    What's your worst case of Bad Timing

    Right, I was just wondering what everyones worst/funniest case of bad timing has been. I'll explain how i mean by telling you what happened to me last night.

    It was about 2-3am i was at home, well in the toilet to be more precise which also happens to be the only room in the house (apart from the airing cupboard) that doesn't have a window in it, so no natural light. I was sat in there doing, what you do when you sit in there (sorry, that's the most pleasant i've been able to make it sound). Anyway, i finish my business and start to stand up to continue with the next step of the operation. At that exact moment we have a powercut and all the electricity goes out which includes the lights of course. I was not impressed in the slightest. Stood there in pitch black, wondering where the toilet roll is (as we have the rolls loose, wish they were on a holder now) whilst needing a clean up on aisle 2. Absolutely great!

    As you can see i'd class the power cut coming at a severely bad time.

    Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar case of bad timing too that might make us all laugh

    p.s. sorry, i did try to keep it as least disgusting as possible

    The following was vindicated by illness, but still left me highly embarassed. During my student days spent my first year renting a room in a family's house. Went down with some kind of bug, spent a couple of days in bed. Finally my body started to get rid of all the crap by tthe worst projectile vomiting i've ever suffered. Absolutely no control. Complete reflex action. My throat would open and it would just shoot out. On one of these occasions my landlady decided to check on my condition and instead of getting it in the bowl i somehow managed to shoot it all over her. Still dont know how and still shudder now about how embarassed i was and how much i apologised.

    On a similair theme to PrivatePyle but i'd call this good timing. After a night out in a strange town a group of us had found a place to sleep at somebody's house. Sprawled on chairs, sofas, floor etc. I was in a chair and (dont know how) woke up to see a person with his old chap out and pointing at my face. I jumped out of the chair and just missed being urinated on. Wasn't a malicious thing, seemed this guy suffered from sleepwalking when drunk and didn't even realise he was doing it. I was just grateful he missed.
