31 Funny Tales of Personal Embarrassment

Even as birth control and prophylactics may serve as folks’ primary methods of contraception, one Redditor had a saucier idea for practicing safe sex: using condiments.

During a high school hookup, one Redditor decided to do the responsible thing, reaching into their pocket and grabbing protection before getting it on with their crush. The only problem with their move? It wasn’t actually a condom. It was a McDonald’s ketchup packet — the contents of which were now coating their partner’s hair. “Those rigid edges got me at 17,” they recalled of their pocket mix-up. 

That said, accidentally covering your partner in fast-food ketchup is far from the only humiliating blunder folks have faced. Below, other Redditors share their most embarrassing moments, the wildest of which include farts, faceplants and Red Lobster visits.

noturmoms_spaghetti 5y ago I ran cross country in high school. I would lead stretches, meaning that both the boys and girls teams were circled around me.

GoodFellaGotEm 5y ago In 8th grade I had a teacher Mr.Jean. Не was 6'3, had to be over 400 pounds and had a lazy eye. Mr. Jean was known for having bottles and bottles of febreeze in his room. Whenever he would smell a student stinking he would stand up out of his chair, go from isle to isle sniffing kids and spraying a cloud of mist over the kid that thought he smelled foul. I had forgot to wear deodorant one day and I was lucky enough to be rained in the freshness. 4.1K ...
Whacking_Material 5y ago My freshman year of college (on my 19th birthday) there was a fire in my dorm. I was in the shower when the alarm went off. Had to jump out and right then, a male RA runs in yelling that we need to evacuate immediately. I grabbed the closest towel I could find and barely covered myself up in time for him to look over. I then had to stand outside in nothing but a towel for over two hours while the fire was put out and the building was cleared. The fire was caused by some

onesmilematters 5y ago I was waiting for a friend to arrive at my home. Said friend was having a severe cold, so when the doorbell rang, I ran to open the door and jokingly pulled my shirt up so it would cover my nose and mouth to prevent infection. I pulled a little too high. And this, ladies and gentlemen, is how I opened the door to a baffled salesman with my boobs hanging out. Не blushed. I blushed. We stared at each other for a second before I closed the door and hid in the darkest corner of my
