NeverLiveItDown

This Troper attended a party with her parents where there was copious amounts of wine. She ended up in a conversation with, of all people to tell this story, her old elementary school librarian. Her nickname through high school was "The Green Hornet". She got this nickname because she and her boyfriend (now husband, amazingly enough) were parking in his Green Hornet car during a school dance and in the midst of their naked fun time, one of them bumped the parking brake out of place. The car rolled down the hill and crashed into the ditch, flipping onto its side. The police and fire truck were called, and they were both pulled out of the car naked with half the high school watching from the top of the hill. She is now fifty, and has yet to live it down.

This troper's boyfriend was in Game's Workshop and he forgot the name of the hobbit "Sam" from Lord of the Rings. He thought and thought, and then he said, "Fram." The manager there said, "Yeah he's probably not remembered cause he collected the hobbit's oil." The troper was there laughing at him.
#89993
Ah FRAM.. the hobbit that was an oil collector.
#89994
This troper's ex-boyfriend was playing World of Warcraft with her and typed in on screen, "Which way is wet?" In response she typed back to him, "South." Realizing what he typed... he corrected himself and said... "I meant WEST."
#89996
Everyone knows you want her even on World of Warcraft.
#89997
This Troper, as a Freshman, has had his share of this. First day of Theater: said a rather insipid comment out of turn. After that, most of my conversations go like this: "Hey, I see you're reading Tsubasa. There's this
other manga I read--" "Shut up, nobody cares" Eventually led to 2 confrontations with two of my biggest antagonists
#89998
First one had a variation on the above text, with something actually related to the play. Ended in "Shut your Whore Mouth Bitch!" and then a
Batting to the knee. I actually managed to squeeze out a "Bonk!"
#90002
This Troper is now known as the annoying/violent one that played Iago rather enthusiastically, so watch your ass.
#90003
This troper knew of a boy who wouldn't lend a pound (sterling) to another, and ended up being called "Jew" for years (in a part of the world where there are no Jews, so anti-Semitism can be a laughing matter).
#90011
Once this troper did a kind of stupid laugh when laughing at a stupid comment a woman made on tv and my stupid brother wouldn't stop mocking me with it for several months, and this one is actually kind of funny when we watched The Animal for the first time our at the part where Marvin's fat friend looked towards his African American friend while saying "I'm hungry!" and the next scene made it look like he had eaten him and my mom shouted "Oh my God he ate the black guy!" and we still bring it up occasionally.
#90012
"Alethia's just taking cards!" is still a catch phrase at the game nights I attend. Based on a time we were playing SettlersOfCatan (back when I was just getting used to the game) and for some reason I was using a port to trade a whole bunch of cards while not on my turn. Nobody noticed at first, and then attention was called as I was in the process of stocking my hand full of cards I'd (fairly, if we don't count that I'm not supposed to do that except on my turn) traded for. It certainly looked like I was just availing myself of a distraction to grab a bunch of cards.
#90013
Another one for our game nights: I had just gotten done babysitting some wound-up relatives, and needed a chance to relax. Got to my friend's house, ended up doing whatever we were doing that night, and at some point got really snippy toward one of my friends. He called me on it, I apologized, and related that I'd been stressed out due to babysitting. Then I added that I really do like kids, but - meaning to indicate that I needed a break now and then - "I like them in pieces."
#90014
Didn't help when I tried to clarify with "I mean, in sections."
#90015
I swear, those guys were about to ''die'' with laughter.
#90016
During
this troper's sophomore year in high school, he dislocated his knee during a rehearsal.
Word Of Director says that he will never stop being the backbone of the safety lecture.
#90017
Happens so much with this troper and her friends. She will not stop making fun of her friend Starry for a certain comment about Fai from Tsubasa, and Starry's constantly teased by "Starry x Fai Shippers". She's not going to say what the comment was for Starry's sake. This troper also makes fun of her sister for her obsession with Syaoran, a character from the same manga series.
