This happens to me every day. Me: "Oh no, I'm not going to be late to Science, I'm almost there..." Friend: "Oh no, (alias) Haruhi, you must help me with X!" Cue me wondering how I got involved with The Quest To Find The Blue Monkey, or helping (alias) Nagato to get her cookies to Spanish class. I'm cursed! CURSED I TELL YOU!!! (Alias) Kyon does not believe me.

Playing GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas, and trying to beat N.O.E. without any help from Dad. Trying really hard to stay below the radar limit (difficult when the game keeps saying you're above it when you clearly aren't >.>), when this happens: #QUOTE#'''Reiko-chan''': I am not above the radar limit. I am ''not'' above the radar limit. I am about to run the fuck into a bridge! ''(laughing)'' Ohhh '''''shit!'''''

I live in Iowa. Once during a tornado watch, a Storm Chaser on KCCI was reporting. He said something about a funnel cloud dropping down over a house. I glance at the TV, and guess who's house it is.

This troper used to practice kickboxing and got fairly good at it. One day I got picked to spar with one of the instructors, a third degree black belt who spent most of his free time competing in tournaments. The fight progressed in a fairly slow, relaxed manner at first... until I managed to fake the instructor out and land a solid kick directly to the side of his (headgeared) head. For a moment the fight just stopped, and he looked at me in sheer amazement... then got an evil, EVIL grin on his face as he decided he didn't have to hold back anymore. Cue the "Oh Crap" on my part.
#94817
Last week, this troper is playing Fatal Frame III on the chapter where you need Purifying Lights. Then she almost ran out of it so she ran as fast as possible to the room where you usually find them. And when she arrived to that room, it already ran out. And then Reika appears.
#94818
This troper came across pictures of his friend, a bodybuilder, in a major bodybuilding contest. At first this troper thought "Nah, that can't be real, he must've edited those pictures." On closer look, the pics seemed genuine. His reaction? A link to the Oh Crap page.
#94819
Playing DevilSurvivor. I'm all happy, because I have a totally overpowered team based on almost every element except Ice. My most badass character was Fire. Then came Belial. Immune to fire and half-damage from non-Ice. I didn't know this at first. #QUOTE#'''Me:''' Haha, look, some totally weak boss! Haha, I cracked Agidyne already, dumbass! Prepare to die! #QUOTE#'''Belial:''' Blocked. #QUOTE#'''Me:''' Oh, shit.
#94820
This troper had her first serious "oh, shit" moment when she flipped her mother's van. Specifically, it was "Oh fuck fuck FUCK, that wasn't the brake! Oh, sweet Jesus, I'm gonna die and Mommy's going to KILL me..." However, nobody was hurt and she's gotten over her phobia of parking spots.
#94821
This Troper uses this phrase a little too much after picking the word up from Strong Bad, and especially likes the variant said by Homestar: #QUOTE#'''Homestar Runner:''' "Oh, cwaaap."

So there I am, playing Kingdom Hearts for the first time while my sister watches from the couch, munching on a bowl of popcorn. I've made it all the way to the tail end of the game and I'm going through the bonus fights at the Colosseum. "Hey, try the Platinum Match!" my sister says to me. The pre-fight cinematic begins... the challenger appears... #QUOTE#'''Me:''' Oh no. #QUOTE#*''Cue'' One Winged Angel, ''Sephiroth draws Masamune, turns, and strikes a pose''* #QUOTE#'''Me:''' Oh ''fuck!''
#94823
This troper's Luxray is extra-crispying its way through the Water gym. Then we meet Barboach, which despite looking like a fish is half Ground...making it immune to electricity. This troper can't recall whether he actually ''said'' "OhCrap" after getting the Luxray pushed to the edge of unconsciousness with a single Mud Slap, but he was certainly removing large rectangular objects from his pants afterwards.
#94824
Remember to always bring Grass for backup, then it's the Water/Ground types that say OhCrap.
#94825
Near-death with a ''single'' Mud-Slap? No, I think that's nobody's fault but your own.
#94826
This Troper has had a few in WorldOfWarcraft. I play a ranged caster type...few things make me go OhCrap quicker than realizing that I'm tanking the boss due to MeatShield death...
#94827
That ''is'' an OhCrap moment. A raid group is a surprisingly delicate structure. It's held up by how many tanks you have. They're the pillars. These pillars are constantly being repaired by the healing classes (priests, druids, paladins, etc). However, should those pillars happen to crumble...the whole damn building comes crashing down, since nobody else is armored enough to withstand the damage.
#94828
Anyone who has played ''{{Left 4 Dead}}'' will agree when I- DUN DUN DUUNNNNN. DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNNN

And then you hear crying.

