00:00I had to wipe my butt with snow. Luckily, it was cold
00:04because of the hot buffalo, so that was the only saving grace.
00:08♪♪
00:11When I was 10 years old, it's like the weird,
00:14you're not a kid, but you're not like...
00:17You're starting puberty. You're at that weird transition
00:20pre-teenage where you wanna hang out with the teenagers,
00:22but none of them really want you around.
00:23That's where I'm at, okay? I'm awkward, I'm weird,
00:26but I wanna be grown. So, I was camping.
00:28I was at a KOA, and they have a kids' youth center,
00:31and they were doing karaoke, and I didn't know
00:32what karaoke was because I was sheltered.
00:35And all the teenagers were going, and they were like,
00:37do you wanna come to karaoke with us?
00:38And I was like, this is my dream. Yes, I do.
00:41So, I put on my sparkly lip gloss.
00:43I'm ready for whatever karaoke is because I've been
00:46a Yes Man since I came out of the womb.
00:48Right. No idea what it is.
00:49So, we get there, and there's the TV,
00:51and everybody's picking their songs,
00:53and I didn't know what was going on.
00:54So, I picked A Genie in a Bottle by Christina Aguilera
00:58because I liked genies, okay?
01:00I wasn't allowed to listen to Britney Spears
01:01and Christina Aguilera because they were too sexual.
01:04So, I had no idea what was going on.
01:05I thought I was gonna get a genie toy
01:07or watch a genie commercial. I didn't know.
01:10And I was the first one to go up there,
01:12and I had to say the words, no melody, nothing,
01:16to all of A Genie in a Bottle at 10 years old
01:19in front of everyone, and no one helped me.
01:21So, I was just like, baby, rub me the right way.
01:26Ooh, ooh, and I can't get over it.
01:29I still don't sing karaoke because it was mortifying.
01:32So, I live in Florida.
01:34I watch, me and my son watch a show called Bluey, right?
01:37It's about three dogs.
01:38The show is Australian.
01:40They all say, hello, you know?
01:42But so, me and my family, we say, hello,
01:45you know, in the morning.
01:46We think nothing of it, all right?
01:48So, yesterday I had an interaction.
01:50I forgot that I'm near Australia.
01:53I've never met an Australian person ever,
01:55and, you know, ignorance, right?
01:57My apologies.
01:58Beautiful place, love everything.
02:00I approached somebody that was having me do a test for them,
02:03and I said, hello, you know?
02:05I don't know why I said that.
02:07It's like the dumbest thing.
02:08I'm 40 years old.
02:08Why am I saying that?
02:09Well, I just, you know, I miss my son.
02:11They, you know, and he just said,
02:12all right, hey, how you doing, sir?
02:14And he had the full proper accent.
02:16He was an Australian.
02:17Do you know how low and dumb I felt at that point?
02:20I'm a computer science major.
02:22I just, it was, I wanted to profusely apologize.
02:25He was a very good sport about it,
02:27but I was red, like flush red.
02:29You know when you build up a moment in your head
02:32and the moment comes and you're like all hyped?
02:35I had thrown this crazy pool party at this motel in Miami,
02:38the cancer season pool party,
02:40and it was like an old school 60s hotel,
02:43and the rafters were packed,
02:45and I was set up by the pool.
02:47My band was playing, and I was like,
02:49the whole day I'm like, during my song, Florida Man,
02:52I'm going to crowd surf from the stage into the pool.
02:56And finally, like the moment comes
02:58and like the ego's riding high and I'm feeling it,
03:01and nobody moved like the floaties out of the way.
03:05So as I'm like finally rolling off,
03:08I like land face first on like this giant floatie,
03:12and it was like the most anticlimactic thing.
03:14And like, you saw everybody go like, yeah!
03:18Okay, I think we need to do that again.
03:19I'm a runner, and I was going to run a half marathon,
03:25and the night before, you know they say carb up, right?
03:27And so I ate hot buffalo chicken pizza,
03:32and I remember reading the race rules,
03:36and they said at mile seven, there's gonna be an outhouse.
03:39And so around mile four, I said,
03:43okay, I've got three miles,
03:46that's less than a half an hour, we're good to go,
03:50just keep going, 25 minutes, 22 minutes,
03:54anyone who runs knows what I'm talking about, 20 minutes.
03:56Well, I got to zero minutes, I said, where's the outhouse?
