We've all had them, that
moment when it becomes too late to take something back or reverse time to stop
something that had happened. The timing
seems to be perfect but not in your favor.
No matter what the episode is, in one way or another we've all stood at
the front of the firing line. Our faces
turn red, we feel our ears get hot, our stomach does flips and we get a little
nervous. I'm talking about that
embarrassing event that never happens when we're alone or no one is online that
we know. I roamed Second Life polling
crowds of people to see what their most embarrassing moments were. I enjoyed hearing them so I figured why not
share with the readers of the SL Enquirer.
Elsie W:
My most embarrassing
moment would have to be when I went to buy a house with friends. I happened to
see one off in the distance. After
contemplating all the houses around me, I went to check out the one in the
distance I had seen. I proceeded to
teleport my friends in, upon which I noticed it was furnished and some other
people inside. I then explained out loud what I was intending to do, what I
would change, what was wrong with the colour scheme. After I had chatted
endlessly and without limits for a while I found out it was a private house and
the other people who I thought were potential buyers were in fact the
owners. Oops!
Kaijah C:
I had just bought a new
skin. I was super excited to put it on
and flaunt around in my new look! After
the skin was on, I put on my cool zipper open jeans and went shopping for
another hour. So there I was, painting
the town in my new-found skin and favorite outfit, feeling like I was on top of
the world! Then I cammed to look around
at some stuff and happen to catch a glimpse of the front of my avatar, i was
like what is that? To my surprise, my privates had been hanging out for all to
see! Talk about busting my bubble.
Black W:
My most embarrassing
moment in Second Life is when I was talking with someone and they seemed really
familiar. I just couldn't put my finger
on it. Maybe I had spoken with them at
another period in our SL lives. We
chatted for quite a while, getting to know each other better. All of a sudden, my phone rings. That was my friend on the phone. As it turns out, I did in fact know him the
friend was calling to inform me that I was talking to her husband in SL. It wasn't my fault but I couldn't help but
apologize to her.
Mr R:
I was in the middle of a
group event that I couldn't leave and my girlfriend popped on. She started chatting me up. Things got a little hot and heavy. I was going back and forth between the group
chat and the private IM with my girlfriend.
I typed in this really hot comment about what I wanted her to do with
her mouth and the moment I pressed the ENTER key I realized that I had just
send that comment to the group I was in, instead of as a private IM to my
girlfriend.
Lady L:
I was spamming groups and
land chat, trying to sell some parcels I had.
I teleported to a sandbox to work on a prim that would help me announce
my posts. A few minutes after I landed,
an IM popped up and a guy asked how much.
I said "For you, only $1536!"
He asked for how long? I said
"$1536 and you own." I quickly
realized I had teleported to a BDSM sandbox and he was not at all interested in
my land, he wanted to buy me to be his slave.
That's what I call sending someone an IM at the perfect time.
