<p>when I found out my SAT score in history class last year</p>
<p>In 8th grade I was in Chemistry class. We were smelling all these different chemicals and then we were going to use PH paper and litmus paper and all that stuff to find out how acidic or basic the susbstance was. I've heard of ammonia before, but of course, I wasn't told about how strong the smell was. I picked up a flaskful of it and I completely forgot how you were supposed to "wave" the smell to your nose. As you can probably guess, I made a dumb*** move and put the flask of ammonia to my nose. The smell struck me like a wrecking ball and I tripped backwards on my chair and I spilled ammonia all over myself and when my lab partner turned around he slipped on it.</p>
<p>lol at Bothwings...
I've got a good one from my most recent Chem class [sophomore year]
We were using those things.. idk what they're called, they drip a liquid more or less depending on how tight this little knob is turned, they're like a HUGE long eyedropper kind of. Can't remember the name, but you know what I mean. lol. Anyway, apparently one of them had hydrochloric acid in it. My teacher led us to believe that.. it was .. water. and I believed it. lol. And everyone else did too, for the moment. Then the teacher walks off and tells us to do our labs, so la la la not doing the lab, eventually I end up being like "so what's in that drippy thing anyway?"- nobody knows. So. Being as bright as I am, I decide to.. ehh.. taste it. I stuck my tongue right on the end of it where it's dripping out and I SWEAR that thing burned a hole in my tongue.
Embarrassing...
lol
People will never let me live that down.
Needless to say, we then knew that it was hydrochloric acid, not water.</p>
<p>^ sounds like a burette</p>
<p>Isn't one of the, like, first (!) rules of chemistry class not to allow any contact between yourself and whatever substances you're using? You should've tried dripping a bit into your eye, too, just to be doubly sure that it wasn't water ;P (I hear that's how all the real chemists do it, too!)</p>
<p>And what kind of teacher tells the class an HCL solution is water, lol?</p>
<p>In 10th grade I threw up during my Social Studies class. I asked the teacher if I could go to the nurse at the beginning of class, but he said that I could go after he got class started.
About 3 minutes into class I stood up and walked to the front of the room.. and then it happened, in front of everyone. Then, it happened again when I was opening the door, and it got all over the knob and window. Then when I got into the hall, I managed to throw up one last time onto the hallway floor. Everyone turned away, and I was absolutely humiliated.
About 20 minutes later I had to come back to the class WITH my mom to get my books(having your mom come into your class is bad enough) , and when I walked in, it still hadn't been cleaned up and all my classmates had their shirts pulled up over their noses. This happened in September, and I could still smell it until February.
It was terrible. Going back to that class the next day was the most nerve wrecking thing ever.
I think everyone forgot though, thank god.</p>
<p>Oh man I completely forgot the time I passed out from drugs (seriously).
It was in 10th grade and I woke up feeling sick. I wanted to go to school because we were having the senator come to talk to us for history class and I was really excited for it. Well I couldn't stomach breakfast, but I went to school anyway. My best friend had some tequila with her for another friend's birthday so I took a small shot but stopped because of my headache. I felt even worse during my 1st period so I took two advils-straight, with no water. About 10 minutes later, I still felt really bad so I took another. By this point I was so dizzy and sick I couldn't think straight. All I was thinking to myself was "ugh I'm sick I think I'll take an advil" so, like an idiot (hey I couldn't think straight) I took another one. In the course of about 25 minutes I had taken 4 advils with no water and no food in my stomach since the night before, just alcohol. At this point my vision was fading fast and I told the teacher i needed to go to the health room. I don't even remember him writing the pass, I just sort of stumbled out the door. The entire room was black, and I could only see the door because it was a bright white rectangle far away. Well, I made it outside and couldn't see a thing, never mind stand up straight. I pretty much crawled to the stairway and laid down right on the dirty concrete until I could see a bit better. I made it completely down the stairs (absolutely hanging on the railing) before I completely collapsed at the bottom and pretty much fell asleep all twisted on the ground.
A random teacher was walking by and shook me awake. She asked me what I was doing and I remember replying clearly "I'm waiting for my friend. We're gonna go food shopping". She was like "you're waiting on the ground?" and I told her I fell asleep waiting. She said "uh huh. Well I'm gonna go get security and you can wait in the office instead of in the dirt at the bottom of the stairs". So she did and security helped me stand up and get in the golf cart. He drove about a yard before I fell and sorta slumped out of the cart. He had to hold me by the arm so I wouldn't fall out as he took me to the health room.
Well we arrived at the health room and the security guy and the nurse propped me up and guided me to the bed. Of course, who did we walk past but the senator. He said something like "whoa, is she okay?". I made it to the room and managed to make it to the toilet before puking. Haha then I laid down on the floor of the bathroom and the nurse had to come in and help me up. I ended up sleeping in there for the rest of the day. Everyone at the office probably thinks I'm some crazy druggie person now.</p>
<p>I got invited over to my friends house for dinner once. We were all finished, and I needed to go to the bathroom urgently. Of course, there was someone in there already and so I decided to go downstairs to the basement bathroom since "it" was literally halfway out and I couldn't hold it any longer. So I ran and immediately sat down on the toilet and took care of business. I wipe all the excess off and try to flush the toilet. The silver flushing thingy goes cling cling and the toilet does not flush!!! I was like OH EM GEE. I gave it a couple more tries but everytime I pressed that silver flushing thing the water only rose in the toilet. I waited about 5 minutes and pushed it one last time. It started overflowing and soon enough the bathroom floor was flooded with toilet water+poop particles+pee..........................I didn't know what to do so I just covered the toilet up and ran out. My friend's dad comes up to me and asks, Is everything okay? I answer, um.. yeah? He walks into the bathroom after me and immediately yells his wife's name. My friend goes, HOLY **** how much did you crap!?!?!??!</p>
<p>I told my host mom in Honduras I was writing in my diarrhea instead of my diary. (Diarea vs. Diario). Ack.</p>
<p>Bahhah these stories are hilarious.... :]</p>

