When someone says hello/tries to talk to me, and I have no idea who that person is. Its even worse when supposedly you had a conversation with that person before.
I hate that. It's nearly as bad as when somebody waves in your general direction and you acknowledge the wave, or even worse wave back, only to find out they were doing it to a person behind you.

The single most spine crawlingly awkward situation I've been in was when counselling a friend who desperately wanted to dump his girl, and I think my exact words to him were "Look you've just got to get on with it and dump her if you're really not happy!".... as she walked out of the door behind me.

I locked my boss in the beer cellar for about half an hour a couple of months back, she wasn't amused...it becomes habit to lock that door everytime I leave the cellar. The best awkward moment I know of happened at school. My friend sneezed and 2 huge streaks of intermingling, stringy snot landed on the arm of his jumper, with half the class watching he panicked and decided that the only logical escape from the situation was to eat it before more people could see...I dry heaved so much my stomach hurt for the rest of the day.

Way back in my High-school days, my girlfriend and I would often run into each other at the library. The trouble was, we were always reading something at the time. The conversations usually followed this format:

"Oh, hey."

"Hey."

*awkward silence*

"What're you reading?"

"*title of book*. You?"

"*title of book*."

"Ah."

*awkward silence*

*bell*

"Well, see you later."

"Yeah."

Back when I worked at Gamestop, we had lots of fun, and a lot of awkward situations. The one that comes to mind is when me and another guy were working late and noone had come in in the past two hours. So, we started flinging the gift cards at each other, pretending they were shurikens. I was taking cover behind a shelf, and a customer came in. I didn't see her, and when I jumped out and started to throw them, I noticed the customer. A little too late. I ended up trying to stop myself from throwing the cards mid-throw, and that resulted in all 50+ of them leaving my hand in various directions.

Dude, you have my deepest sympathies man. Fortunately that NEVER happened to me, but still I am sorry man.
When I was in high school, a frequent occurrence would be someone would say hi or even start an entire conversation with me, and they somehow knew me, but I had no clue who they were.

im in high school, and know a lot of people, but i have memory problems, so i cant remember a lot of peoples names. this happens so often that some people actually expect it from me and i sometimes, when i remember to, tell people that theres a good chance i will forget their name. it gets annoying.

When I was 13 or so I was thought I was home alone. I was laying spread out, in nothing but socks, in the living room masturbating like crazy. Moaning, thinking about the girl I had a crush on in school, being noisy as hell, etc. Then my grandad (I was raised by grandparents) walks in and he's like.


"WHAT THE SHIT?"

Working in a game shop always has it's moments. I worked in one too. A bunch of regulars [who were buddies I guess] were hanging around and my colleague brought out Life Signs for the DS and he was showing us how you could prod your patient all over and she'd make stupid comments. The shop was empty so we could goof off a little. We were all just laughing and shit when I playfully tried to grab the DS out of his hands and said [rather loudly] "Gimme that! I'm gonna see if it works on her vag".

At this point, I noticed a young female customer standing in the corner quietly. I had to avoid her from that day on.

I worked at carmax in the business office and I had to answer phones and talk to customers if they had any questions about their contracts or other paperwork stuff. So one day I was talked to a customer and I replies "yes, sir" and the customer says "no it's ma'am", and of course I didn't hear so I say "I'm sorry... what?" and she yells into the phone "I'm a woman!". I apologized and felt so bad! Later she came into the store to pick something up and I hid in the back!

She was cool with it.

Almost as cool as my dad was around my aunt's ex-husband the felon.

This may not be the place but I was thinking about this earlier today and it sort of fits: double dates. Why would I want to embarass myself in front of 3 people instead of just 1?

Anyway, if I started to think of and type all the awkward moments I've had I'd:

a) have way too many to write down
and
b) kill myself

And I only just turned 16 yesterday (or two days ago now, I guess. It's late (early?))

I dread the future.

Have any of you ever ordered a pizza, and then find that you can't find you wallet when the guy get there. Or had your dogs been barking then receive at least four angry phone calls in the middle of the night. Both of them have happened to me and I can never say what I need to say and always seen to stutter like a idiot. What do you guys do in that situation
once the pizza guy came over and robbedme when I was lookin for my wallet, he took my phone and Ipod off my counter.

Happy Birthday!
Feliz Compleanos!

Please insert the pinon, otherwise it means 'happy years of taking poops.' Or something like that.

..............dude. TMI.

Well, for me I guess it was this one time when I was staying over at my friend's mountain home, and we camped outside one night. In the middle of the night my friend says she has to go to the bathroom, but when we opened the tent we heared....noises. My friend's mom and her boyfriend were having fun inside the house.
My friend decided she could hold it in.

That still happens to me all the time. I always wonder whether I should act like i know them, or just spill the beans and get it over with.

Thanks, man. My life was changed after that. Do you remember the episode of That 70's Show where Eric walked in on his parents? Yeah, it was sort of like that for the next week.

Walking down the corridor just as my ex-girlfriend was making out with this guy I'm.. not so friendly with.

I defused it by going in a high pitched voice "aaawkward", but one of my friends quickly called me over to get me out of it.
