Post Moronic Things You've Done to Make Me Feel Better About What I Did

This thread has already gone places. It has lapped the world 10 times. That is the greatness that is this thread.
 
True story.

I was in a high school (for my job) and I was presenting to a class. For whatever reason the kids started talking about the grossest things they've ever eaten in their life. One kid said, "I ate a cricket." I said, "Mmm protein." Then I remembered about the guy who won the bug eating contest last year. If you don't know what I'm talking about, some guy won a **** roach eating contest and a few hours later died from eating them. Being the bright guy that I am (in front of the teacher, a student teacher, and a class of about 35 high school kids) I was going to share that story with them. The only problem is I had a little slippage of tongue. I said, "Hey, did you guys hear about the guy who won the **** eating contest?" The entire class and the teachers laughed for like 5 minutes. I laughed too. There was nothing I could do to take it back so I just owned it and said, "Yeah, I just said that. What I meant to say was...."

It was really awkward, but I got invited to go back.

While I never knowingly ate a cockroach, there was a time on my mission I pulled a dead one out of my food and just kept eating it. Made my native companion vomit.

I bet you were pissed that someone dethroned you at the contest -- you know, since you've been the defending champion for eight years strai... er, in a row.
 
I errant drunk texted my brother's wife about how (s)he wanted all 30 inches of my [shotgun] barrel. I got the Mormon girl version of wtf back and immediately called my brother to apologize profusely about the mishap.
