This isn't a super long fuckup but it's still worth posting, I think.
I play D&D online with a group of friends every Thursday evening. Because of my girlfriend's work schedule, I usually have to run to pick her up about 2/3rds of the way through the game session and bring her home. While I do so, I normally switch to Discord on my phone and listen in on the session (and occasionally contribute verbally) while I drive. The DM takes care of any dice rolls I have to make.
Anyway, since it's usually late by this point we will stop at a drive thru quickly on the way home. Last night I had just gotten done speaking to an NPC as my turn came up in the drive thru line, so as the DM (in character as the butler NPC) asks "Is there anything else you need?" I turned the volume down to give my order to the McDonald's worker.
"Yeah, I'd like a triple cheeseburger, medium fries and a mocha frappe."
I hear the group bursting into laughter, but wasn't paying close attention to what was making them laugh.
"We don't have frappes tonight."
"Oh okay, large Coke with no ice then."
More laughter, and then I realize that I'd not muted myself the whole time. I was mortified, but the timing was so incredibly perfect given what the NPC said that I couldn't even be mad.
The best part was the DM's rather dry response:
"Well, Master Aodhan, for that you'll have to speak to Pierre, the chef."
TL;DR left my mic on while making a drive thru order during a D&D session just as an NPC asked what else I needed.
