Awkward moments...

The awkward moment when something falls onto you and you frantically flick it away thinking it's a bug, only to find out it's one of the ear buds of your headphones :facepalm: #Legitstartled
 
When a Pakistani news channel reports the case of a kidnapping and one of the three kidnappers name is Shahid Afridi. Sigh! From a couple of hours back.....

He had covered his face but was recognized by his silky hair?
 
The awkward moment when your Pakistani friend likes a facebook page of the Israeli air forces.
 
When you want to give respect to a woman and end up calling her "sir".
 
A few days ago, my friend and I were waiting for the elevator to come. Once it opened, this Pakistani uncle is standing in there, smiling. He sees my friend first (as he's standing right in front of the elevator door), and he signals him to come in the elevator. So, my friend goes in. Then, the uncle sees me, and he signals for me to come in. I go in. Then, even though there's nobody standing in the lobby, he signals again for someone to come in. And he's continuously smiling. Me and my friend are like whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!? :))) Plus, he had a mushroom cut and golden glasses, so yeah. :)))

Now, we're in the elevator, eagerly waiting to reach the 6th floor. Apparently, that uncle lived on a floor higher than the 6th floor, so he continued to entertain us. He puts his chappal beside my friend's chappal, and says 'big foot!'. Again, I'm like WTH!? :)))

I started laughing right there. My friend, who is a bit younger than me controlled it to some extent, but I couldn't. I just couldn't. I BURST out laughing, and the uncle kept smiling.

I was relieved when I reached the 6th floor!

That´s brilliant! What a man he must have been:)):))):)):)))!!!!
 
I was scratching my nose once and some guys behind me thought I was digging my nose. Being the clever guy I am, I turned around and scratched my nose to show them that I wasn't doing what they were thinking.:afridi
 
The awkward moment when you meet someone from a class you had after 4 years and you are not sure of their name but they remember yours AND you proceed to talk to them for 15 mins anyway.

Happened with a girl from my first semester in college and after chatting a bit she then suggests we should meet up on a weekend so we exchanged numbers and she went first. She gave her number and as I typed it she just wouldnt stop peering over my screen. I guess she wanted to make sure that I had the right number down or something. But when the time came to save it, I had no idea on what name to save it under so I just pulled the phone away and saved it as 'Freshman yr girl from starbucks.'

My luck that she said, 'Wait! I will be changing my phone this week so just take my other number in case,' and she just took the phone from me.

BAM! She saw what Id saved her as and soon found out I didnt really remember her name. I dont think we are hitting each other up lol. I was pretty embarassed because it made me come across as a douche and Im generally a nice guy :/

I know you are not a quick thinker but a little ''How do you spell your name again?'' would have sufficed. :misbah

The awkward moment when your stomach growls, and you assume everyone thinks you farter so you have to say "im hungry" so people beside you can understand.
 
This was the real awkward moment that has EVER happened in my life. This was like 7 years ago. Me and my friend got into an elevator after tutoring along with couple of other random people. When we entered the elevator, we saw an old man probably in his late 70s/early80s , with a nice suit and flower bouquet in his hand. One of the "random" girl who walked into the elevator saw the old man and asked "awwww are those flowers for me ?" for which he replied "no, they are from my wife, i just buried her"
 
The trick here is to start coughing or making noise while your stomach comes to a halt.:misbah:asif

It happened to me once during school :(

Room was dead silent too.....

:(

That awkward moment in class when your teacher asks you a question but you dont notice because you're day dreaming and they have to call your name like 4 times to snap you awake
 
How do you remember to act like your paying attention when you are not paying attention ?:inti

You look intensely in the teacher's eye and nod your head.

One teacher said that I ''literally gob her words down'' when I couldn't remember what she said all year.

I always act like I am paying attention, even if I am not.:yk

You just keep looking at her, keep a nice face and nod your head.

Your face shouldn't have any doubtful expression.

I was different though. I used to make facial expressions as if I am concentrating too hard. I would often interrupt to say, "Could you please repeat that bit?"

I once overdid the acting a bit and deliberately put the eye-drops in the ears whilst gazing at the teacher.
 
I was standing in a long queue in McDonalds and my turn was just about to come. And then suddenly, some of my friends walk in and they force me to let them get in the line with me. I couldn't really say no either because they are my friends. Afterwards, dozens of people gave me really bad looks. And I was just like....

Yes our Pakistani bros never care about this and you really cant say no.
 
So there´s this Indian family in our building whose daughter-in-law has given birth to a child. They made the most delicious laddoo that I have ever tasted in life. I have been eating them on daily basis since days now.

Anyway, we visited them to congratulate them and to do our bit on best wishes etc. It suddenly slipped out of my mouth, "So when should I expect those laddoo again?" Stun silence! Even though there was room for me to argue that I was referring to the newborn´s next birthday etc.

I should better stay quiet I think when I visit people.

Thats nothing. Usually stuff for me.

Once in a similar situation I said, "kudi taa sohni aa par laddoo ne mood kharaab karta .'[emoji20]

Sabr karo Rawal bhai. Have some thought for the 'facilitator' of the ladoos. Ladoos require a lot of preparation - 9 months in this case. :p

Awkward as it is, I do sincerely hope you weren't referring to the mother.

You are a legend:)))!

thank god it was not the othr way round sentence, they would have kicked u out.

Hey man, you understand Punjabi? Nice to know that:).