03:59They said, oh, it didn't come, there's not one until the end
04:03and I really, really had to go.
04:05And I'm like, okay, body, 45 minutes, 40 minutes,
04:10and at about 30 minutes, my body said,
04:14sister, you better go now, or I'll go for you.
04:18And I was in Massachusetts, oh, it was New Year's Day,
04:21so it was a gigantic race, and I had to just go,
04:25I thought about knocking on houses,
04:27but then the houses started getting sparse,
04:29and it's New Year's, I don't wanna wake somebody up
04:32at 8 a.m. to take a dump, and I just went on the side,
04:37there was nowhere, it was just a valley,
04:38there was nowhere to go, and I just plucked right down,
04:42and this is very embarrassing for me,
04:43because I actually don't like talking
04:45about going to the bathroom,
04:48I'm not jam jam poop in the ocean,
04:50I don't even wanna go, I begged them,
04:52like, do I have to go take an aqua dump,
04:54that's disgusting, I don't wanna do it,
04:56and it was so embarrassing, and there were people,
04:59they could see me, they were waving, they were laughing,
05:02I had to wipe my butt with snow,
05:05luckily, it was cold because of the hot buffalo,
05:08so that was the only saving grace,
05:10hashtag runners unite.
05:13I was in high school, and I used to run cross country,
05:16one race, I was really, really dehydrated,
05:19it was so hot, I passed out five feet
05:21from the finish line from dehydration,
05:23the next race, my coach was so worried
05:26that I was gonna pass out,
05:27that she was pumping me full of water the entire day,
05:30and it ended up being like a rainy ass cold day,
05:33so I didn't even need all that,
05:34we're at the starting line,
05:35I have to go to the bathroom real bad,
05:37I'm like, coach shit, I gotta go to the bathroom,
05:39she's like, finish the race, the faster you run,
05:41the faster you can go to the bathroom,
05:43baby, that was a lot, by the time that race was finished,
05:46I peed my pants so bad, and I had on navy blue spandex,
05:51you could see the pee marks all the way from my ankles,
05:55a big round pee spot up to my waist,
05:57and it was an away match,
05:59so everybody saw me crossing the finish line,
06:02pee everywhere, super embarrassing,
06:05but it makes a good story to tell.
06:07I'm going out to speak to a crowd, a real estate crowd,
06:10and I'm walking, I have my cool little vibe walk with me,
06:16and I'm checking myself out,
06:18and I trip over the cord in front of about 2,500 agents
06:22that are there to hear me speak,
06:24here I go tumbling, I tore down the mic
06:27that was trailing me in the back,
06:29that was pretty, pretty embarrassing on my part,
06:32but I'm the type of guy that turns something like that
06:36into a positive, I jump up, I laugh, they laugh,
06:39and the show goes on like nothing happened,
06:42but in that moment, if I was white,
06:45my face probably would have been red.
06:47I was out for a run, and I had to use the bathroom,
06:51it was just me walking into the woods,
06:53and I took care of my business,
06:55and I grabbed for what one uses to tidy oneself
07:00when in nature, which was a leaf,
07:02little did I know that said leaf was a poison ivy leaf,
07:06and that's embarrassing in its own right, just terrible,
07:09but then when I went to the doctor with my mom,
07:12she made me tell this poor nurse
07:15exactly how I got poison ivy,
07:18I had it fully figured out,
07:20the nurse was bringing me the steroids,
07:22and my mom keeps going, tell her how it happened,
07:25tell her, until I finally told her,
07:28like half mumbling what happened,
07:30and this poor nurse is held hostage by this disgusting story,
07:34so that moment is probably
07:35the most embarrassing I can think of.
07:37Okay, so one time I had an opportunity to do a presentation,
07:40we'll sum it up with that,
07:42and I was sick the weekend before
07:45that I was supposed to give it,
07:46and so you know how you get brain fog
07:48whenever you're a little bit sick,
07:50and so I was making a presentation,
07:51I said, I will make a PowerPoint,
07:52because anybody can follow a PowerPoint,
07:54and I was typing out this PowerPoint
07:56so that even if I was sick, I'd be able to get through it,
07:58and so I made this PowerPoint,
07:59I get up to do the presentation,
08:01still kind of brain fog,
08:03I'm going through the presentation,
08:04and a word pops up on the screen
08:06that I have typed out in all caps,
08:08and I look at that word,
08:10and I said, I misspelled that word,
08:12and so I was like, oh, let me like crack a joke about it,
08:16and so I purposefully mispronounced this word
08:20being funny and kind of laughed about it.
