When you waved at someone who wasn’t the person you thought they were
“Oh look, there’s Aisling… HIYA AISLING” *waves*
Nope, that’s not Aisling. That’s a stranger. Pretend you were fixing your hair. Nobody will notice a thing.

That one time you woke yourself up with a fart
It’s okay if you’re alone, but remember that one time you jolted awake to find your significant other staring at you in horror over the top of their book?
Yes, that time.

All of those times you tripped up in public
Anytime, anywhere, anyhow this happens, you will NEVER be able to make it ok.
Stop fantasising about people thinking it was cute when you fell, or how funny your recovery was, you’re not Jennifer Lawrence and you never will be.

That time you put your iPod on shuffle at a supercool party and Michael Bublé’s Crooning Classics came on
Not that there’s another wrong with Michael Bublé’s Crooning Classics, just not at a supercool party when you were hoping for Jay Z or Alt J.

All of those times you tried to get out of the lift on the wrong floor
If there’s one thing worse than having to share a lift with a stranger, it’s making a move to get out when it’s not your floor, and having to shuffle back in muttering to yourself.

That time you thought it was safe to ‘let go’ in the office bathrooms, but it wasn’t
Somebody just HAD to walk in at the wrong time, didn’t they?
