The following are the top three winners of a Most Embarrassing Moments Contest in the "New Woman Magazine". 1.) While in line at the bank one afternoon, my toddler decided to release some pent-up energy and ran amok. I was finally able to grab hold of her after receiving looks of disgust and annoyance from other patrons. I told her that if she did not start behaving "right now", she would be punished.To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice just as threatening, "If you don't let me go right now, I will tell Grandma that I saw you kissing Daddy's pee-pee last night!"The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange. Even the tellers stopped what they were doing. I mustered up the last of my dignity and walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow.The last thing I heard when the door closed behind me were screams of laughter. 2.)It was the day before my eighteenth birthday. I was living at home, but my parents had gone out for the evening, so I invited my girlfriend over for a romantic night alone. As we lay in bed after making love, we heard the telephone ring downstairs. I suggested to my girlfriend that I give her a piggyback ride to the phone. Since we didn't want to miss the call, we didn't have time to get dressed. When we got to the bottom of the stairs, the lights suddenly came on and a whole crowd of people yelled, SURPRISE!!!"My entire family, aunts, uncles, Grandparents, cousins and all my friends were standing there. My girlfriend and I were frozen in a state of shock and embarrassment for what seemed like an eternity.Since then, no one in my family has planned a surprise party again. 3.)One of the funniest "most-embarrassing-moment" stories I've come upon in a long time was about a lady who picked up several items at a discount store. When she finally got up to the checker, she learned that one of her items had no price tag.Imagine her embarrassment when the checker got on the intercom and boomed out for all the store to hear, "PRICE CHECK ON LANE THIRTEEN, TAMPAX, SUPERSIZE."That was bad enough, but somebody at the rear of the store apparently misunderstood the word "tampax" for "THUMBTACKS." In a business-like tone, a voice boomed back over the intercom, "DO YOU WANT THE KIND YOU PUSH IN WITH YOUR THUMB OR THE KIND YOU POUND IN WITH A HAMMER???" Two drunks were sitting on a street corner wondering if they should buy a beer with their last dollar. One of the drunks suggested that they buy a hotdog. The other started bitching, complaining that he couldn't drink a hotdog. The other drunk told him his idea. "What we do is buy a hotdog, go into a bar, and order two drinks. After we drink our beers you drop down to your knees, and I'll unzip my pants and pull out the hotdog so you can suck on it. The bartender will throw us out thinking we're queers." The other drunk thought this was a great idea, so they bought a hotdog. They went into the first bar, ordered their drinks, and drank them quickly. Then the drunk dropped to his knees and started to suck the hotdog. Sure enough, the bartender kicked them out thinking they were queer. They hit about ten or fifteen bars when the first drunk started to complain about his knees hurting. He asked if in the next bar the other drunk would do the dirty work. The second drunk said, "I'd rather not. I lost the hotdog after about the fifth bar."
During a Biology class, the teacher asked the class:"Why is that during childhood, gals tend to grow taller than guys?"A student replied: "That's because guys have "balls" and that weighs them down."Teacher: "Then why is that at maturity, guys tend to grow taller than gals?"Student: "That's because gals have breasts and they are heavier than the guys' ‘balls’.”Teacher FAINTED.
A SECRETARY COMPLAINS ABOUT HER BOSS. She says "My boss is so sex-crazed. Every time he comes into the office, I must do the LAPTOP position, and then the DESKTOP position, followed by the SPREADSHEET format.
I must LOAD UP his SOFT DISK into a HARD DISK, so that he can INSERT in my C DRIVE and then the A DRIVE.
Then he'll ask me to EJECT his SOFTWARE outside my C DRIVE so that he is VIRUS FREE.
Then he changes his mind and decides to ENTER, ENTER, ENTER the whole day till he is in MICROSOFT stage.
Once I tried to ESC (escape) but he caught me and SHIFTed me to his HOME where he started pressing BACKSPACE, and said "TURNOVER".
Today, many a times he works without CAPSLOCK (without "cap" or "helmet") and sometimes as an ALTernative he CRASHES @ my SYSTEM until he looses his CTRL (control) and again he LOGS IN...
This process may continue until I SHUT DOWN his MAIN SYSTEM.
Father Murphy walks into a pub in Donegal, and says to the first man he meets, “Do you want to go to heaven?"The man said, "I do Father."The priest said, "Then leave this pub right now!" and approached a second man. "Do you want to got to heaven?""Certainly, Father," was the man's reply."Then leave this den of Satan," said the priest, as he walked up to O'Toole. "Do you want to go to heaven?""No, I don't Father," O'Toole replied.The priest looked him right in the eye, and said, "You mean to tell me that when you die you don't want to go to heaven?"O'Toole smiled, "Oh, when I die, yes, Father. I thought you were getting a group together to go right now."
On their wedding night, Amanpreet displays his "magnificent beast" to his naive new bride, Lori, and tells her it's the only one in the world. She, of course, believes him.A month later he went to a conference for a couple of weeks. Upon his return, Lori questions him."Preet, I thought you said you had the only one in the world. But Quint, down at the drug store, has one, too!""Well, uh, " Amanpreet stutters, "you see, Quint and I were, uh, in the Air Force together, yeah, that's it, in the military, and I had two, so, uh, I gave him one of mine."Lori sighed. "Oh. I see. Well, why did you give him the *best* one?"
There was a beautiful young blonde at a soda machine in Las Vegas, and
she arrived there just before a businessman coming to quench his thirst. She opened
her purse and put in 50 cents, studied the machine a short while, pushed a Diet
Coke selection, and out came a Diet Coke. She placed it on a counter next to
the machine.
Then she reached in her purse again and pulled out a dollar and
inserted it in the machine. Studying the machine carefully, she pushed the
button for Coke Classic and out came a Coke Classic and 50 cents change.
She immediately took the 50 cents and put it in the machine, studied it
for a moment and pushed the Mountain Dew button. Out came a Mountain Dew. She
placed them both on the counter next to the Diet Coke.
As she was reaching into her purse again, the businessman, who'd been
waiting patiently for several minutes, spoke up. "Excuse me, miss, but are
you done yet?"
She looked at him and indignantly asked, "Well duh! Can't you see
I'm still winning?"

