post yr awkward moments!


That awkward moment when you're belting at the top of your lungs with your earphones in because you think you're home alone, and then your family member walks in the door. (This both ensures embarrassment AND a heart attack.)

That awkward moment when you're Skyping with someone but you've forgotten, and walk in front of your computer in various states of undress.

[Tigmafuzz]

That awkward moment when you ask someone a question and they don't answer you. Ever. Sam.

I did, though. :( I said, "Sure."

[sharkythesharkdogg]

That awkward moment when a customer asks me to look at some great used car they own immediately after they bought it, and I have to gently tell them they bought a worn out piece.

That awkward moment after some customer, co-worker, or who ever asks me what my religion is, I say I'm atheist, they pause and say something like, "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that." and I have to respond with, "It's a point of view, not a terminal disease."

[Shorty]

That awkward moment when someone is talking to you but you're not listening to them because you're thinking about how much you want to punch them in the face but then they ask you a question about what they were talking about and you don't know how to respond because you were pre-occupied with fantasies of face-punching.

Poor Rantz. :(

[Alpha2099]

That awkward moment when my girlfriend (now ex-girlfriend) is talking to me about something, but I zoned out because I was thinking of something else, and then she asks me a question, but I can't respond because I totally missed the conversation.

[Sephex]

When you apparently fart as loud as possible in your sleep and your girlfriend endlessly makes fun of you for boarding the poot poot train the next day.

Omg, Shelly is so awesome. I want to be friends with her.

[Pike]

That awkward moment when you fall asleep early and then wake up a few hours later and think it's the next day and that you slept in so you actually call work and apologize for being late, and they have to gently tell you that it's 9pm Sunday and not 9am Monday

:(

I wonder why you guys broke up.

[Raebus]

That awkward moment when you have to ask one of your parents to pay for a charge from a porn site, one which had no fee or money charge advertised. This was years ago but friends never let me live it down. :(

[fire_of_avalon]

That awkward moment when you thought your phone rang but nope, no one ever calls you.

That awkward moment in the video store when you ask the clerk about a movie from 1992 and you realize she was probably born around 1992

Poor Rantz. :(

Not Rantz. Nice try, though! But when I talk to him face to face I don't pay attention either because I'm marveling at how tall he is.

Believe me, there were much more substantial reasons besides that.

Fixed.

[Shorty]

That, too. When he puts on my make-up it's also awkward, but I can't look away.

[Quindiana Jones]

God damnit, Rantzien is a handsome man.

[Trumpet Thief]

That awkward moment when you take a nap in the middle of the day and wonder what year it is.

[Sephex]

When you apparently fart as loud as possible in your sleep and your girlfriend endlessly makes fun of you for boarding the poot poot train the next day.

Omg, Shelly is so awesome. I want to be friends with her.

But if I fart when I am awake, it's gross! WHY IS IT OKAY WHEN I AM SLEEPING?!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNN!!!!

[Jiro]

That awkward moment when you take a nap in the middle of the day and wonder what year it is.

This, so badly. I have had a few instances where I fell asleep unknowingly and when I wake up I'm not really sure what's going on any more.

[Wolf Kanno]

That awkward moment when you make an off color joke around someone you thought you really knew and they are completely thrown off by it, especially awkward when said person is also your boss...

That awkward moment of really belting it out in the shower cause you figure the sound of the shower itself will drown it out along with the walls, and then your roomies mention how lovely your singing voice is when you get out...

That awkward moment when you're getting rid of a body and the police show up because you left your hazard lights on your car while you were parked on the side of the road next to your local body of water....

[Rantz]

When you start telling a joke or a story and you realise halfway through that they won't get it.

When you just stabbed someone and realise it's the wrong person so you start apologising.

[Faris]

That awkward moment when you take a nap in the middle of the day and wonder what year it is.

Similarly, when you wake up and forget who else is in the room with you. :shobon:

[Shattered Dreamer]

The awkward moment when at age 24 you use the phrase "totes awks awky mo mo" in a non-joking fashion & you instantly hate yourself for it :/

[Quindiana Jones]

The awkward moment when you come out of the shower smelling of mint and a group of unknown people come down the stairs and sniff you.

[Shlup]

That awkward moment when you're selling someone a hat and she asks for a military discount and you say no but then she says she's the wife of someone in the military and you still say no but then she says she's actually a widow of someone in the military and you can think of nothing acceptable to say but then she tells you to Google his name is millions-of-results common but you can't say that so you tell her to have a good day but then a few seconds later she comes back with photos of an ice cube from her daughter's soda cup at the IHOP that has the Virgin Mary frozen inside and she asks if I think that means there will be justice for her husband because she thinks so and you say totally and omg finally another customer needs help and she goes away.

