I traveled to Ecuador seven years ago, and my cousin, acting like an idiot, kicked my arse in a museum. So, totally pissed off, I sought revenge. My cousin’s family and I were at the counter buying maps and my cousin was right next to me. Nobody else was around except a middle-aged lady, actively engaged in buying her own maps, and standing right next to my cousin. What better time to get revenge on my cousin, when he can’t do anything about it? Looking straight ahead, expressionless, I carefully brought my foot up to kick my cousin in the arse. Except that my reach was a little bit too far and my foot was touching against that middle-aged lady’s arse.

Oh ****. Maintaining my composure, I quickly brought down my foot, and the lady turns and stares at my cousin, who has no idea what has happened. My cousin turns to the lady with a look that says, “What the hell do you want?” Miraculously, saying nothing, she returns to her discussion regarding her maps with the lady at the front counter without acknowledging what has happened.

I managed to get my cousin outside, alone, telling him what happened. We both started laughing hysterically. Then the lady walked outside, seeing us laughing, walked by us without saying a word.

When I was 7 I was learning about combustion in the cubby hole attached to the rear of my parents' house. I was investigating matches. I suddenly set fire to the hose-pipe and it smelt terrible and was giving off black smoke. So I returned to my bedroom and started completion of my model airfix kit. Explosions were heard as this cubby hole was where dad stored his paint pots. The house was on fire! I burned down the rear half of the house. Irony was, my airfix kit was a Lancaster bomber!

I sgined up for this internet chess site. Then I paid to become a subscriber, then I started chatting in the forums, joined and built a clan, then joined more clans. Added my own threads, and even built a website honoring my clan.

Now I can't stop.

I had to send for a tutor program from the internet to teach me how to program. It cost $50 plus shipping and I was so excited when I got the disk that I set down at the computer and hurriedly put the cd in the computer. But I fumbled the disk and i ...[text shortened]... rolled over the cd! :'(

When I told my friend what happened he couldn't stop laughing. 😠
I can think of many. For example, being the gentleman I am, allowing someone else to use the toilet first. Then feel the cramp and have nowhere else to do it but in the kitchen (easiest place to clean up).

But, I think the daftest thing I can be held accountable for was watering my friend's plastic plants for three months.
In my defence, they really looked real!

okay, we're getting to the embarrassing stuff, good. I can deliver:


once I was visiting my parents, meaning they we're at home and I was in the bar getting insults from the local morons (there's nothing like 'friends' you went to school with) and drunk out of my head. miraculously, I somehow survived the evening without getting a fist into my big mouth, and against all odds discovered myself at the front door of my parents. covered in puke, of course, but that wasn't the embarrassing part.

so, I got in, quietly crashed into some stuff, and realizing I'm pretty filthy I decided to take a shower. I was in no condition to clean my clothes, so I went into the shower with everything on. worked like a charm, and after soaking there for some time I even managed to take the clothes off. the water was nice and warm, and I thought I'd lie down for a while. passed out of course.

meanwhile, my mother had woken up, despite me being so incredibly quiet & agile, and heard me going to the shower. she fell back to sleep for a while, and woke up some time later mom-senses tingling. the shover was still on, so she came knocking on the door.

now, the thing was, the shower room drain had a habit of getting clogged, because of all the roots that had grown inside the sewers (damn those poplar trees to hell). eventually the water level in the shower room always started rising up.

so, after I didn't answer or come open the door, she got worried and decided to go outside to try to peek through the window. the curtains were shut, but she could see a tiny bit through a small opening. I was lying on the floor, passed out directly on the drain of course, and the water had already risen about 10cm or so. this was where she freaked out.

the first thing that woke me up, was a big crashing sound. like a tree was falling or something. and when my hazy head was still trying to make out what the noise was, the shower room door got smashed in with another appropriate noise, and about half a dozen of firefighters crashed in with axes. I greeted them with a mean drunken glare and a pissed off "what?!".
