That Awkward Moment

‘That awkward moment when you can’t read your own handwriting’ ‘That awkward moment when it’s raining’ ‘That awkward moment when there is food in your fridge’ ‘That awkward moment when you turn off the light and it becomes dark’ ‘That awkward moment when you flip your hair and boys don’t get overwhelmed’. I just got on twitter (surprise) and as usual I’m being bombarded with ‘That awkward moment..’ tweets. These tweets and the word  ‘awkward’ in general are really starting to get to me, I cant see them anymore without going crazy.

The problem with these tweets is that most of them aren’t even awkward or even remotely funny at all. People seem to feel the need too put ‘That awkward moment..’ in front of everything they say, but why? It almost seems like putting ‘That awkward moment..’ in front of very standard situations makes them funny. Well no, it only makes me want to slap you in the face.

Not all ‘That awkward moment..’ tweets are bad, some are actually quite funny, but the horrible and annoying ‘That awkward moment..’ tweets kind of ruined it for the good ones. I’ve come to the point where I don’t even read tweets that start with ‘That awkward..’ anymore, I just can’t see these words anymore without feeling the need to throw something through my screen. People ruined a good thing by overusing it, as usual.

I don’t know when this trend started and who started it, but if I ever come across that person I might have to subtly tell him/her how he/she ruined awkward moments. Then that person can continue to tweet what an awkward moment it was when someone didn’t like all the awkward moments.