08:22To my horror, I then look back down
08:24and realize I had spelled the word correctly,
08:27and it looked like I couldn't even say my own word
08:30that I had put on the presentation,
08:32and because I was just so out of it,
08:34I just flipped to the next slide,
08:35and I know the audience had to have been like,
08:37what is up with this guy?
08:39What is he even saying?
08:40It is this weird combination of me mispronouncing words,
08:43getting weirdly silent, and then moving on.
08:45I still look back and it's traumatizing.
08:49Israelites.
08:50So my senior year of college,
08:52I took this half-credit dance class,
08:54and I guess I was like in the class,
08:58and doing one of the choreographies,
09:00and this underwear rolled out of my pants,
09:04like a dirty underwear,
09:06and at first I was like, what the is that?
09:08I was like, oh my God, that's mine, and I picked it up.
09:10I think a couple of other people saw it,
09:12but it was just really funny.
09:14I think the more embarrassing thing
09:15was that I'm really bad at following choreography.
09:18You see, I have a very subtle scar here,
09:22and that happened because I was ice skating,
09:24and not just any ice skating.
09:26I was ice skating on a first date in a high school
09:31with a guy who thought, let's take the klutz on ice,
09:33why not?
09:34So we're going around the ring,
09:36and I go splat, come up.
09:39I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, keep going, keep going.
09:41We make it two more laps until someone else taps me
09:45and says, excuse me, ma'am,
09:46you're dripping blood on the ice,
09:48you need to leave because it's a house concert.
09:50So I go to the bathroom, slap on a Band-Aid,
09:53and of course we're in like 10th grade,
09:55so I have to call my dad.
09:56He looked at it and said, you're going home,
09:58you missy?
09:59ER.
10:00And I left my date to go get stitches
10:03from a wonderful excursion.
10:05We did have a second date.
10:07Young romance is a wild thing.
10:09Never know where it's gonna go.
10:10I was probably 22,
10:12and it's the first time I wore a tampon,
10:16and I did not take the barrel out.
10:19I sucked it up, and I've been walking,
10:22and I was like, this feels weird.
10:24So I went back to the restroom,
10:26and then the person next to me was like, hey.
10:29I was like, ugh, I don't know if I'm wearing this right.
10:31And the nurse was like, oh, okay,
10:34I'll give you another one, and I'll guide you through it.
10:36She told me I had to take the barrel out.
10:40I was mortified because this was at work,
10:42so it's disgusting and embarrassing at the same time.
10:46Until I was well into my adult years,
10:48I thought my farts didn't smell.
10:52I can never smell farts,
10:54and so I would go through the stores and just pass gas,
10:57and I'm thinking nobody can smell it.
10:59It wasn't until my husband's like, dude, what is that?
11:02I'm like, you can smell that?
11:04When I was 11 years old,
11:06I was a Nevada Ballet Theater scholar.
11:09I did ballet, and I was one of the only guys in my class,
11:12so I had to pick a girl up.
11:15And I wasn't this big when I was 11 years old.
11:18I was this scrawny, though,
11:20so I had to pick someone up and flip her around like that.
11:23She did no work.
11:25I'm sorry if you're watching this,
11:26but she dropped straight on her head.
11:30It was an entire class of girls.
11:32Everybody was looking at me.
11:33The instructor was Russian.
11:35It was a middle-aged Russian woman, short hair.
11:38She told me to get out.
11:40I was petrified, horrified.
11:42I pooped my pants.
11:44It was horrible.
11:45I remember one day, like, I woke up.
11:47I felt so confident.
11:48I wore a cute little outfit.
11:50I was, like, strutting down the street,
11:52like, feeling my oats, feeling myself.
11:54It wasn't until a couple of blocks into my walk
11:57that a man came and he tapped me on my shoulder,
11:59and I just, like, I, like, scoffed.
12:01I'm like, ugh, what does this man want from me, you know?
12:03God, can't a woman just walk alone in the streets?
12:06And he just, like, stopped me to inform me
12:09that my dress was, like, tucked into my underwear,
12:11and I had been walking for blocks
12:14with just my underwear out,
12:15like, my ass showing for the world for free.
12:18And it's just, I think that's, like,
12:19the most embarrassing moment I can think of.