#90018
This troper did tech crew for a high school production of LittleShopOfHorrors. The guy who played Seymour, who had played the lead or a major supporting part in every school production since grade eight, who had an impressive vocal range for an eighteen-year-old and was an excellent actor, will forever be remembered by everyone involved in that production for accidentally dropping about ten minutes' worth of lines, thereby screwing up several lighting cues and a costume change, on the second night after opening. Equally, the story told about the backstage manager is not that he managed to prevent this being a major catastrophe, which he did, but that he dropped his pants after the performance was over without realising that he was visible to a handful of lingering audience members.
#90019
AllanAokage has this happen to him frequently. It seems that the only way to I can live something down it when something else happens to re-invoke the trope. It's getting better, though.
#90020
This troper once declared that she could invent a new letter off the top of her head. Her father dared her to do it. She answered "L". Boy howdy, she is never gonna live that down. At least she has something to get back at him with; he once called NYC "Le Grand Pomme De Terre".
#90021
Hoo boy,
I have a lot of these moments. One of my favorites was during a college course entitled "Violence in American History", I referred to the drinking, prostitution, gambling and associated violence of Old West boom towns as "Alcohol, hookers, n' stuff", a girl immediately leapt upon my unique word choice. From that day forward, the relevant term for any sort of sexual behavior in class was "hookers n' stuff". What class of women is oftentimes the victim of serial killers? Hookers n' stuff. Aside from alcohol, where did the mob get a lot of money? Hookers n' stuff. Hell, this actually carried over to the next semester, where the same girl used the old term to refer to what New York Governor Eliot Spitzer did wrong.
#90022
When
I was four, I made the following joke: "'Why did the hamburger wear a sweater?' '' 'Because it was cold!'"'' To this day, my brothers mock me about it.
#90023
That is an anti-joke.
#90024
My older siblings constantly mock me for all the words I've mispronounced. The fact we're all over the age of 18 doesn't help.
#90025
And my parents seem to think that the fact that I pronounced New York as New Nork when I was a toddler is still hilarious and I'm college aged. Though to be fair I do still laugh at my brother for saying things like "It's micy and snow-wiped outside."
#90026
A friend messed up on a singing solo during an elementary school recital. We didn't stop teasing her till jr. high graduation.
#90027
Stupid hypocritical asshole ThisTroper knows
threatens her with death, which he has a habit of doing pretty much all the time at the time (including his away message then, which goes something like "away howling at the moon, disturb me and you will no longer exist"). She threatens him back as what she'd do if he attempted to kill her. Guess what his main accusation against her is?
#90028
My sister was part of a {{Improv}} comedy troupe in college that basically aped ''WhoseLineIsItAnyway''. During a "Party Quirks" game, she was acting as the host and found herself stumped by one guest who was playing the Marshmellow Man from ''{{Ghostbusters}}''. Only problem? She hadn't ''seen'' Ghostbusters, and was completely clueless even as his hints got more overt ("I just don't know how I stay puffed, man!") When they finally gave up and flat out ''told'' her, she protested that she hadn't seen the movie, prompting a bad reaction from the crowd -- and her protests that it wasn't her fault, because quote "My folks didn't raise me right!" Because they hadn't shown her Ghostbusters. Did I mention our parents were in the audience that night? Afterwards, they went out and bought her a copy of the movie, and ''still'' tease her about it constantly.
#90029
When I was younger, I used to play rough on the swingset; I'd swing as hard as I could, then jump off at the highest point and see how far I went before landing. My parents weren't aware of this hobby until they took us to a public playground while shopping for a new home. When it was time to go, my seven-year-old self happened to be on the swings, and decided to show off... One
epic faceplant later, Mom was torn between being paralyzed with utter horror and the fact she couldn't ''breathe'' from laughing so hard. That was the last time I tried that trick, yet mom constantly brought it up, and still does occassionally.
#90030
I performed
rather miserably during my second semester of high school Chemistry, and my parents STILL make occasional chemistry-related jokes at my expense. Like this recent gem: #QUOTE#'''Me:''' Remember when I got third place in Microbiology at the science fair in sixth grade? #QUOTE#'''Dad:''' Yeah.
