Nope, but I am laughing with you about the bra :-)

I hope you realize, if (on the right forum or at the right time in a public place) someone asked "What is the most awesome and memorable thing you ever experienced at work", one of those guys who was there or heard about it would reply "It was the time someone was trying to repair the female boss's vacuum and wound up pulling a sexy pink bra out of the mechanism, in front of everyone who worked for her". The size would undoubtedly be embellished too, whether appropriate or not.

Thank-you for sharing the laugh, Rhizo!

SW is right about the follow up too. :)

I really don't have anything funny to share. My two most embarrassing moments were once when I was a senior in college and once in grad school when I said something dumb. I'd share what, but they're pretty incomprehensible to anyone outside the field. Both professors gave me the same look of disappointed amazement. Made me want to slide under the table both times.

I was an interviewer for a large company and one of the stock questions I had to ask the applicants was,"Are you looking for a full time or a part time position?"

One day we had been very busy and I had interviewed so many people that I got my tongue twisted and asked a very dignified man if he wanted a "Pull time or a FART time position"!

Without missing a beat he replied that the full time position would be better for him, although the fart time job sounded interesting, too.

Plllog, I know that feeling.....we never forget those moments, do we?

SW, you couldn't be more right! Twenty years later, I bumped into my old friend, the vacuum repairman, at a conference. After a big hug, the first thing out of his mouth was, "Lose any underwear lately?"

Pllog, I said something like that in nursing school. The instructor looked at me like I had two heads. I still shake my head about it, but I had just read about it. Unfortunately, I didn't see the big picture and apply that knowledge to that patient.

One of my most embarrassing situations happened the first time I met Dh's brother and his wife. We had gone out for sushi the night before. I must have eaten a bad piece of fish, but was feeling fine until we got to their house. As soon as we walked in, the need for the bathroom was urgent! I spent about an hour in there, and it wasn't pleasant. We then rushed out of there, and I barely made it to the restroom at a gas station. Needless to say, it was a long time until I felt ready to eat raw fish again! That was the first (and only time) I have experienced explosive food poisoning. Sorry if too TMI, but it was about 30 years ago, lol

Explosive diarrhea is a trait in my husband's family. His g. father, father, three of his four sisters, and Robert ALL have it.

It occurs within a few moments of eating, if it's going to happen. Eating out with that family is pretty interesting, that's all I have to say.

At least it was lacy and pink, Rhizo, and not some stretched out old thing. :-)

Some years ago my daughter accompanied me when I was car shopping. After a couple of test drives we stopped at a dealership where a sort-of neighbor (he lived about a half-mile down the road) worked. He showed us an SUV, and my daughter and I got in and drove off.

I started picking the vehicle apart, and when I said, "Well, at least we can use it to try to get a better price on the Toyota," my daughter gave me a rather vicious poke in the leg. I turned to her and discovered the salesman was in the back seat. We'd made the previous test drives by ourselves, and I had no idea he was there. Oops!

Something similar happened to my DH. He was at the gym, taking his clothing out of his bag when a pair of black undies dropped to the floor.

Static cling. I told him, "Good thing they were our daughters, as mine are certainly not as fancy!"

I really cant think of any funny and embarrassing thing I've done but I always think about a friend of mine who was pretty large through the hips.....She had a pair of underware that had seen it's better days....she threw them in the trash.

The next morning when she got up and dressed for work...she walked outside...the wind was blowing.

The squirrels had dragged her underware to the top of a large tree where they were flying like a flag.....holes and all....way to high to get them down.

All of her neighbors enjoyed them flying overhead...to her embarrassment for quite a long time....

I caught my husband heading out the door to go fishing. I should have let him go, but I liked that particular pair of my panties that was stuck to the Velcro on his fishing shirt. Goofball.

Pattico, that is so funny. I can just imagine the comments from the neighbors. And Flamey, your picture is hysterical!

That reminds me of a very old post, perhaps in the Garden Party. The writer confessed to wearing a pair of her pregnancy underwear under her skirt and figured that she would be fine.

She was crossing the road when she felt them losing their grip and before she could clutch at them through her skirt, they dropped to the ground.

She just kept on walking like nothing happened, all the way to her car.

We rented a boat with captain down in Galveston a couple of summers ago. It sounded like a great idea. We had to get up early. It was hot and all I had to eat was Doritos, Gatorade and water. I've been in moving boats on fresh water before, but these were the biggest waves in a boat I'd ever encountered. I got seasick in the bay. I threw up over the edge in front of another boat full of guys on a bachelor party outing. I also peed my pants. I had to wear them until we got back to the dock a few hours later. I was so embarrassed. My husband said I was chumming the water. Everyone got to see it. Fortunately, there was a restroom at the dock that had a shower. I washed my pants out as best I could and dried them with a hand dryer. I took a quick shower.

On the bright side fishing was good. Everyone, but me, caught something good. DH says I'm staying home next time.

Okay, Rhizo, that brought a funny one to mind! It's just not so embarrassing because there were no witnesses. I was wearing string bikini style panties at work (storefront), when the string broke! (I determined it was a manufacturing flaw.) I was wearing a skirt. Luckliy, no one was there when they fell down! Including any co-workers. All alone, far from home, no dance bag in my car, no spare panties in my desk... And while bare legged was the style, selling expensive items to discerning clients was not something I wished to undertake "commando". The damaged part was unpinnable. I had a few minutes of freak out and desperate ideas about how to resolve it, including calling my mommy, before I realized that there was a sewing machine in the back. I was able to darn them and resume my dignity before anyone came in.

