The Sitch: Youโve fallen face-first on the ground in front of your friends.
The Fix: Uh oh! You might be face-first on the ground but take a second to breathe
and compose yourself. You must remember that people fall over all the time and the
only way to handle this embarrassing situation is to slowly get up, dust yourself off
and have a laugh. A joke like, โGee! That was a quick trip! Sorry I didnโt send any
postcardsโ will go down well and will show people youโre able to see the bright side
of things!
The Sitch: Youโve just spilled a drink all over your Mum's posh friend.
The Fix: Itโs okay! Breathe! The first thing you should do is tell them how sorry
you are because you really didnโt intend for it to happen. Calmly offer to help clean their clothes, grab them some tissues and maybe a damp cloth. Remember, accidents happen and if you've apologised and tried to help, you're in the clear. Voila! Sitch handled.
The Sitch: Youโve accidentally let one rip, and uh, itโs a little louder than you
expected.
The Fix: Farting is totally natural but itโs still really gross! The best you can hope for
is a SBD (silent but deadly) but if that doesnโt work in your favour, weโve listed a few
ways to react to this embarrassing sitch:
- Blame it on the seating by saying something like, โWow! These leather seats
sure are noisy!โ Just make sure you arenโt standing up or sitting on a wooden
floor. - Pretend to be so grossed out so that no one will guess it was you. โOMTG do
you smell that? That is SO gross! Who would do that?โ - Blame it on the person nearest to you or on your pet. โIt was the dogโ is a
great line that will get you out of most things.
