Here are some of my, Alex P. Keaton's, embarrassments:

Invested all of my father's AT&T stock into a riskier stock which ended up being worthless due to a hurricane.

Turning my parents' house into a hotel while they were gone. This resulted in a kangaroo residing in the house.

Getting hooked on speed in order to study longer. This resulted in cleaning several garages a week.

Dated a woman 18 years my senior while in high school.

Hired Geena Davis as the maid based purely on physical appearance.
