Today, I made a speech in front of my entire graduating class and their families, despite my fear of public speaking. It seemed to go well and I got a big round of applause at the end. Then I panicked and instead of waving, I lifted my arm straight out in a Hitler salute. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it was my high school graduation. Because our school colors were red, black and white, and our principal looked somewhat like Hitler, the senior class prank was to salute him when he finished his speech. I was the only one. FML
Today, we were having a school prize giving. I heard my name called and I walked up to the stage waving and smiling, feeling rather proud of myself. I stood by the microphone and started my acceptance speech, only to be tapped on the shoulder by the girl they'd actually called up. FML
Today, in an attempt to face my phobia of public speaking, I accepted an offer to read to a group of elementary school students. It went well, until I reached a rather funny part in the book and completely lost my composure with uncontrollable laughter. I don't think I'll be asked to come back. FML
Today, at university, I worked up the courage to speak up in a lecture hall of 200 people. I raised my hand, made my point, and felt pretty good until the professor said, “That’s exactly what I said like five minutes ago.” Half the room turned to look at me like I'd just woken up from a nap mid-class. Which I had. FML
Today, I had to give presentation at work, for which I'd extensively prepared. However, as soon as I started speaking, I had a sudden panic attack and forgot everything I'd rehearsed. I stumbled through the presentation, feeling the embarrassment steadily grow in front of my colleagues. I almost passed out. FML
Today, while giving speech in class, I choked on my own spit and had a coughing fit while everyone stared at me intently. When I finally regained my composure, my teacher told me my time was up and to sit down. I hadn't even got finished the first paragraph. FML
Today, I had to give a speech but I wasn't prepared. I decided to give it anyway. While giving the speech, I got so nervous I passed out. FML
Today, I had an extreme panic attack in the middle of class. I interrupted another person's presentation, burst into tears, and ran out of class whilst everyone looked at me. FML
Today, I gave a presentation for my final on class. While I was giving the speech my shirt strap broke. I ended up flashing everyone including the teacher. At least I got an A. FML
Today, I tripped in front of my graduation class of 225 and all of their relatives while receiving my diploma. FML

I had a situation where the sun was glaring out my GPS. I soon found myself saluting while driving... in the ghetto.

That's no one else's but your own fault.

Haha that's okay, man, what's important is that you were able to overcome that fear. And you're possibly one step closer to becoming a ruthless dictator.

Incoming nazi puns

I honestly don't know how to react to the puns. I'm a jew living in Israel and I take offense to all the line because the holocaust is NOT a joke and on the other hand I kinda laughed at the puns. *sighh* op- it will be awkward, people wont understand and your life is doomed. jk but I really don't know how you can explain that

I can't comprehend what makes people do the things they do when they're panicking. I'm not condemming you or anyone else doing weird stuff while in panic...I'd just love to know how ones brain decides to do such a complex, yet rational not understandable movement like a Hitler-salute in front of a graduation class. But btT: I don't think anyone will hold a grudge against you because of this if you're not doing nazi stuff regularly

Anne Frank-ly I find all of these Nazi jokes disturbing.
