mid-chew into a fast food burger hitting something hard... and deciding to swallow anyway.

pissing in a public urinal and having some of the splashback hit your hands

getting a semi while making out in public and then walking around all awkwardly hobbling to hide it

reaching into a kitchen drawer to grab something and feeling that sharp nick/slice as you grab a knife blade and cut yourself

dry hand skin as you tie a silk tie

true story - skipping last period in high school, getting high and then remembering suddenly a random doctor's appointment booked for a couple of hours later.

Calling someone you really don't want to speak to expecting to get away just leaving a voicemail and then thy pick up... "Oh, hey..."

That's your knife's way of telling you to keep it somewhere else.

Best way to avoid this: check your own voicemail and listen to the options. There's one for sending another voicemail to someone else. It doesn't cause their phone to ring. You can really manipulate this into: "Oh hey we're leaving in 5 minutes guess you aren't there" voicemails to ditch someone who you don't want to tag along.

Not paying attention in traffic; stopping short right before you rear-end the vehicle in front of you.

Related: Getting a semi on the subway right before getting to your stop. Used to happen to me all the time when I was younger, and it was always so awkward trying to run off as quickly as possible without anyone noticing my pants.

Going into an empty public restroom and smelling the worst nuclear dump ever, holding your breath as best you can while you take a piss despite having to breathe through your mouth just a little, so you can curse the unknown person who did this to you.

Then when you're finished, you're eagerly anticipating that wonderful fresh, non-toxic air when you step outside only to open the door and see someone else going in as you leave. Then knowing that they think it was you while they hold their breath and curse you.

this happens in elevators a frequently. you get into an elevator, lingering putrid flatulence greets you inside... you start to contemplate the horror of having to deal with people thinking you're the guilty party upon entering or your exiting.

People in the passing lane that don't pass, and drive neck and neck with person in front of you, preventinging you from getting to your shameful job on time
