One lunchtime at the pub....
Don't even remember what it was about now, but myself and rest of our small section of the IT dept were all hanging round the pool table at our local and talking about something or other while playing a game.

I was disagreeing with a guy senior to me about something and neither of us were refusing to back down when he said something along the lines of "I know I'm right on this because I went to Public school"
Quick as a flash (i.e. before I'd really had time to think about it)
I heard the following words fly out of my mouth:
"Yeah, where you learnt to take it up the arse and keep quiet."

This was then followed by a few seconds of silence as what I'd said sunk in following by sniggering from the rest of the team.
I then took my shot on the pool table, constantly thinking "Did I just say that?".
I still wonder how those words came out when I'm sure I meant to say something along the lines of "What's wrong with the school I went to?" or something a little less inflammatory/insulting...
If you're reading this Stu, sorry, must've been my time of the month or summat...
I don't even drink when I'm at work either so it wasn't even booze related...
Hey ho, eh?
