Wore my pants backwards during the 90s when kriss kross was popular, so glad we didn't have social media back then. u/Rocjames77

When I was 8 my sister had her friends over, all teenagers, and trying to be cool I jumped on the trampoline in front of them and told them I’d do a backflip. I’d never done a backflip so I landed on my neck, bounced off the trampoline and broke my wrist. u/Artemis64z

In junior high I wore a hoodie all year because I thought it would make me look gangsta. This included those balmy 90+ degree Texas days. u/Old_Army90

Went to a party and chugged 6 Mike's Hard Lemonades and then threw up for several hours. Nobody else at the party was even a little drunk. u/AdamBombKelley

Got pulled over for playing my car stereo too loud. Took the ticket, turned it back up. Took another ticket, turned it back up. Took a third ticket, turned it back up. Spent the night in jail. u/[deleted]

Tanning booths. Had a lady friend that was into those. I only did it like 5 times. I was so dark, the grey hair on my chest were literally glowing. u/mrxexon

I had my mullet cut off but left a rat tail, then had it braided. u/TrailerParkPrepper

Tried to strike a Zippo lighter on my “stubble”. I was about fifteen; it was fluffy hair. Ripped a zit out of my face. Looked like I’d been shot. Still have an odd clump of scar tissue in my cheek. u/goodassjournalist

Spilled my drink to hide that I peed my pants. Was too cool to say I needed a bathroom. u/SnicketyLemon875

Not stupid just mean and regret it. Some of the popular kids were being my friend, or just pretending to be I don't know. I stole one of the nice teachers candy bars out of her cupboard. I didn't get caught, so I saw her take out the empty box, and look around the room disappointed. Felt like garbage. u/HooterEnthusiast

When I was in 3rd grade, I climbed a tree to get a friend's kite down. I had a crush on her. When I was up pretty high, a branch broke, I fell and broke my arm. I went home acting like everything was cool and cried like a wuss as soon as I got home. u/srk9870

Tried shotgunning a beer in front of my crush. I sneezed midway through and the beer came out my nose. Hurt really bad. u/Red_Christmas_Lights

I crashed my father’s BMW in front of my friends on the first day that I got my driving license. u/-ROADRUNN3R-

2010. Cringe central. I started rapping at a party. u/idontkillbees

Jumped off a 76' cliff to impress a girl. It worked but was wildly stupid. u/raym0ndv2

When I was about 19 I was in a club with some friends. As we were walking away from the bar, I noticed some girls sitting at a booth. I was having a good time, and wanted to look cool, so I sorted of pointed at them (yeah, sort of full arm stretched, pointing at them) as we walked past them. I suppose I thought I looked like John Travolta or something. Anyway, it became rapidly less cool when I walked directly into a wall because I wasn't looking where I was going. u/dunderproto

In second grade I forced my mom to sign "Nolan Ryan" on my ball and took it to school to tell everyone I caught it at a game. It didn't take long for it to be pointed out that what I had brought was in fact a softball, not a baseball. u/wandering_nobody

Rubbed poison ivy all over my face. Last day of school in 7th grade and since I’d never gotten poison ivy before I was convinced that meant it didn’t affect me. So I started bragging really loudly to everyone around me that poison ivy doesn’t affect me and nobody believed me so I grabbed a bunch and rubbed it all over my face. Spoiler alert: it definitely does affect me. That was a rough start to summer vacation u/thumbingitup

Did the worm in front of a crush in elementary school one time. No music or anything, I just got on the floor and did the worm. That one is a mainstay in my nighttime embarrassing memory replay. u/SithSkater03
