Most people avoid awkwardness or awkward situations because they make them feel uncomfortable. But some people like to create awkward and cringy situations on purpose. When that interaction is observed from a distance, most of the time it will be perceived as funny.
So, if you are one of those people who love or would like to experiment with awkwardness, share what would be the funniest approach to a stranger. I myself have been walking up and asking: “what is your favorite flavor of hair” – but it’s starting to get old…
#1
Show a photo of yourself and ask “Excuse me, have you seen this person?”
#2
“Excuse me, what year is this?” When the person tells you, respond “It works! My machine really works!!”
#3
I’ve always wanted to run up to a complete stranger in hysterics and yell, “Whatever you do, DO NOT look at their eyes!” and run away. I don’t know who the “their” is referring to, and neither does the stranger. I just wanna cause unnecessary stress because I’m a menace.
#4
Sit on a park bench and wait for people to sit with you. “It’s done. Do you have the money?” – Not original from me; saw it either on YT, Pinterest, or BP.
#5
Sometimes I imagine myself asking a stranger, “Hey, whatever song you have in your head right now, sing it out loud!”
And then they break into the whole song and dance, musical style haha.
Never actually dared to, though.
#6
Do you like pet chickens?
I normally ask this and they are confused and then say they like to eat chicken, but I say back “Do you like living, walking, breathing chickens?” And then they get creeped out.
#7
I know this is old, but I’ve always loved the idea of asking a stranger who says anything to me, “Can you see me?” in a panicky voice and run away.
#8
Look at the person, gasp dramatically, and run away.
#9
Have you seen my sanity? i LeFt It InSiDe An OrAnGe.
#10
Did you remember to hide the body?
#11
On a scale of 1-10, what is your favorite color of the alphabet? (Mine’s green)
#12
Run up to somebody, yell, “Do you see them?!? You don’t? oh… oh! that means they’re GONE! GONE, I TELL YOU!!!!” Then run away.
You can also yell, “Marco!” at a group of strangers at the store.
#13
Are you a whale person or a chicken person?
#14
I think that telling a stranger “don’t be scared” with a calm voice and walking away will completely shatter their mind.
#15
This happened to my friend when she told a girl she liked her shirt, the girl replied: “I like your face”. Lol, we never let my friend forget that day.
#16
*Hug them and say* “Whatever you do, when I let go, RUN! They are here for you!”
#17
Assuming you’re outside, ask if they know where the waiting room is. Or the front desk. ‘Do you work here?’ – is a good one as well.
#18
*yell in their face* DID YOU KNOW THAT CHICKENS ARE MADE OUT OF CHICKEN?
#19
If soap smells good but tastes bad, does that mean poop smells bad, BUT TASTES GOOD?! Asking for a friend.
#20
Once I asked a stranger what my own phone number was. No idea why.
#21
What are you doing here? Gasp and run away.
#22
Jog up to a person you know the name of and say: “XXX, do you still want the 14,275,208 live ants that you ordered? You said you needed to make ketchup for your restaurant” while holding a bag.
#23
Hey there… Hi there… I’m Lost. Have you seen me wandering around here before?
With a piece of tape or a name tag sticker on the front of my shirt that says:
“If Found, PLEASE CALL (insert random friend/family member phone number) and report Missing IMMEDIATELY!” 😜
#24
Did you do it/did you hide it?
#25
What’s the date? NO! WHAT YEAR IS IT????
#26
“Could you be a witness to my wedding?”
-Max Fosh.
#27
Can I have a moment of your time to talk about our lord and savior etc. (I’m an atheist 😑)
#28
Is there a phone booth around here? SoMebODy’s In tRoUblE!
#29
Can I borrow some cash/your card? Not only is that weird, it’s f****d up.
