Awkward Situations

I love hearing stories about people and their awkward situations. I'll start off with one I am currently in. As in I'm writing as it happens.


The broski just waltzed in the house with his girlfriend we haven't met yet, after being in Brooklyn for about two weeks and spending a night in jail. So he walks in, I'm on this one site studying for calc, and it's like "oh hey there..."

Then, broski shows me his shiny new droid... so I was like... "where did you get the money for that?" and he said "i'm rich now!" (edited for explicit content). And his girlfriend is just standing there... and I was like... this is akward...

He is apparently working for some guy with some website with music or whatever. Broski wants to be a DJ.

So the happy couple just left, and my mom gave the poor girl the creepiest look ever and said, "doyoubelieveinGoddoyougotochurch?" and it seriously looked like she was going to exorcise her. I was like... again.... this is awkward....
The girl said "well, I believe in God but I don't go to church...." and MammaGrace proceeded to draw a HUGE cross spanning the girl's forehead with her thumb, at which point the poor girl simply chuckled and said "...thanks..."

So here I sit, all awkward in my sweats and studying, and my mom turns towards me. I looked at her like this :|
I reminded my mom that we are Catholic, not creepy door to door evangelists, that people have their personal space, and that it's more tactful to do her infamous "forehead cross blessing" after knowing the other about 1 or 2 months, as usual.

All I could do was look at everyone in the room like this :blink: :|

It was.....very awkward.

Studying for math makes any social interaction awkward.... :nerd:
[/quote]

this certainly does contribute.
also, the fact that I sometimes lack social graces..
broski to girlfriend "this is my sister! smartest girl in her school"
and i grumbled "...5th smartest girl in the school."
which probably seemed really rude of me. i usually don't do things like that, but my mind was engulfed in teh maths. :blush:

At my age the only awkward things that happen involved bodily noises.

haha, i'm honestly not that motivated towards grades, which is really a bad thing at times. I'm probably (i'll try to say this humbly, but will fail) one of the 3 or 4 smartest people in my grade. Our valedictorian is my best friend since forever, and even he would admit that i'm smarter than him... its bad.

Ask the new girlfriend to do us all a favor, then scoot away from the computer and let her type [i]her[/i] version of the same story. This could be interesting....

When I was in college, my summer job one year was hanging out with a lady at the nursing home. Seriously, I just had to go and spend the day with her, and her daughter would pay me. But anyway, she was in her late 80s, and like many elderly folks, she spoke her mind. One day we were sitting next to the aviary watching the birds and a CNA walked by who didn't typically work on her floor and she looks at him and then looks at me and says (loudly), "THAT is a VERY black man! VERY black!" The CNA (who was, in fact, very black) looked at us, and I wanted to die. He just smiled and walked away.

Once, when I was working in a restaurant, I was cleaning the men's room. As I was back cleaning a stall, a guy came in and I told him I was in there. He said, "That's okay" and proceeded to use the urinal. I locked myself in the stall till he left. :|
