Cringe!Chickenlady winces, "I told a Hugh Grant/Divine Brown joke to my dad, pretending that Ms Brown was chewing gum so she'd be more American. Instead I just appeared to be still giving the blow-job. Even as I'm writing this I'm cringing inside."
Tell us your cringeworthy stories of embarrassment. Go on, you're amongst friends here...

Earlier this evening...I drove my shiny new company car onto a petrol station forecourt for its first fill up. It was only once I was at the pump that I realised that I hadn't the first clue how to open the filler cap. Cue me wandering aimlessly around the car, peering randomly at the interior to no avail.
This itself was pretty cringeworthy. Matters weren't improved when one of the girls in the station shop (aged about 16) walked out, wordlessly pushed the fillercap making it pop open before walking back into the shop.
Yeah, I felt pretty stupid.

.I sympathise many a time have I forgotten which side my petrol cap's on and had to do a swift reverse.
At least they didn't talk to you over the tannoy though; I was at a station a couple of weeks ago where the cashier was giving some guy step by step instructions over the tannoy on how to fill his car up much to the amusement of the rest of us.

I feel for you, I have in turn...Also have done this when I purchased my last car, but also when i pulled onto the forecourt, I had also driven the wrong side of the pump.
After walking round the car once, I swiftly got back in, drove off to the nearest lay-by, worked it out, and continued on to the next garage..(hail tinted windows!
