Hmm, I was wondering, do crickets chirp?

Crickets rub their wings together and it makes that noise. But it’s called chirping, yes.

I don’t know why I say “*crickets*” and not “*chirping*” because I never say “*cat*” when I mean meow or “*truck*” when I mean horns honking…
This is where my brain goes.

Hmm, what kind of sound would a socially awkward person make?

~cough~

I’m kind of expecting this thread to stop here because no one can think of anything else to say.

I don’t like cranberries.

I’m not a big fan either, unless you mix them in a banana smoothie.

I’ve murdered so many threads that I’m still self-conscious about posting places, even stuff like Facebook comments.

I think each awkward person probably has their own awkward sound. Mine is either picking at my nails or cracking my knuckles. Or playing with my earrings.

Continuing the cranberry chat: I’ve never really been a cranberry person. I think I had a jello fruit salad at Thanksgiving a couple years ago with cranberries in it . . but that’s about it.

@elferdave You killed this thread!.. for 12 hours.

@elferdave You do realize I was the Sith. The leader of the dark side, killing threads whenever I please. I was planning on making a bot that automatically posts awkward… posts. I called it, the deathpost!

AWKWARD CONVERSATION TURTLE! I mean….. uh yeah.

anyways, @glade well, you you might be able to kill threads temporarily, but when I’m around, your posts wished they had died so I could revive them. Because I revive threads, oh yeah. By the Avree-viver. Obviously.

*whispers* I’m going to pretend that ^^ made sense and no one noticed it didn’t…… *looks around… skips away*

I have faith in our awkward posting abilities to take down even the Teenagers Unite thread. Eventually.

The odder, the better. I do believe. Though It could depend on the circumstances.

Well, um *clearsthroat*… I- uh, *abnormallyloudswallow**20knucklecracks*… I’ve also, uh, been *playswithfacialhair**avoidseyecontact*… Hi.

*awkward wave* Hello. Um, I was just… *waves hand vaguely* out. But I am back and thought I would stop by and… yeah. Hi. *shuffles feet*

Excellent. I have created a small group of dedicated, socially awkward nerds to take down the TNU thread. I’ve advised a way to take it down, from the inside. Unfortunately, I am too old to enter the depths of TNU. I’ll stick out like a sore thumb, bringing uo topics of ponies and video games. No, we need someone younger. Who volunteers for this suicide mission. Free muffins for that brave soul.

@glade Just what sort of muffins are we talking about here? They need to be really, really good muffins.

@glade Hmmm… you drive a hard bargain. I might be convinced to infiltrate TNU for these muffins of which you speak…

I’m going to need proof that the muffins exist.
I am invoking the age-old “pics or it didn’t happen” rule.

Ahh social awkwardness, how easy my life would be without you… I find this thread so funny because I seem to always be the one who writes the last comment and zaps the whole conversation… I’m glad I’m not alone in this. : D

How long does it need to be between posts for it to be a successful zap?

ZAP SUCCESSFUL.

Um, yeah. So . . um . . bye.

Did it die again? Is anyone still here? *looks around empty room* *wanders off*

@glade In most contexts, that would be extremely awkward to say. So it fits on this thread nicely, I suppose.

I feel like this could be a self-help group for socially awkward people.

Hello, my name is Becky and I am socially awkward.
…Followed by a chorus of monotone voices saying hello back, and then followed by awkward silence for the next 55 minutes of the meeting. Yeah, nevermind. Wouldn’t work.