This troper had a particularily epic moment in Halo 3. Essentially- Online play. Regular zombies are basically slow moving laser cannons that are almost entirely useless and annoying to play as, while the alpha zombie is a nigh-unstoppable beast of power that can destroy your vehicle and everyone inside it by touching it once and can run about as fast as the fastest vehicle in the game. There is nothing funnier than the reaction to a warthog flipping over during a car chase. #QUOTE#'''Me''': OH SHITFUCK FLIP THE WARTHOG GET IN GET IN GET IIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN #QUOTE#'''Friend''': *drives off without me* NO TIME FOR SURVIVORS #QUOTE#'''Me''': *sees very fast moving glowing thing coming towards me* FUUUUUUUUUU- *killed*

This Troper, ''right'' before her DethroningMomentOfSuck (more detail on her contributor page). All of the fic copies were hidden or lost somewhere among the student population... and then another student told me that Coach wanted to see me. Of ''course'' OhCrap was my immediate thought.

Me playing the first round of {{Star trek Armada}} II (As the Cardassian's) against My dad (As {{The Federation}}), after building My fleet a bit I noticed His Galaxy and Sovereign class rush charging to My base. #QUOTE# Me under My breath: "Uh oh"
#94833
Thankfully I had managed to beat Him back with an army of Keldon's
#94834
This reaction Had also occured when attempting to clear a way to an Inf. Dillithium moon to replenish Bio-matter reserves (Playing Specie's 8472 this time) the Dillithhium moon had a HUGE blockade composed of pulse turrets and torpedo turrets that would make a starbase jealous.
#94835
This troper's primatology professor, upon realizing that she just showed up half an hour late to her class (it started at 1:15; she, thanks to stress and lack of sleep, thought it started at 2:40, and only came to the room because she needed to grab something), only had two words to say: "Oh. Shit." The few of us that had waited for her (most of the students had walked out before she showed up, thinking that class had been cancelled) jokingly informed her that she now owed us all late passes.
#94836
This Troper got the "Oh Crap" look on his face right at the start of the final boss fight in Mass Effect 2
#94837
In a recent session of this troper's [=DnD=] game, the party were captured and ended up in a gladiatorial arena. They were set to fight the arena champion, who was by all accounts invincible. However, he also would spare nonevil enemies. When we faced him, the party psion asked him if he wanted to escape. He did. The psion disintegrated the wall of force that separated the arena from the audience. OhCrap for the audience.
#94838
I was playing chess with my guy friend Phoenix in the library. He nabbed my last pawn with his horse, but I noticed I could get said horse with my queen, so I queen'd him mid-gloat. #QUOTE#'''Phoenix:''' Haha, that was your last paMOTHERFU-

He then proceeded to sink to the floor and curl up in a ball while I laughed harder than I had in a while.

Anybody who has played ShadowOfTheColossus had an OhCrap Moment when they saw the first enemy. The very first enemy, who is at least a hundred feet tall.
#94841
Mileage varies. I had more of an "OH HELL YES!" moment, so to speak.
#94842
In an online play of MonsterHunter Tri with a friend, we were running around the flooded forest, chasing a very annoying Royal Ludroth. After the beast ran away from us for the Xth time, we were about to jump in the water and swim after him, but noy before using some healing potions, then I heard a loud "boom", turned the camera around and saw A FRIGGIN HUGE WINGED DRAGON LOOKING AT ME FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AREA (I have no idea which monster it is since I'm new to this series), the rest went like this, through Wiispeak of course: #QUOTE# Me: WHAT DA HELL IS THAT #QUOTE#Friend: What? What's happening? #QUOTE#Me: LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT WHAT IS THAT THING #QUOTE#Friend: OH SHIT GET OUT OF HERE *dives* #QUOTE#Me: *while diving* Yeah sure but what is that monster?! #QUOTE#Friend: *too busy swimming the hell away to answer*
#94843
And after fighting the Ludroth in the next, underwater area, he ran (well, swam) away again... To where we came from. #QUOTE# Me: *entering the area* Oh no, it's still there D:

This troper got a big one while watching AngelsAndDemons: #QUOTE#" Let's see, four elements, four Preferiti. First element, earth, Preferiti killed via being choked with dirt. Second element, air, Preferiti killed via punctured lungs. Third element, fire...uh-oh."

