At work: We had a summer associate event and the summer associates were doing skits. One skit went a little long and wasn't very funny and the drunk partner sitting next to me actually booed them. Very loudly. He also turned to me, mistakenly thinking he was speaking in a quiet voice and said, "What the fuck is this? Are they stupid? This sucks."
Outside of work: I have a few examples (one involving a police station and the cops telling me the proper abreviation for race when filling out a form was "N"), but the one that sticks out most is when a friend of mine (nicest guy ever) was hopelessly in love with this French woman. She cheated on him constantly. He knew he cheated on her, but it was one of those types of relationships. She just had him. If he left the room, she would shamelessly flirt with any of us.
Anyway, we were all hanging out, we all knew her deal and he proceeds to propose to her in front of everyone.* She tries to change the subject before he can really put himself too far out there, but he just keeps pushing. She says, "No," flat-out. He's crushed. And then they don't leave! She wants to stay and drink and he agrees to stay. Horrible.

*I'll never understand why anyone does this in public when they aren't 100% sure the answer will be "Yes." It's like they think they have a better shot at making it happen because no one would want to embarass someone else by turning them down in front of other people.
