Once, I went to a job interview. I was so nervous that when I stood up to shake hands with the interviewer, I accidentally knocked over my full cup of coffee. It splashed all over their important papers and my own resume. I was mortified as I tried to quickly clean it up with tissues, but it just made a bigger mess. The interviewer was nice about it, but needless to say, I didn't get the job.
A friend of mine went on a first date at a really nice restaurant. He wanted to impress the girl so he ordered a steak. When the steak came, he cut into it and it made a really loud noise like a squeaky toy. Everyone in the restaurant turned to look. He was so embarrassed but the girl just laughed. He said he could feel his face getting hotter by the second.
I was in a crowded elevator. A woman accidentally farted. It was silent but smelled awful. She tried to play it off by coughing loudly, but we all knew what had happened. People started fanning the air with their hands.
There was this time when I was in a public restroom at a shopping mall. The toilet paper roll was empty and I didn't realize until it was too late. I had to call out to the lady cleaning outside the bathroom to pass me some toilet paper. It was so mortifying, especially when I heard other people in the restroom giggling.
When I was going through puberty, my voice started changing. It would crack at the most inconvenient times. I was in the middle of a class presentation and my voice went from normal to a really high pitch all of a sudden. It was so funny in retrospect but at that moment I wanted to disappear.
In my high school English class, a boy in the back row farted during a very quiet reading time. It was like a trumpet blast. The whole class burst into laughter, and the teacher had to wait for a while to regain control.
I was at a new job and still getting used to the office layout. I thought I was going into an empty meeting room to use my phone privately. But it turned out it was the bathroom. I was just standing there on my phone when someone walked in. I quickly said 'Wrong room!' and scurried out, feeling so stupid.
During puberty, the hair on my legs started to grow. I didn't know how to handle it at first. I went swimming once and when I got out of the pool, I realized my leg hair was all matted and looked really strange. It was an embarrassing moment but also made me realize I needed to start taking care of it.
I had a sleepover at my cousin's. In the middle of the night, I had a really vivid dream that I was falling off a cliff. I started thrashing around in my sleep and ended up falling out of the bed. Everyone woke up because of the big thud, and when they saw me on the floor, they couldn't stop laughing.
Once at school, my friend was running really fast in the hallway. Suddenly, his pants got caught on a doorknob and he got a huge wedgie. Everyone around started laughing. He was so embarrassed that his face turned bright red.