We all thought you were going to be a great chemist. #QUOTE#'''Me:''' *DeathGlare*
#90031
One time
I went with my friends to Mcdonalds. I had just eaten a lot of food, and was feeling extremely lazy, so I kindly asked a man if he could please throw out my garbage. Unfortunately, that man was black, and he took at as a racist comment and yelled at me a bunch. Now I'm known as a racist. :-(
#90032
This Troper has a very low tolerance for people intentionally doing stupid things and at one point got so frustrated with one of my friends during a high school assembly that I shouted out, much louder than I intended to, "WHY!? WHY SHOULD YOU NOT DO IT!? BECAUSE IT'S A DAMN STUPID SILLY THING!" So now whenever anyone sophmore grade or up at my high school objects to something that has become the joking phrase to use. Made all the more embarrassing by the fact that this troper is normally rather meek and shy.
#90033
One of the two dogs that this troper's parents own is a victim of this. Seriously. The two are as DifferentAsNightAndDay; one is skittish and meek while the other is physically an adult dog but mentally still a puppy. My parents have a tendency to feed both of them scraps while eating meals; the younger one gobbles everything down, while the meeker one takes things "very daintily, like a lady", as Mom puts it. However, one day they apparently got fried chicken, and when Dad looked away from his plate for a moment... he got his biscuit snatched. His ''biscuit''. With chicken sitting '''right there'''. And the thief: none other than the "dainty lady". Ever since then, the poor girl has been constantly teased, with Dad cracking jokes about their "vegetarian dog" and having to guard his biscuits carefully. (It doesn't help that for all her excitability, the younger dog apparently has ''never'' even ''tried'' to snatch anything...)
#90034
This troper once went on a downloading binge of all the free DLC for RockBand that was out at the time.
"Headphones On" was one of the songs. I have never been able to live it down, and jokes about me being a "closet ''I Carly'' fan" continue to be made, despite the fact that I've never even seen ''any'' of the show.
#90036
This Troper. He
went batshit on a certain event in SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Gaiden which involved his favorite female
Lamia Loveless got humiliated and received her DethroningMomentOfSuck. And went batshit again if someone mentioned that event. Time passed. The troper has managed to keep down his wonk and tried to be more civil, following the SRW fandom more normally. The fandom, however, would always remember him as the pinnacle of Lamia's FanDumb and still be that way forever. And whenever the troper types in 'Lamia' in expressing his opinion on favorites... they'd look at him funny. It's gotten so bad that several forums' mod have gone away to lock any of the troper's topic if he dare at least to insinuate that moment in the slightest form possible.
#90037
This troper's main character on an online play by post [=RPG=] is the most skilled fighter in the area, has several times saved varying other characters, and frequently gets embroiled in the in character drama between various factions. To everyone other player, he's
'that guy with an embarrassing crush on his boss.' Similarly, his other character does a wide variety of
strange things with his RealityWarper powers, but all he's ever remembered for is 'turning that guy's office upside-down.' It seems to happen a lot in this game, actually, as inevitably whenever a nostalgic discussion is being had on [=IRC=], someone manages to bring up the fact that once, before he took over, the in-character leader of the country threw a chair out the window when he was teaching.
#90038
This troper promised to bring butternut squash to a group Thanksgiving dinner in 2008. She decided to follow a recipe for butternut squash casserole that called for grated butternut squash. She proceeded to spend ''two'' hours grating an entire butternut squash, by hand. Her mom still jokes about it with her.
#90039
This troper was on a trip to London with some friends. A few of us went to a club, where this troper, through a complex series of events and heartbreaks (don't ask), ended up drinking 23 shots of Jack Daniels in about two and a half hours. He also got a free drink, called a Blowjob Shot, from the male bartender. The night ended with him vomitting on a stripper pole and being dragged out of the club by his friends. The best part? It was later discovered that the club is actually a gay bar. This troper still hears about the time he threw up on a stripper pole in a gay club after getting a blowjob from a guy.
#90040
{{Pikachukid}} knows a guy who's mocked for a schoolgirl giggle that he let out precisely once. It's been over a year now, and we ''still'' take every opportunity to mock it.
#90041
Additionally, I myself have been mocked for admitting to a certain...solitary act. Weirdly enough, my surname seems rather fitting for this. And just to throw off suspicion as to my feelings toward the surname: ''I'' first made the pun.
