Cringe!Chickenlady winces, "I told a Hugh Grant/Divine Brown joke to my dad, pretending that Ms Brown was chewing gum so she'd be more American. Instead I just appeared to be still giving the blow-job. Even as I'm writing this I'm cringing inside."
Tell us your cringeworthy stories of embarrassment. Go on, you're amongst friends here...

The veggie standThis was totally out of character for me, I am usually more politically correct than this!
Summer of 2007, I went to Leeds festival with a few friends. Myself and 2 friends were watching bands in the NME/Radio 1 tent while another friend was watching a different band elsewhere. He wanted to meet up with the rest of us so my friend was trying to explain to him in a text exactly where to find us, as it's difficult in the dense crowds.
He said "I've told him we're just in front of the veggie stand"
I turned around and saw, behind us, the raised platform where disabled people can get a better view of the bands playing, at the back of the tent. Without really thinking about it,
"That's not a very nice thing to say about the disabled" I responded.
"I meant the vegetarian food stall outside the tent!" my friend clarified.
I have never had such a non-PC thought in my life. I genuinely thought he was referring the disabled platform as the 'veggie stand'. My friends haven't let me forget it.
