20 People’s Super Awkward Day Stories

A recent string of unfortunate events has left a trail of awkwardness in their wake. From acquiring superpowers to getting stuck with a soggy coffee, these individuals’ days took an unexpected turn for the worse.

A person may or may not have acquired super powers, but one thing’s for sure – they’ll need some serious napkins to clean up the mess. Meanwhile, another individual is about to face their own Chipotle crisis, as they rummage through every single napkin in their center console.

Someone else’s backseat just got a fresh coat of paint, leaving onlookers wondering what happened to the old design. The victim of this makeover didn’t fare much better, however – they only got one bean in their meal.

It appears that some people have an inordinate amount of luck when it comes to removing unwanted records from their past. However, for others, such as those who tried to eat a pizza with a suspiciously melted crust, the process is anything but smooth.

A nightmare of epic proportions took place when someone had to deal with a difficult situation on their daily commute. On the bright side, they really needed to make it to the 5th floor – hopefully, their efforts paid off.

Food critics might have something to say about one person’s lobster cake experience, which could be best described as lacking in, well, substance. Yet another individual made a new acquaintance while carrying out some private business, but let’s just say they won’t be winning any awards for subtlety anytime soon.

Someone else’s non-stick pan has seen better days – or rather, it’s back to its stick-y self. A stroke of bad luck left one person with their phone – and by luck, we mean a combination of misfortune and circumstance. Those who can spot the telltale signs of Big Carrot’s gaslighting tactics might recognize a friend in this individual.

The victim of this traumatic experience won’t soon forget what happened to them, as it has left an indelible mark on their psyche. In other news, someone’s floor just got utterly annihilated – whether intentionally or not remains to be seen.

In the world of coffee aficionados, a delightful surprise turned out to be nothing more than sludge for this poor soul. One person took matters into their own hands by searching high and low for Schrödinger’s drill, only to come up empty-handed. For another, the experience involved a nice, relaxing bath in the trash – because that’s exactly what they needed.

Last but not least, someone got an unexpected souvenir from Ramesses IV’s tomb: a thumbtack stuck firmly between their toes. As Top CommenterRe noted, using the wrong type of floormat can lead to some serious mishaps – perhaps this individual will learn from their mistake and stick with the right tool next time around.
