Embarrassing Stories

One time I clogged my friend’s toilet. Instead of going through the embarrassing ordeal of asking him for a plunger, I decided to try and flush again, praying that it would go down. Unfortunately, it did not go down, but instead, began to overflow out the top of the toilet along with gallons of toilet water. My friend and I spent the next two hours cleaning.

I was doing hookah with my brother and his friend in the garage. They passed me the pipe to take a hit and I couldn’t resist. I began to rip it hard, when all of a sudden, I let one rip myself. I farted long and loudly in the middle of the pure silence. They couldn’t stop laughing at me.

One time when I was walking home past curfew, I saw a car coming and quickly jumped into the nearest driveway. I didn’t want the car to see me so I ducked behind some bushes. However, the car happened to be heading toward the house I was hiding in front of. Not having enough time to move, I sat quietly and prayed the driver wouldn’t see me. However, as soon as he pulled in, the headlights shone right on me. The driver got out and started yelling at me, thinking I had broken in to his house. Knowing he wouldn’t believe me if I tried to explain, I got up and bolted.

It was the fourth grade, when I was really skinny. I was wearing this one pair of jeans with a belt, but it didn’t help much. I stood up and my pants went straight to my ankles. After I quickly pulled my pants up, I looked around the room to see if anybody saw, and luckily enough only my best friend had seen. For a few minutes after that, I had complete embarrassment on my face and couldn’t stop smiling.

One time at football practice, we were doing hitting drills. They made me, the smallest guy on the team, go against the biggest guy. As I was running the ball, he came in to make the tackle and body slammed me to the ground in front of everyone. After that, I was super dizzy, and everyone was laughing at me.

I was doing my speech on how George Washington saved the Revolutionary War. During my speech, I was about half way done, when I noticed how many people were staring at me. I started to sweat and I was really nervous because it was worth about half of my grade. I felt pressure in my appendix, and then it just came out. I cut the cheese, and it was a big one. It lasted for about five seconds. The entire class broke into laughter, and I just walked out without finishing the speech. I was ridiculed for a week.