My 'moment' taught me not to assume things.

I was a 'regular[ at a nearby grocery and had a nodding acquaintance with the checkers. I had not been in the store for several weeks, and when I was checking out I asked 'my' checker when she was due. (Yeah, you got it. She wasn't expecting.) DUMB! DUMB! DUMB!

Mine is more of a near miss. This fall at my men's volleyball match, about two points into the game, after I had made a pretty good hit, the ref whistled the play dead. On the floor behind me was a loose sock that I immediately recognized as my wife's. It had clung via static to my t-shirt and fell off when I jumped. It just as easily could have been a pair of underwear.

Another time a friend from college told how he was helping a friend of his move to a new apartment because that guy was recently engaged and was moving in with his fiancee. As they started to move the sofa-bed, and realized how heavy it was the decided to open it up and remove the mattress to make it a little lighter. As they removed the mattress, a bra fell out. My friend said based on its size, it was definitely not one that belonged to the fiancee.

I'm pretty thick skinned so I don't embarrass easily but I do have 2 funny lingerie stories.

One evening back in the early 90's I was at a diner just hanging out and visiting with the guys. Now I am just one of the guys here and do what I can not to give them any ideas otherwise.

I had an older car at the time that was always having electrical problems. When I went to leave something or other , maybe the lights, wouldn't work. One of the guys offers to take a look. He slides into the front seat and opens the glove box. Reaches in and pulls out a sexy red and black teddy. He looks at me and I blurt out "that's not mine, my daughter left it there". Then he reaches in and pulls out a pair of handcuffs. "Now those are mine" I tell him. (DD was doing Rocky Horror at the time and one of her friends loaned her the teddy so she could find something like it for a costume)

The other one was when DD was going back to college after vacation. We had these big Rubbermaid bins filled with her stuff. It was really windy that night when we got to the school and the lids were flipping up as she and I carried them in. I just got home when she calls and tells me she'd left her student ID/ meal card here. It was like 2 in the morning so I woke her brother and asked him to ride back to San Francisco with me because I was already tired. When we got to the dorm we see underwear scattered and blowing about. It's caught on shrubbery etc. We recognize it as DD's. Apparently it blew out of the bin earlier when the lid popped off and we hadn't noticed in our rush to get inside. So there we are, DS and I, picking up underwear like we're on some kind of weird Easter egg hunt at 3 am outside the girls dorm. Nobody said a word as they walked by.

Can't think of an embarrassing experience at the moment ... but then, my memory's not so hot: missed an engagement with church group on holiday Monday - forgot.

Hi Pllog ... I'll bet you "darned" that bikini's string in more ways than one!

ole joyful

I am enjoying this "underwear" thread! My story is about my husband. I had a girl scout troop and we did a camping trip. The weather was chilly in the mountains at night so we told all the girls to bring real sleeping bags, not slumber bags so they would stay warm. Of course there were a couple who only brought the slumber bags. Luckily, DH and another dad that went went us anticipated that and brought extra bags. Problem solved.

A few weeks later DH went camping. That first night as he slipped into his sleeping bag something stuck him in the leg. He investigated and found a brush roller in it. He decided to search the bag to be sure it was the only one and out came a pair of little girl's panties! He said he was glad he was by himself and didn't have to try to explain that one! Fortunately we knew who the things belonged to and gave them back.

I also have a pantie story. On a first date with a man I was sincerely interested in. We went to dinner; I went to the ladies room and came back through the restaurant trailing tissue paper behind me from under my skirt. No second date.

I have so many....

This is copy & pasted from our webpage. I posted it many moons ago.

The Lawman reminded me of the time I went into a restroom at a "Very Swank" Hotel Ballroom, that had these new toilets that go off on their own. I had a Rhumba costume on, short dress with a full-length ruffled tail, well when I stood up I swung the tail around. The force of suction took hold of it and sucked it down, of course I'm attached!! I'm in a very awkward position, cannot free the dress, nor can I get both feet on the ground to maybe balance myself and come up with a strategy. I am in tears after awhile, and scanning for cameras too. Don't really know how long it took for someone to find me, seemed like hours, and then they had to break the door in! Only to find Miss Rhumba with her butt underwater, dress down the drain and both legs in the air! I was really thankful that my portions of all the dance competitions was over! He's LHBO as he leaves to go bowl!!!

AAA, I remember seeing that story linked on another forum, so funny still!

These underwear stories have me in tears I'm laughing so hard!

I can add one, but not my 'story'....

Years ago I worked at an appliance store and we had just sold a Maytag pair to a long time customer. She had only had them a couple of days when she called the delivery man at home on a weekend in a fit of frustration (he lived in the neighborhood) and said the washer was falling apart, she'd found loose metal in the tub. He dutifully trotted down to her house to try to keep the peace even though delivering and installing, not service, was his job....

He did find a loose piece of u-shaped flat metal in the washing machine that he identified as the underwire to one of her bras, washer was intact.

We used to host a poker game in our home every Friday night. One particular poker night fell on Valentines Day. Earlier in the day I had went to Victoria's Secret to purchase some new panties and things for Valentine's Day to surprise my hubby after everyone left.

When I got home I threw the bag on my bed because we had 10 guys coming over for the game and I needed to get snacks and drinks ready. Forgot about the panty purchase until I hear this big laugh and everyone has turned around and is pointing and laughing at my beautiful greyhound Mack who had apparently stuck his head in my bag to see what I had bought and had this lacy red pair of panties stuck on his head. He was walking around so proudly too lol! All I could think to say was hey atleast they are new!
