Your most funny or embarrassing moments

Post by Ali3n »

So this topic has come up in more than one occasion where you are in a conversation with someone and you start talking about something you did which was embarrassing and you can’t help but laugh at your self. Let’s share with the others. :mrgreen:

I will start. :blushing:

Sometime last year we went to my b-I-l in Pietersburg for the weekend. My wife normally packs as I normally forget thing. OOPS!!! We got there and the next morning I took a shower and wanted to put my deodorant on. Found none… She forgot it at home so I saw a can which looked like my wife’s deodorant and thought to myself it cant hurt to smell like a woman for the day, besides I am trying to get in touch with my feminine side. Sprayed it on and forgot about it. Later the evening I remembered it and told my wife that I used her deodorant and she looked at me surprisingly… I thought to myself “What have I done?” She said she only had her roll-on with her. So I said what about the can of deodorant that was there? She started laughing loudly and told me that it was spray on sunscreen… :blackeye: Obviously this all came out at dinner so everyone knows… :blackeye: Stupid… :crazy:

But you never got sunburnt under your arms did you?! :lol:

Something that stayed with me since high school is something that happened in a play. I had the lead role (and funny enough the play name was "Poppekas" and I was a clown.. go figure). The play was about 35 minutes to 40 minutes if all goes well. But that night it didn't. I believe we did it in 25minutes. What happened is that I had two very similar lines about 15pages apart in my script and of course I went for the second one first and we continued from there. The audience didn't notice anything but as soon as I realised what I did... eish

Like they say "Enough said" :oops: :oops:
Can it get any worse if you driving the BEST :?:
The worst of all is you are with friends and one of them is interested in buying a Lux for himself, because you told him it's the best, and he ends up digging one out :twisted: :twisted:

Nou dat jy dit vertel....

Ek hys my RTT in my garage dak op om hom te stoor. Die eendag trek ek die bakkie in die garage en laat sak hom mooi op die dak, maak hom mooi vas, check alles en net toe ek about was om die bakkie uit die garage uit te trek, besef ek darem ek gaat nie deur daai deur pas nie. Kos my om weer af te haal, bakkie vorentoe te trek, op die bak te laat sak en hom buite te fit. Ek het gedog ek was die enigeste een wat dit gewitness het maar Linda het in die kombuis vir my staan en lag

This happened to a friend of mine when we did a school play in st.5. He was dressed as a mouse(the play was; die dapper muis) SO the mous suit had a zipper from behind the shoulders to the tail of the suit. After he got dressed, it was still about 2 hours before he had to go on. So after a hour and a half, he developed a nr 2, he tried to wait it out but 5 min before he had to be on stage he just let the nr 2 escape. He did the whole play with a nr 2 in his mouse suit. . .The cat that was suppose to catch him refuses. All the parents thought it was part of the play. . .not the nr 2, the part where the cat didn't want to catch the mouse. :thumbup:

Not my most embarrassing moment but for some young guy.....

Was at the cheese and wine festival in Franschoek/Stellenbosch area with some friends. There were tons of people at the festival.. I saw a crowd of young guys probably Stellies varsity students walking around with their faces painted. The one had his face painted like a mouse.. so I went and asked him if he was a man or a mouse, actually I said to him "is jy n man of n muis"... his friends thought I was funny, they nearly killed themselves laughing. For some reason he was not amused..... luckily, he did'nt smack me...

Ek was in starderd 4.
Vra toe die juffrou of ek badkamer toe kan gaan want die nood het gedruk en kon nie meer hou nie. Maak toe gou die dinge klaar, maak broek vas en trek zip op EINA. My vriend daar onder word toe vasgevang in die zip. Die meeste pyn wat ek tot op hede nog gehad het. Moes toe na skool verpleegster toe dat sy die zip weer kon aftrek en my vriend bevry.

Ek het halfpad deur die eerste obstacle by die Robertson challenge agtergekom Luxter wil nie die bult uit nie, diff lock aan voet plat, maar hy wil niks weet nie, ek kom toe met n skok agter ek het nie die hubs gelock nie. Ek draai toe die ruit af om die marshal te vra of hy nie gou die knoppies wil draai nie...onmiddelik vir daai obstacle gediskwalifiseer.

Die tweede obstacle vat ek toe die verkeerde "exit gate"

Was nie my dag nie, maar toe haal ons uit en ons het nog steeds die dag gewen.

