I thought (for 2 years) that my arms were longer than MHs because when we stood side by side my fingers were lower. He was finally like, "you're shorter than me so your arms start lower than mine. You're arms are not longer."

We still laugh about it and I cant believe I was so stupid

I like that he waited to point this out.

This is an embarrassing story about a long ago ex.

Some context: my older sister is from Belarus.

So my ex, sister, and I went to the movies. They sell Ben & Jerry's there and I wanted ice cream. I decided on "coffee coffee buzz buzz buzz".

We're standing there chatting while I wait for it. My ex is deep in thought. All of a sudden he turns to my sister and with a totally straight face asks "What do cows say in Russia?"

My sister just goes "moo?" Completely flabbergasted by the question.

I. Almost. Died. Literally sitting on the floor tears streaming down my face while the people working there were staring at us. It still makes me laugh thinking about it.

WHAT HE MEANT was "What do parents teach their children that cows say?" But he's not the most eloquent... So...

It has turned into a family joke 10+ years later. All of a sudden someone will go "What do chickens day in France?" Or something to that extent.

This thread is amazing.
I seriously have so many embarrassing and ditzy moments that friends/family/coworkers call them Kelly moments.
College: a teacher is discussing our cities hockey team and how they might be bought and sent to a different city. So I raise my hand and politely ask how they intend to move the arena?
(I was actually in an advanced program, pretty sure the teacher lost faith in the screening process) my friends teased me for years.
Same year. Snap pants, pink panties, crowded hall and one really really good/bad friend.

Also I like to make dramatic exits from rooms. I'll spin to leave and walk into the door frame.

Oh also! I went to the liquor store here at 10am for tequila to make margarita cupcakes for my moms birthday. So I bought tequila as soon as it opened and left the store. The store has glass storefront and sliding doors. So I turned to leave and expected the door to open and smashed right into a window. Of course...many people in the parking lot saw me, with a Mickey of tequila in my hand.

For all the laughs I've gotten here I'll leave a few of my own face palm moments:

1) My high school boyfriend played baseball. There was a night game after some rain during the day. I got off the bleachers and was walking quickly (in flip flops) to get to the fence to give him another gatorade he asked for. I slipped in a puddle of mud and went right on my butt, turned around and see that everyone in the bleachers was staring (there were actually quite a few people there). I quickly said, I'm fine!! Turned around and gave him the drink as fast as I could and did the shame walk back to my seat.

2) Went to the beach with boyfriend and a group of friends in high school. Big wave, bikini top came down. All our friends and some bonus 13 year old boys got a good look at my AA's. Sweet.

3) H and I had been seeing each other for about 3 weeks, had only kissed at that point. We went to a friend's party and I got WASTED in the worst way. He had to hold me upright on the toilet so I could pee a hundred times (I pee a lot when I drink). To make it even more special, we had no water for the day at my mom's and I had intended on taking a shower there. My drunken self decided that was still a good idea and H ended up holding me upright in the shower and helping me shave my legs. I then went into my friend's room, fell on the floor and insisted his cat wanted to cuddle with me. H and another guy friend had to basically carry me out to go home.

OMG, you're my soulmate. The night I met H was filled with similar drunken antics.
