I've a bunch of these..
...like when a friend convinced me to go floating with him at the lake, even though I couldn't swim at the time, and I fell off of the innertube and instantly sank.
...like when I spun my Gran Torino when I was 16 and put it on top of hedge, with all four tires hanging in the air.
...like when the cops pulled me over (in that same Torino) for a broken headlight - just after the two guys in the backseat finished taking a bunch of bong hits. (Boy ... you been smoking any of that funny stuff?)
...like my second day of basic training (I was 17), I'm standing in my underwear as I turn and realize I just locked my keys in my locker.
...like when my dad walks in on my girlfriend and me in bed.
...like when my girlfriend's (a different one) period was late - and it was for a reason.
...like when another girlfriend (I'm sensing a pattern here) that I worked with left a rather personal note I wrote her on the counter at work for the manager to find.
...like when the mortor we were shooting off on the 4th of July tipped over and sent the mortor across the yard into the orchard next door and set it on fire.
...like when the smoke alarms in our house all went off at 2 o'clock in the morning. Fortunately, it was a false alarm but I don't think my heart has recovered yet.
But the biggest for me happened about two hours ago when my boss told me the company wasn't going to survive and it would be in my best interest to look for another job. No surprise, but it still sucks when finally put into words.
However, a huge "Oh, shit" moment for someone else is going to happen when the azzhole who is sueing us over nothing figures out that he just put his ONLY supplier out of business.
