The Most Embarrassing Story Ever Told

After a conversation with Kris, she brought it to my attention that the easiest way to gauge the number of "true-friends" you have is by asking yourself if you can share with them the MOST embarrassing story about yourself. That doesn't mean you have to tell them, you just have to be willing to. And as much as we all try to be politically correct, we all like to laugh at someone else's expense from time to time. It's why we like watching "Jackass". Since I make fun of people on this blog day in and day out, I've decided to share with you faithful readers my MOST embarrassing story. Think of it as you getting a hearty chuckle and I pick up the tab. I'm not sure I've ever shared this with ANYONE (other than my mom, but she was there when it happened, so that can't count can it?), so be grateful niggas!

It was my sophomore year of high school. I was the coolest cat in the school. I was cooler than "The Fonz" standing on a snowcone in Nova Scotia. Ok actually I was a scrawny slightly noticeable awkwardly funny kid that thought he had more friends than he actually did. It was one of the rare days in my entire public school career that my mom dropped me off at the school. (She usually worked a few blocks away and we would walk from her job every morning.) Well, she was dropping me off this day because I had been sick the day prior and my body was threatening to keep me home again. Since I actually enjoyed school, I made the decision to go at the very last minute. Anyone that has ever had a severe cold or flu like symptoms knows how physically draining this ailment can be. Especially the day after the worst of it. You struggle to do simple things like stand up straight, or hold a conversation at anything louder than a whisper for an extended period of time. Because your body is so weak, periodically you unexpectedly lose muscle control.

I got out the car and as I stood my head immediately began to spin. I stood still. Once I regained my composure, I climbed the first stair. My leg buckled, my stomach churned, and the lightheadedness was back. Was I being too ambitious? Was I really ready to sit at school for the greater portion of my day? Just as I was weighing the options of going back home or staying at school, my sphincter ani externus (that's your puckering booty muscle) yelled out, "I don't care what the rest of you do, but I'm going home!!!" I mustered up the little contraction energy I had left to attempt stop the now inevitable, but it was too late. I now had a full blown, severe, and potentially fatal (to my reputation) case of "mudbutt".

**sidenote: Why is it when you have "accidents" it's never solid? It always looks like some warm University of Texas colored pudding. end sidenote**

I stood on the stairs with my legs more than shoulder length apart with caramel tapioca oozing down my leg trying to figure out how I'm going to keep this mess from getting on my shoes. My high school career was doomed. "JEREMY….. JEREMY" I heard. "Oh no I've been spotted, there's no turning back now." "JEREMY…. what's wrong? Why are just standing there like that?" It was at that moment I realized it was my mom's voice. She hadn't left. With a look of embarrassment tattooed on my face, I didn't have to utter a word. She already knew. As I waddled down the stairs with that, "pants-around-the-ankle" walk that people do around the house when they realize there is no toilet paper and they have to embark on the journey to find some, she smiled and laughed. As I crawled in the backseat, she told me "stay on and your hands and knees, I don't want you messing up my seats. I don't care how sick you are, you'd be cleaning it up". She tried to make me feel better by telling me stories about close calls she had experienced. I promptly told her it wasn't helping and I never wanted to speak of it again. We both laughed, well mine was more of an embarrassed snicker. She obliged and said "just, roll down your window, YOU STINK!!!".

PEACE
ONE GOD ONE LOVE

OMG I thought I was gonna pee my pants from laughing so hard!!! I had to hurry up and close the site cuz everyone at work wanted to know what I was laughing at! But for your sake I’m glad none of your friends witnessed that debacle. You probably would have had to change schools or blackmail all your friends to not tell!

wow that was good and a very well written blog to boot... Same happened to me minus the school but add a church where the bathrooms were at the front past the altar, choir stand, and my mother on the piano.... and you are so right about that "Not being a solid thing" mine wasn't pudding but more or less like a harty tex-mex prize worthy chilli sooo runny and at the same time riddled with miscellaneous chunks of what felt like shatterd glass...

Woooooowwwwww! That has to be the bravest thing we have ever read. We hope you don't mind that we are adding you to our blogroll (with a link to this story:-). Everyone should know someone brave enough to share that story with the world. Thank you for sharing.

@ dee, yeah it's not really a feeling I would wish on too many people.

@ summer g, I would love to hear it. Once you figure it out, give me a holler!

@ linz, lol. Thanks. It really was a bonding story. Just a crappy one. PUN most definitely intended.

@ erynmyisha, glad it made your week! I see you keep coming back just to laugh again. And of course this is going on the BEST of. I figured people would get a kick out of this one.

@ shivey, true, true indeed. I may have to still use the blackmail tactics in case I run for office or anything later in life. I've supplied my potential enemies with a lot of ammunition about me on this site.

@ diva, thanks. I appreciate that.

@ anonymous (VJ), wow, I've never made someone laugh so hard they had to get up and walk away via text before. Or at least not to my knowledge. It's great to know I possess that power if I ever need to use it in later life.

@ goodeness, glad you feel closer. We can't let $#!+ like this come between us. *another pun

@ kryssy, lol. GREAT!!!

@ anonymous (Boo), lol. Glad you liked it.

@ sir…….., shattered glass!!! "mine wasn't pudding but more or less like a harty tex-mex prize worthy chilli sooo runny and at the same time riddled with miscellaneous chunks of what felt like shatterd glass..." now THAT was funny!

@ mrs. holland, wow, I'm honored you would grace my blog with your presence.

@ anonymous, really? I still am…. kinda…. who is this apparently you and I went to school together?

@ bloggersdelight, lol. Thanks. I would appreciate that.

jali said...

Great post again!

Damn Jeremy! You made me remember something I've tried to block out.

I had a moment like that too - as an ADULT. I've learned that late night gin and early morning work don't go together.

No one found out, but I was very late for work that day.

Miss Anthrope said...

OMG, that is so freaking hilarious!! I kept laughing whilst people walking past my cube gave me indiscreet looks... you poor thing! Well, at least it was just your mom that saw you like that and not someone you liked... now THAT would've been embarassing.

Dani said...

OH MY GOD i am DYING!!
LMAOOOOOOO!!

LAJCain said...

LOL @ University of Texas colors!

Every person in this world has had a shitty day. I'm laughing with you, not at you. lol The good thing was...your mother hadn't left yet!! Imagine having to go all the way to the office, just to call home. She saved you!!

J, I now feel that our relationship has been solidified by a new depth. =)

shelia said...

I think I know you better than I know my neighbor...Look on the brightside, your nickname could be Boo Boo...there's always a silver lining :)

ListenToLeon.net said...

Just be glad that your mother was the only witness, and none of your friends saw it! You'd still be hearing jokes TO THIS DAY! LOL

Diva527 said...

Oh shit! this is HILAREEEEOUS!!!

MzJns said...

OMG! I had to get up and go blow my nose during the side note because I started to tear up when you mentioned how weak you were getting!...The Details dammit you felt like you witnessed it! I laughed so hard that my daughter woke up and thought that I was crying and started to cry herself...I was just too weak to tell her otherwise, and as she stroked my head to tel me that it was okay (and I still wasn't done with the story) I caught a butt cramp in my left cheek and fell out of the chair...now my child is horrified and I can't stop laughing...I gather myslef to finally tell her...(this is a horrible way to wake up...thinking your mother is devastated at three years old)..and I begin to choke when your mom told you to role down the window!....I thought another blog was the funniest like when you made karate a verb...but DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