After watching Doctor Who's "Flesh and Stone" (the one with the Weeping Angels, who probably make up the majority Doctor Who's High Octane Nightmare Fuel page), at around 2 in the Morning, the lights are perfectly on. I am home alone, and nowhere near the light switch. The light goes off... Seeing how the Angels seem to enjoy killing the light sources before attacking, I to simply put it: shit it.
#94846
Now I am extremely paranoid whenever I face away from a door, thankfully, I haven't seen any statues that resemble Angels recently.
#94847
Me and my sister had a dance recital recently, and she was in two types of dance while I was in one. This wouldn't have been much of a problem if the costumes didn't have two different types of tights and just a different outfit (For the record, each dance had to wear two pairs of tights with each costume). Now, the big problem comes when she has a ballet number two songs before our pom number. This may not seem like a short amount of time, but you try taking off one costume, and putting on another really complicated one, within that time limit. It did have actual use of this phrase: #QUOTE#Sam: (As sister and another one doing ballet and pom pass us) You have two songs to get changed. #QUOTE#Sister: (Not slowing down) Crap.

I swear, I had to read that three times before I properly parsed that word as having only three letters.

This Troper had one whilst playing ''Half Life 2'', shortly after meeting 'Manhack' Matt in "Route Kanal". She'd gone down a dark corridor, and saw the red glow of a Manhack, only for it suddenly mysteriously explode, and a fire to start. The fire spread as she batted a couple of Manhacks away with the crowbar, and then switched on the flashlight just in time to see that the fire is actually a pair of lit Explosive Barrels''''' right next to her''''', causing this to happen... #QUOTE#'''Me:''' *''Turns to run''*Oh cr-*'''''BOOOOM!'''''*

#94852
My mother had just sworn off men after a bad breakup. A couple weeks later she looks up and sees my dad standing in the doorway. Her first thought? "Oh, ''shit''."
#94853
This troper once caused this moment. She was pissed at one of her friends and was walking toward him with a quite creepy KubrickStare. Let's just say he got the OhCrap face badly and ran. For his ''life.''
#94854
She (same troper still) also gets this when people come toward her crying. The most recent example: #QUOTE#'''Friend:''' ''*crying her head off, complete with pathetic snivelling, sniffling and snot*'' #QUOTE#'''Me:''' OhCrap. RUN LIKE THE WIIIIIIND BATMAN.
#94855
This troper and some friends were watching RememberMe, a 2010 movie starring Robert Pattison (aka Edward Cullen). Anywho, near the end, Robert finds himself waiting in his father's offices. One of my friends said to cue an airplane. Soon after he said that, the scene shifts to a classroom in which the teacher had the date underlined on the chalkboard: [[IKnewIt September 11, 2001. All of us went Oh Crap.]]
#94856
This troper was playing Eversion (the level where you're chased by the wall of blood) when all of a sudden the power goes out. Of course, it shocked me into dying in the game, and then.... I SEE YOU
#94857
Jumping to a friend's Facebook profile only to notice that the "Add as Friend" button is once again thereother words, they've deleted you. This troper's internal reaction can range anywhere from "meh, I never cared about this person" to this trope.
#94858
Fairly minor, but this troper had this when he realised that he had no idea whether he had passed his stop on the bus due to being ingrossed in a game of sodoku on his new mobile. The panic ended when we turned into the town I had to get off...and I then got off at the wrong end of town, bringing it back for a second or so. Luckily, it wasn't a long walk to where I was staying that night (with my aunt), but it was dark when I got off the bus, which played merry havoc on my fear of the dark.
#94859
This was me when I was playing Pokemon Soulsilver and thinking ahead to save it after I finished at the center. Cue OhCrap when my brain decides that Nurse Joy telling me that my pokemon are healed is it finishing saving and flipping the on/off switch before I can react. And I had just gotten my Weedle to level up, too...

