Um, give this band a Grammy, stat! Thanks to Glamour.com for pointing out the stupendous song and accompanying video for “Walk of Shame”, a tune penned by Shayna Ferm & The Upper Deckers. We’ve all been there (well, we have) and some of the memories make us cringe and laugh—but now they’ll make us dance. But all that got us thinking…what’s your worst/funniest/most awkward walk of shame story? On Halloween about five years ago, I actually went as “The Walk Of Shame” (man’s button-down, high heels, smeared lipstick, phone number on my hand, bedhead, etc.), then ended up going home with a fellow (he was dressed as a chicken, if you were curious) and had to do the walk of the shame the next morning in my walk of shame costume. Oh, and I broke a heel running down a flight of stairs. Beat that! Share your stories, in the comments.

I went to college in a town that used to have a giant parade for homecoming each year. So large in fact that they used to close entire parts of the town for the parade. The night before the parade, one year, my ex called up late with a booze filled proposition. I was of course a guy, and obviously, had no scruples, so of course I went over. The issue is that all of my roommates HATED her (mostly because she cheated on me at every turn, took my stuff, lied about things, you know small things) and would routinely delete any message she left on the house phone. So I go over to her place at like 3am, things occur, we go to sleep. I wake up at about 8am, with her laying on my arm, passed out. I somehow slip out of her grasp without waking her up, then realize that her place is on the other side of town from mine, and because of the parade, I am trapped there until the afternoon. So I am stuck with a hung-over ex girlfriend that I end up having to take out to breakfast as some sort of sign of chivalry, even though we’d been broken up for 4 months and had to start to see other people.
When I get home, I find my roommates have taken a photo of my ex, had it blown up and printed out at kinkos, painted devil horns on it, and put it on my door so I get the hint. I go into my bathroom to take a shower and there’s a giant masking tape frame on the mirror with an arrow pointing to it, and the word “Whore” written in lipstick. God bless those guys… The ended up being right in the long run… Too bad it took 2 semesters of these pranks to get it through my head.

Maybe this is just my perverted guy’s mind seeing something where there’s nothing, but is her band named after one of the foulest frat pranks of all time?

I definitely think this is possible.

It gets worse! I visited my college a few weeks ago after nearly six years out and learned that, like Halloween, the fraternity and sorority mixers these days are all about sex and sluttiness. They actually have “Walk of Shame” parties these days, so not only were there dozens of girls in oversized button downs, booty shorts and heels at the bar at night… but just as many the next morning, doing the real walk of shame in their fake walk of shame costumes. What a mindf***.

I actually bought a huge hobo bag and I call it my “No more walk of shame” purse beacuse I can fit toiletries, an outfit and shoes in it.
