60 Embarrassing Moments When People Didn’t Know Who They Were Talking To And Made A Fool Of Themselves (New Pics)
Normally, hearing the words “do you know who I am?” means you’re about to encounter someone with a very, very inflated idea of their own importance. For example, they might be the second cousin of an ex-mayor, or perhaps, three decades ago, they ran a winning touchdown at a high school football game.
But every now and then, “do you know who I am?” is the perfect answer. So we’ve gathered the best examples from around the internet of people picking a fight with the wrong person. Get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts in the comments below.

My 3 y/o daughter and I were in NYC today for Halloween event and some guy recognized her as Rapunzel from Tangled. Most people assume she’s just a generic princess so I said “i’m assuming you have kids if you could tell who she was!” and he replied actually “I voice the prince in the movie”

This one is sweet. And it's totally normal to not recognize people who do the voice in a movie, after all you don't actually see them in the movie (unless you watch the DVD extras with backstage footage or something like that, but how many dads watch DVD extras of movies like that?)

Background Info Sharer 8 months ago (edited)
Wondered what the background of a supreme court justice clerk might be so I researched Courtney Milan. Courtney Milan (psuedonym) is Heidi Bond, born 1976. She is: a bestselling author of historical romance novels known for diverse characters and themes of social justice; formerly a law professor (Seattle University School of Law), and Supreme Court clerk (Sandra Day O’Conner and Anthony Kennedy); holds a bachelor's in mathematics and chemistry from Florida State University, a master's in theoretical physical chemistry from UC Berkeley, and a Juris Doctor summa c*m laude from the University of Michigan. This info has multiple references and is easily verified by doing a search on Courtney Milan. She also has a 7-page Wikipedia article for in-depth info.

If you thought the movie looked familiar, did your brain not tell you to check if they are related? Whenever I see or hear something that sounds like something else I am familiar with, I check to se if they are related or not for curiosity. Easy way to save yourself from foot in mouth disease.

Our new principal found a proposed policy in his predecessor's desk. He called me in as faculty representative and started reading it to me. I tried to interrupt him, but he insisted on me hearing the whole thing before i commented. That is, until he reached the end and saw my name there as the author. He implemented it without any mention of me, but I never cared about recognition in such matters. My motto was "I only want one thing - my own way."
