68 Incredibly Funny Instances When Folks Failed So Embarrassingly, All They Could Do Was Laugh

When I first got Facebook - I “searched” for a lad I had a crush on in school. Turns out I didn’t SEARCH his name was my first ever Facebook status for weeks.

A guy in work was well known for being a bit greedy with communal food, so when he took the last cake after already having 2 or 3, I emailed my friend with 'I wanted that cake ' except I didn't email her, I emailed him because his name was in my head when typing.... He instantly read it and turned round to look at me so I just laughed and he laughed too as if it was all a private joke, but to this day I still think about it, a good 15 years on.

My family went out to a giant Fun Center type of place with an arcade, pizza, bowling, ropes course, etc. It was super crowded and we were struggling to find a table. We spotted a family about to leave and asked if we could snag their table while they were packing up. We sort of rushed them out of their spot, so they didn't bother bussing the table which included a half of a pizza. No biggie. While we were sitting there trying to figure out what to do next, and all incredibly hungry, we shamefully decided to finish off their pizza. It looked untouched and the line for food was a mile long...why waste good food? After finishing the pizza, we split up: some to the arcade, some to the food line, etc. My sister stayed at the table to save it and hold my baby. It had been a good fifteen minutes since the previous family left. Well... You guessed it: the dad came back with a pizza box hoping to pack up his leftovers. My sister just shrugged and said "yup...sorry." I vanish every time I think about this and thank God I wasn't the one sitting there. I would have passed away, for sure. @noyesjodi.

I work in a library. A girl tried to hand me 6 dvds over the counter and my computer screen. They all fell into my face as she was awkwardly holding them with one hand. I mumbled something along the lines of ‘maybe it’s better to use both hands next time’ with a wink and she promptly answered me ‘i only have one’.

At an event when I was in high school, I was talking about some guy and it was one of those moments where it got quiet and I was like "he's behind me isn't he?" and he WAS, but then a few hours later I was retelling the story to someone about how that guy was behind me when I was talking about him and as I was telling that story HE WAS RIGHT THERE AGAIN.

Hubby got me a kindle to read all my smutty minotaur books and *ahem* alone time novellas on. I had no idea it uploaded what I read to my goodreads. All our church friends saw everything I read.

I had been seeing a guy for several weeks and although we hadn’t said we were exclusive, he made comments that led me to believe that we were. I later found out that he had been seeing someone else, got her pregnant, and had a quick wedding. I saw him approximately a year later at a bar and felt indignant, walking up to him and wanting him to know that I was fully aware of what he had done, smugly saying, “how is your wife and baby?” His response? “Stillborn.” It’s been over 20 years and I have yet to recover.

When Instagram first started, I thought it was a photo editing app and edited some photos of me in a bra and underwear tryna be cute. I guess when I hit finish on the edits. It was actually posting them. My sister from New York got a message from her male coworker, asking why I was posting lingerie online.

My boss wrote me that she wanted to give me a raise. She wrote how lucky they were to have me. And the email was so incredibly sweet. She ended it with "I know you've been through a lot. I hope you know you're a big part of the family. You're like a daughter to me." A small family run clinic, with me as the only outsider. I was crying because of the sweet email and a tear fell down on my screen. When I tried to wipe it away, I accidentally knocked the phone out of my hand. When I picked it up, the frontglass were completely shattered. Had to answer, so I went to my computer and when I opened up my mail, I saw it was already responded to. Figured that it must've sent some letters or a symbol of sorts, when I tried to remove the single tear. I opened sent emails and to my horror, I saw a GIF had been sent. An indecent GIF. I was absolutely mortified.

I went on a date one time with two completely different boots
The whole date I didn’t notice.. I had been checking which ones to wear when he showed up and forgot to pick one PAIR.

In college, my fiancé and I were long-distance for a few months. She wanted me to send her a text detailing how I’d kiss her. (You see where this is going…) I type out this loooong “spicey” text, and hit *SEND.
A few hours later, I think to myself “man she hasn’t responded. Was it that bad?” So I check my phone and realize I sent it to my DAD! (The days before delete existed). He had a good laugh.

Just today I Accidentally attached a Cardi B music video in the bottom of an email to a client somehow it got pasted after I had sent the link to my friend.

I was showing my husband the fb profile pic of a weird guy I worked with in the past. He never did anything to me but just gave creepy vibes. My husband is not tech savvy so I was holding the phone and showing him, refused to let him hold the phone. He kept telling me he's not an idiot and to just let him have a good look and hold the phone, I told him don't tap anything don't touch the screen. He handed me the phone back, he had somehow tagged my sister in this guys profile pic and shared his pic on my profile. I tried so quickly to rectify things but the guy had already noticed. Wanted to vanish.

Saw that a couple from high school was getting divorced so I went back to their 2010 wedding photos and I shared it… the dude messaged me and was like what the hell is wrong with you.

I was at a bus stop, this cute guy was studying and he said he went to GCU …so trying to be cool I lied and said yea me too. But then he started asking me specific questions that I obviously didn’t know. So when he clocked it, the vibe got super awkward so I left all frazzled and started walking. But all I did was just walk to the next bus stop so when the bus came he was already on it and I had to just disassociate the whole ride home.

While at work I was skype chatting with a female colleague and messaged "my chest has ESP, they can tell when it's going to rain" - a misquote from Mean Girls. Except that I actually sent it to the company director, a man I barely knew. I was absolutely horrified, apologised profusely and assumed I'd be in trouble. As it turned out he just asked me for weather reports every time we spoke after that.

I was in a very crowded pizza place waiting in line to order and there were two lines, one to order and the other for pickup. A man walks in and goes to the pickup line and all I saw was the back of him but I was so certain it was my brother so naturally I went up to him and pushed him from behind. Like I basically decked him from behind. I thought it would be a funny way of surprising him but then he turned around and it was not my brother, it was a stranger. I had to apologize and explain to him that I thought he was my brother. Thankfully he was nice. Mind you this was in front of the entire pizza place and everybody saw it.

I was at my friend's family's big BBQ having a good time () was standing in a hallway with my husband talking to everyone in the living room I snuck out to pee came back to where my husband was and slapped his behind and grabbed it...only to realize my husband had moved and it was my friends uncle I gave a real good slap and grab too..I was horrified but we all had a good laugh about it all night.

I was trying to post an updated photo to my LinkedIn and accidentally selected of a photo of me standing in front of the mirror in my bra and underwear to see if my workouts were making a difference.

I was on vacation one time… Sitting in a luxurious bubble bath. I meant to send a pic of my toes to my family group chat sticking out of the tub with the pretty view but accidentally sent the un cropped version… with my bush.
