We’ve all been kept awake at night by a suddenly cringeworthy memory popping into our heads. Accidentally calling your teacher “mom” in front of the entire class.
Saying “you too” when the waiter sets your food down and says “enjoy”, and pretty much everyone’s first date.
It’s one of the worst feelings when it happens to you, but when it happens to someone else, well, it’s still painful to watch, but you get the added comfort of knowing at least it’s not you.
So, while these posts will be a little painful to read, I’m sure you’ll get a laugh or two before flashing back to all of the cringe-worthy moments in your own life.
