I was just thinking about how fail-tastic the past two days have been, and I was wondering if anyone else had any embarrassing stories that they would like to share. Here are two Today when I got home from work I noticed a gigantic rip in the back of my pants. It was probably about a 7 in long rip, right in the ass of my pants.None of my co-workers felt the need to tell me about this. I don't even understand how I didn't catch it. But anyways tomorrow I have to go buy new work pants. Yesterday night I was really hungry and there was no food in the house, so I decided to go get something to eat at price chopper. It was a little chilly out so I put on the nearest coat I could find. It happened to be my long black coat of badassery. Whenever I put this coat on it makes me feel like an action hero. Just the way it swishes in the breeze, and when I walk, and when I inevitably decide to kick the air just to see how the coat moves and makes the flapping noise that badass coats are known for. So I put on this coat and head outside, with my "I am so badass in this coat" walk. So of course I slam the door and the coat gets caught in the door. I flail my arms around, hanging from the door for a second before fishing the key out of my pocket and opening the door. I think the coat is telling me I am unworthy of its awesomeness. It probably knows that I could not beat up anyone, if my life depended on it... This is the second time that has happened. So yeah, anyone else have any major failures lately?

Last time I went out all gothed up with my cloak, I got out the door, shut the door, attempted to walk and realised I'd shut my cloak in the door. I had to ring the bell and get my brother to come and open the door for me.

I stepped on my pepper spray canister, sprayed the evil piano in my practice room (and myself) and it was so potent it affected the whole classroom attached to my practice room (30 people in it) and got into the ventilation system. It first hit the main music hall outside the classroom with around another 20 people and the offices across the smaller hall with all the secretaries. It eventually got to the band room and the class rooms on the second floor. Campus security came and shut down the building and all the classes were canceled for the rest of the day.
Everyone (except those directly sprayed) loved me.

Scarygothgirl, I'm glad that you were able to join me in the "people who get awesome articles of clothing stuck in doors" club.

It's cool. I can't help but laugh when I think about it. I was even laughing about it that day, once I got over the insane pain that is being pepper sprayed. Plus, how many people can say they pepper sprayed an entire department? I'm willing to bet not many. Oh and I karmaed you 'cause somewhere you mentioned the score from chosen, and you're awesome for that.

Yeah, I must admit, that is pretty epic, you may have unknowingly set a record for most people effected by one can of pepper spray at one time. Also, I must confess that I when watching season 7, I sometimes leave the DVD menu on for longer than needed just so I can repeatedly hear the epic chosen score.

Robert Duncan (the composer) had the music available on his site a few years ago. That made me very happy. Last time I checked his site it was under construction though.

I had one yesterday similar to yours orangejuicepony, I was going to look at a university with my whole family. Half way there we stop at a service station. I walk all the way through the shops and stuff then lean on the wall outside the toilets and realise from the cold sensation that there's about 15cm hole in the back of my trousers and half of my knickers are on show. Luckily a nearby supermarket had a clothes sale on and I was able to purchase some cheap jeans.

Menstruation. White underwear. Locker room at school. A friend who didn't say anything until later (not sure if I'm happy aboutn that or not since I was unaware during).
Do I need to say more?

Well, at least it wasn't white trousers too. Now that would have been the epic horror story of puberty that would gain urban legend status.

Pretty embarassing, but no one ever mocked me for it afterwards, which was great. I do wonder if they giggled in the locker room and I just didn't notice. Another embarrassing story, that I'm actually proud of, is when my sis was bullied by two guys in my class on our bus (who usually bullied me as well), I stood up to them and called them swine. They mocked me and laughed, but I think that meant a lot to my sister. -EDITMenstruation. White underwear. Locker room at school.

Now that would have been the epic horror story of puberty that would gain urban legend status. The horror. That's one of the many top 20 things to tell my potential daughters; Do not wear white around that time. That reminds me of times I've "leaked". But no one noticed, because I had dark pants and discovered it quickly and could call mom who got me new pants. It's very annoying to be irregular and not able to predict when it will start. I will stop talking about my periods now. Must be gross for other people.

I was about 10-12 ish, in school. I was going to the bathroom, and a bunch of bullies were hanging outside. I tried to get out, but couldn't. I assumed they were standing outside, blocking the door, so I told them, trying to not to cry or yell, to get away. I got open the door eventually, and they laughed at me, and said no one had been standing there. Actually, I don't remember if they laughed, but one of the boys told me they hadn't been blocking the door.
Not sure if I should believe him. Any way, scary and embarrassing story. It's more embarrasing when bullies are trying to get into the bathroom while you're in it, than them blocking it. I have a vauge memory of experiencing that, with a bathroom that was like a stall, not a room, where you could see other people's feet walking buy while you're doing your business. Less scary if you get trapped in to one of those tough. I don't like being trapped in small, windowless Harry-Potter-closet-like spaces.

Okay, so about a year ago I was doing pull-ups/chin-ups in my brother's doorway (the bar attaches to the top of the door frame and whatnot). Apparently, my brother didn't attach it tight enough and I fell back, stumbling into the bathroom directly behind my brother's room (the lock on the bathroom door is broken) into the bathtub. My mom was taking a shower. The horror! *face-palm*