Once, I was playing Fallout 3. I realized I was taking damage. I turnned around, and stared directly into the face of a GiantEnemyCrab. I jumped three feet in the air and squealed like a little girl.

Me and my friends used to make fun of this one guy behind his back, nothing too serious, just a fun way to pass the time at school. So, in our first semester at high school, one of my friends gets himself a girlfriend out of nowhere, and out of habit, we asked her where she lived so we could drop her off after school. You cannot imagine the look of utter shock my friend had when it turned out it was the same place where the guy we made fun of lived. I personally laughed my ass off right there, my day complete.
#94862
This troper had a fun little moment playing Black and White}} Pokemon Black, involving [[{{Pokemon Diamond and Pearl}} Sinnoh Region Champion and new {{Bonus Boss}} Cynthia]]. He casually enters each house in a new city, seeing if there's anything of interest after few postgame routes of being ridiculously outleveled by everyone, and as he enters one in particular, town's music stops and is replaced by [[{{Leitmotif}} Cynthia's piano BGM. Cue terror as he realises just how screwed his team of six level 50-52 Pokemon is.]]

Though this troper's character was too busy fighting to really take it all in, she cannot see the rapist slavedrivers reacting any other way when their would-be victim {{exalted}}.

Hands up: How many of you have lied about doing your homework, only to have this reaction when the teacher asks to see it?
#94866
After reading the original haunted Majora's Mask cartridge {{creepypasta}} (i.e., pre-ARG), this troper created a second file in her game labeled "BEN" as a joke. So of course, after having been away from the Wii for a few weeks, she loaded the game and practically jumped out of her skin before remembering what she'd done.
#94867
This troper is involved in a superheroes game using a semi-homebrew system in which you don't fight individual villains/mooks/whatever. Instead, you fight threats, where a threat could be a bunch of mooks, a single EliteMook, a tank, the BigBad, a fire, or pretty much anything else the GM comes up with, and it's possible for the players to create new threats on bad rolls. Anyway, in one of the sessions, in which we had to infiltrate the clockwork palace of the Clockwork King of Switzerland, the party had two OhCrap moments. First OhCrap moment: The Clockwork King is a BigBad who has the ability to spy on any location using any clockwork objects in the location... such as the walls of his palace. Second OhCrap moment: When we eventually got into a fight in the palace, one of the threats was "He Watches". Eventually, we defeated the threat, and decided that this meant that we had managed to escape his sight. Until someone almost immediately created another threat, that is: #QUOTE#'''New threat''': You haven't.
#94868
This troper's example takes a bit to build up, so bare with me. The setting is history class. We are studying the beginning of the 1900s just after the industrial revolution when the MoralGuardians were realizing the bad parts to large factories, child labor and no health inspection protocol. The focus of our studies the three presidents involved with the progressive movement, meaning they worked to fix the CrapSack nature of business trusts and industry; Teddy Roosevelt, William Howard Taft and Woodrow Wilson. My teacher decided that for a test he would have us debate on which president was the most progressive by dividing up the class into three groups and choosing a few representatives. I got put in group Taft,the fuddy duddy on of three. Fine. This is a debate. If I am chosen as the group's rep, I can probably pull some obscure facts out of my ass and use my mask of competence and agression to win. I am made for debating. I have a big voice when I want to, an argumentive nature and a talent for pollishing shit via window cleaner from my ass. But then another person volunteers. She really wants to do it, she says she has it all organized and really really wants to be our rep. This is a rather prickly person whom I just got on halfway decent terms with, so if she thinks she can make Taft look progressive, I'll let her. Debate day comes. She is prepared. She has note cards. She blows off my pep talk and goes to the front of the class with the Wilson and Roosevelt debaters. In the peanut gallery, verbal dakka is pumped in all directions in particular between me and a Wilson kid. It's the usual "Fatso's goin ''down'' "Oh, I don't think so WW1, we are gonna pawn your ass from here to Jupiter!" I cannot wait to wipe the smile off his face. It's a matter of pride and me being right about the pawnage. So my rep goes first and does her bit. It's nice and neat, not over acted and hits the few key points