I have to also add. The Landy guys who towed me are the same 2 nut cases that feature on the Jan 2012 issue of SA4x4's article about the old landies in Namibia.

Must give the guys credit, they are real good guys, end we became mates after that incident.. :thumbup: :thumbup:

F_D wrote:The following is not a Fairy Tale, but a True Story, backed by Witnesses at the time:


Many years ago, a friend and I went to collect a TV that I had lent to a chap here in Klerksdorp, newly arrived from JHB. Sadly, he was killed in a road accident shortly afterwards, and I learnt that the TV was in Joh'burg. We went to collect the TV at the flat in JHB where his sister lived. People were home because music was playing, fairly loudly from within. We knocked on the door about a dozen times, each time louder than previously, because they just did not hear us with the loud music. At the same time, I could feel a build-up of gasses that needed to be released into the atmosphere - no doubt caused by the frustration of just standing there knocking at a stranger's door and getting no response. Eventually, I could hold it in no more and the gas suddenly escaped - but not with the swift wind of silence as I had expected. No Sirree.... this one escaped with the sounds of a violent tropical storm and erupted with a deafening noise, lasting for a good couple of seconds. I could not believe it, never heard anything like it in my life.

At that precise point in time, when it had just began to release itself and nothing in this world was going to stop it, the music suddenly stopped and the door opened. Born with lightning fast reflexes, I immediately looked at my friend with a mixed feeling of shock and respect. At the same time, he looked at me, alarmed. The chap at the door gazed at us both. I was not in the least bit embarrassed, but probably covered a feeling of pride, because never had I ever heard a fart as loud as that!

On the way back to the car, I nearly dropped the TV because i was laughing so much. Happy memories, and I have been sniggering uncontrollably now as I recall this never to be forgotten tale - and I promise you, it is entirely true in every aspect!

I have never been able to repeat that feat, even when trying to outdo it. Never! One for the Guinness Book of Records. I have never felt as proud of anything as I was of that!

My most embarresing moment was the day i got Married.

The night before i tied the knot, my best man and myself realised we had not prepared any speeches.

So we Quickly scribbled something down, GOOGLED our speeches as we had no clue what to say.

Once we had all this typed up, i then called my DAD (0000MS) and he agreed to print them and then give them to us on the day of the wedding, before we had to say our speeches.

Well, yes he did bring them with. but he altered them, i didnt know what to do with myself, i was about half way through my "speech" when i realised that this is DEFINATELY not what i wrote!!!

I have never gone so red in my life :blushing: :blushing:

Luckily he had printed the original too. so i had to start a fresh.

Never the less. it was all good fun :bye: :bye: :bye:

Most embarrasing sover was toe ek met my pa se bakkie gan 4x4 het by hennops en daar in so lekker diep gat vasgesit het en my oom met sy beetle my daar moes uitsleep en daar was baie mense watr gestaan en lag het!
Moet by sê ek het vasgesit oor die carburator wat heeltyd geflood het so net voor jy uit die gat kom het die bakkie gestall wat dan die spoed breek.

Vandat hy ge efi wasnog nooit weer met 'n rooi gesig gesit nie :lol:

Tenminste was ek nie deur 'n landy uitgesleep nie :mocking:

A few years ago, I went on holiday to America (visiting my sister) We'd just finished eating at a restaurant, me and my sister went to the loos. After I washed my hands, I went to walk out, following the girl in front of me who opened the door. She walked through with me following close behind and it was only when I realised what I'd done. The girl hadn't walked out the exit but into the disabled toilet. She looked horrified and people began sniggering at me. To top it all, my sister called out, “Love, I don't think she needs your help in there!", before collapsing into a fit of giggles. At times like these, you just think, "Why me?"

As a child, we were in a double-decker trolley bus riding home to where we lived in Jozi. I was 6 at the time. Now we had just returned from visiting my Dad's grave at West Park Cemetery and everyone was in a sombre mood, but my 6-year-old brain was busy with other thoughts. The bus had straps hanging from the roof and the rear side seats that were typical of trolley buses those days ran along the axis of the bus and not transversely, like the ones closer to the front. The bus was full and so we sat on the side bench seats. Those straps intrigued me.

As the bus filled up and being a polite 6-year-old, I offered my seat to a young lady who boarded the bus at one of the stops. I found that if I stood on the step in front of those longitudinal seats, I could just reach the roof straps. So I grabbed first one, then the other. Exciting stuff.

