Innocuous things that make you irrationally embarrassed

Trader joe's European style yoghurt is pretty good and not at all sweet. It tastes like yoghurt should in my book.

Yes, that was actually our go-to brand when we did more shopping at Trader Joes, we just never make it there now.

damn it, Je55e, I thought I'd removed that picture of your throat scabs from my memory but it just came back

Yeah me too. I don't think I'll ever forget it. Looked like a rotten stuffed olive!

The throat olive of a CHAMPION.

adams olive

now I'm embarrassed all over again

I won't post a picture, but I am taking requests for emailed pics of my scabby goozle.

nah, I'll stick with the one where you're mugging next to a raccoon

I only posted that b/c I wanted to say "scabby goozle."

oh, we know

people proselytizing on street corners/public places make me irrationally embarrassed — not for myself but for them — in some a sympathetic "stop drawing so much attention to yourself!" kind of way. i'm not sure if it's totally innocuous.

some

ppl begging celebrities/enormous corporations/really anyone to follow them on social media

group sing-alongs - mostly stuff like happy birthday etc in smaller groups. but also hymns, fight songs, etc.

just purchased passion-fruit chobani at the grocery store, but i don't think i'm ready to eat it yet

haaaaaaaa

it is so delicious, that's the worst part
lately i have been buying the big containers of plain yog and adding my own flavors and it's turning out pretty well. rose petal jam + lemon curd was way better than any commercially purchased yogurt INCLUDING passion fruit chobani

god even writing that sentence i felt embarrassed (ashamed more like) for myself
enjoy your yogurt

weddings and wedding photography

speaking of which, "passion fruit"

although I am not entirely convinced that there actually exists such a fruit

you can call it maracuyá if you want

or lilikoi -- my daughter got me a jar of lililoi jam for Christmas from an Etsy seller from Hawaii, gooood stuff.

Can't do the seeds in that yoghurt, they creep me out

the phrase 'big ideas'

An ex-friend of mine used to use that to imply someone was overweight. "he's got big ideas..."

word to dwell.com for not falling into that

Yeah, they could've gone for "Big Spaces in Small Places," and I wouldn't have minded.

Schumer is calling on the diplomat, along with the head of the International Olympic Committee, to permit a delivery of Chobani Greek Yogurt to get into Sochi so the U.S. athletes can enjoy it.

It's their secret weapon, they grease their skis with Chobani to help them go faster.

@DoucheyCNNJourno The "greek yogurt" at this hotel sucks!

soon chobani will just be the official sponsor of the olympics and we've to start calling them the chobani bowl and that's when we'll be certain that the end is nigh

chobani instead of...oil?

why didn't we think of it before

learned english too good, know all kinds of words that aren't 'chobani'

@allyzay
Genuinely just emailed the cafeteria downstairs at work to ask them why they don't have Fage 2% and only have Fage 0% so kill me now.

Haaaah

imagining a deep-fryer full of bubbling chobani

would eat without embarrassment

"Yeah, I filled it up with Chobani instead of oil and it just died by the side of the road. I can't figure it out."

hahahahha!

goddamn yogurt

When a fictional character is shown to be a tech expert or nerd by spouting a bunch of jargon.

Especially when the "jargon" is pretty commonplace, like "ethernet" or "20 gigabyte solid state hard drive."

But what makes me cringe to death is when another character responds to the fairly accessible not-really-jargon with, "OK now in English, please?"

shopping for anything at petsmart, or any pet-focused retailer
i just want to get my minimal stuff and leave in peace, i don't want to "spoil my pet/animal child" or have a pet stuff buying experience. i just want to get in and out and be completely invisible
this should be easy but i can't escape without at least a moment of pure shame/embarrassment at myself as i browse or even lay eyes on a brett michaels dog gear standee

dogs ≠ cats, but

i still order some pet stuff online but am always haunted by I Was a Warehouse Wage Slave

all the local ones have cats from local animal rescue places

the nice locally-owned pet store even has a giant cat environment as part of a branch of the Animal Rescue League they host. it's a good scam, you go in expecting to buy a little food and you leave with double the food and another cat.

A petstore in our old neighborhood had a store parrot that hung out by the register. It was actually kind of gross because the owner was halfassed about cleaning up after it.

this store has one of those, too! he's cranky.