#90042
{{Stryper}}'s best friend convinced him to go see {{BattlefieldEarth}} on opening day with his wife. Still bring that one up on occasion.
#90043
In fifth grade, I was laughing raucously with some of my classmates, when I farted. It happens. ''Eight years later'' in college, in a different state, my shoulder was tapped, followed by someone yelling "HA HA HA! (Fart noise)." It was one of my old school mates from that day. Dear God.
#90044
This troper's mother won't let her forget she nursed for close to two years. In addition, this troper's brother will never lose "Mommy fix it! Mommy glue it back on!".
#90045
In sixth grade, I've shown my huge obsession to Pokémon. I'm in 11th grade now. I'm still teased and mocked about it. Many people think I'm still a Pokémon fanboy and my favorite is Pikachu, even though I told them that I moved on to other things, like playing electric guitar and listening to rock and metal. Really annoying.
#90046
I'm always remembered for a different stupid thing.
#90047
This troper will NEVER let his mother live down the time when she made a right hand turn and let the car get struck by a cement truck that she claims she didn't see, yet I saw (and given that she was the 'experienced driver' in the car, assumed she had as well). Since only the car took damage and no one was hurt, it has become a running gag in our family.
#90048
Any family has about 5-10 of these per member. One of the things my family refuses to let me live down was the time when I threw a shingle at my sister (I couldn't even see her at the moment I threw it because I threw it out of a clubhouse window) out of anger because she wouldn't stop being a complete jerk to me and making fun of my friends. So I grabbed the shingle and threw it towards her to just make her run away. Somehow
it hit her in her eye and I got in the worst trouble for it. They still bring that up.
#90049
This troper is currently finishing up a fan-fiction for TheMuppets where they all get super powers and have to use them to save the city. The problem? When I began writing it several years ago on a Muppet fan message board, I wrote the title as "Supper Muppets" (the actual title is "Super Muppets"). The moderator who said he would change the misspelling did not, so it stuck, and my kid brothers have yet to let me hear the end of it.
#90050
Can NLID be positive (or at least non-negative)? Because I ad-libbed a line in a play in high school ("good luck with that!" to be precise), and my dad still says that to me once in a while, affectionately.
#90051
This troper's maths homework when she was eleven was to do something creative as a study help for learning about shapes. As the serious piece, she did a poster. Then, because she was bored, she created a tongue-in cheek ballad of {{Narm}} for the heck of it. Unfortunately, on the morning, she printed the wrong one off. The nerd she was aged eleven, she decided to wave her lyrics in the air to get out of detention for not doing her homework. Unfortunately, the teacher made her perform the song, which included the lines: #QUOTE# Take a trip to Polygon Park, the next to last stop on the number 2 bus #QUOTE# Take a walk round Pentagon Square, where 360 crazy angles, one degree each #QUOTE# Follow you, take you round it #QUOTE# Pentagon, hexagon or irregular octagon! {{It Got Worse}} when a boy started laughing. Overly defensive of this bucket of fail, she yelled at him, "DO YOU MIND?!" The teacher loved the song. However, to this day, the
mean girls at her school keep asking her to "sing the Polygon Park song".
#90052
This trouper remembers when she was a kid when her parents were still together a time when everyone was still happy. Her dad would always tell her mom to not use sharp tools when picking at her teeth and to use floss instead. Her mom didn't listen and she used a knife to pick her teeth...and it got stuck for like twenty minutes. No one lifted a finger because her dad was too busy laughing at her misfortune and her sister was speechless. This girl here panicked seeing a knife in her teeth. We never let her live it down whenever she starts picking at her teeth again. In fact, this trouper will always be the one to bring it up by asking, "Want to use a knife to pick your teeth?"
