People have shared some of their most embarrassing moment in a toe-curling Twitter thread.
The confessions were kickstarted by Sophie Petzal, 31, from London, who admitted she had dipped her hand into a man’s box of chicken nuggets, thinking he was a store employee handing out free samples.
She tweeted: ‘The worst thing just happened. I won’t recover. I just reached into a box of free samples outside a chicken restaurant. Only it wasn’t free samples. It was a man. Holding a box of chicken. His chicken. I tried to steal this man’s chicken.
‘I pulled away so fast. “Oh sorry I thought uh-” v clearly he doesn’t speak English. Is now just locked into this look of horror. This mad woman. Tried to eat his chicken.
‘What if he had to dump his chicken? What if he worried it was now contaminated?’
The hilarious confession gained over 200,000 likes and prompted others to share their own stories.
Sophie Petzal shared her horror to Twitter after discovering she had put her hand in a man’s lunch
She explained that she had assumed the chicken was samples for the shop, before realising her mistake
One person said: ‘That’s nothing. Wife and I met her friend for lunch one day- I bent over to give her friend’s baby a peck on the cheek, didn’t see she was breastfeeding until it was too late. It wasn’t her baby I kissed.’
Another got into a sticky situation with a housemate: ‘There was a laundry basket at the bottom of my stairs. I saw my husbands shirt in there and I could have swore I just cleaned that shirt so I grabbed it and took a deep sniff.
‘Nope, not my husbands shirt, my roommates underwear. Of course he came out of his room while I was’.
Her post gained over 200,000 likes and people soon began telling their own horrific stories
A third person, fearing they were in danger, found they were actually scaring someone else, saying: ‘Was once followed by an oddball in the supermarket. Was frightened so started to speed up. So did he.
‘Ended up with him literally chasing me up and down each and every aisle. Eventually, he caught up. And then he asked if he could have his trolley back.’
Another person shared a second-hand embarrassing story: ‘My grandad was on a train once and noticed that a passenger had forgotten his bag.
‘He grabbed the bag, ran after him, yelled ‘wait you forgot this!’ and threw it out onto the platform as the doors were closing. Turns out it was another passenger’s bag.’
Some people were rife with humiliation as they recalled the most cringeworthy things to ever happen to them
While someone else discovered they had ventured a little too far: ‘Went to find the toilet in a cafe. Thought it was odd how far away it seemed to be from the seating.
‘Found it and thought it was odd that there were toothbrushes in there. Turned out I was in someone’s house.’
Another posted: ‘I was on a long flight and the woman next to me looked like she was struggling to turn her TV on – the screen was black and she was pressing buttons.
‘I reached across & pressed the power button. An hour or two in I realised they had privacy screens and I’d just turned her tv off.’
Another cringeworthy confession read: ‘I once admired a beautiful coat on a manikin in TOPSHOP. Like full on admiration, I stroked it, brushed my face against it (don’t judge me, it was a very cosy looking coat!)
‘Only to realise that the coat wasn’t hanging on a manikin. It was hanging on a real girl! Real human being.’
