Ok, well I'm making this thread for two reasons mainly.

1: To get something off my chest that has been bothering me for a long while.

I had this friend, who was a girl, we weren't really close friends, but we did visit each others houses on occasion etc. One day about 2 years ago I went over to her house for a visit and found out she had changed her hairstyle, it was really cool looking, a style I find really appealing on girls.

Anyway in a spur of the moment of stupidity I decided to take some photos of her on my mobile's camera which she was tolerant of, but seemed uncomfortable. I carried this on and got maybe 3 shots and also got some video time (yes I know what). At this point she seemed a little freaked out, because I didn't even say why I was doing that (I found her hair really cool basically).

I'd like to say though I had no 'sexual' motivation to do this, obviously that didn't matter since the stupidity speaks for itself. It wasn't until after that I realised how unbelievably dumb I was, I could have rammed my head into a wall, in fact I could do that now...

Needless to say I kind of lost contact with her afterwards, however I know her friend who is the boyfriend of one of my best friends and she hasn't mentioned anything about the incident so I'm not sure if she knows, but knowing girls she proberly does. I want to apologize, but obviously getting her to meet me might be tough, oh and I'm told she has taken up kung fu too 😌

2: And now to make myself feel better I would like to hear some of your stories, have you ever done something really embarrasing, dumb, stupid or foolish? Then this is the place to talk about it!
 
I have two stories and both are really embarrasing.

back when i was going to culinary school in San Francisco there was a girl I kind of liked. We had just started our knife skills class and I was tryin to show-off. Things were goin' good until my teacher said to the class, 'be careful not to cut your fingers.'

So what do I do? I slip and slice a big chunk of my tumb almost off (it was hanging by a thread of skin). I dropped my knife and tried to wrap my thumb in a towel. In the process of doing that i splashed blood on the girls clean, neat, and WHITE chef jacket. Gods, I felt like I was goin' to die! After that she didn't say much to me.

My next story took place back when i was goin' to college. I met this really nice Japanese girl in a student club I joined. I really hated high school and looked at college as a fresh start. I spent all of high school with people who treated me like I was a freak. Busted a few heads over it. She was the first girl I met who treated me like a person. She didn't care that i wasn't the 'leading man' good looks type. Era una clase, dulce, honesto y niテアa.

Well, i worked up the guts to try and ask her out on a date. When i spoke to her I tripped over my own words. my face turned three different shades of red. I started shifting my weight from one foot to the other.

Then it happened, I stepped on her foot. I was wearing my work boots and it didn't help that I'm a big guy (thank the gods I wasn't wearing my cowboy boots). I must have said sorry at least a 1,000 times in less than a minute. unlike my first story she just smiled and said she would love to go out on a date. Yet, it was still really embarrasing.
 
I remember when I was around 13, I had a verbal fight with a classmate. He said that he'd tell his mother (can't remember what, doesn't matter), so I told him that she can s*ck me off, and that he should feel free to communicate this to her. Well he did...
Bloody hell, I have never seen such a furious harpy. That b*tch nearly attacked me.
 
Taking a left instead of a right.
In the Drumclog foothills.
On a December night.
The place has no lighting whatsoever.
I was lost for 5 hours, and had to very carefully negotiate a field of cows + bulls and follow the road by touch.
 
I've cut the tip of my thumb off while I was a prep cook. Lots of blood. @_@

I'll just list them:

Saying the wrong words in a different language
Saying the wrong words in my native tongue (english)
Saying the wrong thing....period.

Pointing out the window, only to sprain your finger becuase the window was up.
Closing the window on my hair.
Unaware that I have done so.

Walking into the side of a door.
Walking into a closed door.
Walking into the door when it's open.
I seem to have issues with doors.

And last but certainly not least:

scraping my finger and making it bleed...from a granola bar.
 
Reading your posts has made me think "damn, I'm not as embarassing as I thought"... But here's my two cents worth...

1. I ran into a wall at primary school in Scotland and took half my face off. The wall was plastered and covered in gravel type stuff, so it was a really rough surface.

2. I fell down a flight of concrete stairs and my bottom teeth came through my bottom lip. mmm nice.

3. I got attacked in a park when I was 15. I was going through a gothic phase at the time, so naturally the preppy, trendy kids saw me as an easy target. I got bottled, my head jumped on etc. Nice guys. I kept throwing punches at them (mostly hitting the ground and causing my whole forearm to go black with bruises). I had no chance, so when a girl sat on my chest and started punching my face, I grabbed her thigh and proceeded to bite a nice chunk out of it. It saved me, but god I felt bad... Got called a cannibal at school for a while. :(

4. When I started university I couldn't find my induction room... so made the mistake of asking an older student. He directed me to a room and I sat down. Looking around, most of my classmates were male and staring at me. I couldn't work out why. Until the tutor began lecturing on football studies and sport science. Wrong room. I had to get up and walk out, with a room of 200 students staring and laughing at me. Whoops.

I've got more but can't think right now. lol.
 
I am a terrible person to get into a brawl with. I would have helped you out!

There was a time when I was in middle school, and we were doing standing broad jump. Infront of a wall. I jumped, and hit the wall. Nearly broke my nose, and lots of blood.
 
