11. Automatically responding with “yeah, wait what” whenever you don’t hear something
Sometimes, when you don’t hear something someone says, you try to play if off like you did. Because admitting you’re a little deaf is tres embarrassing. But then a second later, you realize this could go very, very wrong. What if it’s important information? What if “yeah” is not the appropriate response? So you ask them what they said and your brain cringes in despair.
12. Being the last person to get your food when you’re with a large group of friends at a restaurant
And half of them are trying to be polite, good people who will wait for their friend to get their meal, and the other half are slowly picking at their French fries before they get cold and limp. “Go ahead guys, it’s not a big deal. I’ll just eat these bread crumbs,” you say, as you dip crouton-sized morsels of free bread into the leftover butter on your appetizer plate.
13. Choking at any time
The worst is when you’re talk to someone you don’t know very well, and all of a sudden you start choking on spit or some pulp from your orange juice. Maybe it’s not necessary to be embarrassed right at this moment, when you’re barely clinging to life (okay, that’s dramatic but still), but awkward people cannot help it. We feel weird about almost dying.