YES a burette!
And that kind of teacher would be... my chem teacher, who also didn't teach us that it was called a burette. Haha. well she fooled me, and I ended up licking hydrochloric acid, partly because she's a moron, and partly because I'm a moron... lol.
I thought about putting it in my eye as well, but I wear contacts so I figured it wouldn't be as effective [painful]. Lol.</p>
<p>I like reading the embarrassing moments. Maybe I'm the guy who take delight in other people's embarrassing moments.</p>

<p>Haha, in my sophomore year of HS, I worked with one of our sports teams. The other girl that I worked with suggested that I make cards for some of the guys who made it to states (I know, WTH??!?! cards? but that's what she said). Anyway, one of the guys who she said I should do this for was her own brother! So I was like, okay, whatever. </p>
<p>I made the first one and I gave it to him. Uh, wrong guy (I was totally out of it that morning)! Then one of his ***hole friends was like "ooh, [me] likes [him]!" as loud as he could where we were standing, in front of everyone. </p>
<p>--and for the record, I honestly thought the guy was ugly. He was a blonde. I'm not even attracted to white guys. But anyway...--</p>
<p>Yeah, that was the worst thing ever. I think his sis was out to ambush me or something haha. </p>
<p>Last year, the kid who made the comment brought up again. I tried to explain the whole thing, but I think he thought I was lying anyway. LOL.</p>
<p>I don`t know if i have ever had an embarassing moment.Maybe when i was in a night club until 5.00 and i didnt get back home.Eventually i to school at 8.30 without even sleeping during the night and having drunk 4 beers.The embarassing moment was when my biology teacher asked me to explain her sth about the development of the embyonic cell and i didnt even know what the hell is this ;]haha</p>
<p>^^^^lol at least u didnt go to school extremely blazed and sleepy</p>
<p>I don't know if this counts, but I keep getting up in the morning of Saturdays and holidays and start to rush around thinking I'll be late to school.</p>

Lol...I've done that...in a real lab, too, where there were a bunch of crazy chemicals with 100-character long names that have to be disposed of in special airtight disposal cans that have "toxic waste" and crossbones printed across. So I was supposed to do something with a can of NaCl solution but being a stupid idiot, I forgot to label the jar of NaCl so instead of NaCl I could have possibly taken a can of...anything else in the lab. So not wanting to get in more trouble for having messed up every experiment I've tried so far, I decided that I could easily see if the solution was NaCl by tasting it...if it was salty, then it was NaCl, and if it wasn't...then it wasn't NaCl. So I did, and luckily it was NaCl solution =)</p>
<p>I've also stuck my nose in an agarose gel solution and was not able to breathe properly for about 3 hours</p>
<p>Why aren’t the recent versions of this thread as lulzy?</p>
<p>i fell asleep during a history video.
which isn’t that bad at all.
except that the guy that i had a crush on for years snapped a photo of it& laughed
about it for months.</p>
<p>i guess this is more sad than embarassing.
ah well. moving on.</p>
<p>A few years ago, I got stuck on the baby swing at the park (you know those buckle up things? well I did them and then I didn’t know how to un-buckle, since my fingers were all slippery!). Had to ring my mom to come help.
If I go back to further into my childhood then there’s another story… after not rollerblading for a long time I went to the part with family and family friends, I tripped over down a skateboarding bowl thing and my khaki type pants ripped at the back so you could see my underwear. Mom forced me to stay and have a MEAL at the park, the worst thing was for half an hour I didn’t even realise :(</p>