[Shattered Dreamer]

That awkward moment when you're selling someone a hat and she asks for a military discount and you say no but then she says she's the wife of someone in the military and you still say no but then she says she's actually a widow of someone in the military and you can think of nothing acceptable to say but then she tells you to Google his name is millions-of-results common but you can't say that so you tell her to have a good day but then a few seconds later she comes back with photos of an ice cube from her daughter's soda cup at the IHOP that has the Virgin Mary frozen inside and she asks if I think that means there will be justice for her husband because she thinks so and you say totally and omg finally another customer needs help and she goes away.

If I could think of a word for a situation where the word awkward didn't quite cut it in terms of description, that story would warrant it!

[Quindiana Jones]

I've worked in a couple of stores that didn't offer military or services (NHS, Police, Fire Brigade, RNLI etc.) discount. I just gave them the student discount anyway.

I think Shlup just ruined this thread. :|


what the fuck

[Værn]

That awkward moment when reading Schlup's post makes you forget when you were originally going to post.

That awkward moment when you throw a can of Mtn. Dew at your brother and he doesn't catch it.

[Jessweeee♪]

That awkward moment when you forget to tell your dorm mate that you're on video chat with your boyfriend and she starts changing her clothes.

[sharkythesharkdogg]

That awkward moment at a party when you watch someone flips their shit because apparently they walked in to some bedroom at the back of the house and catch their girlfriend/boyfriend having sex with someone else.

[Tigmafuzz]

That's more shameful and despicable than "awkward."

[sharkythesharkdogg]

I meant awkward for me and everyone else there. It's kinda one of those :onoes: moments.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I would have taken pictures.

[Miss Lady Shelly]

That awkward moment when your pants end up ripping in between the legs while you are at a big gathering and not able to get a pair till you get home.

[Sephex]

[sharkythesharkdogg]

That sounds hilarious.

I guess this is relevant: I was at Goodwill and there was some bitch coupling of a daughter and mother and they were looking at bras/underwear. I walked over and began to look at the underwear. They became noticeably discomforted. I worked my way quickly around the circular display of lingerie until I was right next to the mother. She whispered something to her daughter, looked at me in disgust, and walked away quickly. I couldn't help but start laughing. It was a good day, because I found a great pair of boy-shorts (wearing them now) and a black lingerie onesie. I also found Spooky by Lush on cassette for 50 cents.

NOT ENOUGH QUOTE BOXES.

I would like it if you wore a skirt. All of you.

[Miss Lady Shelly]

I, uh... I don't know about that.


I already wear skirts, Justin.

Wear shorter ones and scare children on the bus :<3:

[Sylvie]

Already did that in high school plenty of times.

[escobert]

That awkward moment when you're sitting in the car with your ex who wants to get back together with you and you have to tell her that you in no way shape or form want to get back together with her.
and ontop of that it was like 398572893573285 degrees in my friggen car today :mad2:

[Quindiana Jones]

He then crashed the car.

[Sylvie]

And the ex-girlfriend problem was taken care of.

[Jiro]

Skirts are kind of neat. Don't be afraid of 'em Fuzzy T. You feel exposed but you get used to it.

Also that awkward moment when you go to shake hands with someone and then realise they have a broken hand/arm and you feel all weird and then shake their left hand instead and it just kind of doesn't work and you're both left feeling awkward.

Also: failed high fives. Every time it happens I feel like I want to die.

[Shorty]

That awkward moment when you try to introduce yourself to someone but they tell you that you've met before.

[Madame Adequate]

That awkward moment when you confront your father about his sexual abuse of you as a child.

[Tigmafuzz]

That awkward moment when you can't find your glasses and you can't look for them properly cause you're not wearing your glasses

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

[Miss Lady Shelly]

That awkward moment when you have your mom dye your hair red only to have it turn hot pink then she freaks out and she then has to cover it with black hair dye. (happend when i was 15 and ever since then ive never trusted her to dye my hair again)

[Sephex]

When you try to let out a little fart in a public restroom, but it ends up exploding like Hiroshima.

[NorthernChaosGod]

That awkward moment when you can't find your glasses and you can't look for them properly cause you're not wearing your glasses

Put them back in the same spot every time. :colbert:

[Peegee]

That awkward moment when someone is talking to you but you're not listening to them because you're thinking about how much you want to punch them in the face but then they ask you a question about what they were talking about and you don't know how to respond because you were pre-occupied with fantasies of face-punching.

I'm never talking to you IRL. I will just look at you like this :| until you get creeped out.

Hey, we'll be near kishi so that might actually be an improvement or might be preferred.

That awkward moment when you walk into the girl's change/rest room. Has happened to me twice.

