• From cowboy sing-a-longs to being ambushed at lunchtime, the Planet Dolan crew re-enact
some of the best true stories from our subreddit about the most embarrassing thing our parents
have ever done.
I’m Nixxiom and today I’ll be your narrator.
Number 10 was submitted by Mote-of-Lobross Pringle
When Pringle was 12, his dad took him to a restaurant called ‘The Magic Time Machine’.
It was this weird goofy restaurant, which had different themes such as ‘Muppets’,
‘Star Wars’, and superheroes.
Even the wait staff would dress up in costumes.
Pringle had to use the restroom, but couldn't find it anywhere, so he asked his dad if he
knew.
He gave Pringle a knowing smirk and told him to ask one of the wait staff, so he did...
Big mistake.
Pringle asked a waitress dressed as Princess Leia, who shouted in reply, "WE GOT SOMEONE
WHO NEEDS TO PEE!!!" and she pointed him to the restroom and a bunch of the wait staff
formed a conga line behind him as he headed there.
Number 9 was submitted by Super_Nova_Nebula Ramona
Ramona was at the store with her mom and they were finishing up, when she remembered she
needed some pads.
Ramona told her mom and they headed to the women's hygiene products aisle.
Ramona then needed to use the bathroom, so she started to walk further down the aisle,
until her mom started screaming from the other end, " SWEET HEART!!
LARGE AND CUSHIONY PADS OR SMALL AND FLEXIBLE PADS?!"
Everyone in the aisle and those passing by stared at them, and began laughing.
Ramona couldn't look at her mom for the rest of the day and didn't talk to her for a week.
Number 8 was submitted by ThePigThatCriedRii Spinalpalm
Spinalpalm was on a cruise ship in the Galapagos and the staff and tourists were having a party.
After a cheesy play, they played some music and people were dancing.
Spinalpalm then saw his mom dancing with a pirate wearing an eye patch.
They were doing the stupidest dance he had ever seen.
She then yelled for him and his little brother to come and dance with her.
Unfortunately, there was a really cute girl on the boat.
Spinalpalm only got up and danced because he didn't want the girl to think he was a
jerk.
Number 7 was submitted by Elk810 Doopie
When Doopie was in high school her friend’s parents showed up to her school to put on
a cowboy theatre show.
It was just those two in the show, and the whole school had to watch.
They both dressed like cowboy characters and sang a bunch of the corniest, most juvenile
cowboy songs ever in front of the all the students and teachers.
The kids were silent the whole time.
Doopie could see pre-schoolers being entertained by the show, but she couldn't understand why
someone though it was a good idea for high school students?
She was just glad it wasn’t her parents.
Number 6 was submitted by FloRidaCartoon21 Sweetcommando
Sweetcommando was being really bad at home one day so his parents decided to devise some
cruel and unusual punishment.
At school that day, during lunch, his parents showed up dressed in really weird clothing:
His mom was in a tiny dress and was wearing weird boots; his dad was wearing short shorts
with a tucked in tank top.
They sat next to him and talked really loudly and everyone in the cafeteria looked at them.
People laughed at Sweetcommando until eventually he ran in to the bathroom and stayed there
until lunch was over.
Number 5 was submitted by Dkmainman Ghost Toast
Ghost Toast was in 5th grade, and at the time, the "Happy" dance was everywhere.
Nobody in the school liked it except some of the girls.
One day, on their annual Friday assembly, the principal announced that they had exceeded
a fundraiser goal by 375%.
Because of this, about 5 moms ran to the front of the school.
Ghost Toast was suddenly paralysed.
Four of the moms nobody knew but his mom, who helped in the art room, ran up to the
front with them.
The music played, and she started dancing the “Happy” dance.
It was terrible.
The other kids were laughing, whispering, jeering…
Ghost Toast was in shock.
After that assembly, he was picked on for the rest of the year.
Number 4 was submitted by squidbear_eyeballs Grgak
On Halloween, when Grgak was thirteen, his mom picked him up from school like she did
everyday, except this time she was dressed up as a crazy cat lady.
She had on pink paw print pyjamas, fuzzy slippers with cat faces on them, pink cat-eye glasses,
curlers in her hair, and was carrying a bunch of plush cats.
She made a big deal of showing everyone her costume and by the time they left Grgak wanted
to die.
His friends wouldn't let him forget it either.
Number 3 was submitted by Was2Dog Tolop
One day Tolop was playing Call of Duty online with his friends.
He hit a trick shot and started screaming in celebration.
It was the first trick shot he hit online.
His dad heard the screaming and came upstairs to check on Tolop.
His dad came to his room and said, "Oh you’re just playing your little “shooty” game,
make sure to get off soon its almost your bedtime.
Love you, buddy."
Tolop was wearing a headset so all his friends could hear what his dad was saying.
A day doesn’t go by without his friends reminding him.
Number 2 was submitted by lil_pyrp0830 Civil Spider
When Civil Spider was a kid his mom would take pictures of him every day.
What he didn’t know was that his mom would post them on her Facebook with the most cringe
worthy, embarrassing captions ever.
When he got a Facebook he was tagged on all of the pictures so all his friends could see,
including the girl he had a crush on.
One day his mom took a picture of him and this girl talking to each other and she posted
the picture with the caption: "my little baby growing up, talking to the love of his life."
Civil Spider was made fun of for a year after, and he deleted all his social media accounts.
His crush never talked to him after that either.
Number 1 – What’s the most embarrassing thing my parents have ever done?
One thing that always embarrassed me was my father had this tendency to always refer to
me in third person when we were out in public.
So, for example, if we were going to the movies together, the cashier would ask: “How many?”
and my father would reply “Oh, it’s just me and Nixxiom today going to see this movie.”
Or if we went out to eat together he would say something like “Oh, can me and Nixxiom
get some bread as an appetizer to start?”
It was always really weird and embarrassing just having him throw my name out to everyone
in public like that; I didn’t like it.