What was the saying, "Dirty minds think alike", or something? Even though, the lawyer within me could have defended the case by arguing that I was just referring to the 'lighter' future events, such as birthdays etc.

Awkward as it is, I do sincerely hope you weren't referring to the mother.

I wouldn´t think so. The job of flattering married women by showering compliments is exclusively mine. Just a couple of days ago I saw my elder sister´s neighbour doing a lot of work at home and I called her a "Strong woman" - in the husband´s presence! She can´t resist smiling each time she sees me again, and has been asking about my age etc.

[MENTION=45152]Saurav[/MENTION] [MENTION=96424]RWAC[/MENTION] There´s an update on the above story. As it turns out, there´s this Indian shop-owner, called Mr. Laal, from whose shop someone from our family bought laddoo and trust me, they had the same taste, exactly the same. My sense of taste is very strong, so strong that my wife won´t be able to seek my mother´s help in cooking and later fool me into thinking that she herself made it.

So I won´t really have to rely on the above mentioned family, the couple in particular, as long as Mr. Laal and his shop is there. And this is not to say that the family lied to us that they made them themselves, because that issue never ever quite got clarified.
 
When you see a teacher in the hallway whose class you just skipped.

Happened with me just a week ago - I walked past the teacher without making an eye contact but was confronted in the class the next day!

:)) Was having my breakfast this morning in the caf when I spotted my last semester's Linear Algebra teacher, as soon as she looked at me, I turned my face away. Was soo bait :)) :usman
 
When your manager lets you take a week off work to attend a training seminar, and walks into the seminar to check on how it's going, and finds you surfing the web...

It happened to me just last month. But at least I got to steal a name tent that said "Jin(n)"
 
The awkward moment when you as a 15 year old write a love poem for a chick at the reception of a huge computer center just for the lady owner to come along, want to see what you wrote and then read it aloud in front of everyone. Yeah there is a reason this is so specific
 
When there is a kissing scene on TV with elders and parents around and the remote control batteries magically stop working.

On episode 29 of Death Note, watching it for a 2nd time.

A scene literally just occurred where Kira calls Light's father and informs him that on November 10th, at 11:59pm, all known mafia members will die.

Its Novermber 10th 11:59pm right this second :/

What in the blue hell :))) you're worse then the folk who watch WWE
 
That gets you in the feels man, get emotional just imagining it

That may be the case when you imagine it, however, seeing it is plain awkward.
I'm sure both of them actually felt like chokeslamming the other. :srt

Isn't O'hare an Irish name [MENTION=136108]Donal Cozzie[/MENTION] met a psychologist with that name expected him to be Irish but he seemed pretty English tbh and didn't have the Irish accent
 
Can't say that this hasn't happened to me.

I've watched WWE during the RA era with me nan and TNA in the mid 2000's with me grandpa, it was pretty hillarious :))) my nan especially, kept shouting at me about how can you tell me that doesn't hurt them lol and when the divas came on she was like why are they wearing ripped clothes :yk my grandad on the other hand was like so what number is this channel again :afridi
 
When you call a black girl pagal because she's being dumb and she turns around and says "I know what that means"..
 
The awkward moment when someone sitting around you in your classroom spreads gas, and people think you did it. And from there it's every man for himself. Everyone tries to prove themselves right. :yk

OMG:)) A couple of weeks ago, we were in gym class, I kid you not, the kid behind me farted so hard, the ground legit shook. Everyone thought it was me after:(:sanga
 
Went to as very religious families house, the uncle opened the door and told me that the kids were in the basement so I was like ok. But I thought to myself that I should go say salam to the auntie as well, so I ask him to move even though he told me to go downstairs because the kids are there. Once I get to the kitchen where the auntie was, I say salam and she says it back and then adds "Tumhe to neechay hona chahyey" and I was like yeah and went downstairs.

Still don't know whether I was supposed to go say salam or not:(
 
We went to Pakistan for my cousins marriage in 2011, it was her mehndi. Me and my brother were standing in the hall and talking, I was looking around and I tapped on my brothers shoulder to say something, started saying what I wanted to. Talked for like 10 seconds and I still wasn't looking at him. Finally when I look at my brother... It wasn't my brother... It was the cameraman looking at me with the most confused face, all I said was "mai samjah ke aap meray bhai thay" and left embarrassed as hell.

lol I still run into this dilemma even today. Esp when I was in Canada this past summer there were a lot of dawats and this one particular dawat was at this really religious guy's house. I usually say salam to everyone whether they are an auntie or uncle, so I wasn't sure which one was the lady's area and which was the men's, accidentally ended up in the ladies', said salam and walked out helping myself to some pakoras and samosas on the table, and this guy was giving me a weird look.

Still think I was in the right though. There was no partition between the men and women's side, and I made the best out of it. Also this dude's kids were annoying as hell :moyo
 
Awkward moment when a group of Pakistanis speak urdu in front of you thinking you can't understand them :ma
 
That awkward moment when it is extremely hot and you are wearing pants of a slightly lighter shade, and your underwear sweat starts to show up. :facepalm: :danish
 
When it´s your turn at the barber´s shop and "Waka Waka" plays on the radio at the same time. You can´t resist a few light dancing moves on your chair which ends up in you suffering a minor cut below the ear as your hair were being cut.

Moral of the story: don´t dance when you shouldn´t!