Ouch... :(
That had to hurt.
Maybe we can build a time machine, go back in time and open a can of whoop-*** on those evil b**tards. :LOL:

Don't think its worth it. Being called a cannibal is a pretty cool thing.
 
I don't have anything like what ya'll have..
Okay, well I do, especially since I'm the school clutz XD
But I've done some really life-damaging things such as lying and whatever.
Well, here's the story~
Okay, I was only 10. I didn't fit in at all. I didn't know who I was and I still don't nor will I ever. I was constantly fighting with my mom, plus we were in 2 different states which didn't help. I lived with my grandma at the time. She always broke me down and tore me apart. Constantly cussed at me, teased me, threatened to hit me and such, etc. Well, I found a website called "meez" God, that became the death of me. I guess I wanted to fit in so badly that I had to lie about everything. I mean EVERYTHING. So, I met a boy on there. His name was Alexander Carter. He was 15, I was about 10 1/2, going on 11. I told him my name was Karissa Thompson. Itold him I was 16 and worked at Hot Topic. I even posed as Katie Babyfayce (a scene queen) Well, eventually we got very into each other and he wanted to meet me. So I was always telling him that I would fly down to Kansas to meet him, etc. Anywho, skip through all of this. One day, my mom found out about EVERY single thing. I couldn't feel worse. So, my mom did a background check on him and he wasn't who he said he was at all. Not even close. So when my mom told him who I really was, you was furious. He left me a message on my profile and he was like "I can't believe you're only 11!?!" etc. Well, me being stupid told him I was really 16 and that my mom told him I was 11 because she didn't want him to contact me anymore. XD Well, he didn't believe it at ALL and I got in evenmore trouble for saying that. So after about 3 months of being grounded, I got my laptop back and I was able to get back on meez and start the shizz all over again. You would think that I'd learn my lesson the first time. Well this boy was Brian. I thought he was perfect. He lived in Paris and was working at one of the local cafes. After time, we went out and I was posing as one of my friends April just to see what he would say about me. I did ask April if it was okay. She didn't care so I did it. He didn't really talk about me as much as he talked about why my friend was talking to him. Again, over time he found out and I went crawling back to him with MORE lies. So, after another 4 months of being grounded, I earned my last privilage to have a meez. I screwed up again. This time, it was with a boy named Brandon. He was 18 and bi, so I lied and said I was bi, too. I remember the first thing he said to me was "Nice cat ears" XD When he said that, I was like "Okay, he's got me" X) So, after more and more lies, he found out who I really was but he lied so neither me nor him would get in trouble. He tried telling my mom that he was 14 and was one of my friends from my school in Alabama. Well, that didn't work out. So I lost meez permantly. During that summer, I went to visit my friend/soul siter Ashley. She had a laptop and my mom had no way to find out anything. So I contacted Brandon using my "Karissa" identity. What I didn't know though is that he knew who I really was until my mom busted me for talking to me again. So, while talking to him I found out he got a 15 yr old girl pregnant and that she was engaged. Lucky her -_-Well, before all this meez crap, I was part of a GazettE forum that is now closed due to me. Yep, I did the same shizz on their that I did on meez and they closed the forum down because of it. They made a new forum, but made it loud and clear that I'm not able to join. Once they got all the members from the old forum, they blocked off the forum from any new members joining. Of course I felt bad but I blamed everyone except for myself. I did the same on a Cinema Bizarre forum, too. I don't have any luck with forums XD Well, my mom said enoughis enough and she signed me up for counseling. It's been about a year now. I can't say I'm completely fixed, but I can say I'm not completely broken and torn apart anymore. So, I earned meez back and I haven't done anything to anyone on there. I even have a boyfriend on there who lives about 20 mins away from me who's also my age. It feels nice to be "normal" I know after some of you read this, you're probably not gonna talk to me. Well, I just want some friends who can accept me for who I am now but who can also accept me for who I was and if you can't do that, I understand.
There's times where I feel like I shouldn't have a life because of what I've done. But I have realized that I shouldn't wish that on myself because what if it really happens...

HOLY CRAP!?!?
I DIDNT KNOW MY POST WAS THAT FREAKIN LONG XD
My Bad..Hehe
If you want, I'll delete that or make it shorter
Hehe...-_-
like I said, I talk forever

^ Needs paragraphs xx0Snapxx ;) .

I've done a lot of sleepy dumb stuff- when i get up in the morning, usually for the first 15minutes i'm so tired i just do stuff on autopilot. Dumb sleepy mistakes i've done in this morning mode;

1. Put handsoap on my toothbrush instead of toothpaste.
2. Put salt instead of sugar in my tea.
3. Light a rolly the wrong way around.
4. Put orange juice in my cereal instead of milk.
5. Put my underwear on inside out.
etc

Yeah i do some dumb stuff when i'm sleepy lol :p !
 
Well, I rather do all of that than what I've done in the past.
At least doing that wouldn't make me feel as much stupid as I do now..
 
I have broken my ,
Left arm
Right arm
Left wrist
left hand 5 different bones
left hand finger X 3
Ribs X 3
left Leg
Right Ankle
Nose X 4 times
Sternum

And altogether I have had 267 stitches through various accidents and all this before I was 22 years old.

From experience, broken legs hurt the most at the time ,but broken ribs hurt for the longest.