12:21I was living with my mom in Bombay,
12:24and I went to Hyderabad to attend a friend's wedding.
12:29At that time, I had no place to stay,
12:32so I called up one of my friends
12:33who's working at one of the, what do you call it,
12:37nightclubs.
12:38So, you know, he told me to come to the nightclub
12:41so we can go to his place once he's done with his shift.
12:44During that time, because I had a long journey,
12:47a train ride for almost 24 hours,
12:50so I thought I'm gonna use the men's restroom.
12:54And little did I know back then
12:56that men's restroom is only to, you know,
13:00number one and number two,
13:01but I also showered in the restroom.
13:03And the people working in the nightclub
13:08complained to the manager,
13:11and then who yelled at my friend,
13:13and my friend was so embarrassed, like,
13:15how can you freaking shower in the restroom?
13:17I didn't know.
13:18I thought restrooms are meant to shower.
13:20I didn't see, you know, a shower there,
13:23so I took the hose and, you know,
13:26in India, in bathrooms,
13:27you have the, you know, the hose to clean your,
13:30you know, after you're done with your business.
13:32So I used that to clean myself.
13:34There was water everywhere.
13:36The most freaking embarrassing moment in my life.
13:39Ah, you know, still now it makes me laugh
13:42when I think about it.
13:43We used to have this really old rickety deck
13:45in my backyard, and my brother's bike was on it.
13:49And I decided to build a makeshift ramp
13:51with like one plank off of the deck
13:55and ride the bike down the deck.
13:56And as soon as I went onto the makeshift ramp,
14:00it fell, I flipped over,
14:02the handlebars stabbed me so hard in the gut.
14:05I said, ah, and everybody was laughing.
14:08I mean, I was crying laughing.
14:09I was like in the between because I knew it was funny
14:11and I didn't want people to know that I was hurt.
14:12So I was like, like I was crying laughing,
14:16but to this day is something I'm constantly reminded of.
14:20I was on desk duty at Morehouse College in my dorm
14:25and I was signing people in and I'm working on my MacBook
14:29and people come in and out of the dorm all the time.
14:33And I'm studying, then unbeknownst to me,
14:37somebody walks in and snatches my MacBook off the desk
14:43and sprints out.
14:44And I was so in shock that I ran to the door too late
14:49and they got away.
14:49It was a local, but it was so embarrassing,
14:53like having to call home and tell that story
14:56and then even telling guys on that floor,
14:59like, bro, somebody just stole my laptop.
15:01What do you mean somebody just stole your laptop
15:03and ran away?
15:04So I felt completely dumb.
15:07I felt weak.
15:08Like you're a young man,
15:10you should be able to catch this guy.
15:12But that's probably one of the most embarrassing stories
15:16I can recall.
15:18When I was in kindergarten, actually, I was waiting.
15:23We were like playing around and like,
15:24I had to pee really bad and my bladder was full.
15:27And so we had this one little bathroom in our classroom
15:30and I thought this boy Caleb was in there
15:33and I didn't see him come out at all.
15:35And so I'm like, it's, I'm on my little duty
15:37cleaning the tables and stuff, but it was my day.
15:40And I'm like, Caleb, it's sure taking a long time
15:42in the bathroom.
15:43I mean, I need to go.
15:44And so he didn't, he never, like time had elapsed.
15:47And I absolutely peed on myself in that moment.
15:51It was the most humiliating thing I've ever done
15:54in my whole life.
15:55And it just went everywhere.
15:57You could just see the ring of pee slowly spanning out
16:02as a classroom of kindergarteners, you know,
16:04made fun of me.
16:05I never forgot that moment.
16:06It's so embarrassing.
16:10I don't know.
16:11I don't know.
16:12I don't know.
16:13I don't know.
16:14I don't know.
16:14I don't know.
16:15I don't know.
16:16I don't know.
16:17I don't know.
16:18I don't know.
16:19I don't know.
16:19I don't know.
16:20I don't know.
16:21I don't know.
16:22I don't know.
16:23I don't know.
16:24I don't know.
16:25I don't know.
16:25I don't know.
16:26I don't know.
16:27I don't know.
16:28I don't know.
16:29I don't know.
16:30I don't know.
16:30I don't know.
16:31I don't know.
16:32I don't know.
16:33I don't know.
16:34I don't know.
16:35I don't know.
16:35I don't know.
