What are some of your cringiest moments?

I tend to listen to political podcasts. I also bought a brand new pair of Bluetooth headphones for travel.
While getting settled in my seat for a flight (aisle, and the window passenger was in place) I decided to fire up a Rogen podcast who had Steven Crowder who was making fun of the political environment. I was half way through the interview from earlier listening. I hit play and could barely hear “fricking nazi’s everywhere. Everyone is a Nazi...”. At that point realizing Bluetooth hadn’t connected and it was blaring on my speaker. I look around in horror as a black woman in the aisle stares down at me and everyone else is staring holes in my head. The gentleman next to me says “well you have to listen to the other side sometimes” (I still don’t know what he was meaning). Commence a 2 hour awkward flight.

I was on a heater at the craps table and was trying to hold my pee until I had a break.
Didn't make it. Pissed on myself at the craps table at 5 in the morning.

When I was about 16 I was a pool cleaner and being a 16 year old I decided to wank my willy in the very very nice caverned in part of this very nice pool. They had cameras. The home owner sent the video to my boss, my grandparents.
It’s an unspoken thing that has never been talked about again. Still makes me cringe when I see a nice pool...

I was going into a suite in an office building. Everything about the door of the suite indicated it was a pull door. I pulled it about 5 times and it wouldn't move and someone on the other side then pulled it, making me realize it was a push door.

Was at a funeral when I was introduced to a friend of my father in law. We were discussing his daughter heading off to college and how it had been shopping for a segway device. I, thinking that she must be some spoiled millenial, commented, "Hey, how about this? How bout she walk to class like everyone else?" He looked at me for a second, paused, and responded, "Well....she's in a wheel chair."
I wanted to crawl into the coffin with the body, have them put me in the ground with it, and throw dirt on top of me.
However, I'm still not exactly sure how someone in a wheel chair that can't walk was going to use a segway, but I wasn't really in a position to press further.

My first few days (maybe weeks) in the working world I called my peers "sir" and "maam", strictly out of habit. Looking back, and even hearing young professionals do it now, makes me cringe.

That awkward moment when the "dead" hooker jumps out of the trunk and runs, it gets worse when it becomes apparent she can run faster in one high heel then you can with the Tyvek suit around your knees and the slick booties on your shoes.
Pro tip, don't open the trunk until the hole is dug.

Was thinking of this topic the other day.
Mizzou had just joined the SEC and the Rant was giving us all kinds of hell for not fitting in. That spring, we had a college formal trip to Memphis. I decided (drunkenly) that I was going to walk around Beale Street all night talking with a very heavy, fake (and terrible) Southern drawl while letting people know I was from Missouri. I specifically recall chatting with one of the bartenders and asking "Do y'all think we're yankees over in Missouri?" to which he sheepishly shook his head no, just being nice.
Every now and then that interaction pops in my head and makes me cringe down to my core. Hopefully I never see any of those people again

God, I have so many.
A bunch of moments from early high school when we were still figuring out the flirting/dating game that are pretty bad.

Anybody remember the guy that posted about his first meeting with new employers and starting babbling then broke out in tears for unknown reasons? Still the most cringeworthy thing I believe I have ever read here or anywhere. Still laughing and cringing at that story.

When I was 14 I slipped and fell in the center of the food court at the riverchase galleria while I was walking from Sbarro to the table. The pizza stuck to my shirt. That place was full of girls. I wanted to crawl into a hole and die.

I was a freshman at LSU in 2007 and we got a room in New Orleans for the BCSNCG.
After it was over, I kept telling all the Ohio State fans at whatever bar that we were at to "get fricked yankees" while trying to sing their O-H-I-O song, over and over and over again.
I then pissed myself and passed out in the bar.

One time I was in Houston for work and had to go to a meeting and they started talking about ways they can attract more young people to hire.
My first thought was to promote the fact that there are a lot of older people who will all be retiring in the next several years so they will have opportunity to move up, possibly faster than they would at many other places.
No one said anything and just kind of looked at me. I probably gave them a look as to say "let's be honest here. Am I wrong?". One guy said "I plan on working until they kick me out of here". Everyone kind of chuckled and moved on.
Most of the people were from that office and the others were from different offices in other states. So I had just met them all either that day or the day before.
I got a text later that day saying "you trying to get rid of all the old people?" from my manager. When I got back he was laughing about the whole thing. Evidently there were some in that meeting who didn't appreciate me saying that. The person telling him, was in the meeting as well and said that she cringed when I said it.. So evidently that was a supposedly cringe moment for me, but I was being realistic. It's not my fault me being realistic offended some people...
