Today, I met an important figure in my line of work who also happens to know my dad, Alan. Upon meeting said person, I let my social anxiety get the best of me and I greeted him by saying, "Hi! I'm your Alan!" FML

I hope you're good at loosening and tightening hex-head bolts!

Almost everyone has been there at some point, OP! We tend to mess up more when nervous! <3

Oh, you never had your own personal Alan? You realize that they sell a six pack of Alans at Walmart for $15.99. Unless you're really strapped for cash, then you can get the six pack of Carls for $8.50.

I get tongue tied all the time because my brain is three words ahead of my mouth.
My usual "save" is to follow up with "I love lamp!"

Hopefully the person has a sense of humor about it (I'm sure it was pretty funny).

Pretty sure we've all been there at some point. All you can do is laugh and make fun of yourself.
