You know what is awkward? Many things. I'll post on this topic often. It's the problem with being a counselor. You're constantly in meta-analysis mode. The other problem with being a counselor, you say 'meta' alot.
Back to the topic at hand. When someone makes a joke about a personality trait they don't believe they have, but they actually do - that's awkward.
In light of the fact that I just commented on this social phenomenon, I'd like to state, for the record, that I, myself, am awkward in various social situations. I know this about myself. I try to only make fun of myself in a self-deprecating way, thus avoiding the awkward situation mentioned above. And also, I try to keep some friends around who are willing to make fun of me. If you'd like to apply, let me know.
