Rather awkward and amusing events seem to be occuring quite often in my life as of late.

Situation #1: Awkward
Kate and a boy are heading toward the same table in the Quad.
KATE: Are you going to sit there?
HIM: Um, yeah, but we can share.
KATE: (jokingly) Well, it's kind of an unwritten rule that people don't share tables. Ha ha.
HIM: (uncomfortable, not understanding it was a joke) Well...uh...you can sit there if you want.
KATE: (gives up on trying to be witty) Ok.

Situation #2: Awkward, yet Amusing
Kate is biking on campus. Her water bottle falls out of backpack, the lid comes off and sprays all over the ground. She stops her bike, walks over to get the bottle, and in doing so knocks over her bike. Innocent bystander (small Asian girl) compassionately comes over and lifts up bike for Kate.
KATE: Thank you!
(Kate accidentally splashes water on innocent bystander in the process of taking hold of the bike. )
