Seriously Embarrassed !

As if surgery can't come quick enough.... I just sat on and broke the toilet seat in our bathroom! How embarrassing and horrific. Now I have to explain to my hubby why we have to buy another one... Really?? Anyone else out there ever have anything embarrassing like this happen?

Good Grief... :huh:

  • Omg! I've been reading all the posts,and I'm laughing my butt off, it happens to everyone, I haven't broken anything, but one night I woke up in the middle of the night rolled over, didn't see my hu

  • I have had a number of cracked toilet seats , can't remember who/how they got broken, some toilet seats seem to be made of very thin plastic that is prone to cracking. The worst is if you sit on it a

  • You all have made me laugh out loud. I don't want anyone to get hurt, but there's something about seeing someone in that kind of a predicament that just breaks me up. I think I must have a sick sense

I am trying to think if I have broken anything and I realized I have. I broke two office chairs that I use at my computer over about a 12 year period. They didn't just break suddenly but the frame slowly bent over time until they were no longer level and left me sitting at an angle. I finally ponied up and bought a "fat mans" office chair online. It is supposed to support 350 pounds so I should be okay as I weigh about 299.

Hey, I know that is not a funny story but at least I did break something. :D

That's hilarious! That sounds like something you would see in a sitcom. It makes me laugh because I am wondering if your husband is like mine and replied with that calm almost monotone voice. This has nothing to do with size' date=' but I have a visual field defect (very little to no peripheral vision) and several times I have walked into a room shouting for my husband only to hear a low quiet voice say, "I'm right here," which of course causes me to scream in fright. :blink: [/quote']

I laughed so hard at this one!!!

Warning! If you are newly banded, please wait to read these hilarious stories! It will make your incision site sore and very well may rip it open. I was laughing weirdly and my kids thought I could hurt myself. Good stuff!!

Thanks for sharing.

I broke a chair at my mother in laws house one Christmas. Full of hubby's family & there's my a s s on the flour with wood all around me. I was sooo embarrassed.

I had started a "temp job" assignment and on the second day I broke an office chair. These people were not nice about it at all. The temp service called me at lunchtime and asked me what happened, but told me that my assignment there was over and the company wanted me to pay for the office chair. I was outraged, but embarrassed. I broke the step on our boat ladder and could not get up into the boat without 3 grown men helping me. I think we can all come up with something that we have broken, been totally humiliated over and at this point we all just have to laugh and grow from the experience.

Oh yeah I forgot about the time that at a pool party I sat in one of the flimsy white chairs and immediately heard a cracking sound. So I jumped up and sat in a different chair. Then one of my skinny friends came and sat in it and fell to the ground immediately!!! LOL Everyone was cracking up.,, except him Lol

I never told him about that, maybe I will the next time I see him!

I sat on one of those white plastic outdoor chairs and the back legs gave out

But the funny part is they went ever so slowly so I slowly, slowly sank down with the chair till I was laying on my back with the chair wedged under me!

That's too funny. Made me LOL! I wouldn't tell him! But then I have a sick and perverse sense of humor!

I've broken a toilet seat, couldn't fit in desks in classrooms, broke a table in home ec in front of the class as well. All too funny to cry over

Omg..lol... I also have a sick and perverse sense of humor. I can imagine the look on your face as you were slowly going down.

I did break a chair at a distant relative's house. The look on their faces was disgusted. Very Embarassed.

At other relatives houses... I arrive early and select a sturdy looking chair. NOT THE 150 year old antique!

As a matter of fact it happened another time. Always with the most judgmental people in attendance.

I always worry in restaurants about breaking chairs or breaking a lawn chair

Oh I did too! One time, at my heaviest, I almost got stuck. I went to get out of the booth, and I coudn't move. I had to try to wiggle my way out. Luckily it was in the back and no one saw me, but my husband was there and that is bad enough.
