when people are this awkward in life they need a new direction to get themselves to be natural with others. Too many people worry about what other people think about them. It's easier said than done but if you just focus on your happiness and positivity then the rest just falls into place. People try too hard and feel that they HAVE to have relationships and often force it on themselves too early. Life will tell you when you are ready and you will know it as will the other person.
@QuarterMasterGaming well that's kind of a cool comment. are you talking about focusing on happiness as a way of bailing yourself out of the awkward moment, or focusing on happiness as a general mindset that will help you be more natural throughout? I dont know. It seems finding a source of spontaneity would really help here. def more spontaneous when I am happy. I think self consciousness can somehow block that happy flow in though.
@schmirk2 in other words if you are socially awkward chances are you are insecure. If you are insecure then you need to focus on positivity and acceptance of yourself. Don't try to be "special" to that other person and just be yourself because once you are happy with yourself you will find that you are indeed special and worthy of friendship or even more.
he forgot to put in the part of the blind date when your stomach makes a loud noise during an awkward silence and you sound like a beast from the depth of hell...
i really hate it when people ruin great lines of a dialogue by quoting them as a comment. Perhaps even worse are the people who thumbs up those comments, thereby allowing it to be displayed as a "Top Comment". So that's what I think. kbye
I'm stoned, I like to watch this with my friends.. when we're stoned. This sort of shit is crazy, brothers.. and sisters with anxiety. LMAO AMERICANS.
@lastsaneman19 Wow. You are actually judging my grammar and punctuation in an attempt to generate "thumbs up"? How about you at least try to utilize "semi-colons" (;) instead of tossing in the dashes ( - ) in a sad attempt to express your thoughts through a shitty little sentence. Thank you; Come again you Jack ass.
This is why I found that Holocaust movie interesting... did your grandparents fight in the war? That fact about red meat is fascinating! wat should we do to impve public health? stop eating this delicous lobster??yeahright! haha. whats your heritage? do you know much about it? have you traveled? tell me about that. where would you like to travel? favorate nighlife spot around town? music? do you play any? much of a beer drinker? wino? whered you go to school? BE INTERESTED IN THE OTHER PERSON
ahem. so. Where are you from? what got you into computers? hows the company doing? do you like your job? this restrant is/ is not romantic because... Do u liek lobster? do you leik mudkipz? if you dont mind, what happened to your parents? where did you grow up? what do you think about the president? what do you think about life? God? Satan? your hair looks great! howdjyu do it? We knoweach other thrwough this mutual friend-whered u meet them? what kind of drinks do you like? do you drink?
this reminds me of my relationship with my last girlfriend. most boring human being on the fucking planet.... HUGE ass though... in a good way... kinda.
@martinezmarcio1 she was extremely tight, i could barely get it in, and when i did she said that it hurt really bad, so we stopped.... and then we watched Holes. :P
@gamegod1998 Go to the BEST Tasting, Retaurant around... and buy Sooo muchh food that you dont get time to even breath let alone talk... Great Food=no small talk..
This is nothing like Rejected, but it is still funny as hell. People should stop comparing the two; Rejected's humor is rather surreal, while Lily and Jim's humor stems for the dialogue and awkard situations. What they say is a little exaggerated, but there's still a sense of reality in the short. Rather down to earth, if I do say so myself.
