Most embarassing mistake while trying to look cool

[Snarky Username]

Now I want to make a band called "The Black Dalai Lama" because that's the most awesome name ever.

Tried Guitar Hero on expert once thinking that it had to be as easy as it looks.

I immediately regretted that decision when my hand started cramping up and my head exploded.

Suddenly realising your naked i guess.

As for my own personal experience, tripping up on my own words and ending up going "blaaughg".

Bad times.

I remember one time a conversation on the bus home from school about college football (in the USA) and as I was about to insult a friend after he made a stupid comment, I accidentally referred to it as the NFL.

Much lulz ensued as I admitted my mistake.

I kick jumped up to a high branch in a tree, climbed for a bit. to dismount i swung twisted in the air and landed perfectly, too 2 steps on the flat open ground, tripped over nothing and fell on my face.

I was riding my bike around town one day as I usually do. On my way back home, I encountered a hill that, while fun to ride down, is about an eighty degree up hill ride. So I cranked my bike up to highest gear, turned on Eye Of The Tiger on my iPod, and said... Oh yeah. I got this.

Annnnd, didn't work. As soon as I hit the hill, I started sweating bullets, panting like someone severely out of shape, slowed to a crawl, and then toppled over sideways onto the pavement. I messed up my legs over some rocks and it was just as a truck of hot guys drove by and had a laugh. I walked my bike up the rest of the way while bleeding from my knees with grass in my hair. Fuck that hill, I don't go that way no more.

That made me choke me on my cornflakes. Thank you so much for a good laugh.

On a similar note, I went down a hill on a bike with no brakes. As I hit the bottom the bike veered off to the left and I carried straight on. I split my top lip open and completely ruined my right hand. It was months before I could use it properly and I still have the scars 11 years on.

LAughing at someones joke so hard that the beer went through my nose and onto a girl I liked's top. Fortunate you may say. She said otherwise.

I don't try to look cool.

Most people don't notice when you are looking cool, but you definitely get noticed when you fail at doing so.

One time in my high school Spanish class, we had all finished up our assignment and a friend of mine had a guitar. I was asked if I played(I don't) and replied that I could sing. So, of course some dick shouted to everyone that I was going to serenade all the girls in the class. It was then that I noticed they were all pretty hot and totally expected me to sing. I totally blanked on what to sing. A few false-starts and half-mumbled lines into a song I normally would have killed(if I sang it to myself), I got booed for a few minutes until the bell rang.

Sad, sad day.

I was on the phone the other day with my boss. I was going to reply with either 'Yeah' or 'uh-huh'.

I ended up saying 'ye-ha', just like a Texan.

*cry*

I had just learnt how to ride a bike and I was at the park and they were all these jumps etc, and I was trying to impress everyone, so I went and did it, and well.....yeah it didn't end well.

The worst part was the jump wasn't even that hard, like a little mini one.

Got up out of my seat on a bus, walked towards the door as he was pulling up to the stop, didn't see a wet patch on the floor...

Slipped, as we were stopping ended up moving horizontally towards the bit where the walkway goes left, (like a dropkick but more retarded) and hit the floor, scrambled up and the hinge for the driver's door snagged my trousers and tore it all the way down the side while I ran off.

I now own a car, fuck the planet.

Wasn't exactly trying to act cool, but this was embarrassing seeing as I call myself a gamer.

Went into Blockbusters to return some DVDs and saw Heavy Rain available for rent. I thought to myself yeah, I'll rent that bad boy. So off I trot to the Xbox section trying in vain to find one, obviously fail. Go up to counter and ask the guy if they have any available for rent on the 360. He looks at me, pretends to check on his computer and then says, "No mate, it didn't get released for the 360."
"Oh yeah," says I, who then proceeds to shuffle dejectedly from the shop.

I mean I know that, I knew that. It's one of the few exclusive titles the PS3 has that I was interested in. I'd thought about this before, decided that it was time that I stopped lending my PS3 to my brother so I could, among other things, play this very game! Ahhrg! I don't know where my brain was that day but it wasn't in my head.
