Is bumping into PDA in the office/workplace considered awkward universally? Or is it just in my country? You know, when you enter the office with lots of work in your mind, yet… you open the door and saw your co-workers kissing and… you’re considering whether to keep walking and interfere.
When your family comes over to visit you & your neighbor has super loud sex… And your dad asks if they have a cat next door…
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
When somebody is inside the restroom and you’re rushing to poop 🙂
Oh yeah.. definitely.

The awkward moment when you speak in a crowd, but no one listens and you slow down your speach while whispering.
