I’ve just done one of the @Scout shouts for when you remember something embarrassing you’ve done. My shout is more of a scrunch up my face and do a Marge Simpson growl. The embarrassing thing in question was when I went to visit my friend from college at university, went on a night out with him and 100% his university friends I hadn’t met before, thought in conversation they were laughing at John Oliver so I did what I thought was a hilarious John Oliver impression and everybody looked at me like I was fucked up. Turns out I’d misheard and they were talking about a footballperson who is foreign, none of them knew who John Oliver was and it appeared to them I was doing a really absurdly inaccurate racist impersonation.
It’s been about 7 years and the excruciating memory is still wrecking my life.