available for Taft. Next is Roosevelt, a girl who tries to be more exuberant, but clearly knows little about what she's talking about. Easy pickins. Then the Wilson guy stands up. He speaks loudly. He makes grand gestures. He hams and haws on a progressive sandwich of Woodrow Wilson's majesty and has the class clapping for him at the end of it. Did I mention we are being judged by our fellow classmates? And the losing team gets a maximum of a 4.5 grade for their efforts, the winners 6.0? ''Shiiiit''. I see that kid laughing his but off in the row next to me. Our reps come back to our groups for a pep talk and more info before the last round when they will be actually arguing with each other. Hoping I can salvage the contest, I tell our rep to "Do what the Wilson guy's doing and then sqaure that by a thousand Steven Colberts." They go back up and she just sits there, not interrupting while Wilson and Roosevelt engage in Ham to Ham combat, my forehead hitting the desk once more. After the slow torture of being roasted over in the peanut gallery as my peers deem Wilsom to be the most progressive, I asked her how she could commit such treason. Her answer "I had nothing more to say." FacePalm. Anyway, I have told you this rather mundane little story so you could understand the layers of illuminative OhCrap in that History lesson. I never truly understood the meaning of "Oh Crap" until that first moment. When Woodrow Wilson's hammiest fan open his mouth and said "Now we ''all'' KNOW why Woodrow Wilson is the MOST progressive president of ALL TIME" and this equisitely horrible shiver went through me. A feeling reminicient of Achiles before the arrow struck, of Goliath staring at the stone spinning towards him. When you take your finger of the chesspiece and see your opponent smile, realizing exactly how far you have to fall and how little you can do about it. oh. ''CRAAP''
#94869
I'm from Maine. What weather do you usually think of when you think Maine? Tornadoes? Yeah, not so much. August of 2009, we had one come within ten miles of my mother's house; we didn't know the exact path at the time, though, only that we were in the middle of the warning area. That was OHCRAP Part One. Cue next June. Mom and I are on our way to the next town to get a pizza, and as we leave the house we hear thunder. One rumble doesn't have time to end before the next begins- just like last August's storm. We look at each other and think, "This is MAINE." We convince ourselves that it's just a bad storm and head out. Then we see the sky to the southwest. Matters do not improve. We get to the pizza place, get our food, head out the door, look toward home- and decide that RIGHT NOW is a good time to go get those groceries we forgot a couple more towns in another direction. Our route takes us up and over a large hill with an amazing view, so naturally I look. "Mom, that's a wall clou- OH FUCK THAT'S A FUNNEL!!! WE DIDN'T BRING THE PUPPIES!!!" That one came within five miles of the house, and the path would have taken it within a mile if it hadn't dissipated. OHCRAP Part Two. (And yes, I do feel guilty about not bringing the pups with us, but they were fine. In fact, they were asleep when we got home.) Now we hit July. I'm in Portland, in my brother's top-floor apartment with the lovely view to the north and west. I've been gaming, I hear thunder, notice that the light is getting wierd, look out the window- and jump online to get the latest forecast while saving and shutting everything else down. Swearing may have occurred. I got confirmation of ANOTHER tornado warning, grabbed my laptop, and booked it up to Maine Medical Center to ask if I could cower in their lobby until it passed. (Did I mention I have a phobia about storms and have had all my life?) And as I'm sitting there, the woman behind the desk tells another who is getting ready to leave that there has been a tornado spotted in Gorham and the path was taking it toward... you know where this is going, don't you? Luckily for us, it dissipated one town over. Still, OHCRAP Part Three. That's three definite tornadoes in the space of one year, plus two other possible tornadic storms while on my geology class road trip. People have threatened to start calling me Dorothy.

Me to. I lived in Florida, now live in NAME AND ADRESS WITHHELD so we never had that many in the sunshine state. Cue Chirstmas day, playing my new Wario game... Sister comes in. Turns off game, says there's a tornado coming. She'd tried the trick on me before, so I didn't believe her. Cue me walking to the living room, seeing my town (Howie-in-the-Hills, don't ask me) in tornado warning area. Cue OhCrap moment from me, breaking into shock remembering my paraplegic grandfather is out getting eggs. Cue CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming when he comes back OK.