As I hung in suspense from the straps with widespread legs and toes just touching the both rows of steps, a thought occurred to me. In all innocence, I said: "Look Mommy, I'm like Jesus hanging from the Cross". Well, at least I thought it was an appropriate thing to say, having just come from a Cemetery, but the whole bus burst out laughing at me. I was puzzled by this, as I really saw nothing wrong with what I had said but was pleased to see my Mom also was now laughing!

We were sitting in Hwange National Park Zim last year watching 3 lions that had just pulled down a small ellie....shame....anyway, the hide was full of onlookers, looooooong lenses and exxxxpensive binox. While we were all quietly sitting there watching, from the left of the hide comes a head of buffalo (approx. 20) to drink water.

My 6jr old pipes and says " Kyk Mamma! Hier kom die beeste... :!: "

Well...I did make as if she was not mine..... :oops: :oops: :oops:

Okay, So I have managed to beat my previous embarrassing moment…

:blackeye: The other night while removing the LED park lights the one jumped out of the socket and ended up falling into the headlight thus making it impossible to get it out. Only alternative was to remove the whole headlight and shake it out. So after removing the bolts I received a call on my cell phone. Spoke for a while and after the call I placed my phone on top of the tire. Took the headlight out and shook it until the LED fell out. Replaced the headlight and put in the std globes again. Closed the bonnet and got in to park the car. As I started to reverse I herd something fall but sounded like something inside the house so I ignored it. Reversed and saw something where I was parked but still did not realize; only after parking the car I went to investigate it. I drove right over my phone. You can still see the tire marks on the back cover. Put it on and only the screen had cracked but still worked and I could see only to try it an hour later after it had started to bleed. I still feel stupid… Can’t have it repaired on guarantee as I loaded a different operating system on it my self.

There are no pills for stupidity!!! :oops: Besides, they won’t work on me!!!

Ye those moments come and go at intervals!!! Last Sunday a waterpipe burst on the BMW just as we arrived home. I checked and saw where the crack is and said to my best half i will fix in the morning before i go to work. Monday morning got up a bit earlier only to discover my hands are too big to enter the little space.Mmmm jip i called "liefie" to remove the pipe for me. I cut the pipe a bit shorter and she put it back for me. Mmmm then i strip the thread on the clamp. Ok put on a new one, fill up with water and start mom's taxi. Lekker she's happy. That afternoon after work she said the computer shows "coolant level low". Mmm Luig@t me checked the computer and owners manual but never open the bonnet and check what is what where it matters, so i just spinned her a story of "maybeee it's the sensor". Tuesday i recieved a "sms" at work: "If you're stupid then you are stupid, when a pipe burst you loose water and after you repair whatever and fill it again it does not mean all the air is out of the system, so before i took the kids to school this morning i filled the plastic bottle to the required level and the computer has reset."
My wife is NOT mechanically stupid, and i should have known better

So 5 jaar terug trou een van my goeie vriende - Hulle vra toe vir my om MC te wees. Ek is nie die een vir speaches ens nie. So by die onthaal aangekom kry ek nogals n cordless mic wat ek die heel aan saam met my kan dra.

Sit by die tafel en mamma se maar kom ons drink bietjie wyn vir die senuwees. So maak ek ons tafel se wyn en die tafels om my se wyn klaaaaar toe begin die speaches.

So wil ek se julle moet n suksesvolle huwelik he maar toe kom dit uit n suksexfolle huwelik he waarop my vriend toe ook al lekker klam agter die ore se hy hoop ook so.

Min te se daardie aand was verskriklik lekker maar die dag daarna nie so lekker nie.

My vriend ry daardie aand nogals met n shofeer huis toe hy het blykbaar die heeltyd vir die druiwer gese hy moet stadiger mean while ry hy skaars 40km/h

Okay gister het ek mos met een helse megraine opgestaan was van plan om te gaan werk en hoop dit word beter :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

So toe begin die oggend mos nou met lekker uitdagings probeer om die polo uit die driveway te trek deur 'n 3m wye hek waarvan die lux 'n deel vol staan,dis gewoontlik nie 'n probleem nie die probleem kom in deur die feit dat ek dik op pynpille was :crazy: en so deur my deur die akkies gemoed verloor die polo mos amper die spieel hy het reg voor oor gebuig en so staan en lag my verloofde mos lekker vir my want ek preek altyd vir haar oor hoe om nie die kar te stamp uit die driveway nie. :oops:

Bottom line is ek het net daar besluit die kantoor sien my nie en bly toe maar by die huis. :blushing:
