AWKWARD SITUATIONS
I'm pretty sure most of you have had encounters with such similar situations before: You're sitting in the office, doing your work and minding your business. By and by, a colleague gets up and you hear him say, ‘Hey, I'm going to the pantry to get a drink. Want anything?’
Before you look away from whatever you're doing, you assume he's talking to you and you respond enthusiastically, ‘Yeah! I'd like...’
And at this moment, you look up to complete your sentence, only to realize that your colleague wasn't talking to you. You stop mid-sentence, rigid with horror and sheer embarrassment. Your colleagues turn to stare at you expectantly (some might even have smirks on their faces, basking in your humiliation), and you wish to heavens that the floor would just open up and swallow you whole, saving you the painful mortifying awkwardness.
Solution?
Continue your sentence and pretend that you were singing.
‘Yeah! I LIKE BIG BUTTS AND I CANNOT LIE! YOU OTHER BROTHERS CAN'T DENY! WHEN A GIRL WALKS IN WITH AN...’
It's best to do this enthusiastically and shake a little to the beat to look more convincing. Also, it would be ideal to turn your attention back to whatever you were doing and pretend you are completely oblivious to their stares.
Alternatively, you could just set yourself on fire. Or fake a heart attack. Whichever works fine.