#90054
For This troper, its remembering the players in the TableTopRPG that works this way. #QUOTE#One is remembered for infamusly blowing the entire party's cover during a game of DarkHeresy via the simple comment 'He's with us.' Which not only derailed the entire plot, but provoked the final boss fight immediately. Apparently making
the enemy your ship captain was not the wiseist decision. #QUOTE#Another managed to have the shortist lived PlayerCharacter ever, when her
Nekomini mage dropped a fireball into the tiny room she and the guards were standing in. (Think a phone booth) #QUOTE#Worse off is a player known for the line 'I pull the mirror' A
Paladin of his on his first time playing decided that while the rogue was very carefully avoiding messing with the ovbiusly disabled trap in the corridor, he would grab them, since they were worth a large chunk of coin each.
after calling in the rogue to disable the trap in the first place. Naturally when the trap blasted the entire party and nearly killed them all,
sending the full plated Paladin down the corridor and
physically into the stone dungon wall, he refused to fess up that he did it out of greed. Topping this off was that
his patron god directly opposed the goddess of greed. #QUOTE#By contrast, The OnlySaneMan in our group is known for the same incident that earned this troper a reputation for BeyondTheImpossible Crazy Awesome game mastering. Ambushed by a trio of vampires on the open road, he decided to
cut to the heart of the matter by running up the tree that the vampire mage was standing on, in full plate mail. Promptly killing the vampire in a SingleStrokeBattle before his landing caused the ground to ripple, and the tree to explode into splinters. Any time he makes a charicter, people ask 'So going to run up any trees this time?'
#90055
A classmate of this troper will never live down his freshman semester, where he drank until falling asleep in all parties and licked a cat, among other crazy stuff. Even he misses those days.
#90056
One English assignment instructed us to provide an entertaining, ten minute presentation of an assigned
Greek myth. One guy decided the time limit was of higher priority. Cue listening to a Youtube video that I will not post a link to to protect the guy's privacy. Let's just say that the teacher
drily informed him that a presentation from another period using a computer program for narration had more emotion and was more entertaining than he was. In addition, the kid was asked to never read to the teacher again. We've been slipping it in as a running joke for pretty much anything possible ever since.
#90058
When
I was about 9, I watched the 1994
Street Fighter movie with my sister and cousins (I wasn't 9 when it came out, we just watched it like 6 years after it came out). Well, I had been playing Street Fighter for years, and was very excited to see a movie based on my favorite game at the time. Unfortunately, as soon as the movie started, I shouted, "THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY STREET FIGHTER LIFE!" Now, 10 years later, if Street Fighter is even ''mentioned'' in my presence, my cousins will be sure to remind me of this.
#90059
I once managed to total two cars in about a week due to
working all night and going to school during the day(which lead to getting about 6 hours of sleep a week). The second one was my dad's Gen1 Prius, now, whenever Priuses are discussed around me, he brings up that he used to have one, until I crashed it.
#90060
Jaydee}} This Troper has yet to be forgiven for losing his group in a visit to Las Vegas, Nevada. VivaLasVegas, indeed. #QUOTE#"I'm already known in this campus as the idiot that got lost in that trip to Las Vegas." #QUOTE#"We stick with 'the guy that got lost'"
#90061
Whenever I feel that my mom is making unreasonable demands of me (which isn't often, thankfully), I remind her of the time she forgot to pick me up from the YMCA for over three hours (this was before cell phones were common). (She was sleeping.) She makes this weird sound that's a cross between a laugh and a cry and pretty much asks me why I can never forget that.
#90062
This tomboy troper's extremely girly best friend says "fabulous" or just "fab" all the time.(And tends to use other valley girl terms, such as "like", "totally", and "that's hot") I'm usually the one´playfully mocking her valspeak, but once, while being particularly CloudCuckoolander-y, I made the mistake of saying "fabulous". She's promised that I will be teased for¨all eternity.
#90064
This troper frequently shoots down his dad's jokes on this manner by reminding him when he tried to get up a muddy slope (despite my step-mother's pointing out that the car wouldn't manage it) and didn't even get a quarter of the way up. So, I fight fire with fire. Also, me and my dad have vowed never to let my sister's misspelling of "Golden Coin" (How can you spell that wrong and end up with "Golden Colin", anyway) be forgotten, to the extent that it is a bit of a series of jokes about my sister's
pour speeling.
#90065
Not funny example: this troper would now rather confide her love troubles in her friends more than she could in her mother. Her mother has not given up on reminding her about the incident with a boy, despite her constant claims that yes she listened to the wrong advice and it's gotten to a point where this troper cannot let it go and it has been wearing down on her emotionally.