*turns 360 degrees and walks out the door*

[krissy]

*turns 360 degrees and walks out the door*

"GET OUT OF HERE I SAID"

[Peegee]

*turns 360 degrees and walks out the door*

"GET OUT OF HERE I SAID"

"what are you doing in the boy's washroom?"

[krissy]

dude did i tell you that story
for those of you that are confused i said that to a boy with long hair when i was like 12 and got pushed for it
i literally could not tell it was a boy

[G13]

Saw a girl I thought was a guy leave the girl's room when I was eleven. Almost shook her hand and asked what it was like.

Didn't find out she was a girl until like a year later.

[DarkBahamut]

Awkward moment when you're caught "walking the dog" and the person who catches you joins. No, this has not actually every occurred with me.

This post has been rated R by the something something of really now. Okay, it's borderline, but we're trying to not let this place turn into an alleyway. ~Shlup

[Jiro]

Something tells me "walking the dog" is a euphemism. I wonder if it's anything like fluffing your garfield.

[Miss Lady Shelly]

That awkward moment when you're in the restroom and all of a sudden you hear someone vomit really loudly in the next stall and it scares you.

[Værn]

That awkward moment when you can't find your glasses and you can't look for them properly cause you're not wearing your glasses

That awkward moment when you can't find your glasses and, after about ten minutes of searching, you realize that you fell asleep wearing them and they're still on your face.

Almost this, except I'm about walk out the door to meet a friend, and I'm looking for my cell phone. I tell them I might be a little late, but I'll leave as soon as I find it, and they remind me I'm talking to them on it. :|

[Pike]

That awkward moment when you ONLY LOSE YOUR KEYS WHEN YOU'RE LATE

[Clo]

That awkward moment when you realize the Joker's hair is green, not red.

:shifty:

[Sephex]

That awkward moment when your bathroom mirror is angled just correctly when opened to see a naked couple in another apartment and they think you didn't notice, so they dove out of the way all the while that you were naked too.

[Sylvie]

That awkward moment when you realize the Joker's hair is green, not red.

:shifty:
That awkward moment when you're laying on your back, bleeding to death in a movie theater, and you can't even see where your kid and girlfriend are at.

You knew I was going to do that. ~Shlup

[Miss Lady Shelly]

That awkward moment when you are trying to watch a movie at the theater when all of a sudden you burst out laughing (but not to loud) because some guy is snoring very loudly in the row above you and it last's half of the movie.

[Pike]

That awkward moment when you're trying to talk to someone and you inhale a tiny particle of dust or something and plunge into a coughing fit

[Zeldy]

When you're looking so intently for something that you don't realize it is literally right in front of you.

And the person that walks by see it in 3 seconds? I hate that :(

I work at Blockbuster and I do this to people on a daily basis, the amount of times they ask me to find a DVD they can't find and I walk back with it 2 seconds later, they always just laugh though and say they must be blind for not seeing it. It's more just that I know where absolutely everything is unfortunately.

I find it really awkward when I can't remember someone's name, but you've known each other too long to ask for it again. So you try everything to get around it, simply replying to them as anything but their name. I again have this with regular customers who I can't for the life of me remember their names so after a lengthy conversation I have to awkwardly ask 'what's your name again, sorry?' when attempting to find their account.

[Pike]

Speaking of retail, that awkward moment when a customer comes in and says something like "I'm back again; remember me!" and you have no idea who they are.

CUSTOMERS: I SEE HUNDREDS UPON HUNDREDS OF YOU A DAY, I DON'T REMEMBER YOU INDIVIDUALLY, SORRY.

CUSTOMERS: I SEE HUNDREDS UPON HUNDREDS OF YOU A DAY, I DON'T REMEMBER YOU INDIVIDUALLY, SORRY.

Everyone always remembers me at stores or restaurants that I go to, even if I haven't been there in over a month, but I never remember any of them. I feel so bad that I'm apparently great at making an impression but I can't remember anyone I've only ever met once ;_;

[Bubba]

That awkward moment when your Father reveals to you that your Mother was big into bondage when they were married.

[Quindiana Jones]

Awkward, yet somehow arousing.

[Jiro]

Disappointed by the number of people who don't remember their customers. If you see them every month then you should at least try and recognise them.

[Quindiana Jones]

I remember the ones who are awesome. If you're just another customer, then no, I'm not gonna waste time trying to remember who you are.

[Jinx]

When you're a server, you remember your regulars, because when you address them personally and go out of the way for them, you get better tips.

Plus, it's just lovely. :)

[Rianoa]

That awkward moment when you complain about your arms hurting from carrying shopping then a man walks by with no arms and thinks you're an ass.

[Quindiana Jones]

Pffrt, fuck that guy.