One of my biggest pet peeves when I substitute teach is when the
children don't bother to learn my name and just call me "Teacher"
instead of Mrs. White. To avoid that, I have developed several ways to
introduce myself so they will remember my name.
One day in a kindergarten class, I had the class first guess my name
after telling them that my name was the same as one of the colors I was
wearing. Once they guessed it, I had the children name everything they could
think of that was white. They mentioned milk, clouds, paper, and many other things,
so I was sure they would have no problem remembering my name.
Several hours later when I was out on the playground with my class, a
little girl fell down and came running up to me crying out, "Mrs. Snow!
Mrs. Snow!"

A tourist from a pastoral country was waiting at a traffic junction to cross the road. He asked a local guy, "Sir, shall I cross the road when the red man is lighted, or when the green man is lighted?"Singaporean: "So long as there is no traffic, cross the road. Never mind whether green man or red man. But when you see the blue man, do not cross".Tourist (looking puzzled): "But Sir, there is only a red man and green man on the traffic light. Where's the blue man?"Singaporean (pointing to a blue-uniformed policeman) "There... that's the blue man. If you see him, you better don't anyhow cross!"
One day, at KK hospital, 4 babies were born.... a German baby, a Jewish baby, a Filipino baby and a Singaporean baby. However, by a mistake, someone reshuffled the babies and the nurse who was on duty that day couldn't differentiate the babies as they were too young.(all babies look the same when they are newly born)So this poor nurse couldn't figure out how to tell the babies apart, and she went to ask the head matron how to tell the difference.The head matron thought for a while... then she came up with a really fantastic solution.... she went: "Hail Hitler!"And the German baby answered: "Hail Hitler!"And the Jewish baby seeing the German baby, shit in his diapers.And the Singaporean baby, seeing the mess made by the Jewish baby, turned to the Filipino baby in disgust and said: "Hey you, clean up the mess!"
3 POWs were caught by the Germans in a war. They were told that they will be shot at while they ran 100 metres. If they survived after that they would then be set free. So, the 3, a British, a Japanese & a Singaporean, lined up at the start. Bang!They started to ran like they never did before. At the 80 metre mark, the British was shot down. Before he went down, he patriotically shouted, "Long live the Queen" and died.At 90 metres, the Japanese was shot. Before he went down, he shouted, "Banzai" and died.Now the Singaporean was at 93m, 95m, 98m, 99m .... ... Bang! He, too, was shot down. Before he died, he shouted "KAYU LAH!!" One metre also no discount!"
One day, Ah Choy & Ah Seng were walking down the Chinatown when they saw something in their path. "Wait!" cried Ah Choy. "Wat is lat ho..?""Yah ho! Be carefool lo," warned Ah Seng. "Wat is it?"They approached the thing and looked at it very closely."Eee.. look like shit lah!" say Ah Choy."Hmmm..smell like shit also!" say Ah Seng after taking a deep breathe.Ah Choy then poked the thing with his one finger, raised the finger to his lips, tasted it and said, "Tastes like shit!"Ah Seng pushed his finger right through the thing and stick out his tongue to lick. With confident, he said, "Confirm is shit!"Then they smiled at each other, "wah! lucky we didn't step on it."
The English did invent the English Language, but they cannot use it effectively (in as few words as possible) when communicating their intentions. Just compare these few common phrases that Singaporeans and Britons use to say the same thing: OUT OF STOCKBritons: I'm sorry, Sir, but we don't seem to have the sweater you want in your size, but if you give me a moment, I can call the other outlets for you.S'poreans: No Stock-lah!Hokkien: Bo liao!!Malay: Habuk pun tadak.

While sports fishing off the Florida coast, a tourist capsized his
boat. He could swim, but his fear of alligators kept him clinging to the
overturned craft. Spotting an old beachcomber standing on the shore, the
tourist shouted, "Are there any 'gators around here?!"
"Naw," the man hollered back, "They ain't been around
for years!"
Feeling safe, the tourist started swimming leisurely toward the shore.
About halfway there he asked the guy, "How'd you get rid of the
'gators?"
"We didn't do nothin'," the beachcomber said.
"Wow," said the tourist.
The beachcomber added, "The sharks got 'em."

At one point, he bounced over to where I was sitting and announced "The Captain has asked me to announce that he will be landing the big scary plane shortly, so if you could just put up your trays, that would be great." I did as he had instructed but the woman sitting next to me did not.
A few moments later, our flight attendant came back and said to her: "Ma'am, perhaps you couldn't hear me over the big scary engine, but I asked you to please put up your tray so that the captain can land the plane." She still wouldn't comply. Now he was getting angry and asked her again to put up the tray.
She then calmly turned to him and said: "In my country, I am called a princess. I take orders from no one." The flight attendant replied, "Oh yeah? Well in MY country, I'm called a queen and I outrank you, bitch, so put the tray up!"
