering at a national park abroad and several of the hot, Latin park rangers took some of us volunteers to swim in a river. Everyone was having a go at diving in off a rock so I did too, but i was really anxious about it. Under the water I panicked and surfaced as fast as I could, bursting out of the water. Everyone looked at me and the hot park rangers kind of went "erm, erm..." while I just stood there in a daze, until a kind female volunteer marched over and pulled my tankini top back up that had fallen down off both my boobs . In my panic to get out I'd totally failed to notice!

@WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles no, but after this morning it is on my list!

It is embarrassing and I think I'd be mortified. My only wig experience was during chemo but it was temporary and nothing like that happened but I dreaded it. Try and laugh it off if you can.

Some of these are hilarious and some the stuff of nightmares

Topsecretidentity I cringe for you you poor thing!

As a student I used to cycle the three miles in to University. One day I got up to find I had a puncture and no time to fix it but one of my housemates kindly said I could borrow her bike for the day. Her bike had a crossbar, which would normally have been no problem but because it was a warm, sunny day I had worn a floaty cotton skirt instead of the usual jeans. I decide the best way to tackle this was to bunch the skirt in front of me and tie it in place to the crossbar with string.

This worked a treat on the way in so I did the same for the return journey. It was now late afternoon and the traffic was very busy. I got to a set of traffic lights on a dual carriage way where I had to turn right, rode to the front of the line of traffic waiting for the lights to change.

Unfortunately at this moment I realised that my chain had come off! I got off the bike and tried to push it to the side but instantly realised this was a no-go because I was tied to it and would fall over. The lights were just changing so I ended up lifting the bike and running to the side of the road with the bike in my arms and my skirt up around my waist, dodging the oncoming traffic as I went. Afterwards I hid behind a wall for several minutes until everyone who had seen my knickers would have gone.

Was this I Tunbridge Wells by any chance?

@Amibeingdaft81 you have frightened the life out of me! Did you see me?!

sergeilavrov, are you Theresa May?
I regularly embarrass myself. Last week my knee buckled as I walked down a corridor full of kids (I'm a teacher) and the only way I could prevent myself falling over was by performing a grotesque arm flailing/bodypopping combo complete with loud shrieks. The kids were