#90066
(Above troper) However, a friend of this troper has poor aiming skills and so whenever he fails to throw something at her and hit her point-blank, she teasingly likes to bring up the incident with the mints...
#90067
This Troper's brother was out of the room while their friends were hanging out. His computer screen saver was on and it was showing a slideshow of his pictures folder. Then it showed a girl who looved like she had been murdered. This troper's friends immediately went to the My Pictures folder and found and entire folder of, as we put it, "Dead Murdered Girls." My brother has no idea how that folder got there, but that doesn't stop us from asking him about it whenever we see him.
#90068
This troper thinks your brother knows exactly how it got there.
#90069
This Troper was learning how to drive over the summer. Driving up the hill to home, she freaked out seeing a large truck coming out of nowhere and tried to serve to avoid hitting it. Unfortunately, she drove over the sidewalk and crashed into a tree! One month later, the 13-year-old blue Subaru outback was replaced by a red Honda, but the accident will haunt this troper for the rest of her life. Never live it down indeed.
#90070
This Troper, will never let his mother live down the time she tried to get the whole family to watch a documentary about a spelling bee. And his brother constantly reminds him that he was responsible for breaking his (the little brother's) arm, although this troper has no memory of doing so.
#90071
This troper has a friend that ended up drinking too much, leaving him to be found sprawled on the toilet with his pants down, asking "Which one is the soap?" This lead to our ''female'' friend having to help him stand up, pull up his pants, flush and wash his hands, because the troper himself was laughing too hard. Soap-boy hasn't lived it down in the past 5 years.
#90072
The friend that helped him up actually got plastered much more recently and ended up spending some time before the porcelain throne. Soap-boy tried to pass it off as "Now it's her turn to never live it down!" but I informed him that there was nothing on the order of "Which one's the soap" so it was still on him.
#90073
When I was a young, stupid kid, I had started using the internet, and at a Pokemon forum I went to before, I wrote about Sneasel all the time, and how awesome and cute it was. Apparently, some of the older members found this annoying, and after a while started bullying me a lot about this - I became the ButtMonkey of the forums, sort of. Understandably, as I was really annoying back then(but I still think the bullying was wrong!). Even a few years after I had matured and left the annoying-kid-ness behind me, it seemed that people STILL thought of me as that "sneaselblahblah derpyderp" person. (This stopped in a few more years, luckily. And today, I'm almost never at that forum anymore.)
#90074
People that has known me since elementary and middle school will pretty much know me as "the Pokémon fan". Though this is not untrue, as I've always been and is still a big fan of Pokémon, it's a bit annoying that this seems to be the one thing they remember about me(especially since I have just a big of an interest in other series like Mario and Zelda now). Maybe because when the Pokemon craze had gone down, no one played it anymore, possibly because "they had no one to play with" and it went from there. I was pretty much the only fan, and everyone knew this. (Just stop singing the
dubbed Pokemon theme song around me! I DON'T WATCH THE ANIME!)
#90075
During a visit with this troper's mate (before we moved in together), I was taken to get ice cream at a local creamery. When it came my time to order, I ordered a waffle bowl with just sprinkles...which apparently, the lady at the counter mistook as "just a waffle bowl filled with sprinkles, no ice cream". While the lady could be slapped for being that stupid, I will never live the incident down with my mate, as the creamery advertised their ice cream as "Frozen Custard", and up until then, I had ''never'' heard of ice cream being called that.
#90076
Similarly, I once had a bizarre dream that ended with me stopping by a convenience store for some coffee (this troper ''hates'' coffee). It was only one dream, and I had never had the craving for coffee again, but ever since I told him about it, my mate refuses to stop teasing me about how "my dream self wants coffee", each time we pass by the coffee aisle of the grocery store.
#90078
For our 2010 Christmas picture, mere seconds before the camera went off, my dad got annoyed and put up ''both middle fingers''. He put them down just in time for the flash, but everyone was laughing too hard for the picture to have come out good. And every time we bring it up again, I will say "I wish it ''had'' taken that picture, just so I could see people's reactions to it!"
