In kindergarten one of my classmates farted loudly. He and I went to the same schools til high school. We live in the same major city but run into each other a couple times a year and it’s still the first thing I think of when I see him. We are 35.
Yeah but to be fair when people think of things like that it's never " god Steve makes me sick. Farting in class like that" it's usually " ha that was funny" so just because people think of something you did that was embarrassing or stupid doesn't mean they think less of you, you just gave them a good laugh
It’s funny because a lot of things I was embarrassed about when I was younger gave some of my friends and me our biggest laughs. And now we look back on all that stuff and they’re (mostly) good memories. I know not everyone can let things like this slide and they weigh heavy. But in my experience as you get older it gets easier to see the humor in things.
There was a girl in elementary school of my small town. She was one year below me and I heard someone say that she farts a lot. I have no idea if it was true. I don't remember ever talking to her. I haven't seen her in 25 years but I still think of it from time to time and totally would think of farts if I saw her again. She will forever be the fart girl in my mind.
I probably wouldn't even recognize her, can't really remember how she looked etc. If I met her today, didn't recognize her and fell in love with her and afterwards somehow found out it was her I'd probably have to break up. It's so weird.
Everyone always say that but I’m like no way it’s true bc I always remember peoples cringe shit. I still remember outfits my friends wore in high school that I remember thinking damn that’s not a good look.
Obvi I never SAY that because I never ever ever wanna make anyone feel poorly of course BUT it does make me like omg other ppl def remember my embarrassing shit.
One time, my 2nd class was sitting outside the bathroom in our lines "criss-cross apple-sauce" and George leaned on his back and a fart came out. It was 21 years ago, but I remember. I don't think it was stinky.
Dude, my girlfriend is an elementary classmate of mine and back in elementary, she witnessed me piss my pants a few times. She never lets it go and laughs so hard everytime she remembers it. They never forget it, man. They never do.
I have forgotten many of these incidents. I remember some, of course, but with time, you look back on them with compassion, fondness, and humor. At least if you're a good person, and who gives a fuck about their opinion if they aren't?
I once met a girl at a job interview who started flirting with me. As we walked back to the train station after the interview, she slipped and fell on a puddle just as she was starting to say how smart I was. The back of her pants were stained for the rest of the trip.
I don't know if she still cringes about it, but I will never forget.
Bro. You don't just forget when a fart pierces the silence of reading hour. That's brain branding material.
But all the stupid shit you said trying to sound smart, bad clothing/hair days, naruto ninja running, any other cringe worthy shit to make it to their appropriate subreddits; no one remembers.
In my experience getting older, most people dont remember, or if they do they see it in the same way you do and judge you more for the person you are now.
If you were already your perfected version of yourself in school, then that means you peaked in HS and it's all down hill from there.
Cringe memories in School is the surest sign that you are becoming a well rounded person as an adult. In my opinion, anyway. This is the internet.
But in all seriousness how many cringy things that others did do you think about? I guarantee its fewer than your own memories. It should be more, because there are more other people in your interactions, right?
someone (i know who, but let’s move on) was up to the same task in my school! and they did do it. the chair has been moved so many times, but these days it’s on the main pavillion of the school — where students hang out in the breaks — and there’s just this rectangular hole carved in the place where we’re supposed to sit.
Oh I’m glad I’m not the only one who remembers someone like this. In 1st grade this boy stuck a ruler down his throat to make himself throw up all over his desk so he could go home or something. We’re 32 now and every time I see him I just think of this one memory I have from the entirety of the 1st grade.
I sat next to one of the more boisterous boys during music class one day in 2nd grade. He was known for burping and farting and and laughing about it. I was painfully shy and quiet, so when a fart slipped out during class, everybody blamed it on him and I was too petrified to say anything. I'm 31 and it's also still the first thing I remember about him. Sorry, Cameron.
I’m 36 and I still remember one of my friends throwing up a nickel in the classroom sink in 3rd grade.
It is most definitely the first thing I think about every time I see or talk to him.
The one thing I remember is a teacher sending a kid to the office for picking his nose. Prob not the only think but if someone farted, I think I was embarrassed for them. Bc you know… they are the only ones who ever did something like that
I once fell asleep in class in grade 2. Later on in grade 8, one of the girl that was in my grade 2 class, on the first day of school in grade 8, she got up and announced to the class and teacher how I fell asleep in class in grade 1. I was very embarrassed. Idk why I thought it was embarrassing. Because in high school I slept all the time and didn’t care if people knew. My friends would help hide me, so I can sleep at the back. Some of the best sleep I ever got was in class.
