By far and away calling my friend's mom retarded when I was a stupid little kid. He was on speaker. If I could pinpoint the exact moment where my life started going off-track, it was then and there. But boy was I upset that his mom wouldn't let him play guild wars.
I'm sure she's forgotten it, and he probably has too, but the moment replays in my head at least once a month.
At least it was a learning experience. Now I never say anything about anyone that I'm not willing to say to their face.
When I was around 10 I was invited to hang out to my uncle's bosses bbq party along with my cousins and the guy's children where talking about going karting and then the guy says "What would they think if we told them you were under 16 haha" and I just blurted out "they would probably think she's a mutant".
Idk man I was 10 she looked grown up to me but I'm sure I gave that girl identity issues
18 Years have gone by and I still have flashbacks to that moment
