The most amusing/awkward moment you found yourself in.

[happyninja42]

So I've had some really choice moments in my life, where I either did something really stupid/funny. Or was in a situation where something stupid/funny happened, that had everyone sort of stunned from awkwardness for several seconds.

One that recently came to mind, was when I was at the gym. It was a weeknight, around 9pm or so I think, not very busy. The gym had the radio system set to satellite radio, and had it on a techno/dance station. Fine by me, I love techno, so it doesn't bug me at all. Background thumping to run to. I do my routine, and get to the part where I'm working some of the weight machines, and next to me are these 2 middle aged women, obviously there as a buddy system for their health. So their doing their thing, and I'm doing mine, not really paying each other attention. And then a song comes on, with this woman, speaking in a deep, sultry voice, while techno beats play in the background. No big deal, a sexy woman singing in a song isn't news...uuuuntil she gets the line "You fucking me makes me bilingual." At which point, the 3 of us all just sort of stopped, and looked at each other like "did she...just say..." "you fucking me makes me bilingual" *repeats* Yep! I was laughing in my head about it, because the two women were so obviously flustered by the lyrics. It was just an amusing little moment where the "routine" of the situation was drastically flung to the side, and we all had to take a moment to make sure what happened really happened.

So what about you? What things have you done, or witnessed, that were funny, but also awkward for the people involved?

I assume our first times being intimate at all with another person are too obvious?

Fun fact: I giggle when nervous. Makes kissing impossible though, especially when you dont even know how to in the first place.

If your first time was sufficiently awkward, and it's a funny story, sure. I didn't have that issue my first time, but that's me.

Though that does remind me of another example. When I was probably...12? 13 years old, I went to a friends birthday party. She had a big house, her parents were very well off financially, so it was a big to do at her place. And she asked to dance with me. I agreed, even though I'm not really good at couples dancing, and especially wasn't at that time. So we take hands, and start to move, and do the cliche 80's goof of me stepping on her foot, and then we both look down, and bonk heads. I started laughing after, mostly because I was amazed at the cliche-ness of the whole thing.

I was in an HMV once and the theme from Pulp Fiction came on over the speakers. Yup, including the intro. Someone yanked it for a different track, but not in time.

When I was going to college I would often have long breaks in between my classes, and if I didn't have any studying or work to do I would just hang out in the student union, play some games, browse the internet, etc. Well there was one room in the student union that had the best wifi, and that's where a lot of the geeks hung out. It's not a huge room, and you couldn't always get a table to yourself so it was pretty normal to sit with strangers.

So I was sitting at one of the tables and a guy asked if he could sit with me. I said sure.

Big mistake.

I had my headphones in, and was trying to watch something on my laptop, but he seemed insistent on having a conversation. Whatever, I don't mind, I have time to kill. So we get to talking about video games, and then anime, and then he somehow steered the conversation over to My Little Pony, which I don't watch, and then he started talking about how he's a furry, and explaining his fursona to me.

So I'm now trapped in a conversation with a complete stranger about his very weird sexual fetish.

And this is where I developed a strong dislike of furries. See, their sexual fetish isn't a problem with me, I don't care what other people are into sexually, whatever gets you off gets you off. I do however have a serious problem with how open furries tend to be with their fetish.

A couple of years ago my best friend, we'll call him J, was dating this girl with a guys name. She was cute and nice, but he definitely had some awkward moments. One day I head over to his house. His grandma was over.

Grandma: you sure sit around the house a lot. You should get a girlfriend.
J: Shut up grandma.
Grandma: you know there's a gay streak in our family.
J: I'm not gay grandma. I have a girlfriend grandma.
Grandma: what's her name?
J: ....
(I'm about to burst out laughing)
J: Dylan
(I lose it)

A few days later my dad pick us up from school.
Dad: so, you kissing any girls?
J: Yeah.
Dad: what's her name?
J: Dylan. She's a girl, though!
Dad: Uh.... Okay.

Thats a Too Much Information problem, not a furry problem. I know I dont go up to people being like "Hi, Im a furry, and blah blah blah" and Id be annoyed by that person too. Id also be annoyed if some guy sat down and told me all about his sexual love of feet, or anything else unprovoked.

And its not purely sexual either, incase you consider us all being "open with our fetish" cause of furry avatars or usernames like "Paws_WolfHowl" on public forums and such.

It's a furry problem.

It's the same reason that furries show up at every convention and expect people to be accepting of them. You don't see people show up to comic con with whips and leather bondage gear and expect people to treat them like they're normal.
