I have two embarrassing stories that I'm known for.

My name is spelt weirdly but pronounced differently by some people (it's French but people Americanize the pronunciation). I'm not going to say what it is since its rare and I may get recognised on here which I don't want.

So a teacher asked me "how do you pronounce your name?" I told him I don't care (everyone pronounces it wrong anyway).

He was adamant that I announce how to pronounce my name.

I intended to say "my friends call me (name with the "Elle"/Americanization) but my family calls me (my name)" but accidentally said "my friends call me (Elle/Americanized) but my family call me (Elle/ Americanized)." People made fun of me for years.

On an expedition, we were playing truth or dare around the campfire (big hiking trip, around 30 or so people). When I was asked, I picked truth and the question was "have you ever 'flicked the bean'?" ("Flicked the bean" means masturbating). I didn't know what to say because I'm a prude and a girl helped me out and said "oh, everyone does" and I agreed and said "yeah, everyone does it once." I have never really lived that one down. People still go up to me and repeat the phrase.