#90079
When my little brother was four, my friend convinced him that there was a 'magical talking tree' in the front yard. We were playing Manhunt with a bunch of other kids, and my little brother was on the team looking for people. He heard my friend talking to him from behind the tree and asked 'who's there?', to which my friend sarcastically answered 'the magical talking tree'. My brother's response was just to say 'okay' and walk away.
#90080
When yours truly was a just a wee lad, I wound up undergoing a fit of nausea not long before I was due for a trip to the barber's. To this day, almost thirteen years later, my mother ''still'' accuses me of deliberately trying to puke my way out of a haircut.
#90081
My friend (we shall call her Asiago) told me about a guy she's friends with and he's in college. (we are in high school) They are both literature geeks, but they have opposing tastes and like to have little debates about it. Their relationship is perfectly platonic. Asiago also happens to have a very Victorian-era social sense and when she gets embarrassed she turns this wonderful bright red. So whenever she says anything unwittingly suggestive, I say something fitting the AccidentalInnuendo concerning "college boy" and she turns bright red and curses me. She has my equivalent of course and together we're pretty much like a pair of stoplights when we both feel like letting the other know that they will never live it down.
#90082
This troper's sister once tried to make a cup of tea and ended up melting the base of the kettle. I am never, ever letting anyone forget it.
#90083
In middle school,
I had a lisp and somewhat bad speech problems (which I didn't have in elementary, but they came on later). Once, I tried to pronounce 'chip,' but instead said 'cheep.' I also said 'acopalypse' instead of 'apocalypse.' One memorial conversation went like this: #QUOTE# Me: I finally cleaned my room! I'm so proud of myself! -does some weird movement- #QUOTE# Friend 2: Did you just...go...-does said movement- #QUOTE# Me: Yeah, why? #QUOTE# Friend 2: It's funny.
#90084
Soon, there was also this: #QUOTE# Me: Anyway, HidekazHimaruya posted a picture of
Japan in a
maid outfit! I was so happy! #QUOTE# Friend 2: Did you...did you just say you felt like a lemur?! #QUOTE# Me: No! #QUOTE# -Friend 1 collapses from laughing- #QUOTE# Friend 2: (insert my name here), see what you did?!

This lasted all the way throughout school, even when me and Friend 1 went to college.
Wonderful friends.

This troper can admit to being a bit of a jerk in her earlier years. To this day her friends still think of her as a total {{Yangire}}, despite toning down her violence by a lot. Doesn't prevent me from playing it up sometimes, though.

This troper, after his first time getting drunk, had a rather...enlightening conversation with his vent buddies...long story short, I'm now known as the guild speedo dude, I don't even ''wear'' speedos.

Non-human example, this troper's cat once wagged his tail a bit too close to an open stove fire... He has henceforth been unofficially nicknamed "Charmander".

When out with some friends, I saw a man fall on his bike. I started laughing(yeah, I know it wasn't nice of me, but at that time and place I couldn't help myself) and the others complained about this. To this day, one of my friends keep bringing this up("Remember that time that guy fell off his bike? You sure laughed a lot!") and I just want her to shut up about it already...

In sixth grade, I was at my strings class. The school was undergoing construction so the class was in a portable. It was a nice day so the teacher left the door open. My friend and I were in the middle of practicing our duet when a wasp flies in and I abruptly screamed. #QUOTE# Teacher: Go on. Get out of here. #QUOTE# Me: Did you just say "Carl, get out of here?" #QUOTE# Friend: Did you just name the wasp Carl? #QUOTE# Teacher: Don't name the wasp! By the time I go to kill it you'll be, "Don't kill Carl..."

Then in eighth grade on a class trip to Washinton, DC, I had eaten one stick of rock candy and that apparently was enough to give me a seven hour sugar high. On the way to the Holocaust Museum, I'd seen a pigeon and began chanting: "Go pigeon go! Go pigeon go! Find that food! Go pigeon go!" I'd also asscosiate anything with pigeons so when we were at the airport I said: "We're gonna go on a plane and fly. JUST LIKE A PIGEON!!"
