Time for YouTalk: Most Embarrassing Moment
Posted on 25 March 2007
So I’ve discovered that this YouTalk Series idea is both popular and unpopular:
- Popular? Your’re responding and prolifically!
- Unpopular? No one’s leaving voicemails =/
So the conclusion is voicemail = not fun. We’ll keep it strictly comments. Last week’s winner (most interesting response to your favorite drink and why) = Ken!
This week’s topic:
What’s your most embarrassing moment?

Most recent: Whenever my friend Caryl calls, it pops up as “Unknown” caller on my caller ID. She’s the only one who calls that shows up like that. One day I was waiting for Caryl to call so that we could go get my tattoo, and my phone rings with “Unknown.” My traditional and habitual greeting to Caryl is “What’s up motha fucka?”, which I proceed to scream into the phone. After a long pause, I heard a voice say “Um..This is Tina Lesh from Credit Suisse First Boston.” Tina Lesh was my recruiter for a job I had applied for. I had to quickly explain that I did not in fact think that she was a motha fucka. Thankfully she understood and still gave me an offer.

That’s awesome Allison! I had a friend of mine Greg who’s friends sabotaged his PC at home and made his reply email address spank@themonkey.com. Greg didn’t know until the company he had applied for a job for told him that they weren’t able to reach him by email.
He got the job! I hope you do to!
I just had a doozy on my site on a post called 20 Years Ago Today. I flippantly called my first ship, the USS Coontz a ‘heap’.
You’ll read on that Admiral Coontz’s relative didn’t appreciate that very much. Doh!

This happened to me last summer. It’s hard to believe the aftermath, but it is actually true.
Last summer I went on a road trip with my two best friends and two of my guy friends, one of whom I had a crush on. We were in a big van. Two people got to sleep in the two seats up front, while two people got to sleep on the two rows of seats in back. The extra person had to seep on the floor. I was on the floor (it was my turn that night) and my crush, Tom, was lying on the seat above me. I really had to fart. When I did, to my surprise, it was loud and smelled funky. I didn’t think anyone noticed until Tom said “EWW! Caitlin, that’s so disgusting. Ugh!” I was mortified. To add to the horror, he had woken everyone else up and they all were pretty ticked from the smell, which had also made it hard for everyone to fall back to sleep. The next day we were groggy, but my friends laughed it off. But Tom was still mad. He didn’t talk to me the rest of the trip, unless it was to torment me about it. The next year at school, he had told everyone about it and gave me the crude nickname Deadly Asshole. He never talked to me, unless it was to shout from across the hall Deadly Asshole. It’s hard to believe that I was ever friends with him.
