So that was awkward

What was your most awkward moment you remember ever experiencing?
Me? I had a final job interview in Nola with ADP. The VP had Tony Robinson's books behind his desk. I could not respect the man after I knew he was a Robinsob cronie. He could tell. He got pissed at me and made the interview real awkward. I went there expecting an offer and didn't get one. I decide to end the interview and I said this is awkward but I am just gonna go now.
Another awkward moment was the time I threw up over the rail at a condo and hit a family below.

Asking someone how their dad was doing not knowing he had passed away

Church youth group. I managed to work my way over next to the hot girl. During the prayer, I tried to sneak out a silent fart that turned out to be less than silent.

Walking in and seeing my brother's girlfriend getting out of the shower.

My wife's friend's mother was dying of cancer. I thought she had already died. When I saw him, I extended my condolences. He just looked at me and said, "Well, she isn't dead yet." I felt like a total arse, but he was very understanding about it.

A distant cousin who I hadn't seen in years reconnected with me on FB. I mentioned that the last time I had seen her was at her wedding, not knowing she had divorced her bipolar husband after he burned through all her money.

I had an awkward interview at some place in New Orleans. It was right out of undergrad at LSU and I drove all the way to NOLA and parked in Canal Place. Interviewed for an entry-level sales job selling those bullshite vacation timeshares…. and things went well enough, hit it off with the potential boss, got a tour of the layout, etc.
Then I asked them to validate my parking as I was leaving and they refused. I kind of flipped out and said "why the hell would I want to work for you if you won't validate my parking? What kind of impression is that?" I literally walked into the potential boss' office b/c A) I was pissed and B) I thought that maybe it was a test or something.
It wasn't a test
He asked me to leave and said he was disappointed that I made this a point of contention. Never heard from them which was fine b/c I landed a legit job with a Fortune 1000 company shortly thereafter - much better gig.

I learned the "never ask a woman if she's pregnant" one time... in all fairness, she WAS pregnant and had the baby 2 weeks prior and I had just returned from Iraq around the same time and didn't know she had the kid...
"When are you due?"
"I had my son 2 weeks ago"
"..."
Moments later, after recovering from that awkward moment, I held the door and said, "After you, sir" and she replied, "excuse me?" ...bad afternoon

One of my wife's larger friends came to our daughters birthday party. Last time I had seen her was several months prior and she was pregnant. Since I really don't keep up with that type of stuff my first words to her were "that baby should be dropping any day now." She then replied "We baptised him this morning."

Asking a guy at the Burbank dog park why he had those zebra - like marks on his legs. He said it was from the extension cord his father beat him with when he was young.
Mrs House wanted to beat me with an extension cord after that.
