25 years ago i thought "rapport" was pronounced in a french-ish "rap-WAH".

i still cringe.

Yes indeed, thank the brain

Part of the reason I could never buy Inside Out. She gets to be, what? 11 years old and her first negative core memory is "moving away"?

No dead grandma? Favorite pet? Lost toy? No horrible embarassment in public? Not even one "Enjoy your meal!" - "Thanks! You too!"

Try this trick to get some ease :-) Can you remember when someone else misspoke something? no! Hence, nobody will remember what you have misspoken.

I remember when this girl farted in front of the whole school during an assembly and had to run out because everyone was laughing so hard, does that count?

Fuckin geez. Poor girl will be having nightmares about it for the rest of her life.

It's bad enough just having a nightmare about it. Imagine waking up, wiping the sweat off your face and realising it actually did happen.

Yes, I do. A lot. Starting from elementary school when a class mate had a really weird pronunciation of Harry Potter.

Some of my embarrassing memories aren't even something I did, but something I cringed hard at when I saw or heard it. Sometimes I am so afraid someone else is going to embarrass themself I have to block my ears so I don't hear it.

That's a nice trick, but what if you actually do remember? Just off the top of my head, I remember a classmate who mispronounced Arkansas, Ark-Kansas for instance.

I also stayed in a "boutique" hotel in Singapore which I think the locals used kind of like a love hotel. I remember the neighbors getting it on at 3am, and the gul talking about the guy's "caulk."

His "caulk," like they were doing some late-night tile-sealing. 🙄

Why is it a happy one, tho?

O yeah, that one time I blanked completely during a presentation. Fun times.
