You know that sinking feeling you get when you've been talking about someone and it turns out they're right behind you?
That familiar pit in your stomach, the blood rising to your cheeks as you splutter a bit and think of a good excuse to give, but you come up with nada?
That painfully awkward moment you realize they definitely understood every word you said?
You just wish someone would hand you a shovel so you could be done with it.
Might as well write ‘Here lies someone stupid’ on your tombstone.
These two brothers had this mortifying moment at the airport on their way to Hawaii, where they felt exactly like that - and the internet found it too relatable…
The full story unfolds in a series of videos where they explain precisely what went down.
@miichaeljarvis uploaded their awkward confessions on TikTok, begging the internet to save them after they admit they were chatting about a girl in Spanish, thinking they were safe because, well… they spoke in Spanish.
The humiliating experience happened at the airport, where somehow people you would rate a 5 become an automatic 10.
So let's say she was a 12 because these boys were talking about how hot she was.
Sometimes it takes only 3 simple words to confirm your worst fears, and in this case these words were ‘The Latin Alliance’, which were written in Spanish on the back of her sweatshirt, which they only noticed of course after their prior oblivion.
Talk about awkward!
The Video In Question
We're getting some second-hand embarrassment here, to be honest.
What's worse, the girl ends up on the same flight as them!
Seems like Karma's showing up early this year…
The guys wanted to talk to her, but the commenters pointed out that it appears as though she is escaping them on purpose…
Because she was nowhere to be found.
Update - “We F$cked Up”
At this point, the internet was dying to know what had been said, because what good is the tea without the sugar?
The guys satisfied their curiosity (and ours) by uploading a third video where they explained exactly what went down.
Tea was served, and our thirst was quenched!
Michael said his brother @hawaiiTID told him there was ‘this hot chick there’ and that he thought ‘she wanted him’.
Cringe.
Sorry guys, quick break…
We're gonna need a moment of silence for this poor dude.
Apparently, she had asked him if the plugs worked at his station, and he had interpreted it as flirting.
If that's flirting, we're getting hit on every day.
It seems like Michael agrees because he was afraid that his brother would be shot down, so he tried convincing him not to hit on her and to just ‘wait until Hawaii to chill and find girls’.
His argument was persuasive enough, so he succeeded in getting his brother to stay quiet.
What Was Said, Though?
The commenters were having a field day and offered their condolences, along with saying that they needed to hear it in Spanish…
Because what better way to hear a Spanish fail than in their native language?
The guys uploaded one final video (Thus far), where they gracefully obliged.
The commenters were here for it, and congratulated them on their Spanish, which was inspected thoroughly.
Talk Dirty To Me
We bet they'll never dare speak about anyone in any language in public again after this particularly uncomfortable experience!
And maybe it'll make you think twice, too ;).