In every game of MagicTheGathering @/{{Icarael}}'s played, his reaction to someone summoning/hard-casting Emrakul first is this. Of course, when he summons Emrakul first, this trope applies to them.

I DM a game of D&D 3.5e and tonight, one of my players (a Factotum) was blind and at the top of a one way fast transit tube, and a mystery fruit falls from the ceiling. He eats it, and is now unconscious. You know what the dwarf does? He goes up '''on his goddamn horse''' to check on him, not knowing that it was one way. He managed to reverse it, and ''throws'' the factotum down. Then he shoves his horse down, so he can follow. The factotum's player goes OhCrap, then starts rerolling. A ton of horse is fairly lethal, it turns out.

During my first run through Pokemon: Platinum Version (which also happened to be my first DS game; long story, but know that I had a DS Phat), the Elite Four was giving me a lot of trouble, due to my lack of level grinding. One, while at a Wal-Mart, I was idly working on beating Flint whenever my group needed to stop for something (I was minding the shopping cart). Towards the end of one aisle, I finally beat him, and pushed through the dialogue before walking toward behind him to face the next door and save, as was my habit. At the time, though, I needed to get going again, so I used my right hand to push the (now heavy) cart forward, while my left hand squeezed Up on the d-pad - and rolled right onto the power button.

When T.T. was at SakuraCon 2006 (an anime convention), he and his friends went to the retro gaming room and saw they had Tetris Attack there. This troper was somewhat better than the others. It was so popular that they organized a makeshift tournament on the last day of the con. Him and a friend were just playing for fun right before it started. The first match was him versus said friend. Upon finding that out, their facial expression and following {{Angrish}} were ''priceless''.

Actually ''caused'' ''two'' of these in a game of {{Halo}} (3 to be exact.) Team Slayer, forget the level, two guys were charging this troper in a Warthog, and he was packing a Rocket Launcher. This troper somehow managed to miss both shots (which was his own OhCrap moment.) As the Warthog stops quickly (there was a cliff nearby), he suddenly remembers... "I have a frag grenade left!" And chucks it just as the 'Hog turns toward this troper. The frag ends up right under the 'Hog's undercarriage. At that moment, this troper hear through his headset: "Dude - NADE! WATCH IT!" And then the driver, who has already driven over it, yells: "HOLY FU-". Hilariously enough, this troper and his roommates never heard the rest of the word because the grenade exploded under his side of the vehicle at that moment, killing him.which point their microphones stop picking them up until they respawn. Meanwhile, the Warthog itself was blown backward and hit a fusion coil, resulting in the vehicle rocketing up into the air and doing no less than ten very fast barrel rolls as it floated over the cliff. Cue an "OH SHIT!" from the guy that was in the passenger seat, as he tries to bail out of the Warthog...only to find that there is no longer any ground under him.

This troper remembers a rather funny one from his senior year in college. He and his roommate - a rather large fellow - were leaving the dorm along with a couple of other guys. A couple of other guys happened to be standing in the hallway. This troper's roommate - all in good fun, of course - told the guys to move. The first one did. The second one - a blond-haired, blue-eyed freshman goof that was in the Air Force ROTC - stood his ground, put on a grin, and said, "I'm not moving." So this troper's roommate decided just to walk through him. The change in the kid's facial expression (right before he went airborne) could have been the main page's trope image.

This troper recently wrote his landlord a cheque for about £2000 for the rent, and was extra-careful to keep just over two grand in his bank account. Checked the balance a few days later, it was £100 short. I forget my exact words, but they were not at all polite. It turns out that the cheque had cleared already and I'd underestimated the balance in my account, but by the time I figured this out I was already on a plane to Canada.

''EtrianOdyssey''. Three letters: F.O.E. I've had the misfortune of running into two of them, once because I miscalculated the patrol route of an orange one and found myself stuck between one and a mud square, and once because I stepped into a red one by accident--the latter was even WORSE because I didn't anticipate it. Thankfully I was able to run away in both instances.
