30 Of The Most Embarrassing Situations People Have Gotten Themselves Into

Meh, they already had 387 guests anyway, so what’s one more lol.

Here in Finland it is usually OK to have wedding crashers. If the extra person acts nice then people usually do not care if there are uninvited people. There are also people who visit funerals only to get some free food.

Did she end up in family shots?

That was sweet of you them..

at least she ate !

Cringy but sweet. I would have left her money or a thank you card or gift.

Greeks love open air spaces. I’d like to live that way.

She may have been happy for the company :)

Look at this, Donald! Corfu is so against walls (and fences) that they let random strangers into their yards to drink their beers!

Normal hospitality in areas not spoiled by modern mindsets.

You people don't lock cars?

This happened to my aunt Jo once. She came out of the store, got into the car she thought my uncle was waining in and told the man "Hit the road!"... My uncle was dying of laughter in the car behind them. My aunt got out of the wrong car, got into the right car, smacked my uncle and told him it was alle his fault.

ive unlocked a car and got in and realized it wasnt my car, when u used keys to open the door

After school my daughter came out to the line of cars and got into a white Ford sedan. She looked the old lady driving and thought "that's not my grandma!" She got out and went two cars back in the row to the correct Ford. She felt very embarrassed, but I told her any grandma would feel sympathetic to a child that made a mistake.

Something similar happened to me once. I was walking out of 7-11, looking at my phone, pressed unlock on my keys, opened the door to get in when I heard "can I help you? from a man standing in the 7-11 doorway. I was getting into his BMW that he apparently left unlocked. Lesson for me, pay attention. Lesson for him, lock your doors.

Awwww. I would have hugged you still.

At work, a lady who was short and heavy set with a pretty round face approached me with arms wide open. She was friendly and looked like the Welsh/German women in my family. Thinking she must be one of my mother's cousins, I gave her a hug, and said "I don't remember your name!" She told me that we had never met, she was just happy to meet me.

The lady's comment was also worth a hug

no shame

Sweet that she called you dear.

I can relate

Reminds me of a story my mom once told me, where my dad mistook a fire hydrant for a kid in a funny raincoat.

I felt so bad (and a horrible mother) when after a medical exam before school the doctor told me my kid needed glasses and her vision is like +3. They did eye tests for kids in preschool and daycare and never caught anything wrong. And all the while my poor kid went around looking at blurry things. The first thing she said when she tried on her new glasses "I can see the cracks in the pavement!" I wanted to slap myself so hard!

We were driving around our community looking at Christmas lights. I loudly explained, Oh look Jamails Grocery has a Santa going into the chimney on the roof! Everyone kept asking where, and I kept pointing. It was actually their sign, and boy, did I need glasses!

Jesus is Lord

Awww you were 7. Not cringy but cute.

i laughed too hard at this one!

i think i was 27, when there was a major sale, people kept trying everything on in front of any mirror, because chances to ever get to a fitting room were slim, and i actually tried some girl's coat on, tried stretch my arms to see if it fits properly..

This is so cute

I don't know why that sounds familiar to me. I think something like that happened where a girl did me that way.I'm from Oklahoma.

Just goes to prove that pretty much any grandma is a nice person to talk to even if you aren't related.

I was teaching my daughter how to call for help when she was about 3 ½, and also my mom who lived a few blocks away. it was Christmas time, and she was really getting into it, with the Kris Kringle says to see if she was good. I was in the kitchen and went towards the bedroom, and overheard her chatting away. When I went in there, I realized she was on the phone, and asked who she was talking to? She said Santa, so I quickly took the receiver away and apologized. The gentleman on the phone was so kind, and said he was really enjoying the conversation, as they had no grandkids. She continued to call him several more times, and stayed in touch until we moved. I still have no idea who she was talking to!

That happened to me. My mother called and we talked for 20 minutes. I caught her up on my college studies and work. She asked if I had a cold because I sounded funny. I said no, then we slowly realized she wasn’t my mother and I wasn’t her daughter. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Something similar happened to my dad one time. Back in the 1980's when he was younger (he's forgotten it now) he used to speak fluent Japanese. One time this Japanese grandma dialed his number by mistake, and out of habit from when he lived in Japan, my dad used a Japanese greeting to answer, and they ended up talking in Japanese for like 40 minutes, before finally my dad told her that she wasn't his relative, he could just speak Japanese.

I did this except I was calling my parents to ask them to stay at my friend's house. I talked to both mom and dad!

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg! But seriously: if you change a full diaper and continue eating (be it merely licking something off the arm), you have some issues!
